1st live [video/action] - new bark town

[ as the device's screen turns on, you're treated to the sight of two ralts. they don't seem to be doing anything in particular, but that's enough to inspire makoto to pull out of her device. this thing takes pictures, right? she's not entirely sure, but if it's a phone, it's gotta have that kind of function!

so while she fiddles with her device, inadvertently turning it on, she calls out to another person. ]

Hey, Ryo! Ryo! Look! They're cute, aren't they?

[Another voice gives a light giggle at Makoto's excitement. When she's excited like this, even Ryo can't stay worried about their predicament!]

You really like them, don't you Makoto-san...? Though, to be honest, I think they're more "cool" than "cute".

Really? [ no, they definitely look cute to her. she stares a bit longer, before quietly deciding to herself that they're definitely more "cute" than "cool". but more importantly... ]

Oh! I think this is recording. [ uh... whoops? she turns her device so it's facing ryo, figuring they should give their audience something more than two cute pokemon rolling around. ] Um... quick, say something!

Eh?! Why me?!

[Ryo's shocked face takes up the entire screen. What do?! All right, back up back up... Okay, much better. Well, "something" was kinda vague, and arguing with Makoto is something Ryo doesn't want to do, so... A greeting, maybe? That's pretty basic. Time to flash a bright smile!]

Umm... H-How do you do? I'm Ryo Akizuki. I'm an idol from 876 Productions, though I don't think it really matters right now... With me, is, um... [Ryo tries to discreetly whisper, though it's pretty audible.] Makoto-san, maybe you should say something too?

[ at those words, maktoo turns the camera around so that she's the one on screen now. ]

I'm Makoto Kikuchi, from 765 Production! If I have any fans here, I don't mind giving autographs! [ she laughs a bit as she says it, making clear that she's just joking. she's hardly that popular yet. ] But anyways... it's nice to meet you!

[ she nods, satisfied by the message, before turning back to Ryo. she thinks the message has ended now, though obviously it hasn't... ]

That was good, right?

[Ryo nods, satisfied.]

Yes! You're amazing as always. [Though anything Makoto does is amazing to Ryo---] Hm? It looks like... you might have left it on.

Eh? No, I made sure I... ack, you're right!

[ makoto fumbles around with the device a bit before finally, this time successfully, turning it off. ]

Uu-, the two of you are.. idols..? [ not that Maria generally paid a lot of attention to them back home, oops.. but it's still pretty amazing apparently since she seems cheerful. ]

Welcome to Johto, kyakyakya! Maria is Maria, Maria Ushiromiya, uu-! And Maria thinks it's cute, not cool..!

Eheh, we're just starting out though, so it's not really that impressive. [ well, it actually has been some time now, but neither of them has really gotten their big break. ]

Maria, huh? It's nice to meet you, Maria! [ even if that laugh was a little odd. ] Oh, but you agree with me, huh? [ that cheers her up, which is obvious as her face lights up a bit. ] Exactly! There's no way to look at them without thinking "cute".

Of course Maria agrees, uu-! [ more giggling. ] It's cute, definitely cute! And Maria has seen a lot of cute things, so she knows them when she sees them for sure!

Right! [ some vigorous nodding. ] If Maria's seen a lot of cute things... does that mean she's seen a lot of cute Pokemon? Has she been here a long time?

Maria's been here for.. uu-.. [ here she's probably trying to count but somewhat.. failing.. so she just gives up. ] A long time, that's right! It's been more than a year!

And because Maria's been here so long, she has a who-le lot of cute Pokémon!

More than a year? [ that tells her all she needs to know anyway. ] That's a really long time... [ Deep Insights™ by Makoto Kikuchi. ]

Can you show me some?

[ there's a nod at that last part and for a moment she little girl puts down the Pokégear, disappearing from the screen.. only to return a few moments later with a tiny Eevee in her arms. ]

This is one of Maria's new Johto friends, uu-! His name is Abel, he's been with Maria for a while now.

[ makoto just nods emphatically, staring at her screen closely. ]

Abel, huh? It's nice to meet you too! [ she's slowly starting to realize that pretty much all pokemon are cute... ]

[ the Eevee just.. squeaks a little.. it doesn't really like attention very much, and especially not the camera, but Maria makes up for its lack of enthusiasm. ]

Uu-, Maria's sure Abel is happy to meet Makoto too! It's the best when everyone can be friends, rig--

[ woops, camera is being jacked by a Misdreavus floating right in front of it making both silly and scary faces, Maria's voice just calls out from the background. ]

Tomoyo, stop that..! Uu-, Maria was talking to someone!

[ makoto doesn't really seem to notice either way... ]

Oh, another one!

[ she also seems completely oblivious to maria's sudden plight. ]

[ the Misdreavus is completely happy with all this attention either way, and so she'll continue her show of making faces.. until she's shooed to the side by Maria. ]

Uu-.. Sorry, Tomoyo can be a mischievous kid. Won't even listen to Maria sometimes..

She sounds like a lot of trouble for you...

[ though makoto still seems more entertained than anything else. ]

But you've gotta take care of her anyway, right?

Of course.. Maria will always take care of Tomoyo, uu-. That's what friends are for, right?

.. [ realisation.. ] Uu-! That means Maria and Makoto can become friends too now!
