femininity | 1st live [video/action]

[ 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. ]

Is there a copy of it anywhere? I want to see it.

[ azusa being beautiful... never gets old.

...

why cruel johto why!! ]

Hmmm... I'm not sure, really... I think it should still be airing...? Maybe if you watch a few Johto dramas you'll see it...

Alright! I'll make sure to watch some right away. [ the true reason she and ryo don't leave new bark town the first day, and are still here when chihaya and ami appear... ]

I recommend Days of our Mons~ It's very interesting. *in that it involves pokemon having crazy relationships just as much as the human actors.*

I'll write that down. [ and quite dutifully, she pulls some paper out of her bag to do that. ] It's good that you know so much stuff already. [ because this is clearly important advice she needs to succeed here. ]

Uhuhu~ I'm quite pleased that I can pass it on to you. *and she sees absolutely nothing wrong with this. who would, geez.*

It'd take me forever to figure out this stuff on my own! [ and then where would she be.

...

somewhere bad. ]

Oh, I'm sure you would pick it up faster than I did~

*Not including how long it took her to get from point a to point b.*

[ now that azusa mentions it, makoto's a little surprised that she managed to pick it all up.

...

only a little though. ]

I'll work my hardest to catch up! It's the least I can do, after getting here so late.

*even she can pick things up when given enough time... ignoring the fact her first month here was largely clueless.*

Good luck, Makoto-chan~! I'll be cheering for you from afar~

You too! I'll be cheering for you from up close!

[ oh, wait, no, that's kind of impossible... ]

Or from afar too, maybe...
