009 [action/video]

[complexrestart]

[The video feed turns on and is focused on a Drifblim before the Gear is turned towards Rika, who grins. In the background is the entrance to Azalea.] Guardian evolved! He's now a Drifblim! [She sounds excited as she turns the video back onto the pokémon.] He's the first one on my team to evolve. [She takes a breath to say something else, but before she has the chance to, a bright light from somewhere offscreen begins to flood the video feed.]

[Rika hands off the Gear to her Mime Jr as she goes to inspect the light, which is emanating from the location her Magikarp was at only a few seconds ago. Once the light dies down, the Magikarp is now replaced with a Gyarados, and a surprised Rika looking up at it.] You evolved too? [The Gyarados lets out a roar in confirmation before it lunges forward to tackle Rika.]

[The video feed promptly shuts off as the Mime Jr discards the Gear, rushing to its trainer's side.]

[Before anything can happen, her Drifblim and Mime Jr grab her and get her out of the way.] ... Mii.

[ she's already running forward to put herself between the little girl and the Gyarados, just in case. ] Are you all right?

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

[She looks a little dazed, but fine.] Yes. Thank you.

[ turning to the Gyarados, then. ]

What were you thinking? You should have been more aware of your size, unless you were intending to seriously injure her!

[action]

[At the scolding, the Gyarados bends his head down. Rika walks up to it and pats it on the head.] You do need to be more aware of your size. I know you were just playing, but you have to be more careful now. You're much bigger than you were as a Magikarp.

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

Just keep that in mind, and you should be fine.

[The Gyarados nudges Rika with its head, but ends up knocking her back a little. She only laughs.] See what I mean? You need to watch out more!

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

It looks like his intentions are good, at least.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

They are. He just likes to play.

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

He's just a little too big for it.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

[She nods.] He'll just have to find ways so that he can play without being a danger to others.

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

That being said, a double evolution's very impressive!

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

It is, isn't it?

I think that their levels just happened to be timed that way.

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

Your Mime Jr. might be evolving soon, too.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Really? Has yours evolved yet?

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

Back before Union Cave, actually.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Can I see him now?

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

[ in response, she releases a Mr. Mime. ]

He's called a Mr. Mime. He's too big to carry around now, though.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Ah, he grew a lot! Is he much stronger now?

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

Very. His hard work paid off.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Good job, Mr. Mime! [She pats him on the head.]

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

Miiiiime! [ this pleases Pierrot, who will dip into a polite bow. ]

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Ah, he's really polite!

[action]

[primaduelerina.livejournal.com]

He always was pretty serious for a clown.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

That's true! He seemed to take his training very seriously!
