[The Gear turns on to show Rika holding up an Umbreon so that it's facing the camera.]

Prince evolved last night. He's done very well so far, but it's exciting to see him evolve.

[Rika smiles at the Umbreon before addressing the Gear again.] I would like to thank everyone who gave me presents for Christmas. I hope everyone had a good holiday and enjoyed spending time with friends and family. This has been my second Christmas here, and it was just as fun this year as it was last year.

[As Rika takes a breath to say something else, her Umbreon suddenly leaps from her arms and runs out of sight before Rika can move after him. She sighs and a tiny pout has replaced her smile.] Mii... He's still very excited about evolving so he's very energetic right now. I think he wants me to play hide-and-seek with him. I wish he wouldn't decide to play in a city, though.

I suppose it's time to start looking for him. [And with that, Rika cuts the feed.]

(ooc: This is late, but here are Rika's Christmas gifts! They would have been delivered to everyone on Christmas day.)

[Athrun's face appears on the feed, but he's wearing some strikingly different clothes. In fact, they look like a uniform of some sort. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/HurricaneChris/Gundam/AdmiralAthrunZala.jpg)]

Hey, do you need a hand finding him?

[OoC: Also, because I fail and totally forgot people on Athrun's list -- Athrun went and bought Rika a down winter coat. Sorry about that!]

Hello, Athrun. I think I could use some help, if you wouldn't mind.

[She looks at him for a moment, noticing the change in clothes.]

Have you worn those clothes here before?

[shieldofjustice.livejournal.com]

Of course. We can cover more ground with the two of us.

...Oh, these? No, I got these on Christmas. They were my gift from back home.

Glad you had fun. This place can be a pain sometimes, but holidays almost always work out.

[Other than, well, Halloween.

He smirks, though, watching the Umbreon for a moment.]

And an Umbreon, huh? At least yours has a better temper than Shade.

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

They really do. I hope you had a good time as well.

Mii... Sometimes I think this is almost as bad as him having a temper though. It takes a while to find him. What did yours do?

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

She's violent, sadistic, and a total snob.

[Not as bad as Terror, of course, but she's still a feisty little critter.]

Uu-! Maria wants to play hide and seek too, want to play!

[ she giggles. ]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Mii! I'm sure Prince would love to play hide-and-seek with you.

[uuing]

Where is Prince right now, in what town..? Maria thinks she can't leave Goldenrod, but as long as it's there, Maria can play a game with Prince, uu-.

Ah, another Umbreon. They've seemed to be rather popular this year.

[A freckled Eevee peers into the screen.]

video

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Really?

[She waves at the Eevee on the screen.] Are you planning on having yours evolve into one as well?

Re: video

[usednastyplot.livejournal.com]

I'm still debating what I should evolve her into.

[The Eevee waggles its ears happily and starts running around a much larger Eevee that's having a nap on its trainers lap.]

An Umbreon does seem to have reason for being a popular choice, so I shall consider it.

[combat_butler]

--ah, he evolved into an Umbreon? I should give him a proper introduction to Ayu...

[video]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

You should. I think they would enjoy playing together.

[video]

[combat_butler]

Mm... Then the next time I have her on hand, I'll do just that! ... Maybe I should include Espoir and their son as well...

Second Christmas here? Damn.

... And yeah, you might wanna start now while it'd still be easy.

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Yes. I've been here since the June before last.

[She lets out a small sigh.] Mii... Hopefully he didn't choose a good hiding place this time.

[cynicizing.livejournal.com]

Think you're ever gonna return home at this rate?

... 'This time'?

Congrats on having your pokémon evolve!

[Even if she was a bit, well, not thrilled with what that pokémon looked like. It was definitely too... well, dark for her tastes.]

What did he evolve from?

Video

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

He used to be an Eevee.

[youhavemybat.livejournal.com]

Eh? Are you looking for someone, Rika-chan?

[Action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

[She nods.]

Mii... I'm looking for Prince. He wants to play hide-and-seek.

Congrats on evolving little Prince, hehe. How adorable to be jumping around like that.

Hauu, Rika-chan~~~

Rena also thanks you for the gift. They're wonderful!

_{[ Also Rena will send off a little Vulpix hat~ ]}

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

It is adorable, isn't it?

Mii! I'm glad you liked them.

[And Rika will love it♥]

Congratulations regarding Prince's evolution, Rika! Where might you be right now? I'm afraid I've yet to figure out this delivery system, so I may need to give you your gift in person, if I may.
