Victory Road Sample: thoughts on being on the road again, with a soft little son.
[So, hey. Laguna's been resting off his Deino bites for a bit - but his Pokemon have been busy, it seems. Why didn't he message on the day? Well, the eggs were hidden for a bit. It was really Primo who found them...
So. It's audio time! Laguna doesn't wanna show off his injuries, his bandaged hand. They've been nesting for a few days - the eggs, I mean.]
Hey! It's been a while, huh? It's been busy over here - y'know, with things. [With Clem gone... to be honest, Laguna has been distracting himself with this world. Trying to find something to do...] But, well, I've got some eggs here. Let's see... I've got Blitzle, Buneary, Dunsparce, Eevee, Farfetch'd, Frillish, Gligar, Joltik, Litwick, Onix, Rotom, Snover and Wooper...? I think that's what those eggs are.
[A pause, as he shifts around in his room a little - he's putting an egg aside, an Eevee.]
And my friend Lee - he's got some eggs here too. Rufflet and Taillow. If you'd like to pick some up, Boco and Riley are free t'flee. Or I can send them though the PC - whatever works!
While I'm here, though - what sort of places d'you like in Johto? I'm thinking of taking a trip around the place.
[laguna no you're gonna get lost.
His voice is slightly trembling, though - he really failed Clem, huh? Can't show her the world. The feed ends, and soon there's an attachment - a picture of the eggs, and the prices. As for what he's gonna be doing? He's got a herd of Eevee to help out with.
OOC: Yes, he will sell to the new newbies! :3 There's still plenty of eggs left.]

[Plain text:
Help! I don't know where I am, but there's a lot of Charizard - I mean, even all my Pokemon have become them!
That's not how evolution goes, right? Not everything is a Charizard. I didn't even have Marcello with me!
Anyway, I won't really know where I am...
It's a cold cavern, and it took Spark this long to get stuff working.
Man, uh... it's also pretty dark down here?
Hey, is that another--

As the text ends, Laguna's kind of got another Charizard 'M looking him over, with a snarl... before giving a grumble, and walking past him.
Oh, Seafoam Islands. As it passes, though, Laguna's using his dim PokeGear light to look at what he's picked up... a certain Crystal. He doesn't have any other Pokemon with him... man, he hopes his girls are okay. Laguna sighs - he's gotta get to the surface.
But wait. Is that a Pokemon over there... a non-Charizard? Replies will come as Laguna looks it over.]

[Why, hello, network. Laguna was awoken early today... by a pile of Moombas falling on him. It was weird. But - hey, this is pretty cool! The music? Not so much.]
So, uh...
[The creatures are darting around on the screen, around Laguna - some of them scratching themselves, some of them licking Pokemon (spoilers: Ragnarok the Servine looks pretty annoyed, twitching his tail over and over, and letting out a deep hiss) and Laguna both - and some of them repeating Laguna's name, over and over. Laguna's got a pretty big smile.]
It's been ages since I've seen these guys - man, the last time I saw them, it was a pretty exciting time. I should tell you guys about it sometime! But - how'd they get here? Last thing I knew, I was settlin' down in Olivine...
[Wait. Laguna doesn't know where he is, either. Where is he? Well, it's up to you.]
Well, might as well see where I am. Hey - anybody around here?
[As Laguna stood, he had a few Moomba clunging to him. What's that with him as well...? Yes, he has re-gotten his gun, and he's got it secure on his person.]

[So. Laguna has just gotten back from getting another badge, and was just heading to his room, ready to record and ask a question which has been on his mind. So, the video pops on to Laguna opening his door, his Dragonair giving a few excited cries...
And then eggs. Lots of eggs are in the room, a messy looking Zoroark trying to hide them away so Poppa Laguna isn't angry. The video clicks off again.
About an hour later, the video is back on! Laguna's got a notepad, looking over the eggs.]
I think that's all of them, guys? [He says, with a bit of a chuckle.] Man, didn't believe you'd go this fast after I became a breeder.
[And then he turns to the camera - being possessed by your friendly Spark the Rotom, of course. That's why it's slightly shakey.]
Anyway, seems I've got a lot of eggs here. I'd like to take care of all of them, but I can't. I mean, it'd sure be nice, but I've heard of some sort of limit on the amount of Pokemon you can get?
So... I guess it'd make sense to sell them. My Pokemon've helped me identify them a little, so... I think the attached list is accurate. I'll send them anywhere - I just want them to have good homes, you know? If you have trouble payin' for them, I can send them for cheaper.
Hey, also - I've got a bit of a question. What sort of Pokemon do you guys look out for? Are you choosing them for looks, or power, or... well, it's just something I've been wondering. I mean, those Gym Leaders all just choose a type and stick with it. Don't think I've seen many people like that from us 'outsiders', though.

((For people who just came inalso lee he'll charge you the newbie amount because haha, Laguna will give them a discount. For them, they can get any of the eggs for 500 Poke! [well only one per person to keep it fair--]))

((For people who just came in
[It's near sunset, when a nicely-formatted text message comes though.
However, it's not Laguna texting. Rather, it's a combination of Ragnarok (wanting to talk with humans, but not knowing how to read), Spark (knowing how to write and likes Ragnarok) and Layla (making sure Spark doesn't insert too much of himself, making sure that Ragnarok has the messages read to him instead of Spark taking control.) They've set themselves up in a tree in Violet City.
Not that it's obvious, mind you - well, it'd be obvious if you actually read it and joined it with the ID - Laguna does not think like this. But something big has been on Ragnaroks mind, after the dropmons who joined the team.]
[Though, replies will take quite a while because l-lol three Pokemon are doing this.]

Others vanish. It's a part of life here in Johto.
It must hurt everybody to grow such attachment to others, when they merely vanish from our lives without a simple goodbye. But that is all of our fates, no matter what way you look at it.
Why do you grow so attached, if that's the case?[Though, replies will take quite a while because l-lol three Pokemon are doing this.]
[Man, travelling though the storms, snow and thunder might not have been the best idea - this video opens with Laguna in the Pokemon Center, his jacket off, his Pokemon around him - mostly his Larvesta now snuggled nearby.
Well, to be fair, his Servine isn't around him. There's actually a purpose to this video, but not at first. At first, Laguna's got a HM and he's trying it out on all the Pokemon he can. He would have done it when he won the badge, but he was busy getting Whitney happy and then getting to that Flora girl. As the video turns on, he's got it to a Gallade, who's barely stating still! Primo the shiny Wooper is on his lap at the time, too, bundled in his scarf.]
Alright, let's get this Rock Smash onto you... there y'are, Nia!
[The Gallade gives a bit of a leap and cheer in the air, before standing aside.] Now, who's next...
[Laguna presses the button on yet another Pokeball, and out comes... a Venusaur, who stands tall, even though it clearly looks distressed.]
Hey, when did I get this one?
[Laguna gives a bit of a frown, and places a hand to it. The Venusaur lets out a low grumble, before he tries placing the HM to it. A slight ding, and it's learned, the Venusaur shaking a little, before laying down.]
Well - you were in my PC, right? Guess that means your trainer vanished. I've got another like you - she was a Ralts, but now she's a pretty nice Gardevoir.
[The Venusaur looks from Laguna to the ground again. Laguna's face seems to have grown... softer? As he talks.]
As long as they're gone - that makes us trainer and Pokemon, right? I'll take care of you. I promise.
[...And then he faces the camera he set up!]
Anyway, I made it to Ecruteak - it was pretty hard on my team, so I guess we'll be resting here for a while. Sure, Goldenrod was pretty nice - wonder if Flora's gotten here yet? Are you in town, or should I want f'you here?
[He's now stroking the plantbeast, as he's thinking.]
What sort of places are there around here, anyway? I mean, all of us are gonna be getting a rest for the rest of today -- hey! [That 'hey'? Oh, just Moomba the Arcanine starting to nuzzle as well. Laguna laughs, as the video times out. He's gonna go exploring Ecruteak tomorrow, that's f'sure.]

[So, in the morning, Laguna went to the National Park. Why? Well... click the cut to see!
( Click for Valentines Comic! )
It's sundown, and Laguna's out and about in Goldenrod, before heading towards the garden party. But he's actually got a quick question - so quick, he's doing a text! Also feel free to bump into him.]

So, hey, listen. Can Pokemon pick up on English - you know, learn it themselves? It'd make it easier talking with them - I've got psychic-types, sure, but they don't always want to translate![The video begins, with Laguna with two eggs with him. Seriously. Two more are also coming. Laguna why.
But really, there's a whole crowd of Pokemon around him - two Ralts playing Triple Triad, a sad little shiny Wooper with a Butterfree patting it on the head - but what's important is that his Shiny Munna is there, nomming on the air once more. He's just kind of laying there - the video was turned on by Alex the Zorua. Laguna knows it's on, but he's just thinking to himself.
Out loud.
Why's he getting it recorded, then? In case he gets amnesia once more, duh.]
Let me go though this again - it's still kinda confusing.
[The Munna nods, as it nibbles, trying to bring out more memories for daddy.]
Th' six of us - Vaan, Yuna, Kain, Tifa, Light and me - we're dead. Can't really believe it - but it's the last thing which happened there. And I was doing dangerous things at home... just hope she's okay. Can't really accept it, though. I don't want to be dead.
[Siigh. Laguna looks upwards a bit. He doesn't feel like this often... maybe he should get on the road. He's getting that urge.]
At least that gives me a reason to relax a bit more. Can't worry too much about home when I might not even have one to go to. But there's still all that stuff going on there...
[But now, he's gonna turn and ask a question gasp now you know it wasn't accidental.]
What sort of levels should I be looking at for the gym here? It'll probably still be a while more, but being able to use Fly - it'd sure be handy! And it sounds fun, flying around the skies! I'd probably also need the HM thing for it too - where do you find that?
[And that's the end of the feed, Laguna giving a smile to it.]
[shut up it's totally the 3rd you people are just slow in da past and junk.
Well now - it seemed a lot of people had their eggs hatch before him. Laguna had gotten a bit worried - the one he's gotten from the breeding center hadn't even hatched yet!
...But, today was a pretty special day for him. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself, as he was filming. He was pretty happy.]
The big 28, huh? Man, if I was at home, I wonder where I'd be right now? Probably with--
[Hahaha... yup, it's his birthday. He's just talking to himself, recording a bit of the slightly snowy Cherrygrove enviroment. Until--]
Woah!
[The video suddenly turned off, the 'gear dropping. Why? Well, Laguna just felt something shaking in his bag. A few moments later, he's suddenly swarmed by Pokemon! And, well, see the picture - the gear seems to have fallen into the sand in just the right place. Lucky!!!]
Looks like they were waiting for each other, doesn't it? All three of them... Cecil, looks like your Litwick hatched, too! And little Leon, and... [Actually, he didn't have a name planned for his third, strange egg. Looks like he's got some thinking to do - Litwick does have a name, mind. It's gonna end up being Tom. The horror. But he's got a smile, either way. Truth be told, he's hella excited.]
Here's to the new year! [He gives a wave, before Boco the friendly Pidgey flies to the 'gear and pokes it off. After a few missed pecks, of course.]

[Hahaha... ha...
So... he's gathered a little. He's not at home anymore, he's got these monsters to fight for him (with no weapon to call his own), and he's not the only one.
But... brr! There was something big bothering him. That thing?]
Did she have to kick me into the cold?
[If he'd gotten warning, he'd probably have thrown on a coat or something - his jacket was sort-of warm, but his forearms were cold, and his fingers too! And his other clothes aren't that good - he got stuck with a jester set of clothes. But he had a reason for this broadcast, as he's looking cheerful, a Pidgey on his head. His Snivy is off-screen.]
So, I was checking the area around here - there's a boat out to another place, right? But there's also a path. Wonder which would be better for us?
[Us being his Pokemon and him, and his possible travel group. He is wondering about the cold a lot, too.] I mean, if this cold gets worse, the water might get frozen. That'd be no good. But if it's that cold, maybe we'd get turned to popsicles for the monsters out there! [He's not sounding serious - because he isn't.]
Also, if you're out there, guys? [as in kiros/ward/anybody else he knows] Sorry I'm late, guess we'll have to meet up somewhere along the way.

Current Characters in Route: None.
Character
Name: Laguna Loire
Series: Final Fantasy VIII
Timeline: Just before becoming president - Dissadia 012 memories are there, but they'll need to be awakened.
Canon Resource Links: The big, bad Final Fantasy Wiki.
Personality: Laguna Loire is one of the more cheerful, if not a bit idiotic, Final Fantasy playable characters. He'll joke and laugh about things, seemingly not focusing on anything serious or scary. However, he's not a full idiot. Just a bit of one. He knows how to motivate people, for one, and how to cheer them up. He might be called naive, he might be called foolish, but you've got to admit - he knows how to lead, and how to progress, and how to try and keep people in high spirits. After all, it's not really a good sigh if you're depressed on the field. You might jusy give up, and that's really bad!
However, this isn't all there is to Laguna. Deep down, or sometimes not, Laguna is nervous. Some people say he's just nervous around pretty women, but that's not it. He's also nervous when, well, he's gotten others into danger, or is under a lot of pressure, or may be about to die - you know, the big things. And ladies. His body feels stiff... and he gets cramps, mostly of the leg sort. He also tends to stammer when he's nervous, and he'll try and change the subject. However, he also tends to speak without thinking - without knowing what'll happen. In fact, that's how he agreed to many things.
Laguna is truely a family guy, and loves his Ellone and Raine. Pity what's gonna happen, huh? With his wife dying and his daughter getting on a ship and his son becoming a loner. He's more of a playful uncle, though, with his childlike joking and playfulness - even if he'd been Squall's dad, I can imagine him being very lenient and playful - just like how he was with Ellone.
Laguna tends to like talking about himself, though. He enjoys the journey, and enjoys speaking about it. After all, he did want to quit the army and become a journalist. Even if he's about to settle down as president of a hidden city. He doesn't enjoy having to kill lots of people in war, though, and wishes he didn't need to do that sort of fighting to save lil' Elle. He'll be glad to stop!
As another note, Laguna has a terrible sense of direction - he gets everybody lost quite a bit, both in FF8 and 012, but he just tries and shrug it off, as part of his cheerfulness. But in all honesty? He wouldn't care either way, because as I mentioned, he likes the journey and the people he meets.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
Well, on the plus side...
+ Laguna can survive out in the field, due to his old training. He can get food from the wild, he can survive in the rain.
+ He's not the sort to just give up, which is rather good. Plus his cheer! That really is a power, in the world of Final Fantasy.
+ He already knows how to trust some sorts of creatures - such as the Moomba, so he won't be shocked as some beasts being friendly if captured.
And on the minus side...
- His sense of direction. It is horribad. He'll end up getting lost quite a bit, as he notices things which get him curious.
- His leg cramps. Really. Due to his nerves, he has them, and they get him down a bit.
- His regrets and fears, though, do get him in the gut. He can't help but wonder - is Elle okay now? What about Raine? He'll try and mask it, but he can't help but worry and fidget and the such.
- Plus! He's more apt at machine guns then hand-to-hand combat! So he won't be able to fight by himself for a while, but he'll be willing to use Pokemon.

Samples
First Person Sample: [The camera was upside-down, as Laguna used it to film the enviroment a bit. Laguna had a bit of a frown, though.]
So... this is Route 36, right? I could have sworn it looked smaller on the map...
[If you're sharp at maps, or where he is, though, it's clear: Laguna is on Route 32, the stark opposite of the shorter route to Goldenrod City. He doesn't seem too phazed, though. The guy let out a laugh.]
But, man oh man... this path is still pretty nice. The monsters here aren't too violent. They don't all charge at me!
[Speaking of, though... suddenly, he points his camera down to his Snivy.]
Anyway, Snivy here doesn't seem to like me. I try and talk to him, but he just ignores me. Wonder why? He won't even react to his nickna--
[But suddenly, Laguna shifts the camera, and it snaps off. It's a random encounter, don't mind him! He'll be back to reply soon]
Third Person Sample: The winds here was a lot different then the winds in Esthar. But of course it was! This place looked filled with trees, with strange birds - it was so calming! Laguna couldn't help but sit down, looking back at that house he was at before. "What a strange woman, now!" he sighed. Well... at least Ellone was safe. He was worried.
He could feel it, though. Those 'faeries' had vanished too... they normally vanished when the excitement faded. Haah... time to relax. At least, if he didn't feel the oddest sense of... nah. It passed. As he let out a stretch, though, he suddenly noticed something. No, not just that his things were mostly gone. There was a strange creature looking at him. He didn't know what it was - it looked kinda like a... dragon? Without wings? Well, that would be a lizard...
It was looking away from Laguna, though, the leafed tail twitching a little, almost irritated? Who knew. Laguna sure didn't - was this thing friendly? Well, only one thing to do! Laguna suddenly smiled.
"Hi there, little guy. What are you?" he said, putting out a hand. The creature tch'ed, continuing to frown, not answering. But, Laguna suddenly layed down, the creature next to his head.
"Wonder what you're thinking about? I mean, not many creatures can speak my language in my old world either. Old world - can't believe I'm saying that so easily! Hahaha..."
Should he be worried? He couldn't help but, well, feel his worry fade. He was stuck, it looked like, but so much had just happened. He'd become president of a hidden land, he'd saved Ellone, maybe he'd even get to see Raine again soon... okay, maybe he had a reason to return soon.
He looked over to the snake, who'd turned to sneering at Laguna a little. Laguna let out a chuckle. "You're pretty serious, you know? How about we work together. I don't know, I could use a guy to keep me in check."
Sigh. The Snivy looked him over, before sitting down. After all... this was his trainer. How did he not know? Did he even listen to anything, or look at his bag? But either way, the Snivy just nodded, with an almost dread.
"That settles it, then!" Laguna said, sitting up. There was a cruise ship over there... it could be nice. Or a road, too... the road looked nicer. He could have a nice travel, he could explore the place.
"Well... to travel well begins with a single step, am I right? Off we go!"
Laguna let out a laugh, as his new Snivy stared down Laguna, before it sighed. What a moron. Did he even know where they were going...? But the path opened, as Laguna took his first steps onto Route 29...

Current Characters in Route: None.
Character
Name: Laguna Loire
Series: Final Fantasy VIII
Timeline: Just before becoming president - Dissadia 012 memories are there, but they'll need to be awakened.
Canon Resource Links: The big, bad Final Fantasy Wiki.
Personality: Laguna Loire is one of the more cheerful, if not a bit idiotic, Final Fantasy playable characters. He'll joke and laugh about things, seemingly not focusing on anything serious or scary. However, he's not a full idiot. Just a bit of one. He knows how to motivate people, for one, and how to cheer them up. He might be called naive, he might be called foolish, but you've got to admit - he knows how to lead, and how to progress, and how to try and keep people in high spirits. After all, it's not really a good sigh if you're depressed on the field. You might jusy give up, and that's really bad!
However, this isn't all there is to Laguna. Deep down, or sometimes not, Laguna is nervous. Some people say he's just nervous around pretty women, but that's not it. He's also nervous when, well, he's gotten others into danger, or is under a lot of pressure, or may be about to die - you know, the big things. And ladies. His body feels stiff... and he gets cramps, mostly of the leg sort. He also tends to stammer when he's nervous, and he'll try and change the subject. However, he also tends to speak without thinking - without knowing what'll happen. In fact, that's how he agreed to many things.
Laguna is truely a family guy, and loves his Ellone and Raine. Pity what's gonna happen, huh? With his wife dying and his daughter getting on a ship and his son becoming a loner. He's more of a playful uncle, though, with his childlike joking and playfulness - even if he'd been Squall's dad, I can imagine him being very lenient and playful - just like how he was with Ellone.
Laguna tends to like talking about himself, though. He enjoys the journey, and enjoys speaking about it. After all, he did want to quit the army and become a journalist. Even if he's about to settle down as president of a hidden city. He doesn't enjoy having to kill lots of people in war, though, and wishes he didn't need to do that sort of fighting to save lil' Elle. He'll be glad to stop!
As another note, Laguna has a terrible sense of direction - he gets everybody lost quite a bit, both in FF8 and 012, but he just tries and shrug it off, as part of his cheerfulness. But in all honesty? He wouldn't care either way, because as I mentioned, he likes the journey and the people he meets.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
Well, on the plus side...
+ Laguna can survive out in the field, due to his old training. He can get food from the wild, he can survive in the rain.
+ He's not the sort to just give up, which is rather good. Plus his cheer! That really is a power, in the world of Final Fantasy.
+ He already knows how to trust some sorts of creatures - such as the Moomba, so he won't be shocked as some beasts being friendly if captured.
And on the minus side...
- His sense of direction. It is horribad. He'll end up getting lost quite a bit, as he notices things which get him curious.
- His leg cramps. Really. Due to his nerves, he has them, and they get him down a bit.
- His regrets and fears, though, do get him in the gut. He can't help but wonder - is Elle okay now? What about Raine? He'll try and mask it, but he can't help but worry and fidget and the such.
- Plus! He's more apt at machine guns then hand-to-hand combat! So he won't be able to fight by himself for a while, but he'll be willing to use Pokemon.

Samples
First Person Sample: [The camera was upside-down, as Laguna used it to film the enviroment a bit. Laguna had a bit of a frown, though.]
So... this is Route 36, right? I could have sworn it looked smaller on the map...
[If you're sharp at maps, or where he is, though, it's clear: Laguna is on Route 32, the stark opposite of the shorter route to Goldenrod City. He doesn't seem too phazed, though. The guy let out a laugh.]
