[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.]

...Leon, was it.

[How strange. He's not really reacting to the Litwick yet.]

[video]

[ragnarok_strike]

Yeah! Just seemed like a suitable name for a Shinx... don't know why.

[audio]

[soggypastry]

[Leon, huh? Does Laguna know what that name means to so many people? Probably not.]

Which one's Leon?

[Don't mind her, Laguna. It's just her voice that's a bit thick today.]

video

[brokenmemories]

...So your Christmas egg hatched as well. [Why does Deino take a long time to hatch. Misaki was beginning to think it froze to death.]

[She can't help but notice everyone was gathered around but that snake pokemon - why was that?] Is that one of your pokemon over there? The snake one.

video

[ragnarok_strike]

Has yours?
[Laguna looked over - so that's where Ragnarok got to, huh?]
Oh yeah - that's my starter, Ragnarok. He's not a fan of the group hugs, I guess?

[audio]

[ragnarok_strike]

He's the Shinx.
[Of course he doesn't know the true meaning of the name. He was thinking more like - Leon sounds like Lion and is also a coolish name.]
Lots of people are interested in him, huh?
[He does notice the thick voice - something up? He doesn't question it yet, though.]

video

[brokenmemories]

Not yet. I've been told what kind of pokemon it was but I don't know when it'll hatch.

[Misaki blinked. She had thought the pidgey was his starter, not the snake. She shrugged off the thought.] He's the loner type, huh?

Re: video

[ragnarok_strike]

It can't take too long, can it?
[He hopes not... but anyway.] Looks like. I dunno... we don't really fit each other.
[It just has major trust issues.] But that's what it like. You know? You can't pick your friends.

video

[brokenmemories]

Well, you can't rush development, you know? [Especially with all this winter cold, oh god. Poor Dragon type.]

[Misaki flashed a smile, remembering how many times that thought came to mind. With people like Madoka and Ruka, its bound to come up.]

I see what you mean. I guess it'll change over time.

video

[ragnarok_strike]

I guess not. Wouldn't want it to get messed up by everything. [Including those god-things he saw, of course. Yeah he's still thinking of the Regis.
But Laguna stops a little, before looking to Ragnarok.]
As long as he's stil himself, that is. Don't really want to make him different, you know? He's a strong battler, wouldn't want him to lose that.
[...Wait a second. Ragnarok's walked off. Hmph.]

video

[brokenmemories]

[She gave a little shrug.] Plus, it gives me more time to prepare for when it hatches. Its species are born blind and will remain that way for quite a while. Poor things usually try to bite stuff to make familiar of their surroundings.

It's good you accept him for who he is. I'm sure he'll continue to be strong as long as - wait, where did he go?

video

[ragnarok_strike]

Really? [spoilers: someday, laguna will have a deino. it will be terrible for all.] I don't know how I'd get ready for that... I'm glad this girl isn't a biter!
[The Munna is just resting on him, making nibbling motions while half-asleep.
But then Laguna looks over behind him.] He tends to wander off - guess he just likes his alone time! He hasn't come back that hurt, so I think it's okay.

video

[brokenmemories]

[I'd wanna see that happen, oh ho ho.]

[Misaki looked at the Munna, fascinated by its cuteness it was emitting. She hates how vulnerable she was to stuff like that.] ...Do you know what kind of pokemon that is? It looks kind of like...a yellow pig.

[The girl only blinked upon hearing the man's explanation but soon gave a shrug.] ..Shouldn't be something to worry about then.

video

[ragnarok_strike]

It's a Munna, I think? That's what I kinda heard just when she hatched. She does look kinda piggish, I guess?
[He's not gonna mention he heard it in his head only.]
But I've noticed... everybody's Christmas eggs seem to be different colours then the normal ones. Wonder what she's meant to look like.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Etymology, perhaps.

[Or mysterious awareness.]

It's a good, strong name.

[video]

[ragnarok_strike]

I guess... but it suits him, I guess? Wonder why it's so strange.
[hahaha] But I'm sure he'll grow up strong. I mean, when he hatched, he tackled me a bit. [With a Quick Attack. Laguna's just still smiling, though. It could have been worse!] And besides - I'll make sure they all grow up well, we've got things to protect!

[audio]

[soggypastry]

[There's a tiny chuckle; a Shinx, huh? Fitting, considering what it grows up into.]

Something like that. [she clears her throat, trying to sound normal again. Doesn't quite work but it's better than before.] Leon was the name of a man who was here before. A lot of people knew him.

[And were close. Some moreso than others.]

[Action]

[alonelyworld]

[Have Ushio watching in awe. Her own trio of Pokémon sitting around her.]

They all hatched at once?

Maybe they did it specifically for your birthday!

Video; so I totally almost logged into my Laguna account by mistake when going to comment here...

[lightningbearer]

*the video blinks on to show.... well, this fellow. Who after blinking a few times, promptly smiles and waves, because hey, new friends!*

Video; oh gosh that would have been... awkward?

[ragnarok_strike]

[...Ooh! Suddenly, the Pidgey flaps up. Hi, friend! Laguna, though, is trying to stop the bird from pecking the screen as it flaps around. Boco... doesn't know about cameras, it thinks there's a tiny Oshawott in there.
:3]

[Action]

[ragnarok_strike]

[He turns a bit, and lets out a laugh - his Litwick approaching Ushio a bit.]
Looks like we'll need to prepare a lot more presents next year, then!

[audio]

[ragnarok_strike]

Oh...
[He had no idea!]
A friend of yours, then? [Well, former friend...]

[Action]

[alonelyworld]

I guess so.

[She smiles and watches the Litwick approach.]

Do you think it'll be hard to train them all?

[audio]

[soggypastry]

[Not surprised he had no idea. Most people don't talk about those who have left.]

You could say that. [Something more than a friend. Much more. In any event:] I knew him well enough to know he'd have made a face at you for that name. [she sounds a little amused, though. Probably imagining that face.]

it's right next to Geddoe's on my widget so |D;;;

[lightningbearer]

Osha! Oshawott!

*the oshawott is pleased to meet you! ....his trainer, however, is nowhere in sight :|a*
