prank #48 | video
[John seems somehow distracted when he turns on the video today. He's sitting at the kitchen table in his house, chin propped in his hand and eyes on a Pokéball he's rolling idly on the table in front of him.]
You ever wonder what it is that determines what happens to a Pokémon after its trainer goes back home? I mean, I've thought about it before but never really thought about it if that makes any sense? This is really the first time I've inherited one that wasn't from a friend so it just got me thinking.
Granted, it originally belonged to someone who was... [He pauses, seeming almost hesitant to finish that sentence. Or perhaps unsure of how he wants to end it.] ...a friend. At...one point in time... [He trails off, brow furrowing as he stops rolling the ball around.] So maybe it has less to do with Eridan and more to do with her.
[He leans his chair back on two legs, picking the ball up and passing it back and forth between his hands, finally looking at the camera.]
So yeah. Anybody have any good conspiracy theories on the matter? I'm curious.

Action;
She is severely lost and confused on the entire purpose of that.]]
Quag.
[[Prick's attention is back on John and he waddles over there, giving his side a pat, almost like he's trying to comfort him about whatever it is that's bothering him. There are also copious nuzzles from Yidhra as well.
It seems your children all realize something's up.
Except Bee.
This is also confusing.]]
Action;
TEE HEE]I'm okay guys, really. I'm just being stupid. [He bumps his nose against Yidhra.]
Oh but...don't tell your mom I said that, okay? She needs to keep thinking I'm at least halfway intelligent, hehe.
[He looks over at Bee. Oh, Bee. You precious confused little thing. John pats his lap.]
You wanna come sit with me, Bee?
Action;
At least for now.
Bee tilts her head, looking at Prick. When the Quagsire gives as much of a thumbs up as a Quagsire can (he's been practicing really, really hard to get his fins to move the way he wants them to!!!!!!), she trots over to him and hops into his lap, looking up at her...dad.
Expectantly.
What happens now?]]
Action;
What a good girl you are. And so pretty too. [Do you like being scritched under the chin, Bee?]
Action;
While those two bond, Prick motions to the Musharna to step away from dad for a few moments. Yidhra floats over to him, and he explains a plan. One she's a little skeptical of, but he assures her will work. 100%.]]
Action;
Or maybe...
[He moves his hand and pokes Bee in the belly, wiggling his finger in a vaguely ticklish sort of way.] Boop!
Action;
Sorry for the Double Slap. That's just how she reacts to things she doesn't find to be very pleasant!
At least she's still a low level so that shouldn't hurt too much...]]
Action;
[He's actually sounds somewhat stern as he says this.]
We don't do that outside of battle, missy, got it?
Action;
Rose has been working with her on this but as John can plainly see, that's a little more difficult than it sounds.
By now the other two are wandering over to them, and the Quagsire pats John's side.]]
Quag.
Action;
[What if he kisses the top of her head? Will that make her less mad?]
What's up, Prick?
Action;
Prick, meanwhile, tugs on his shirt. Come on dadman. You are apparently going on a trip with him and Yidhra.]]
Quagsire.
Action;
[He scoops Bee up into his arms and gets to his feet. Looks like you're coming along too, little lady.]
Lead the way.
Action;
You're going to love this, John.
Love it.]]
Action;
Action;
Action;
[Seriously like...what do you have to show him all the way out here?]
Action;
[[He's now gesturing to some of the wild Pokemon nearby, and then...
Moving to try and 'smooth talk' one of them.
Apparently, John, Prick feels you need to get some new Pokemon action.
Yidhra looks like she is not impressed with this plan at all.]]
Action;
Prick, did you really drag me all the way out here to watch you hit on the ladies?
Action;
Quag!
[[He tells the lovely lady he's trying to talk into making some eggs with him that he'd be right back and moves behind John, pushing him towards another lady.
Come on man, he brought you out here to do it with him!]]
Action;
You're joking, right?
Action;
[[Nope. He's not.]]
Action;
[Gdi, Prick.]
Action;
At least Yidhra is following without complaint.]]
Action;
Prick, I appreciate the thought. Really man, I do. But I am a taken man already, remember? Kind of have a thing going with your trainer?
[He leads the small Pokégaggle up the front porch steps, Bee still in one arm, the other hand still firmly keeping hold of Prick's flipper.]
And she's all the lady I need. Sometimes it's almost like she's a bit too much for me, ahahahaha...
Action;
She doesn't know what's funny, but something is, so....]]
