So did anybody know that it's possible for Pokémon to be deaf?
[While John looks more or less fine, when he speaks there's a definite sort of half-squeaky grogginess to his voice that suggests he's only just recently gotten it back. Someone was pretty damn sick over New Year's (on his deathbed, one would think, the way he carried on) and has only just recently gotten over it. But at least his nose finally stopped running and he's done coughing. His lost voice just has yet to find its way back to him entirely.]
[He's sitting on the floor of his living room, leaning back against the couch. He's not looking at the camera, though. Instead, he's smiling somewhat fondly at a cheerful-looking Gothita playing with a squiddle doll a few feet away from him. She's chewing on one of the tentacles, giggling a little with her back to John.]
I feel like it really shouldn't be so surprising. I just never really stopped to think about it being a Thing That Could Happen, you know? [He turns his attention to the camera, finally.]
Anyway, so how was everyone's New Year? I missed ringing it in, myself.
[Time to play catch-up since he's been out of the loop for like a week now and fuck checking all the network backlog.]

She's a Gothita, a psychic type. Her egg was my present from the Rudolphs.

[Basing her question on the account that she owns two Psychic pokemon herself (though they're anything but pleasant).]
Nice to hear someone got something they liked from the Rudolphs.

It's been a while since I have had any baby Pokémon to look after. Kinda missed it. [He chuckles a little bit and pokes his Gothita in the belly.] So yes, I was very pleased with mine. Though you wouldn't be the first I've heard of that wasn't exactly thrilled about theirs. What was it?

[A bird that could draw. That sounds interesting.]
I wouldn't say I'm not unhappy with it but its certainly a surprise. [Kind of.] It's a dog bone. You know, one of those toys that dogs love to chew on?
video
[It's...interesting, to say the least. Sometimes John wonders if Mister Spock actually can speak with words but is purposefully being obtuse.]
Like the plastic kinds you mean?
video
Right. Though I'm not sure this is a new one or the same one my friend gave me back home.

Mmm...personally, just based on what I have seen some other people get back, I would think it's actually the one you had back home. Since apparently these Stantler were capable of that.
