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.]

Action;
[John shrieks loudly as Guile's plan succeeds. Rose is free and now it is John's turn to be rolling on the floor unable to breathe or speak.]
Action;
You weren't expecting her not to retaliate, were you John?]
Action;
[This is terrible.]
[John tries vainly to roll away, but it's no use. He's pretty sure he's about to die because of this. But eventually, he manages to save up enough air to get out a single word...]
E-El...Elliot-thahahaha!!!
[Gurl...you in trouble now.]
Action;
Guile and Rose both stop, getting up - still laughing mind you - and making for the door. Not going to stick around for Elliot to get there smell you later John.
Hopefully.]
Action;
[I'M ON THE WAY.]
[Yeah guess who you just ran smack into while trying to escape the living room, Lady Rose?]
[The towering ghost looks down at the girl and the Espeon in such a way that he might be saying "And where do you think you're going?" or he could honestly just be baffled as to why John called him. It's hard to tell, unless you're John. Somehow John has gotten pretty good at reading that rather impassive face.]
[Speaking of John, he's managed to roll over onto his stomach, still wheezing as a result of the tickling onslaught.]
G-Get'm, Elliot! [He struggles to his feet.] Hold'm down, I'm coming!
