Red Fish [Video/Action for Cherrygrove City]

[toofless]

<sub>[The video begins with a great deal of commotion.]

[It would seem that it turned on right in the middle of some kind of confrontation-- ... in the water, no less.]

[There's a lot of splashing around, and judging from the murky visuals on the screen, the 'Gear is in a pocket, and being continually plunged in and out of the surf. Finally, the sky rolls around, although it's soon replaced by a tumbling view of wet sand, sky, wet sand again, and then finally, the owner of the 'Gear, staggering out of the waves and trundling up onto the beach.]

[It's Toothless, sopping wet and growling possessively, his normally-spiky hair hanging down around his face like seaweed.]

[... But what will probably catch most peoples' attention is the fact that he appears to have a fairly sizable Magikarp, still squirming and flopping, lodged partway down his throat.]

[... And with some hurk-hurk-hurking noises, he's trying to swallow the rest of it, too.]

[Wellp. He's in for a rude awakening...]</sub>

<sub>[He's already encountered the dreaded gag reflex-- and then there's the fact that this fish won't die.]

[Toothless is upset and confused and he doesn't like this world.]</sub>

Hrrnhhm nrr nrrrr.

_{[... He says, around the fish.]}

...um. Maybe you should spit that out. [It doesn't look that comfortable for the pokemon or the trainer.]

You still having trouble with money?

... Mmm nmm.

_{[THAT CURSED MUNN-EE. He just doesn't understand it. This place is all so complicated. 8c]}

...I’ll take that as a yes. [Stumped look.] Where are you right now? If you’re near Goldenrod, I could probably help, but...anything beyond Violet’s a bit far.

_{[... Toothless sags. He doesn't know where he is, but he's pretty sure it's not 'Violet' or 'Goldenrod'.]}

...you don’t know, do you. [Oh boy. How does he help someone who isn’t sure where they are?] Erm...do any of these sound familiar? Violet? Cherrygrove? New Bark?

[Since he’s a newcomer, he should still be in one of these, right?]

<sub>[There's a brief pause as Toothless considers the words being tossed his way. They don't sound familiar, and he can't read, so it's not like he could just look at the signs.]

[But after a moment or so, he turns the camera around and shows Merlin his surroundings-- the dunes of Cherrygrove beach.]</sub>

[It takes him a bit of time to recognise the place, since it's been a while since he was last there.]

Cherrygrove, huh. It'd take me a while to get there in person... aha! [Something's finally clicked!] You just need food, right? Fish? How about I send you something to help you get on your feet?

[Video]

[halfatail.livejournal.com]

<sub>[... Oh. Oh gods. Was... was this boy offering to send him food? REAL FOOD?]

[Toothless perks up immediately. He is a proud animal... but he's also hungry. :( Really hungry. And no wild animal who's used to sleeping and rolling in the grass and eating fish all day is going to have even the barest comprehension of the "Get a job" mentality.]

[CONGRATULATIONS MERLIN YOU HAVE HIS FULL ATTENTION.]</sub>

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

[He notes the change in demeanor with a smile.]

I guess that's a "yes". What else do you need? Aside from...fish.

Fsh!

_{[Hearing THAT word just makes him... well. Repeat it. Happily. Because, after all-- that IS all he needs. To stay happy, anyway... his human body is going to need quite a few other things in terms of nutrition, but shhhh he doesn't know that yet.]}

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

Okay, fish it is. I can take the hint.

[He pauses, looking at the area.] Just...stay put. I'll send Archimedes over with the package--maybe include a few other things just in case you do need them later. How does that sound?

_{[... Judging by the happy wiggle dance that Toothless is doing with the camera? That sounds AWESOME.]}
