[07] [Video - Action for Ecruteak]

[k9tantei]

The feed shows a lovely evening in Ecruteak, with (1) teenage detective wandering out to the park to flop bonelessly in the grass; Baskerville is carrying what looks to be a brand-new saddle sized and designed for a Houndoom, while Heiji’s dropping a shinai and set of kendo pads next to him. Of course, anyone who’s gotten to deal with riding – be it horses back home or Pokémon here – would probably recognize the uneven “Oh god I didn’t even know I had those muscles” stagger of someone who has never ridden before, yet has gotten the brilliant idea to go on an extended ride – it’s hard to tell what’s from the five day long trip from Olivine, and what’s from doing so bareback on a giant dog with bony ridges on its back.]

Saaaaaaa….. ‘m never gonna have kids… [It’s a tiny, despairing whimper.]

[At which point he slowly shifts the arm he’d thrown over his face to look over at the camera… and the Jynx who’s holding it…]

Achfpfh- YUKI! Y’DON’T NEED T’RECORD EVERYTHING! That’d better not be broadcasting! [He sits upright sharply, grabbing at the gear, and is answered with some very happy-sounding gibberish before the Gear is turned off and handed over.]

[HIS MOTHER WOULD BE PROUD. Now she just needs to find a way to send the videos to Osaka…]

Yeah, riding bare back is not fun. I didn't think it would be any worse than going bare back on Appa. Boy was I ever wrong.

Be sure to thank them for me too, when you do. [She's happy to share credit where credit is due, and he definitely did her a favor as well.]

Eh-heh. Guessin' Appa must've been pretty cushy... I shoulda seen somethin' comin', I've heard from people who deal with horses 'bout what it's like if you haven't ridden in a while...


Bet he taught half'f Johto with that one.

Oh, I've got another one - don't try'n get a pokémon without Fly t'carry you more'n a short distance, 'less you wanna end up chasin' every stray leaf or somewhere in th'middle of nowhere.
