starspangledavenger[Steve is sitting in the shade of a tree wearing a normal outfit (not his uniform), he's holding an Eevee in his arms, who is softly crying, and has a Lucario sitting next to him looking rather perplexed at the Eevee. Steve looks like he's a little unsure about this]
Grace evolved earlier today, I was a bit concerned about how long it was taking, but she does things at her own pace. [the Lucario looks at Steve and nods in agreement] It was really amazing, I didn't think she'd wind up being so big. No more carrying her around, though she's already picked me up and carried me around. [he chuckles as Grace puffs her chest out proudly]
The problem is Amber hasn't stopped crying and shying away from Grace since. I was thinking she was scared of her, but no, after some charades, I figured out she's really upset because she wants to evolve too. [the Eevee heaves something that is best described as a sob, leaning away from Grace, who is trying to comfort her with some pets]
I want her to meet more of her evolutions before she decides what she wants to be. She's met a number of Espeon's, but none of the others yet. Is anyone willing to humor us and let her at least meet more of her evolutions, even if it's just through video?
Thanks. [a birds talon reaches down to push a button, ending the feed]

Date: 2013-05-01 08:41 am (UTC)Yeah, unless you've been arrested anytime lately, it's not real likely we've met.
[He can't stop trying to place it, though.]
[video]
Date: 2013-05-01 08:45 am (UTC)[holds back a laugh]
[video]
Date: 2013-05-01 09:55 am (UTC)[video]
Date: 2013-05-01 10:21 am (UTC)[doesn't get you at all Blake, you're a strange, angry creature]
[video]
Date: 2013-05-02 08:37 am (UTC)[video]
Date: 2013-05-02 09:50 am (UTC)And I thought they said they were ponies?
[video]
Date: 2013-05-02 10:22 am (UTC)[throws up his hands] What's the difference?
[video]
Date: 2013-05-02 10:36 am (UTC)The size, you whippersnapper.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-02 11:02 am (UTC)[But it's a low-key type, a kind of nuts you can talk to. That's better than some.]
The nearest thing to a horse I've run into back in the real world was a Mustang. Nice car. Too bad a guy got killed in it. Did a number on the upholstery.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 09:27 am (UTC)[it really is hard for him to believe that Blake still can't believe him on some level]
They name cars after horses?
[video]
Date: 2013-05-05 12:19 pm (UTC)[Blake believes his own eyes and his own intuition a lot more than he does some guy's word.]
Yeah, those've been around forever.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-06 05:35 am (UTC)[raises an eyebrow, he's mostly curious to see what Blake has to say]
I've never heard of them.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-06 09:17 am (UTC)[His eyes roll] What are you used to, Model T Fords?
[video]
Date: 2013-05-06 09:29 am (UTC)And no, Pontiac Streamliner was a popular car.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-06 01:58 pm (UTC)[Blake's vaguely heard of that.] Well, you've done your homework. But even by the standards here, "I'm really old and don't look it for no reason" is a weird shtick to choose.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-06 02:18 pm (UTC)[huffs an incredulous laugh] Maybe one day I'll explain it, but I am under no belief that you'll believe me, no matter how logical my reason, so... let's just stick to you thinking I'm lying and off my rocker, while I'll stick to thinking you're bizarre and stubborn.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-08 09:05 am (UTC)[Blake tilts his head and thinks about it.]
[He nods.] Deal.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-08 12:55 pm (UTC)[Steve half means that as a backwards compliment, Blake's level of stubbornness is impressive on some levels]
[he smiles] Well, then that settles that for now.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-08 01:23 pm (UTC)[It is! That's his superpower.]
Glad we understand each other.
Go ahead and punch all the Nazis you want if you can find any, but don't worry too much about all the Japanese people here. They're all pretty much over the atom bomb thing.
A couple say they're ninjas, but eh, what're you gonna do.
[video]
Date: 2013-05-11 09:04 am (UTC)[Steve is honestly pretty impressed on some levels, really Blake takes stubborn to a new level]
[okay, yeah Steve hates the whole atom bomb thing, that was wrong and if Howard had still been alive he would have given him a piece of his mind over it. So... Steve isn't going to comment on that because he rather skip that unpleasant thought with Blake]
Met only two or three, but they've been nice. Never met ninjas before now, but not sure how that works with the colors they wear. Aren't they supposed to wear black?
[honestly confused]
[video]
Date: 2013-05-11 10:42 am (UTC)[got to protect your sanity somehow. Blake's technique is good old fashioned denial.]
Ninjas are supposed to be old enough to see R-rated movies without their parents, too, but that doesn't stop them.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-20 12:03 pm (UTC)[yeah, Steve had to learn to accept things to protect his sanity, since if he hadn't the life he's living would be pretty rough]
I've never met Ninjas before now, so really, I have no idea the age they're supposed to be, they seem young, but it could be cultural. I just know pictures I've seen show them in all black.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-22 09:35 am (UTC)They say they're ninjas. They look like normal kids to me, besides all the talk about killing people.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-26 11:29 am (UTC)Do they sound like they actually kill people, or just kids trying to sound like they do but really don't know the first thing? Because they seem a bit... young for killing people. Ninja or not.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-27 08:53 am (UTC)It doesn't sound like empty bragging. They talk about fighting wars like it's no big deal. Like it's what everybody does where they're from.
[His expression gets darker with each word.]
Yeah they're a little fucking young!
