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: 2013-04-28 09:50 pm (UTC)[Amber snuggles against the gear, trying to snuggle through it but really it's a wasted effort.]
A day or so outside of Olivine on Route 39.
[VIDEO]
Date: 2013-04-29 04:41 pm (UTC)You want to go see them.
[He bounces once emphatically, a habit he'd never lost after evolving.]
Now? [A sigh, then she glances toward the screen again. It's a bad idea, but...]
I can Fly there in about two or three hours, if you wouldn't mind a sudden social visit. Otherwise I'm afraid this guy will just take off on his own.
[VIDEO]
Date: 2013-04-30 04:20 am (UTC)Wouldn't want him disappearing on you. If you really want to make the trip, I'd welcome the visit. Amber would like it too.
[VIDEO]
Date: 2013-05-02 12:17 am (UTC)Yeah, looks like it. Anyway, you got a name? I'll head your way in a couple minutes.
[VIDEO]
Date: 2013-05-05 08:51 am (UTC)[the Eevee wiggles around excitedly]
Amber looks forward to your arrival.
[VIDEO --> ACTION!]
Date: 2013-05-06 01:34 am (UTC)[Tanuki jumps to paw at the screen -- soon!]
I'll be there in about two and a half hours. I'll see you then, Steve-san.
[And with that, she shuts off the 'gear. The next time Steve would see her, it's on the back of a Skarmory flying down to try and find them along the routes. Shouldn't be too hard, really...]
[ACTION!]
Date: 2013-05-06 05:32 am (UTC)Ahoy!
no subject
Date: 2013-05-06 11:07 pm (UTC)Hi! [The bright smile she gives him doesn't reveal any of her suspicion as she draws a ball from her belt and releases Tanuki before he tries breaking out himself, somehow.]
Nice to meet you, Steve-san. This is Tanuki. He doesn't really look so much like one anymore, but...
[The Espeon is off to find Amber though, not too concerned with what his trainer was doing. Priorities!]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-11 09:43 am (UTC)A pleasure to meet you, Miss Tenten. That's Grace [points to the Lucario, then points to Amber] and Amber. [Isn't sure what a Tanuki is, but decides not to ask]
[Amber looks up at the noise, then sees Tanuki and scrambles to her feet only to trip and need to rescramble back to her feet]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-12 01:26 am (UTC)[That's the second one she's seen; the first was Sasuke's, and it was then she decided that she had to have one.
Meanwhile Tanuki makes a beeline over to Amber, jumping up with his front two feet and letting his front paws rest right in front of her face. Why was she so sad? Look, he's here now, and he even brought his trainer with him!]
Anyway, I'm glad you were nearby. I'm not sure how much of this country you've seen, but let me tell you, flying from one end to the other nonstop isn't all that great.
no subject
Date: 2013-05-20 12:11 pm (UTC)[Amber jumps up and bumps against Tanuki in greeting, making a happier sound because he's here and so is his nice looking trainer and she's so excited to meet him off the tiny device that her dad uses all the time and paws at him, clearly still sad, but he's a great distraction from it. Grace ignores all of it and studies Tenten and her bird carefully]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-23 01:52 am (UTC)[Her Skarmory just stares at Grace, not liking any other Pokémon's attention on his trainer but his -- in fact, he goes far enough to spread his wings to try to look more intimidating, catching Tenten's attention and forcing her to make a soft shush! sound, patting the air to try to get him to calm back down.]
Fly's pretty handy, I'll give you that much. You already fight Falkner-san, then? Or are you a breeder?
[Tanuki, meanwhile, is having the time of his life, pawing right back, jumping in the air, padding all around Amber and trying to do his best to cheer her up.]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-26 02:52 am (UTC)One of my companions is a breeder I think, though I don't think he gets the concept, he just wants to conquer the badges. But yes, I feel ready to take on Falkner now that Grace evolved. I'll be heading back that way here in the next few weeks. Need to earn some money first.
[Tanuki is doing a great job cheering Amber up so far! She runs around him and jumps, trying to get as high up as him]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-28 03:48 am (UTC)I don't blame him for wanting to get the badges, they're a good point of pride, you know. [And for her, something to prove how great she is to Sasuke.] I like breeding, when my Pokémon let me, but battling is definitely what I'd rather do.
[Alright, now that she's starting to get cheered up... Tanuki's got to test if he has a new partner in crime. Game for sneaking up on his trainer and trying to climb all the way up to sit on her shoulders, new-friend-Amber?]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-30 12:24 pm (UTC)I probably would have made a better breeder, though I haven't done any of that yet. The battling, sometimes I'm not a fan. [Grace leans against Steve, just to offer comfort if he needs it, she hates when he's anything but happy, so she tries to preempt it] But they love it, so I'm not going to stop them, just patch the wounds and coach them.
[Partner in crime? He's come to the right Eevee for that. Amber totally game for this, excited, because she's a good climber and she wants to show off]
no subject
Date: 2013-05-31 07:03 am (UTC)[He sounds like Joonhee in that respect... something she didn't think she'd ever understand, really, though the way his Pokémon leans against him? He definitely can't be all bad.]
I think that's one of the best ways to go about it. Pokémon are like people, they want to train to get as strong as they can.
[Speaking of Pokémon getting as strong as they can... With Amber complicit, Tanuki darts forward, immediately leaping to latch onto Tenten's back and propel himself up to rest both paws between her hairbuns. Feng, on the other hand, is none too impressed, screeching loudly and unfurling his wings in protest as he stamped the ground.]
Tanuki!!
no subject
Date: 2013-06-07 09:34 am (UTC)[he gets distracted by her reaction to her Pokemon climbing her, but even more distracted when Amber follows suit and can't jump as high as Tanuki, landing on Tenten's but before scrambling up to her shoulders. Grace Immediately focuses on that bird, because one negative move at her hatchling and she won't hesitate to take action. Steve frowns, because that's rude, but he also has to high his amusement because the reactions are funny]
Amber!
no subject
Date: 2013-06-07 11:28 pm (UTC)[Alright Tanuki is hard enough to support, what with fifty-odd pounds worth of Espeon. Amber's clambering attempts don't help at all, leaving her stumbling and only barely managing to catch herself and spread her feet for balance.]
Tanuki, I keep telling you, you're too big for this now!
[Not that Tanuki cares. He's content to be there showing off to his new Eevee friend that look he can ride on his trainer's shoulders!]
no subject
Date: 2013-06-12 10:36 pm (UTC)Sorry about that.
no subject
Date: 2013-06-14 11:18 am (UTC)Tanuki, not again. Don't encourage others to do it, either!
[She rubs her shoulder even as Tanuki moves into rub his cheek cat-like against Steve's ankle.]
Anyway, it's alright. With all the Pokémon I have, I shouldn't really be surprised by much.
no subject
Date: 2013-06-19 09:57 am (UTC)Amber is the only one who climbs on me and she's the most mischievous. The rest aren't as into tricks and games as she is.
[Amber prances around her dad and Tanuki, clearly pleased with herself, but then also asks Tanuki is his trainer is mad at them.]
