010 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action for New Bark Town]

[Good evening, residents of Johto. I hope you're a fan of loud sounds! The 'Gear feed opens to the sound of a loud crack of a backpack hitting a tree, before splashing down into a pile of snow.]

You ate all my food, you good-for-nothing thief! [A young woman's voice yells out in a heavy southern drawl. The target of her frustration wanders into view: a Munchlax, who takes the opportunity to rummage through her backpack for any morsel he might have left behind in his last raid. His eyes grow wide at the sight of the pokegear. It's so shiny and red, like a big yummy apple.

...And then anyone watching gets to find out what the inside of a Munchlax's mouth looks like.]


Gimme that! That ain't for eatin'!

[A woman's hand rips the 'Gear from the pokemon's mouth, the force causing her to topple backwards into the snow. She appears to be in her early twenties, her face dotted with freckles and framed with golden-blonde hair tied into a ponytail near the bottom. Wearing nothing but a pair of blue jeans and an orange button-down, she doesn't exactly look properly dressed for the weather. She shifts awkwardly in the snow, fumbling with the 'Gear.]

Darn these wiggly things, an' this weird body. [She snorts in frustration, before giving up and using her mouth to turn off the feed.]

I promise you, Applejack, it's perfectly safe. Spike- not our Spike, I just... named my Dragonite after him is perfectly capable of carrying me and at least one other passenger, and I trust him with my life.

Alright, that'll work fine.

[There's the sound of a door opening as Twilight steps outside.]

Just keep talking to the others and learn as much as you can about the situation, I'll fill you in on whatever you miss. And I know the rest of you don't have my... attachment to books, but if you have time, you should check this out too.

Don't let the name put you off, it's written by a friend of mine who's very knowledgeable about the world and about Pokemon. It's very useful.

[There's a popping sound, a woosh, and a loud roar as Twilight releases her Dragonite.]

I'll see you soon, AJ! [She hops onto the dragon's back, and it spreads its wings wide.]

It was Spring when I left home, and winter was starting when I got here.

The time thing is kinda trippy huh?

Barring the near death snowstorm thing the snow's been really pretty to look at!

Hehe, alright. We'll see how far you get after you've fallen in the snow a few times.

(Rainbow has experience in that, but she's not about to mention it.)

[Even though flight is easily the fastest way to travel, and Violet and New Bark aren't that far apart, it's still a bit over an hour and a half before Twilight shows up as a speck on the horizon. A very, very rapidly growing speck, with how fast Spike can fly.

As they come in towards the town, they start to descend, heading straight for the gates leading out. Spike rushes down like a missile, swooping in and rushing until he's right above the ground. As he nears AJ, his wings flare wide, and he brings out his feet to land.

He stops just a few feet away from her, and greets her with a cheery growl. Twilight leaps off his back, and straight at Applejack with outstretched arms.

AJ! It's so good to see you again!

...You have the rest of your clothes right? Socks, coat, pants, bra- No, wait, better let Twilight explain this stuff and clothes and things, she's your friend and this is just on my edge of weird I am okay with.

But you have pants right?

Anytime, anywhere! I'm still the IronPony, after all.

Try putting him back in the Pokeball he came in?

*Imogen will hold up one of her Pokeballs.*

Looks like this, you should have one on your belt for your friend there. And a bunch of empty ones in your bag.

(Rainbow pouts almost immediately, glancing away from the screen for a long moment.)

...Even without my wings, I can still beat you.

(May or may not be a taboo phrase to bring up around her, AJ.)
friendyousohard: Unsure looking Twilight. (Erm... are you sure about this Pinkie?)

[personal profile] friendyousohard 2013-01-08 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
Well, he... really flies himself, I just hang on, and- Oh my Celestia, Applejack! Your feet!

[She kneels down and grabs one of AJ's feet with a very worried expression.] This is awful! We've got to get these warmed up right away. [Unclipping a ball from her belt, she tosses it into the air.] Come out, Pyrolepi!

[The enormous fire caterpillar poofs into existence right in front of AJ, and Twilight quickly sets her feet on her.] Don't worry. Pyrolepi's part fire, so she'll get your feet warmed back up in no time. Did your Munchlax really eat all your shoes and socks?
friendyousohard: (Neat.)

[personal profile] friendyousohard 2013-01-08 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, they call it "munch" lax for a reason. Well, don't worry. I thought ahead.

[She swings her own backpack off her back and sets in down in front of Applejack, unzipping it to reveal a whole new set of winter-ready clothes!]

They're in my size, so they might not fit you perfectly, but it's got to be better than nothing, right?
