011 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action for Violet]
[Applejack is standing under a tree, her gaze locked on a single red apple hanging from a branch. She grits her teeth. Dumb human body. If she was a pony, this wouldn't be any problem at all. But damnit, she was hungry. She had to try.]
Alright, Applejack. It's just like back home. Nice an' easy, no problem.
[She backs up a couple steps, before running at the tree. When she gets close, she brings up her leg, forcing it into the trunk of the tree with all her might. She stays there, for a moment, glaring at the trunk, which hasn't budged an inch. The adrenaline quickly wearing off, Applejack yelps, rolling off the tree and grabbing her ankle.]
Dang it! Dumb apple, why can't you just fall!?
[Suddenly, shifting in the branches! AJ's eyes quickly dart up, smiling in expectation. She closed her eyes, holding out her hands. Soon that delicious ruby would be in her hands, and she'll finally be able to--OOF!]
[Applejack's eyes widen as the much-larger-than-an-apple pokemon lands on her chest. The Pineco's eyes narrow, growling.]
Uh, hey there, sugarcube. Let's not get too hasty...
[The feed cuts with the sound of an explosion.]

[Off they go, Tesla leading the way with its unintelligible beep. It's not much of a hike, so soon enough they come upon Snails, who is currently shooting his water gun.
In a desperate attempt to keep the lumbering Bushel away from him.]
Snails! [Alarmed for her gift from Rainbow, Twilight bursts into a run, her Pokes charging with her.]

[She pulls his pokeball from her belt, recalling the monster.]

Agonizingly slowly.
Twilight catches him up and lifts him, sighing in mingled relief and irritation.]
You need to pay more attention. If you'd followed me and the others, you'd have been fine.
[Snails responds with a blank stare.]

[She sets down the doofy pink snail, who just stares blankly into space.] Besides, it looks like everything's okay now.

Still, we were talking about your other pokemon, weren't we?

... If you're lucky, they'll have missed you just as much as we did.

[She pats Applejack on the shoulder.] Try to keep a positive outlook. I know Jessie and Spook were very fond of you, at least.

[That could be a bit of an overly optimistic viewpoint, but then, she is trying to be reassuring.]

It'll work out, Applejack. I'm... not quite sure how, yet, but I know it will.
no subject
...It ain't right.
no subject
Or whatever's bringing us to this world does, at least. My point is, it isn't your fault.
