[It's late. Or too damn early. Somewhere in that ambiguous area, like 3:00 in the morning, just fine for certain parts of the alien population and a god-awful time for the rest. But here Kid is, addressing the network from the confines of a room in the island-side village.

One can just make out a few figures (Maka Albarn and Rin Okumura) behind him, sound asleep in their bed.]

I have a very important announcement to make, one that simply cannot wait until morning!

[The grim reaper, looking more lively than he has since... well, since the bubble cracked, stoops out of sight of the SFC, and reappears with an Umbreon in his arms. Beaming with the pride perhaps only a father might have for their child, he declares:]

This is Pip, and he's become even more beautiful than ever!

[It is indeed Pip, recently evolved, and he is still fat. He is also a she, but Kid never investigated that closely. Promptly forgetting about the SFC in his eagerness, Kid retreats with Pip in his arms to bend over Maka.]

Maka, Maka! Wake up! I don't want you to miss this!

Simply Kid will suffice, Wally. It is after all what my friends call me.

[He gets that a lot.]

It's quite possible we've only missed each other in the bubble up until now, how long have you been here?

Okay Kid, then.

[ Whew. That's so much easier. ]

I've been here probably a little less then a week now.

It's only to be expected that each individual may have a different reaction, but you seem relatively untroubled by your captivity.

[Not that he wants Wally to start running around in a state of noisy distress, but it's still surprising.]

Unless arriving suddenly in locations likely vastly different than those more familiar is a regular occurrence for you.

It's definitely not a regular occurrence! But I guess I'm just looking at it like a new and somewhat unavoidable adventure, so I can't help but be a little excited.

[ He's a glass half full kinda kid. Besides it's three in the morning, not like he'd have the energy to run around in a state of noisy distress even if he wanted to. ]

Besides, I have my pokemon here with me too so they do a good job of keeping me company.

[Wait a second. Could identify Pip immediately on sight, has pokemon, hasn't been here nearly long enough to acquire and hatch any eggs...]

Are you a trainer, then? Like Bianca?

[And later confirmed, ha ha.]

Edited (man who cares about that n guy) 2013-05-10 23:51 (UTC)

Yes! Like Miss Bianca.

[ He nods. He was so happy to discover that there are at least a few trainers around. ]

So if you ever want a battle or anything, I'd be more then happy to oblige.

I'm afraid I must pass. It seems unsporting to fire upon an unarmed challenger.

[Oh god Kid not that kind of battle.

REMEMBER. THESE GUYS FIGHT WITH THEIR POKEMON.]

But I'm not... huh?

[ Wally's pretty sleepy so he's really not even sure what the heck Kid is trying to say. ]

I have pokemon and so do you. Why would a pokemon battle be unsporting...?

[ ...But he did say 'fire upon' which was weird terminology... and he DID have that swanky looking suit... ]

...are you in the mafia...?

Mafia?

[He... can't-- what?

Wow, Patti isn't even here and Kid is already internally bracing for a gale of her shrieking laughter at the very idea.]

No, no, I simply-- you meant a pokemon battle?

[Of course, that's what he said.]

I've never... that is, Pip and I have never fought in one before.

[ Hey. Wally feels Kid totally has the right look for it. But now he feels a touch guilty for jumping to conclusions. ]

...Never? Not even once?

[ He looks pretty surprised. Even people who kept pokemon purely as pets usually let them have a battle or two. ]

Do you know what Pip's moves are? Or her special ability?
