9th Struggle | [Action/Video] | Back Dated [2/13] | What had happened was...


[Action]

Work, work, work… was that all Yukio ever did? They were in Johto – scratch that, they were in Goldenrod City! There were way more things to do than sit back and look at formulas or poking berries, like Yukio. Sure, it was one thing for Rin to work with new ideas for Pokemon food – it was food, (duh) but it was sort of part of his job? And that was way more important and about a thousand times more interesting than – than –

What the hell are you doing? Was a question that needed to be asked but Rin wasn’t willing to wait for an answer. There was something far more important that voicing an obvious question – and it was a simple thing that lay in a medium sized bowl between them. Yukio was closer to it with his – tools? Or. Y’know. His doctoring toys. Whatever those things were. Rin stood close to the table, one hand hovered over the bowl. He was ready to reach into the bowl to grab another cheri berry for the recipe he was working on (which was going to be awesome by the way) but… but…

His brother looked far too content. Far too engrossed in his work. Far too OLD and BORING and if Rin wasn't careful, Yukio might actually age faster by just sitting there.

“Hey, bro.”

Yukio made a noncommittal sound, barely glancing up from his – whatever Frankenstein thing he was tinkering with. This was going to be almost too easy. And there was no doubt that this was The Best Idea Ever.

“Betcha can’t eat five.”

That time Yukio looked up over the rim of his glasses. He glanced between Rin and the bowl and back to Rin again, as if he had really considered it (okay, maybe he didn't but it looked like he did!).

“That’s stupid, you’re just going to hurt yourself.” He said softly before glancing back to his work. But Rin would not be dissuaded. Oh no, not with an answer like that.

“You’re just chicken.”

Yukio glanced up again, a frown on his face. “Am not.”

“Bawk bawk baaaaaaaaaaaaaawk!!

He made a pretty damn good impersonation of a chicken, if did say so himself. That was all it would take. This spoken-unspoken challenge was on!


[Video]

Airi fluttered around both boys, her arms flapping about as she flounced between them with nursing supplies in tow. They were still seated at the table where their challenge began, except the bowl of freshly picked cheri berries was suspiciously empty.

Yukio had a large wad of tissues latched to his ruddy face. He pointedly ignored his brother as he did his best to hold his face in one piece. Rin lay his head on the table, a distinctly nauseous look on his equally flushed face. He would have made a quip or two if it didn’t feel as if he would suddenly hurl at any given moment.

The younger Okumura reached over, his hand waving in the air to bat away the Gear's camera which seemed to be held above them. "Kizamime... why are you... turn that thing off." he groaned, managing to wipe his face with the tissues. Behind the camera is the chirp of a rather cheery Noibat, almost splitting his sides in amusement at the sight.

But Yukio managed to straighten himself up before digging into his wallet and handing Airi a few pokedollars. "Airi, run to the store and get us some milk. I think we'll probably need..." he began before turning his attention to a groan from nearby.

"I think I'm gonna be sick--"
"Rin, no!"

Oh, no! Mr. Yukio! Where are you? Are you still in Goldenrod city? We can help!

We're still here... I'm sorry if we've worried you.

[ There's a sigh though as he turns away to wipe at his eyes and nose because it's just bleeding rude to do that while in view of someone. ]

I've sent Airi to get some milk. That... that should probably be enough. I'm sorry if you had to see that.

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-02-28 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to come help right away! Please, tell me where exactly you are!
in_praetego: (「え?!」)

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-02-28 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
No really, Ib! I... it's not necessary! We'll be al- HEY!

[ There's protesting there as his Chansey shoves her trainer out of the way. Yes, good. Help. Surely you understand the ridiculous situation, small helpful girl. She accepts your help even if her trainer will not!

She's going to scramble around a bit before holding up a paper bag from the Pokemart and start to wave it about, pointing to it. She'll meet you here! She'll take you to her trainer and his silly brother!

Paper bag, pointing, waving and pointing to the door. ]


Airi, really... you don't need to bother Ib with--

CHANSEY!

[ Please meet her at the store. She needs to get these ridiculous boys some milk. ]

[Ib, with her ability to understand Pokemon quite well, gets the message!] O-Okay! I'll be right there! I'll bring Icee and Garry's Gardrevoir, too! Icee can make ice packs, and Gardrevoir knows Heal Pulse!
in_praetego: ([!!] Gonna take it over)

Video > action??

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-01 01:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Chan-sey!

[ Ah~ thank you so much, kind child! She knew her trainer was right in trusting you. And before Yukio can even protest, she's out the door and on her way to the store.

Ib will most likely find her scouting around the shelves for several quarts of milk. ]
red_roses: (Um...//Excuse me)

Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-02 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Ib's quick to head to the store, her group of Pokemon in tow.] Chansey? Are you here?
in_praetego: (Default)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-02 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[ And sure enough, a chansey peeks around from the corner of one of the aisles with two jugs of milk in tow. ]

Chansey!

[ Airi waddles over with both her jugs, looking rather excited to see Ib and the rest. But she holds up a flipper as if to ask them to wait a moment as she hasn't paid for the milk yet. ]
red_roses: (Smile//Happy)

Re: Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-03 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Okay, we'll wait outside! [Ib ushers her herd of Pokemon outside.]
in_praetego: (Default)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-03 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It doesn't even take her a moment when she comes a waddling out with a paper bag.]

Chansey!

[ Waving Ib over before she approaches. ]

Chan-chansey!

[ She's sorry if she's kept you waiting! But she's grateful for the help. Now if you'll come this way, she'll be happy to lead the helpful young miss to the place in Killua's dojo the Okumuras have been bunking down in. ]
red_roses: (Smile//Happy)

[Ib and her flock trot dutifully behind Chansey.] Chansey, do you think Heal Pulse will work?
in_praetego: (Default)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-04 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Chansey?

[ She's gonna think about that a bit, head tilting side to side. Yukio was in such a rush to decline Ib's offer that Airi had rushed out of there before she could test anything. But she was certain milk worked with spicy food. ]

Chansey!

[ It's worth a try, miss!

But she pauses a bit, pushing a door open and heading to the kitchen after, motioning for Ib to follow]

Airi?

[ Yukio has managed to pull himself up and away from the table once he hears the commotion in the kitchen from the Chansey bustling about trying to find some glasses.

There's a small apologetic sigh though when Yukio notices Ib and her pack. ]


Ah... sorry for the inconvenience, Ib.
red_roses: (Smile//Happy)

Re: Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-06 08:03 am (UTC)(link)
It isn't one at all! Now, would you like me to try to use Heal Pulse?
in_praetego: ([..?] Gonna start it over)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-06 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A heal pulse? Now that's a thought. ]

Do you think it'll work on humans?

[ There's a small pause though as he takes the glass Airi offers him and swirls the milk in it thoughtfully. ]

I... it really isn't a big deal. But I guess it's worth a try...
red_roses: (Smile//Happy)

Re: Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-10 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
We won't know unless we try! [She turns to her Gardrevoir.] Please, won't you try? [Gardrevoir shrugs, but, it's not like she's asking him to move a mountain.] Voirrr! [A pink, heart shaped aura emits from him!]

[ There's a pause as he lets the Gardevoir do its thing. Oddly, it seems to stave off some of the heat and some of the nausea. Well that was unexpected. ]

...huh.

[ And looking up at both Ib and the Pokemon. ]

That... seems to be a little better. Thanks.
red_roses: (Smile//Happy)

Re: Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-11 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Ib grins.] Good! I'm glad! We can try it again later, too! But for now, please rest!
in_praetego: ([...] | Gone and fucked things up again)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-11 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Y... yeah.

[ There's a shy little smile there because he is grateful, Ib. ]

I'm... afraid there isn't much we can do right now to pay you back but-- Airi?

[ His Chansey's got him covered as she presents Ib with -- an egg! Chansey eggs. The magical cure-all for whatever ails you. ]

Chansey!

[ Please take it as a sign of gratitude, miss! ]
red_roses: (How cute!//BUNNIESSSS)

Re: Action!

[personal profile] red_roses 2015-03-11 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
O-Oh! [Ib takes it carefully and puts it in her bag.] Thank you!
in_praetego: ([;;;] Gonna start it over)

Action!

[personal profile] in_praetego 2015-03-12 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There's a quick bow of gratitude from both Yukio and Airi. ]

Sorry you had to come all this way. I appreciate it, though.

It's okay! I live in Goldenrod city, so it's not too far!
