[025] Video/Action Ecruteak (Burned Tower)

[gochuugoku]

[Good evening, Route, tonight China can be found within the Burned Tower. He's stepping along the floorboards carefully, so they won't collapse under his weight. China's voice can be heard off camera.]

This is where the three Pokemon were resurrected by the legendary Ho-Oh, aru... I wonder where they are n--Wa!

[One of the boards collapses under China's foot with a loud noise, causing him to stumble.]

[FFFFFFFFFFFF]

Are you okay?!

You really ought to be more careful. You wouldn't want to break a hip!

--?! A-are you okay...??

[China puts a hand on the wall to help steady himself.]

Y-Yes, I just stumbled is all, aru. The floor here isn't very stable.

I'm too young to have that happen, aru! [He pouts until he realizes who's talking to him.]

Oh, Izaya? When did you get back, aru?

[video]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

[Not really...]

I-I'm fine, Kisa, a floorboard just collapsed is all, aru. [He pulls himself up.]

I thought I was being careful, but I guess it wasn't enough.

[ >(((( You're in my home base, good sir.]

Stick to the right side. The floor is less likely to break. [Because he's fixed the basement on that side so the floor is at least supported.]

[video]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

Um, alright. [He's about to move to the right side until he pauses.]

How do you know anyway? [A bit unsure.]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I've fixed the basement on that side. The floor has support beneath it.

[video]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

Oh. [Now he'll be moving to the right.]

Did they hire you to restore the tower or something, aru?

[video]

[exeggutorhead]

Yao? You're not hurt, right?

[video]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

N-No, I'm fine, aru. I just tripped is all.

[Then as China gets up, a Pokemon appears behind him. It's a Gengar with a grin stretching across its face.]

Gengar~

[His brow arched - he doesn't recall sharing his name with China before - but he also knows there are a number of reasons it could be possible. So for now, he'll let it go.]

Young in comparison to...? And let's see. It was.... Nearly two weeks ago.

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

Do I look old?

Oh. Do you remember your previous stay, aru?

[parkour]

You are much older than you look, are you not?

[He pauses.] One of them, it seems.

video;

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

No...

Ah. Then you do not remember that one other time, aru. Not much has changed really, except I'm a trainer now instead of a breeder.

[video]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

[That is an understatement.] Are you sure you should be walking around there? It looks really dangerous.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

No. It's something I decided to do on my own.

[video]

[biteisbigger.livejournal.com]

B-but you're not hurt...?

[video]

[exeggutorhead]

If you're sure. What're you looking for in there anyway--

[Woah hey there Gengar from nowhere, Envy is not fond of your species. Especially not around China after that whole possession thing that happened a while ago. He makes a somewhat alarmed face.]

Hey, behind you--!

[ video ]

[uuing]

U-... uu-! Are you okay..? Did you fall?

video;

[parkour]

No? [He lets out a laugh. Disbelieving? Maybe just a little.] I must have been mistaken, then.

...That one other time. I see - and what exactly happened then?

[video]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

I'm just exploring since this is where-- Hm? [He turns his head and...]

Argh! [He stumbles backwards a bit, before a frown comes onto his lips.] Nie! How many times have I told you not to do that, aru?!

[The Gengar walks over closer and wraps China in a hug.]

Gengar~

[ video ]

[gochuugoku.livejournal.com]

I-I just lost my footing there, aru! I'm alright.

[He pulls himself up.]

Sorry to make you worry, aru.

[video]

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy still looks a little wary, but not nearly as worried as before since it looks like China is familiar with this particular Gengar.]

So that one's yours?
