003 | Violet City | Video / Action;

[Greetings, Johto! This video is coming to you from some secluded part of the streets of Violet City, courtesy of PhantomCam™, and features one Yagyuu Hiroshi sitting comfortably on a bench beneath the shade of a tree, engrossed in a book with his backpack resting securely at his feet. Perhaps most notably, he's not wearing his yellow-and-black Regulars jersey today, which is largely because it's currently piled next to him on the bench in something vaguely approximating a nest, with what can only be a Pokemon egg resting safely inside.

Yagyuu, for his part, is mostly oblivious to the fact that he's currently on candid cam, but the reason for it quickly becomes apparent—the egg in its nest is beginning to rock gently from side to side, making vaguely egg-like noises, and gradually beginning to glow.

(Fortunately, Phantom is wise enough to the workings of Pokemon hatchings that he's taken the initative to record this for posterity, regardless of whether or not his trainer is as quick on the uptake about it.)

Another few moments pass, and now at last Yagyuu takes notice, setting his book aside and turning his full attention to watch as the egg wobbles, brightens, cracks—]



Vee! Eevee!

[—and yields a bouncing newborn Eevee, still snug and secure in the jersey-nest, taking her first look at the world.

Book completely forgotten now, Yagyuu carefully extends a hand to his newest Pokemon, letting her inspect him a minute; after a few courtesy sniffs and nudges, the Eevee hops out of her nest and climbs up into Yagyuu's lap instead, settling in to ensure his full attention as she carefully inspects the human who's going to be her trainer. A minute later, Yagyuu's hands come to rest on her back, stroking through her fur as he conducts an appraisal of his own. This is, after all, his first attempt at breeding a Pokemon, and he's clearly intent on thoroughly examining just how well it turned out.]


Ah, aren't you a friendly one. Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you, too.

[And as Yagyuu continues to fuss over his new Eevee, Phantom apparently decides that his work here is done, and switches the feed off.]

[ as much as Rise loves Eevee hatchings, she misses this recording, because she's got a Flareon happily cantering about the town of his birth. Perhaps it's nostalgia that demands his attention, perhaps it's the arrival of another member of his species--

Whatever it is, Pepper dashes off and Rise's quick on his heels, because it's rather easy to lose a Flareon. As it is, he slows his pace and comes to a rather graceful halt beside the bench, fluffy tail waving gently and one paw on Yagyuu's foot. He's perfectly serene, though he does twitch an ear back when his trainer's voice comes drifting his direction, followed shortly by Rise herself showing up. ]


Hey, Pepper, not everyone wants to pet you--

[a rushing of air before he replies-- the backdrop appears to be the sky, really. three guesses as to where he is now. the first two don't count.

a grin.]


Congratulations on your fatherhood.

[1... 2... 3...]

An Eevee!

[Oh, hey, it's that guy who's not Keisuke. And he got a new Eevee.]

Congrats on your Eevee!

[Someday Yagyuu will get used to having his personal space invaded by people's rambunctious Pokemon no he won't, but it is not this day, and the sudden approach of a Flareon manages to divert his attention away from his new Eevee and down to the newcomer.

Phantom, for his part, is looking highly displeased at a strange Pokemon being so close to his trainer and his Eevee, and is hunkering down with a threatening look in his eye.]


Did you lose something?

[...Familiar...individual...?]

[Of course Yukimura catches the recording, watching the video with keen interest.]

An excellent job, Yagyuu. It looks like it's turned out very well.

[Oh, look, it's Fuji-kun en route. Which is really only natural, considering who showed up yesterday.

Fuji may have just gone up another touch in Yagyuu's esteem, having made the same mad dash for Yuuta that Niou so recently made for Yagyuu.]


Ah, thank you, Fuji-kun. She is lovely, isn't she?

[video]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
It appears to be, Komaki-san. Are you fond of them?

[Voice]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you, Kihara-kun. I'm quite content with her.

[Yukimura is probably one of the few people who can read just how proud Yagyuu is at the moment--though his expression is still somewhat reserved, he's got the same look as the one he wears when he's just mastered a new move or formation or gamewinning strategy.]

Ah, thank you, Yukimura-kun. She seems quite strong and healthy already; I'll be looking forward to seeing how she progresses from here on out.

Oh, congratulations~

[video]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Why, thank you, Oshitari-kun. She's lovely, isn't she?

[video]

[identity profile] sfaccendato.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
She is quite lovely, yes. I assume this is your first egg?

[video]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
My first attempt at breeding one, yes. It's been about a week, I believe, since I acquired it.

[identity profile] restardom.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Pepper-- [ at the warning tone, the Flareon slowly turns around to face his trainer, before he gives Yagyuu's shoe a perfunctory sniff and trots back to Rise's side. ]

Honestly, you--

[ ... and she finally looks at the person Pepper's harassing. Oh. ]

Whoa-- Yagyuu-kun!

[identity profile] attrites.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Congrats! [ ... ] Is that the egg you've been carrying around for a while?

( video )

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
That's right, Kirihara-kun. It seems this one took about a week to hatch--though I'm told that's on the longer side of average for eggs in general.

( video )

[identity profile] attrites.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Really? You sure you didn't do something wrong?

[ ... ] Well, either way, it's cute. An Eevee, right?

[action]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Phantom continues to look affronted, advancing a step as if warning the Flareon to keep its distance; Yagyuu, meanwhile, is looking up as well--and putting a name to a face.]

Kujikawa-san. What a surprise to cross paths with you like this.

( video )

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Good things take time, Kirihara-kun.

[And she's going to be the best of the best, oh yes.]

Right. I admit I'm a bit surprised, though; I was expecting she'd turn out an Umbreon like Yukimura-kun's Aya, but it seems she'll have to start out as an Eevee first.

[video]

[identity profile] sfaccendato.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I see. Borrowed someone's to breed with, did you?

[video]

[identity profile] loseyoursenses.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
You'll have to train her well, Rikkai deserves nothing less. And she is a Rikkai-bred Pokemon, isn't she?

[And honestly, Yukimura's rather proud of him as well. Success looks good on Yagyuu.]

I'll come see her, if you don't mind.

[video]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
That's right. And she's Rikkai through and through.

[video]

[identity profile] usedlaserbeam.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Evidently so. She even seems to be quite attached to my jersey--I believe she's already fostering aspirations of being a regular, herself.

[Yagyuu making jokes? He must be pleased.]

Please do. She ought to meet her captain.

[ Pepper puffs up just as warningly, but doesn't budge. Rise, on the other hand, is already lighting up and trotting forward, because personal space invasion isn't as much of a concern to her.

Enjoy your carefully maneuvered designed-not-to-squish-Eevee-or-whack-anything-on-a-bench hug, Yagyuu. All idols are required to master this within the first year. ]


I knew you were here, but it's great to meet you in person!
