[Remember a few months ago when Shaun ended up with a bunch of eggs?

Well now there's five more than there was last time.

And rather than mildly confused, Shaun looks pretty deadpan about it this time around.]

I've got some eggs again, if anybody wants one. There's three Poochyenas, a Houndour, four Lillipups, a...Charmander, I think, and then I think there's three Munnas and two Spoinks.

Oh, but I'm saving one of the Munnas for my friend because I promised him one. So there's two left.

[Private to Tobias]

Hey Tobias, I got a Munna egg for you, if you still want one.

((OOC: This is an IC post for the OOC egg post from a few days ago. There's still a few eggs left if anybody still wants one.))

[... Huh.]

I'd be interested in one of the Munnas.

[Research has indicated this is a good idea.]

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Okaaay...

What's your name?

[Video]

[me_first]

Ah. I'm... I'm Royce Bracket.

[He stares into the camera, perhaps a... bit too long.]

[Video]

[neededlassie]

[....................

You know what, this might as well happen.]

I'm Shaun Mars.

Are you okay?

[Video]

[me_first]

Hm? Ah. No. I'm fine.

[He blinks and flicks his gaze away.]

I'm not the best at... social graces, not at all. Not my department, really.

[That's... sort of an apology?]

[Video]

[neededlassie]

[That's okay, at least it's an answer. And it seems to put Shaun a little bit more at ease.]

Oh, okay.

Did you just get here?

[Video]

[me_first]

I've been here a bit... over a month.

[He looks over his shoulder and Ampere, his Magnemite, buzzes in approval.]

Yes, that's right.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Well that's still not very long, I guess.

Is that your Magnemite?

[...Is he going to have to hold your hand through this entire conversation, s2g]

[Video]

[me_first]

Yes, this is Ampere.

[The little Pokemon floats on-screen, waving. Hello small human.]

I started with them. They've been very helpful.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

That's good. I get along really well with my starter, too. Her name is Susie.

The Munna eggs are from my Musharna, Bella. [The Musharna obligingly floats one of the pink-and-flowered eggs to Shaun, who cradles it in the arm that's not holding a creamsicle orange egg.] She's a really great pokemon.

[me_first]

I've been told they're good for sleep. I'm somewhat concerned that my traveling partner hasn't been resting.

[... And him, but shh.]

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Ohh. Yeah, that was how come my friend gave me Bella, because I wasn't sleeping good.

They like helping their trainers by eating nightmares. [He looks over at Musharna.] Don't you, girl?

Muuu~

[Video]

[me_first]

That's good. It'll be handy to have something like that around.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

You gotta make sure they're not eating too much, but I've never had a problem with Bella getting sick.

I'll send you the egg after while when I head to the pokemon center.

[Video]

[me_first]

That's fine. I'll pick it up when I get there myself. We've been out training.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Oh, really? Where are you guys training?

[Video]

[me_first]

We were at Union Cave. Red wanted to pick up a Lapras.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Oh, cool! I have a Lapras. They're really good pokemon.

Did you find one?

[Video]

[me_first]

We did. Red's... Red's humming lured it. She was a singer, so it makes sense that she'd lure the musical Pokemon. This might require some more testing, though.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

That's pretty neat, actually. If they're as lonely as the Pokedex says they are, I can see why they'd want to come near somebody who sings.

[Video]

[me_first]

Yes, so it says... though some of the information in here seems... either badly tested or just outright inaccurate.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Well I guess, but I think the Lapras thing is true because I haven't seen very many of them. And none of them in the wild.

[Video]

[me_first]

Maybe. We'll have to see if we can find more.

[Video]

[neededlassie]

Are you gonna teach them all Surf?

[Video]

[me_first]

Maybe. I think my Dratini knows Surf, but I don't think she can really use it yet.
