[Day 184] Actually we DO know how those eggs got there... [OPEN]

[unwrittenformula]

Who: The New Daycare Couple N, Hilda, Anna,  a whole lot of Pokemon and Pokemon Eggs, and YOU
Open: Open!
When: Day 184
Where: The new Pokemon Daycare Center in the Bastion
What: There's a new house in the Bastion. People are moving in to it, and Pokemon are playing in the yard.
Format: action
Warnings: Lethal amounts of adorable

[It took a lot of shards, and a lot of work, but it was worth all of that in the end. With the eggs they'd found at the broken Daycare Center getting so close to hatching, and their Pokemon numbers growing, staying in the apartments was just not going to continue to be a viable option. So the two trainers put their heads together, and after a lot of discussion, planning, counting shards and re-planning they had managed to come up with an entirely new Daycare Center of their own, complete with a yard and living area on the second floor.

And there it was, a new house standing on a new section of land in a slightly expanded Bastion, and after some shuffling around of personal belongings out of the tower apartments, N, Hilda, Anna, and all their Pokemon and eggs were successfully relocated to this new location.

So if anyone is making their way around the south quadrant of the Bastion today, this new house with its strange creatures playing happily in the yard is likely to catch your attention.

Come see what it's all about?]

... is that how it is in your world?

[blackblooded]

[Crona shrugs.]

Sometimes.

[unwrittenformula]

Can you speak to some one's soul?

[blackblooded]

Can't you?

[unwrittenformula]

Only to Pokemon. Humans... in spite of being one I actually feel quite disconnected from most of them.

[blackblooded]

You don't know how to deal with them. I didn't either. So I just killed them. Humans, I mean.

But... um... Maka said that the only reason I didn't know how to deal with people was because no one ever took the time to show me.

I-i-i-if you want, um. I... I could try and teach you.

[unwrittenformula]

[That... would probably phase some one who actually gave a fuck about humans more.

N just sort of blinks and completely glosses over what Crona just said.]

... you could do that?

[blackblooded]

[Even Crona knows that N should probably be concerned here.]

M-maybe. I could try.

[unwrittenformula]

[You underestimate N's own personal strangeness here, Crona.]

I do like learning new things. I'm not sure what use I would have for it, but it should be interesting none the less.

[blackblooded]

There are people here, you know? Knowing how to interact with them would help you here.

[unwrittenformula]

... I have Hilda. And AZ and Anna. Isn't that enough?

[N you are... special]

[blackblooded]

But they're not the only people here. There are other people you have to interact with. You're interacting with me right now and I'm not any of those people.

[unwrittenformula]

I suppose I am...

[N...]

[blackblooded]

You are. [Crona is going to just... reassure N that that is what is happening. Yes, they are in fact interacting.]

[unwrittenformula]

Are you alright talking to me? Not everyone else.

[blackblooded]

You need practice.

[unwrittenformula]

... I have a sinking feeling that Hilda would agree with your assessment.

[blackblooded]

Will Hilda practice with you?

[unwrittenformula]

I'm sure she would. She's known me longer than anyone.

[And she had to deal with his creepy "show up wherever you are and challenge you to a Pokemon battle" phase.

And then there was that whole thing with the Ferris Wheel in Nimbasa City that may or may not have been classified as a kidnapping.

Also he was sort of responsible for her taking on a Legendary Dragon, taming it, and forcing her to battle said dragon's other half while going a little insane because he felt like his ideals were being threatened.

... we're all so glad you're out of your awkward King of Team Plasma phase, N.]

[blackblooded]

[It's okay, Crona had some super awkward stages too.]

That's good. She'll be good at helping you.

[unwrittenformula]

[Awkward people ftw]

She's been pretty good at it so far. Not that we haven't had problems...

[blackblooded]

There are problems any time people try to interact. That's just how things are.

[unwrittenformula]

I do have to wonder why that is, though. Why is communication so difficult? Especially between humans? I rarely ever have a misunderstanding with Pokemon and yet with humans I find myself often stumbling over words and phrasing and many other small, minor details.

[blackblooded]

I don't know. I'm still learning how to deal with people.

I can deal with Ragnarok, you know. Maybe you just have to know people well enough to not stumble.

[unwrittenformula]

I have known Hilda longest out of anyone here. That does seem to make a difference.
