paladinlost: (open-mouthed)
Everyone, look at the wonderful meal my team prepared for me! Is it not by far the tastiest-looking meal you've ever seen?

[Wow, Cecil sure sounds enthusiastic about his meal today. Overly enthusiastic, even, to the point that most of it seems faked. Just like a father loudly praising his child's particularly ugly macaroni artwork to the skies when witnesses are present.

Which is a surprisingly appropriate comparison, as the "meal" he now shows to the world only looks the part when compared to tar-coated cement. The chicken seems raw, the barbecue sauce has fuzzy grey and green bits, the pasta could be recognized as overcooked twenty paces away, the potatoes would easily replace the aforementioned cement...]

Why, it looks so wonderful, I cannot bear to ruin it with a bite! Perhaps I should freeze it, and keep it intact on a shelf as a testament to their talent-

[Multiples annoyed grumblings can heard, and a blue tentacle moves into the frame, holding a fork and waving it angrily. No, trainer, we prepared this so you could show the world our boundless talent and enjoy our efforts. You've done the first, now do the second. Or else.]

...If you all insist.

[The Pokégear is set down on the table and promptly picked up by one of the Pokémon present, allowing Cecil to appear on the screen, fork in hand. He hesitates for a few seconds, picks a piece of chicken up, brings it to his mouth, takes a wary bite...

His eyes quickly widen, and the Gear is promptly turned off just as a Lilligant calls out in alarm.]

[Question: What is worse than awakening deep within an unknown cave with no idea how you got there, again?

Answer: Awakening deep within an unknown cave with no Pokémon, no supplies, no Pokégear and no way to obtain any of those, of course.

In other words, Cecil would greatly appreciate some company and help right now. Preferably before those Zubats manage to eat him.]

paladinlost: (sighing)
[This would technically be a video, if there was enough light to actually see something. Cecil sounds resigned to his fate, if anything.]

I need a list of every single cave in Johto and Kanto that is not the Ice Cave, as I have to figure out where I am. The local Pokémon look strong, but- EEEEYAARGH!

[...Guess who's on the lowest level of Cerulean Cave and just met Mewtwo?]

paladinlost: (furious)
...eat no good for... ...ken, I can...

[The sound is terrible, words and static jumbled together between patches of silence. The image is not much better, with Cecil's shape being barely discernable at best. Something must have happened to that pokégear, but what?]

Cinn... ...types everywhere, but...

[The shape that is probably Cecil moves suddenly, as if it's turning around-]

...urf! Dragon...

[At that moment, the feed is cut.]


((ooc: Cecil is lost, his gear is in a pretty bad shape, and he's finding out that visiting Cinnabar Volcano with his weaker Pokémon was not a very good idea. Replies will come several hours later and discussions will be kept short IC.))

paladinlost: (dotdotdot)
[Some distance away, to the left of the (somewhat static-y) screen, a days-old Elgyem stands, panting and looking quite determined. To the right is a small plate, filled with tasty-looking berries. And between the two... a chair. A somewhat heavy-looking chair.

Now, a normal Pokémon would simply walk around the chair to reach the goodies, but Fu is obviously not a normal Pokémon. He's a paragon of strength and power! He's the standard by which all Pokémon should be measured! Which is why he bravely starts running and slams into the chair, in an attempt to move it out of the way.

It's quite obviously not working.]

Is that -ouch- truly normal behavior for -ow, dammit- Psychic-types?

[Poor Cecil (who will be staying offscreen, thank you) sounds completely baffled, and Fu apparently doesn't appreciate that. He turns around to look at his trainer, frowns, and literally launches himself at the protesting man. It would have been more impressive had it not been followed by a crack, a shout of surprise and a bout of wailing worthy of Whitney.]

...Does anyone know how to rid -ow- oneself of leftover static electricity? It makes dealing with him more -erk- complicated than it should be.
paladinlost: (angry)
[The ground near Blackthorn's south exit is scarred, marked by smoking craters of varying sizes. The earth is rumbling, disturbed by the force of a thousand great impacts over and over. The roars of powerful dragons can be heard, deafening all who are present to hear them. This could be the end of the world.

When Kayne and Mist argue, they argue hard.]

I need suggestions.

[Cecil Harvey does not sound happy. Cecil Harvey does not look happy, either.]

Middle name suggestions. Names for both males and females, preferably fitting for dragons. They must absolutely be easy to shout, especially when combined with a first and a last name. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

[In his defense, dealing with two Pokémon who settle a lover's spat with Draco Meteor would be enough to make anyone feel slightly tired.

Once the fight finally dies down, he'll be looking for Rosa. They need to talk plans.]
paladinlost: (dotdotdot)
[All Cecil had wanted was to check on the trenches one last time before going to bed. Surely that could not hurt? Thus, a few minutes before midnight, he'd gone down to the beach. But the moment he set foot on the sand, he found himself blinded by a flash of light. A flash of light that gave way to a very different beach, all of his belongings in a pile, and a purple Pokémon he found somewhat familiar.

...Well.]

If anyone in the vicinity has any alcohol to offer, I can trade homemade sandwiches for it.
paladinlost: (murderous)

[Today's view of Ecruteak's Pokémon Center appears perfectly normal: the usual music is playing, the receptionist's desk is clean, and Cecil is smiling, with his hands clasped together and his right eyebrow twitching and- erm.]

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is a Public Service Announcement.

[A strange squelching noise can be heard from behind him, apparently moving. He ignores it.]

A Tentacruel answering to 'Lester' was found in the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center's women's bathroom this morning, unharmed and bearing a copy of '649 Ways to Bond With Your Tentacruel', along with two pairs of female undergarments. If you have any information about Lester's owner, please contact the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center promptly. Your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.

[A tentacle slowly slides up his left arm, finally resting on his shoulder. He ignores it.]

In addition, the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center would like to apologize for the disturbance, and assures all of its clients that such incidents will not take place again in the future. Thank you for your time.

[Cecil's smile looks particularly frozen as he turns the feed off.]


paladinlost: (thoughtful)
[In the foreground, one Cecil Harvey, who is holding a few TMs and staring at them thoughtfully. In the background, one Kayne the dragonite and one Mist the Swablu, apparently arguing. Mist seems to be winning.]

How do you choose which of your Pokémon receive a particular Technical Machine? Normally, I'd simply buy two copies, but those were won from Gym leaders. I doubt they have the means to give each trainer more than one.

[The argument becomes louder and louder with each passing moment. A terrified Ralts climbs on her trainer's shoulder and clings to his hair.]

...As you can see, the potential users are having a slight disagreement. If anyone has a suggestion, I'd be happy to hear it.
paladinlost: (panicked)
[Cecil is out shopping in the Department Store. Again, you might want to say. But this time he holds the Pokégear with his left hand while the rest of his body is buried by bags and boxes of all kinds, and people can see a feminine hand adding more to the pile every so often.]

I would like to thank everyone who has sent me gifts. All of your choices were extremely thoughtful, and I have no doubt I will enjoy all of them.

[The feminine hand adds another bag. He waits until it leaves.]

I would also like to apologize to every trainer who might have wanted to challenge Whitney this afternoon. I was unaware that drying her tears would involve taking over her day. On my honor, I swear I will try to convince her to return to the Gym before nightfall.

[Another box, and this one hides his face from the camera. He sighs before turning the Pokégear off.]
