miniworth[ Forward-Dated to the evening of September 15, Thursday, nearing twilight ]
[ The video turns on, and Miles looks concerned. It's just about nearing sunset in Goldenrod right now, the streetlights and store signs flickering to life, and the sky a deep red-orange overhead. He's alone. There is no sign of Ken Amada, but there is no comment on that. He just looks concerned. ]
Has anybody seen a Mareep wandering around Goldenrod? An acquaintance of mine recently departed from Johto and left me it's Pokémon Ball with Nurse Joy, but it was empty.
[ He's walking as he speaks, but he doesn't seem to notice the yellowish blob of something fluffy approaching him from behind. The camera catches the Mareep in question (and it's a very mean-looking Mareep, mind you) sneaking up to his new trainer, but Miles is not even looking at the screen. ]
... If you see him, please tell me and don't go near him. I don't think it's sa--
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee--
[ The video ends here. ]
[ Twenty minutes later. ]
[ It takes a while for the noise to fade from the screen. When the feed clears up, Miles is sitting up on a bed in the Pokémon Center with an Espeon (an Espeon! The Eevee had evolved just a few minutes ago!) on his lap. His hair is singed and there are bandages--definitely not a pretty sight. He sounds very, very tired as he speaks again. ]
... I found him.
[ ooc: it is late in the evening, tags might take awhile ;; ]

Date: 2011-09-15 07:26 am (UTC)Also, Clover is going to bury all that worry under so much scolding and grumbling and this frowny face. But she'll give in to the worry later.]
...
I told you I was gonna come with you. But did you listen? Nooooooo. And now look what happened.
[An exasperated sigh. She leans back. The Roselia is a far more accurate epitome of worry.]

Date: 2011-09-15 07:31 am (UTC)... And he's there now.
Standing there. Awkwardly.
... There's a strong possibility he has lost the hang of the mysterious art known as "talking to someone you like face-to-face".]

Date: 2011-09-15 07:35 am (UTC)Mm, if we both got hurt like this, it'll be hard to take them on walks. [ The Espeon harrumphs at Clover. ]

Date: 2011-09-15 07:38 am (UTC)Miles raises a tired eyebrow when he sees Shelly. ]
... Hello.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-09-15 07:39 am (UTC)She balls her bandaged hands into fists - then winces, completely spoiling the effect. The Roselia raises his flower-hands, but Clover shakes her head at him.]
Ugh, that thing needs to be sent to a boot camp for Pokémon!

Date: 2011-09-15 07:42 am (UTC)[ Miles is just quiet, like he's been ever since Ken left the group. With his newly evolved Pokémon--he's a little curious why it's an Espeon, but since the sun's yet to set, he figures it was still considered "daytime"--crawls under his arm, and he pets her head. ]

Date: 2011-09-15 07:48 am (UTC)Well, at least she was no longer glaring at his Espeon. SHE MAY OR MAY NOT BE JEALOUS BECAUSE SHE WANTS AN EEVEE SO BAD.]
From now on, I'm in charge of that crazy sheep. [She points a finger that has completely disappeared under white gauze at him.] And don't say no. I don't care, I'm carrying it.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-09-15 07:59 am (UTC)Once she's sure he won't move again, the Espeon settles back down by his head. ]
(no subject)
Date: 2011-09-15 08:03 am (UTC)But honestly? Clover's too tired, and doesn't want to make things worse.]
Just watch me.
[And in a lower voice, which is a lovely mix of worry and frustration and defensiveness:]
I'm not letting it do this to you again.

Date: 2011-09-15 08:30 am (UTC)I'll be okay.
...ugh I dun wanna do homework >_<
Date: 2011-09-15 08:34 am (UTC)[Now she's just worried. Because yelling and being angry take a lot of energy.]
At least let me hold on to it till you're completely better.
/doing homework, and a test retake in 6.5 hours. 8D
Date: 2011-09-15 08:39 am (UTC)[ He's all Miles has left of a man whom he genuinely liked, who Ken tried and failed to save the life of, who was already dead in his world but still had friends here... and just a person who no longer exists, here or in Iwatodai.
He is not letting go of the sheep. ]

Date: 2011-09-15 01:05 pm (UTC)... Nemesis could probably take that Mareep. Do you want to borrow her?

Date: 2011-09-15 01:54 pm (UTC)I won't take him out of the Ball for a while. When I do, I'll have Tal with me.
