[ The camera feed starts off a bit shaky. Inexperienced paws are handling the device, Katara's Riolu, Arnook. Oh hey look, there's Katara! Rolling backwards on... uh... her... roller blades...

Shouting out a panicked-- ]

Whoah, whoah, whoah! Wrong way, wrong way!

[ And then she's gone again, but you'll definitely hear a sound like someone crashing into bushes, followed by a very loud-- ]

Ow! Augh-- stupid--! Why can't I get this right?!

[ Annnnd then the feed whips around to show Katara in her Ace trainer attire and roller blades trying to get UNSTUCK from the bush she just landed in... backwards. There's a lot of snickering from the other side of the gear.

It seemed like a good idea at the time to FINALLY test out her roller blades, but... ]

[ Oh, oh, oh, BUT WAIT. Katara has noticed the snickering! ] Arnook?! Were you recording me?! TURN THAT-- [ STATIC. ]

Don't get all bent outta shape, princess, crashin's part of the fun! Just wait 'til you get your first real wipeout.

[And he doesn't say that at all sarcastically. Maybe fondly remembering crashes is a guy thing. Or just a Duncan thing.]

[ She does visibly deflate a little, blowing some hair from her eyes and tries a bit more comedic struggling. For the moment Riolu is still permitted to work the gear because she kinda can't. ]

I think I'll pass on the crashing part. [ WIGGLE ~~WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE YEAH~~ ] I didn't think this would be that hard.

[He'll just roll his eyes. She'll learn to appreciate earning her ~~battle~~ scars! In the meantime, he might as well help out, so she doesn't hurt herself even more.]

Try standin' up with 'em pointed sideways, that way they don't roll.

[ Duncaaaaaaaaan girls don't want SCARS unlessthey'renameisEva ]

She's surprised by the advice, but tries it out, because it's not like SHE knows what she's doing, obviously.

Give her a minute, okay-- WHOAH FU-- okay

okay

okay

Got it. Legs are shaking a little with the effort to keep STILL but she's got it. Looks ridiculous too, BUT AT LEAST SHE'S NOT MOVING. ] It worked! Thank you!

Don't mention it. To anyone.

[Yeah, he sounds oddly serious about that.]

I got a reputation to consider.

[ Quirking an eyebrow in confusion here. ] You WANT people to think you're... um... [ She's not gonna flat out call you a jerk dude, because wow rude.

But she was THINKIN' it. ]

[ And, well, if that's what you want? But Katara can see that you're not totally rotten now. So have fun never living this or any future acts of kindness down. Ever. She's trying to subdue the grin into a smile. ]

If you're sure...

Duncan: Really? You're really doing this?

Re: Video;

Course I'm sure. I just got here, I don't need people thinkin' I'm soft.

Besides, I just didn't wanna have to listen to you try to climb out of a bush all day is all.

[ She's still not buying it, Duncan, but she definitely colors at that comment. ] Well, thanks to you that won't be a problem. [ There's a pause, and then-- ] Are you and your Pokemon getting along any better?

Bitey's still gotta learn who's boss, but the little runt's gettin' there. Only bit me three times today.

I figure lettin' him run around and fight everything that moves is helpin' him get some of the aggression outta his system.

[Seriously, all the power levelin' going on here. Not that Duncan knows it, he just read the part where these weird little animals are supposed to fight each other and went from there.]

That's... progress...? [Uncertain agreement, not questioning.

Well slightly questioning, but she feels your pain. :| She has a Marowak that used to express her feelings with her bone club when she was a wee little Cubone.]

That's a good idea. So it's working, so far?

Re: Video;

More or less. Not like either of us is gonna complain though. Bitey gets to wreck stuff, and for some reason there's geeks who'll even pay me for beating 'em. Sounds like a win/win to me.

You mean the trainers? Just be careful. If you lose you have to pay them, too.
