05 ☣ video/action for route 7

[The feed opens on Buster, glowing. Red looks mildly annoyed, because her marvellous evolution wasn't video-taped. Buster himself is shuffling around, trying to avoid the camera.]

Come on, don't tell me you're getting shy now. I told Nanako she'd get to see.

[Hey, it's a big step in the life of a Bagon! What if his wings are too small? WHAT IF HIS TAIL IS FAT, GUYS. Red says something, probably offensive, which at least gets Buster to stop actively running away. If the bitch can do it, so can he, dammit.

Buster caves and lets the glow settle over him, hunching down as if to pounce. It's clear that under the light the great big cocoon of a shell his body has been hiding in is cracking and peeling, his form doubling, tripling in size—Nero and Red are forced to back up, and finally the wings unfurl, huge red arcs sailing overhead. Nero chuckles, a little breathless, pleased and impressed.

The glow fades, revealing...Buster, bigger, huge, badder, teeth the size of knives, yellow eyes the size of dinner plates and a great big set of horns on either side of his head. And wings. Wings more than big enough to fly on. The remains of his shell are now a hard casing that shields his underside, protecting his belly from threats below. (Also his tail is not fat. In fact, it is muscular and sexy. You know, if you like dragons in that way.)

Buster's first order of business (after checking himself out) is to roar in Red's face. FUCK YOU, BITCH!!!!!!!

Aww yeah, that felt good.]


Hey, not ba—hey!

[The 'gear goes tumbling as Buster then lunges for Nero, snagging his teeth in the young man's jacket and...yanking him up and over the Salamence's broad back. Attack his trainer? More like taking him for a test drive. Nero barely has time to regain his composure before Buster unceremoniously—kind of trips over his own wing okay, you can evolve and look badass but dignity is apparently not included in the package, and—takes off. The last sound is Nero's exhilarated whoop and Red's unhappy snort.

The 'gear lands in the grass and switches off.]

Yes, really. I should wear a fragging sign- "Hi, my name is Cliffjumper. Yes, that's my real name. I'm an alien, comes with the territory."

And maybe you're just easy to piss off.

I'm not usually- you can blame this place for that. Normally I'm twenty feet taller and made of metal. And fine, as long as we're on the same page.

Eh, well, closer to twenty-five feet probably, but you got the basic idea.

[ He barks out a short laugh ] Trust me, getting used to the height was the least of my worries.

Travel sure takes a lot longer like this, though.

Oh man, kid. Don't even talk to me about the weather. How do humans survive in that kinda cold?

I need to get myself a good fire-type.

Forgive me if I have trouble gettin' used to the idea of a layer of fabric protectin' me from the elements.

[ Cliff doesn't mind. He can only snark at Ironhide for so long anyway ]

... Charmander?

... Yeah, I could see how that would be useful. Looks pretty awesome, too.

What do you mean "stop the snow"?

No kidding? That sounds almost too good to be true.
