[Hey, it's Nero!]

[There's an egg balanced on his head...?]

[He seems perfectly unconcerned. It's an Axew egg, for anyone who might care to note. It is, specifically, a gift egg, from someone he dearly wants to freak out a little, because of Reasons.]

[He flashes the Earth badge.]

I'm about done here, the Gym was a pain. Gonna head back to Saffron. [Pointing to the thing on top of his head, which wobbles precariously.] I'm thinking about scrambled egg for lunch. If anybody's got any recipes, I'm all ears.

[Click. (And no worries, the egg is perfectly safe, but if you'd like to assume otherwise, feel free!)]

[private text message to Kyrie:]
Do you have time?

But! But what if it was you in the egg? You wouldn't want to be eated!

[ripped]

Well, if you take it from Pewter city, you can cut straight to Vermillion.

[A beat.]

I was thinking we could go to Saffron together. [...] That is, if you still wanna go to the beach.

[havemercy]

Together?

[ The typical hopefulness of her voice returns in that single word alone. ]

I mean, I'd like to go to the beach, if that's alright with you. [ And make up for all of this lost time with him as well. ]

[ripped]

Of course it's... [He trails off into a pause, then:] I miss you.

[Another pause.]

Guess it's pretty useless for me to apologize now, but I'm sorry I was an ass to you.

I don't have much of a choice. I'm fried if I don't.

You're one of those vegan people, huh.

[ripped]

Again with this games crap. You and the kid. Is it actually relevant?

[video]

[darksoulwithlight]

What about special fried rice? Got any soy sauce?

voice;

[ripped]

Serious? [He doesn't look bothered. The egg is in his hands now, and he drums his fingers against the shell.] Find a nest or something?

[video]

[ripped]

I could get some. What makes it special?

[video/private]

[ripped]

The hell is tama-go-whatever?

[havemercy]

I've missed you as well. [ It's easier for her to admit the truth. ] I was the one behaving in that manner when all you wanted to do was protect me, protect us, so please don't feel bad.

I thought they keep some things the same, like gym leaders and their general team's type.

[doitrockapella]

And in for a scramble no matter what you do.

[ripped]

Whoa, whoa, hold up, I think you're mistaking me for the Iron Chef or something. Three ingredients max, and one of them's gotta be 'eggs'.

[video]

[ripped]

Not that I noticed. Got a pretty good TM for beating him, though. I heard that beating his elite team nets you something better, but damn if I know what.

text;

[ripped]

Exactly. I can't afford to shell out too hard on this one, so I just have to hope things don't get egg-splosive.

audio;

[ripped]

[Well, he doesn't regret it, exactly, but his need to be by her side has come to trump his convictions.]

All right. I'll be there in a few days, so hold tight, okay? [There's a moment of silence, and when he speak again, it's clear he's smiling against the mouthpiece.] Get yourself a nice swimsuit.

[usedshooshpap]

My starter is a Sneasel. She would find them and it was just easier to eat that shit on the road instead of forage forever.

[video]

[darksoulwithlight]

Hell if I know, do I look like the domestic sort? We used to eat a lot of take out.

[ video ]

[getthehorns]

Nice hat. Hope it doesn't double as breakfast.

It'd be a shame if the backlash egg-ceeded your egg-spectations.

Though I admit, I'm curious what you're aiming to achieve with this little egg-cercise.

voice;

[ripped]

Well damn, now I wanna try. Are they any bigger than chicken eggs?

voice;

[usedshooshpap]

Couldn't tell you. I've never had the privilege of seeing a chicken or its egg in person.

[video]

[ripped]

[A snort, but it's the amused kind.]

Nah, didn't peg you for much of a cook. But there's not much point calling it 'special' if it's just eggs and rice with some soy sauce.
