[Video] 01st Shot

[At first, there's an up close and personal view of a Snivy, curiously fiddling with the Pokegear. A woman calls and the grass-type drops it to go scampering off toward the source. A moment later, Mom Lalonde picks it up.]

Excuse her. Curiosity and mischief bundled into one creature seems to be a combination that yields...interesting results. One of them being the theft of communication devices.

[She shrugs, not really bothered by this. Actually, she looks amused by it.]

That being said, where am I? Not to be ungrateful for another chance at life, but this isn't quite what I expected to end up in.

[The Snivy climbs up onto Mom's shoulder, glancing haughtily at the 'gear.]

Though, the creatures we were given are pretty cute, I have to say. Wherever this is, it's not so bad.

[It can be a hell of a lot worse, anyway.]

[Wow that is so totally not what he meant. At all. And Christ what did his dad tell her?]

Well I...erm. [He scratches his cheek.] I...play the piano?

[SHE PUT HIM ON THE SPOT, IT WAS THE FIRST THING THAT POPPED INTO HIS MIND. HE'S SORRY.]

Anything I have the sheet music for, but I do have some stuff memorized too. Like...the Star Wars...theme. [He sure did admit to that, didn't he?] But not just stuff like that! I mean I can do some of the well known classics too. Like Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and In the Hall of the Mountain King.

[See? He's not a total nerd.]

Sometimes I write my own songs, but i wouldn't really say they are all that amazing or anything.

Uhh...no, unfortunately. I could probably figure it out though! Eventually...been a while since I have heard it.

[Kind of hard to pick something out by ear when you haven't heard it in years.]

Well I like to think I know her pretty well. We've been friends for four or five years now so...um. [He trails off.]

Hey, random question but you don't remember being here before, right?
ghostytrainer: (i'm listening‚ what's up?)

No reason. Forget I asked.

[He smiles and waves a hand in front of him. Never mind, never mind. He's not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing...]

But yeah, like I as saying I know her pretty well. obviously not as well as you but you don't get to be best friends with a person by not knowing anything about them.
ghostytrainer: (oh no she's hot.)

[...fuck.]

No. I mean, we are friends, yes but it's...not a "just friends" thing anymore.

[Suddenly his nervousness around you makes perfect sense, huh Mom?]
ghostytrainer: (what? no! that's not how it went!)

[It's a good thing John wasn't drinking anything just now. He would have chocked, judging by the look on his face.]

It's not like that! We're dating but we aren't doing anything like that!
tentacletrainer: (I'll admit it. That was clever.)

What he meant to say, mother, is that we're engaged, but we aren't doing anything like that.
ghostytrainer: (what? no! that's not how it went!)

[personal profile] ghostytrainer 2012-12-21 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Well yeah, but not for a while!
ghostytrainer: (surprise noodle lips.)

Well I like kids s-- that's not the point! The point is that won't happen for several years so it's really a non-issue right now!

[A beat.]

And I haven't been keeping secrets from you I just figured that was something Rose would want to tell you herself. Which...she did. And now you know.
ghostytrainer: (welp.)

Err... four...teen...

[Suddenly this is awkward to admit again. And here he thought he was over that.]

Well, I am at least. For a few more months, anyway.
ghostytrainer: (maybe it'd be better if i shut up.)

Yeah it... [He sighs, seeming to shrink a little. Of all the people to say that, Mom stabs his confidence the deepest.] wasn't something I had planned on doing when I did it? It just kind of...happened.
