21st roar [ video ]

[ The feed opens to a triumphant Lucario face. Behind Strike is the blue Olivine sky, framing Lucky and Skarmory's bulky frames as three of the girls of Leon's team relax on the sand. ]

I am with eggs.

[ Skarmory blinks, surprised, while Lucky rolls over onto her back and thumps her tail happily, raising clouds of dust. ]

Congratulations.

Why are you announcing it?

Why shouldn't I? Does it upset you? You've had a clutch of your own.

[ Skarmory clucks, as if indignant, turning her head away. ]

'Upset'? Upset's a strange emotion to give me. Eggs are the most natural thing in the world, after all; there's nothing to feel strongly
about.


And yet, you seem unhappy.

I'm not.

Skarmory's clutch is only three now, maybe that's why.

[ Lucky's simplistic statement draws a cluck-hiss like sawblades. ]

A clutch and a mate. A mate I cared for.

Ha, when you weren't busy clucking about his wingspan.

[ Strike's body language is teasing, but Skarmory lets her head drop to the sand. ]

I wish I'd gotten to keep them.

Why? It's the way of things; they need to see the world. Boss didn't even sell them.

[ With a sigh like wind through a pipe, Skarmory turns her attention to the Arcanine who's busy sunning her stomach. ]

What about you, Lucky?

Me? I'm not sure. Boss hatched me, and you all took care of me, and Strike is a good sister.

That's all? You have a brother and a mother. Flare and Ari.

I like them! But my family is you.

[ Seemingly annoyed, Skarmory reaches over and shuts off the feed with a precise jab of her beak. ]

Yeah, that's what we do.

[He eyes the Arcanine for a moment.]

Sometimes others come here that lost their family when their traners disappeared. I think that's pretty sad. I wouldn't want to split with them if my trainer leaves.

I guess so. I try not to think about it too much.

[He tilts his head a little.]

We got one like you a while ago, big fire dog. You're called Arcanine, right?

[He opens his mouth lightly in response, mimicking her.]

My name's Aidan, I'm a Vulpix.
