Cute and Fluffy Evil Overlord
|
ALL THE OOC Ben sat at the computer, humming quietly as he thought. Back here again, and there were quite a few moves he could potentially get taught to his companions. Not to mention the fact that Cookie Monster had gone haring off after some cat almost as soon as he'd let his pokemon out to run while he'd gone to check into a few things. By the time they'd caught up with her, she'd fried the poor thing and evolved, sitting in the alley and looking enormously pleased with herself. Ben wasn't nearly as amused. The nurse said that the cat would recover, though, which was a relief. But after that, he wasn't too inclined to keep her around for the moment. Considering he intended to do a bit of shuffling around before he went out made it a lot easier. He'd already called Leviathan out into the Black Tesla Pokemount ball, solving the issue of crossing the Loch, but he'd wanted to get a few things hashed out first. Black Tesla had finally gotten what he'd requested for the new Control Hub-Dex/Tech device put together, and he'd shipped his old tech and Dex over so that the data could be transferred as soon as he'd gotten in and found the message. Now, he had it back, and the voice system made referencing everything so much easier... Indeed, he'd found a few tricks Anubis and Jax could pick up, plus some tricks that Bercilak would do well to learn before he evolved into a Breloom someday, or he'd lose them. Elaine had a trick or three that might be good to pick up that she could now master due to her evolution and gaining the ghost type, though only one in particular interested him currently. And Inari had been making hints about those fire stones he'd had kicking about in his pack for ages now... So, a trip to the tutor seemed the logical first choice. So then, he sent Ross, Cal, Faith and Cookie back to the rang, pulling Jax out of the travel ball into a normal slot, humming idly as he waited a couple minutes for the pokemon he had requested in return, Inari, Elaine and Bercilak, were found and shipped to him. Once there, the whole team came out, including Mystique. No reason to leave her in the ball when the rest were getting to roam a bit, even if he didn't have anything to teach her here. "C'mere squirt." Anubis bent down to scoop the little red-tipped black fox and she huffed. "You'll get lost in that mist, otherwise...OW!" The lucario jerked back, eyes blazing slightly, as he nursed a paw that had just had a mouthful of needle-sharp teeth sunk into it. Sure, it didn't really actually hurt him, being part steel, but still, it stung. "Mysti, what...oh." Ben turned to make a grab for the fox himself, then drew back as her Aura flared in a somewhat familiar fashion. "...right." He sighed, rubbing at the bridge of his nose. More evolution? "I can handle myself, thank you very much..." Mystique glowed and shifted, form altering in seconds, as she reared back, over doubling in height in the process. Crimson eyes met the lucario's as the dark fox straightened up, looking down her sharply pointed muzzle at the fighter. "And who are you calling a squirt, hmm?" she added in a purr, shaking out her new, thick mane of red. She circled the jackal pokemon, eyes glowing slightly as she looked down at him now, examining him almost acquisitively. "Whoa now. Down, girl." Ben didn't like where that aura was trending. Mystique pouted a little, but subsided for the moment. Her eyes still remained fixed on Anubis, however, offering rain checks. The lucario shifted uneasily under the stare, rubbing the back of his neck in an unconscious imitation of his trainer. "What is it with evolution into things that suddenly start talking comprehensibly?" Ben muttered, shaking his head. First Anubis, then Elaine, now Mystique. Inari fluffed his tails out as he sat nearby, yawning. 'Don't look at me. I've always been capable of comprehensibility.' A sly smirk flitted across his face as he added, 'Though I wouldn't object to the idea of evolution anyhow...' Ben snorted at the unsubtle hint. "Tutor first, Inari. For everyone." For the data that the dex had regurgitated about Mystique's new form had included a trick that he'd like her to know now that she apparently could pick it up... Once all the tutoring had been handled, Ben recalled everyone but Inari, letting the kitsune coil like a cat around his ankles as he returned to the PC. Jax was placed back into the mount ball, so that she stayed with him, even if not on his team, and he sent the shroomish and frosslass back to the ranch. Lancelot and two of his new acquisitions came out to replace them, appearing in the center. He flinched a little at the sharp snarl and hiss that came from the canine and turtle that appeared. The electrike, he'd gotten from someone named Jared, because the trainer was going to do some studies or something, and didn't want his pokemon to waste away in pokeballs while he was at it. There had been no comment upon when they might return, either. "Easy..." He dug into his supplies, pulling out some of the watmels he'd collected over time, and offered one each to the three pokemon. Lance, looking aloof and superior, took his quietly, watching as the pup sniffed one suspiciously, and the turtle attacked hers as soon as it rolled into reach. "Alright, Raiken, Jared had to go away for a while...but he didn't want you to be stuck in a pokeball forever or something...so I'm going to take care of you for now, all right?" He resisted the urge to try to pat the canine, recalling the warning that had accompanied the canine. "I'm Ben. While you're with me, you can stay on the ranch. I'm sure Joule and Cookie Monster would be perfectly happy to get to know you and try to help you out with mastering your electricity." The growls didn't subside, but he heard the sound of the berry getting eaten, so he took that as a good enough for now, and turned his attention to the turtle, reaching a hand out cautiously. He flinched and yanked it back just in time as she answered with another hiss and a snap of her beak that probably would have removed fingers had they been there still. Ben sighed a little, rolling another berry at her for good measure. Her aura was almost impossible to read, weighted down with age, yet not, and foreign to boot. "Well then..." He was interrupted as that familiar flare that had engulfed Mystique covered the turtle. "..." He tilted his head a bit as the shell morphed into a thick armor plating over her entire back and she also increased her size and mass. "Wonder if it's something in the mist," he muttered as the glow faded and the turtle snapped her much larger beak a few times experimentally, eyes turning his way again. 'I wouldn't even consider it, milady.' The blind trainer started slightly as Lancelot spoke up abruptly, moving between him and the turtle. There was silence a moment, then the turtle turned away, pretending indifference. Ben frowned a little, and recalled her and the electric pup, sending Raiken back to the ranch, shaking his head a little. For now, he'd rather keep the turtle with him, until he was sure she wasn't going to go on a rampage. "So, Lance, you interested in some exploring?" He smiled faintly at the hmph, able to sense the interest of the warrior despite his seeming aloofness. "Thought it could be interesting, anyhow. Going to go and explore the rocky area around Crysanthum, then maybe see if I can't get across to Yorek. And then, who knows." At least the gallade was loosening up at last...but travel meant braving the loch. He pushed the memory of what had happened last time out of his head with a shudder. No point in worrying about it...Neeruey surely wouldn't come after him again unless he searched. Right? 'Ahem...' Warm fur brushed against his leg, paws stepping onto one foot, an air of long-suffering patience radiating from the little fox as he looked up at his trainer. Ben blinked, then chuckled weakly. "Oh yeah. Right, Inari. Sorry..." he dug into his pack and rummaged around for one of the two yellow-red stones that were in there, finding them easily enough, due to the faint heat they always radiated. "Here. Thank you for being so patient." It was just as well Jax was in the travel ball for the moment. She'd always been extra jumpy around the firefoxes. 'No...thank you...' The kitsune touched a paw to the stone, and energy flared one last time, flooding the kit and altering his form in an instant. 'Ahhh...that's more like it.' Ben rocked back slightly, as the strength of the mental voice increased and deepened. Nine tails flicked as he preened a little, stretching and admiring his ivory coat. Ben discarded the now cold, gray stone, hiding a smile of amusement at the prideful tone. After a few minutes, he sent the kitsune back to the ranch as well, and almost on a whim, pulled the twins out. He released them, giving each a scratch and a smile. "How have you two been?" Twin yaps answered him and he laughed, leaning back to let them play for a bit. It was getting late anyhow, and he'd rather get some rest in the center before heading out to travel the loch. Not that he wasn't looking for any excuse to put that off a little longer, really. The snarls escalated, and he frowned a little, wondering if he should intervene as Selene pounced and pinned Phoebus. However, any thought of such was again forestalled by that glowing that had changed so many of his pokemon. Phoebus shifted, eyes glowing with a violet light as he lifted Selene off him with a growl. 'I said, get off!!' Ben rubbed at his temples as the newly evolved espeon rolled to his feet, still seeming to not have realized that he had changed at all. "Figures..." he muttered, going to check the time, as Selene howled indignantly and started to glow a moment later herself. However, her form was different, with sleek black fur and a thick, fluffy tail. Ben cocked his head a little. "Huh. Sun just set, I take it." No one was listening to him, however "No fair! Dirty pool!" she barked, as Phoebus blinked, losing control of his foundling telekinesis in his surprise at her evolution, and realizing she was floating in the air. She landed lightly, golden rings pulsing with her irritation as she shook herself out, glaring. "No more tricks." Ben shook his head a little, and just gave up. 'You say that, and you're the one going and evolving in the middle of things...' Phoebus whined, ears slicking back. Pot calling kettle? "You did it first!" came the immediate retort. Selene wasn't about to let him get the better of her. 'I did?!' Ben resisted the urge to facepalm or burst out laughing at Phoebus' shock. He was managing to get the gist of Selene's side of the conversation from the psychic's responses and it was somewhere between sad and funny. Poor Phoebus. But still. Evolution was apparently in the air. "Definitely something in the mist..." Still...the two of them were kind of cute. "Congrats you two. Won't your parents and grandparents be surprised..." He could only imagine. And anything to delay the setting out to get across the loch. Fwee for random RP. Looking for any I might be able to net outside of what I got from berry-ing 'mons and stuff? Maybe?
