Word Count: 627 Summary Reward The fishing pond just outside of Moorfeldt was glittering silver in the moonlight, enticing Celeste to wander closer, bathing herself in the light as well. She hadn't been able to sleep, not that that was a surprise anymore. The cool grass and inviting pond were a way to distract herself from the howling night terrors in her skull. She sat down by the pond, watching the light dance along its surface, trying to force herself to relax, when a head broke the water. Large eyes stared curiously at her from above a wide bill, and Celeste stared back, offering a smile. "Psyduck: The Duck Pokemon." The sudden computerized voice made her twitch slightly and frown. She'd forgotten she was wearing the headphones plugged into the poketech, pokedex, and escape rope hybrid that was the collar around her neck. She'd also forgotten that psyduck hadn't been her pokedex before now. The psyduck tilted its head slightly at her, and floated a little closer to the shore. Celeste's smile came back as she admired the colour the moonlight had dyed its feathers, and how the way its normally-tiny pupils widened from the low light gave its eyes a seemingly clever gleam. "Hey, there, fella..." It gave a little, curious quack and moved even closer, close enough for her to gingerly reach out and stroke its head. "You can't sleep either, huh?" A sound from further out caught her attention, and she gasped as a fish leaped out of the water. It scales shone as its body twisted in the air, as if dancing, before it dove back down and vanished with a splash. "Barboach: The Whiskers Pokemon." Celeste frowned again. She retracted at her hand, or tried to, but when her new friend quacked at her and looked up at her in a cute, pleading fashion, she obliged and kept gently petting his head. "Okay, okay..." She chuckled. This seemed to start drawing attention, as another sound made her look up to see what looked like a very large lily pad drifting along the water, only a hint of its usual green colour detectable under the moon's light. The silver shine almost made it look like a flying saucer that had landed on the pond. "Lotad: The Water Weed Pokemon." The lotad floated over the shore and then toddled up onto the land on its six, stubby legs, where it looked up at her innocently. Celeste reached out and scratched the plant pokemon under the chin, giggling. "Well, hi, sweetie..." A faint clicking drew her attention to a shape some distance away on the shore a moment later. A crab pokemon's claws clicked in an energetic rhythm, scuttling back and forth, though it stopped and ducked down a little when it noticed her looking. She obliged and glanced away, and the music started up again after a few moments. "Krabby: The River Crab Pokemon." The faint sound of something sliding out of the water was all the warning she had before something soft and slightly slimy leaned against her hip. She looked down to see a little slug pokemon looking back, right before it crawled into her lap and curled up there about as well as something of its shape could curl up. "Shellos: The Sea Slug Pokemon." Enough. Celeste reached up and pulled her headphones off, then undid her collar with a faint click and set it aside for good measure. She didn't blame the piece of technology, but the brevity and simplicity of its automatic labels was getting to her. Tonight, it was the clever duck, the leaping dancer, the swimming saucer, the shy musician, the cuddly lap-invader, and her, under the moonlight. That was all she needed. She'd deal with the world's labels in the morning. Edited by Vulpix Windchimes, Aug 30 2012, 01:39 PM.
