[Red doesn't use video very often. When you're mute, it's generally a null point. Today, however, there's a flicker of text- ]

I've been working on something. Let me know what you think.

[And video suddenly comes to life.]

[After making sure Spark the Mismagius is holding up the Pokegear properly, Red steps away. Staying in a city again has given her cause to dress up nicely once more, makeup applied and Boxer's battered jacket draped over a simple light blouse. That's by far the least interesting aspect about the scene she's in front of, however.]

[Behind her are her Pokemon, arranged with a variety of musical instruments. A Gardevoir is adjusting an electric guitar around her shoulders, while a Sylveon blinks open one sleepy eye from his stool by a harp. A Chikorita waves with one vine to the camera, using the other to hold up a Mandolin, and behind it a Blaziken is awaiting eagerly at a drum set. In the middle of it all, Switch the Chatot is on a perch preening.]

[All of this on a little section of sidewalk in Goldenrod. It's a nice set up, with Red having taken all morning to get it ready.]

[The woman in question goes over to an electric piano, takes a breath, and whistles. Well practiced, the Pokemon begin to play. Rousing herself, Switch begins to sing, her voice rising up beautifully in a mimicry of her trainer's lost one.]


I see the lights
dance on the bay
All of the dark falls away

A glow from the heights
glances along the water's skin
Nimble and bright, swallowed in

I'm always breathless to see
growing so slowly to greet me
where I end and where she begins...


[Switch sings to the end of the song, wing stretching out as she revels in the performance, but soon the notes fade away. Spark flicks off the gear, and her clumsy text comes next.]

we have been practin!

Some Pokemon can be really hard to find, can't they? I spent all day yesterday hoping that one in particular would let me find them, but it's harder than it looks.

I guess they can't all be eager.

Since I've been performing to an empty set for so long, maybe I'll let this performance be a bit more public.

Take 53.


[The post suddenly changes to video as Red sets it up against her backpack. Anyone looking past her might be able to recognize the dim layout of Union Cave at one of the many pools about. This one seems to be one of the largest, water disappearing into the darkness ahead past the little camp Red has set up.]

[There's a Chatot perched on her should as she goes to sit by the water's edge. After a few moments, some humming starts to echo throughout the cavern. It's a duet, the Chatot seeming to 'hum' along with.]

[Off in the darkness, something seems to shift it and makes the water ripple towards the shoreline.]

[Red's reply might come a bit late.]
