[Route 29] Video/Action - Goldenrod City ((backdated to the 11th!))

*the video clicks on to the.... back of Sion's head? Looks like one of his pokemon is playing with the 'Gear again... In any case, it's only a moment before Sion turns and spots the mischief-maker, and reaches out to grab the pokegear with a sigh*

...Really, River, you know that isn't a toy.

*"Awooo~" the dragonite makes an exaggerated sigh, but relinquishes the device to its trainer*

It seems I can't let you out unsupervised for even a moment...

Well, since it seems I'm making a recording whether I intend to or not, I've been curious, would anyone happen to.... hmm?

*he pauses glancing down at something at at his feet*

What.....? How on earth...?

*if anyone's curious as to what he's talking about, there's a long, drawn-out "sloooooooow~" from off-camera. Sion just looks kind of dumbfounded, still staring down*

Don't tell me.... you couldn't have come all the way from Azalea....

*a friendly "pooooooke~" is the only response he gets. Sion blinks for a few more moments, then remembers the 'gear in his hand and gives it an apologetic smile*

Ah, I suppose my question will have to wait for another time.

*and with that, the feed ends*

*...frowns just a tiiiiny bit as he tries to guess from Aran's expression what he's thinking...*

....if I tell you something, will you not tell Ryner, or anyone else who might mention it to him?

[Another questioning look, but a nod.]

I don't want him to worry needlessly, when it's something he can't do anything about, anyway.

But in any case... Back in my world, it's a long story, but you could say I've found myself in a similar sort of situation. And that's precisely what I've been trying to do. Bit by bit, gaining a little more control at a time... it's risky, but what other choice do I have?

So I thought, perhaps in your case...

[Well, learning that you're going through something similar is surprising, to say the least. But if so, and if what you're saying is true...

"...Ras par?" You really think it's possible? To be stronger than the mushrooms?]

...that sort of thing usually works both ways. For them to be able to try to control you, they must leave themselves a little vulnerable to you in turn. So if you can use that to fight back, to take their power and make it your own...

[Pondering. He supposes that makes sense...]

Of course, I don't know if it will really work or not, but... well, it seems you aren't the only one to face such an issue, so I thought if there were any way to overcome it, it might be worth a try.

["...Par. Paras par?" He'll try it, then. Would you help him, if he needs it and it's something you can help with?]

*don't mind the pause, he just has to think for a moment before taking a guess at what you're saying....*

Ah... you'd like help? Of course, if that's what you're asking.

[His expression pretty much lights up with hope. ...Then he shrinks down a little from shyness, but he's definitely grateful.]

*reaches out a hand to him*

Who knows, maybe if this works, it can help others, too.

["Par par." He nods, and places his front claw in your outstretched hand.]

*takes it gently, with a smile*

...just no telling anyone what I told you, all right?

["Ras." Your secret is safe with him.]

Good. Would you like to talk some more now, or shall we go get Ryner?

["Par." He wouldn't mind talking more now, if you'd like, but just knowing that there's hope... That's the best thing right now.]

If there's anything you'd like to tell me, at least... well, I can't guarantee I'll understand perfectly, but I'll do my best.

[It's a minute before he says anything more. Eventually, though, he does say something, a little hesitantly.

"...Par paras par." He had a friend, a long time ago, who lost himself to the mushrooms.]

*it's a bit beyond Sion's ability to understand just yet, but he'll take his best stab based on tone and body language...*

...something that happened?

["Ras. Ras paras." His friend. ...He tries to sign a little, somewhat awkwardly, to try to get his meaning across better.]

*an affirmative tone, but trying to clarify something rather than just affirming...*

...someone else?

[nodnod]

*oh good we're getting somewhere!*

So something happened to someone else; someone you knew, I'd presume. What happened, then?

[A sad gaze downward, and he wiggles his mushrooms a little, in hopes that that's understandable.]

*...yeah, he gets the message plenty well enough, if his expression is any indication*

...ah, I see.
