6 ❀ video/action for the Goldenrod Rocket base

[ortion]

[Good evening, network! Today you get Dist's livid face, apparently. He looks absolutely pissed, and also his nose is running slightly.]

Whose brilliant idea was it to give me a Magikarp egg as a holiday gift?!

[For a couple seconds he pans the camera to...



an unusually golden Magikarp flopping around on the floor.]

Karp karp karp karp karp karp karp karp--

[The Pokemon's cry is enough to make Dist cry out in frustration.]

AUGH! This is the exact opposite of a thoughtful gift! This is a downright godawful excuse for a gift and you should be ashamed, if not fearful for your well-being once I find out who did it!! And to think these gifts are supposed to be special...

[He takes a moment to turn the camera away and wipe his nose. The Magikarp continues its karping in the background.]

Jade, if this is your doing, I swear I'll...I'll... [He has to pause to think of a good comeback.] Take all of your gifts from me back by force!

[It's about now that he can't stand the Magikarp's constant cries anymore. His gaze drifts toward the floor where it is.]

Would you shut up?! Rrrgh, you had better be unique enough for someone to take you off my hands or you're going in the PC forever...

[Since this video was supposed to end before he got even more annoyed by the Magikarp, he finally ends the feed there.]

If you don't want to be his partner, give him to someone who will.

Didn't I just say I intend to do that? As soon as possible, preferably.

[She'd take it.

Those words are in her head before she can stop herself. Thankfully, she doesn't say them. With her luck, this guy would want someone to pay for the monster he doesn't want.]

You shouldn't make it feel worthless.

[ortion]

If it evolves and turns out like my first Gyarados, then it truly is worthless.

[Someone had a bad experience with their giant sea monster.]

Gyara...dos? [She has to look this up. Hold on.

That is a large dragonish water beast. Raven frowns.]

A dragon.

[video]

[ortion]

Correct. It is a highly aggressive creature, and is very hard to tame. I trained my Magikarp well, and yet it still turned out to be a barbaric beast.

[He does not look pleased at all. Clearly he can never be in the wrong!]

[video]

[sunpendant]

Dragons are powerful. [Scoff.] You weren't respectful enough.

[This is her most likely conclusion. It comes with a half-turn and one half-raised eyebrow.]

[video]

[ortion]

Not respectful enough?

[Wow he's offended.]

You have no idea how much effort I put into making sure I was as respectful as possible to that fish! Don't you dare tell me I wasn't respectful enough!

[video]

[sunpendant]

Don't cause a scene.

[His raving does little to her other than make her more amused-and-annoyed-combo.]

Some monsters just don't like people.
