sixth fault; video/action for Otherhouse

[comeatmibro]

[ Miyuki clicks the feed on herself, considerably more cheerful than the last time the network saw her. She's sitting on a couch in the Otherhouse, shoulder-to-shoulder with Sakura, each of them clutching mugs of hot cocoa topped with liberal whipped cream. ]

This hot cocoa is, like, twenty percent better than any other hot cocoa ever. Wanna know why?

[ Sakura giggles in the background. ] It's victory cocoa!

Yep! [ The camera is jogged slightly, then Miyuki holds up a gleaming Plain badge. ] Soloed it! Godzilla-bro went as easy as he could, but that chick still cried, like... a lot. [ She looks exasperated. ]

I still think you could've been a little nicer to her, Miyuki-chan.

Hey, I said I was sorry for kicking her butt! Anyway, we'll probably go to Azalea soon, but I don't know how hard it'll be to get through that forest in this weather and whatever. Any advice?

[ ooc; badge is mod-approved, Sakura used with permission!

Not bad. Looks less girly than mine, at least.

[Meaning the Rainbow Badge, which isn't gay at all ever.]

[the_whitequeen]

Miyuki, how wonderful to hear from you. It has been a while ...

...ara? You won a badge! Congratulations are in order!

[video]

[meandering]

[The whole video starts with a chuckle. A badge? And soloed? Maybe he hasn't tried but still. It reminds him of when they were younger.]

You always were ahead of me at Pokemon. Congratulations!

[comeatmibro]

Hey! You're Sakura-chan's friend, right? L... Le... La... ? ... [ Forgive her, she's no good with names. ] L-sis! [ And now you're stuck with that. ]

Thanks, L-sis! It was nothing, really, hehe.

[comeatmibro]

Well, I'll have to get the girly ones, too, eventually. Anyway, I think the Rainbow Badge is cute. [ Dare you to say something, Metal-bro. ]

[video]

[comeatmibro]

Thanks! When're you gonna get a badge, slacker?

[ Teasing, of course. ]

[video]

[meandering]

[There'll be a pause as he feigns thought.]

Hmm... I was thinking I would wait until May... what do you think, not long enough?

[video]

[comeatmibro]

May?! Jeeeeez, I'll be long gone from Goldenrod by then! I'll probably have like... five badges!

[video]

[meandering]

Only five? I think you might be slipping, Miyuki.

[video]

[comeatmibro]

[ Defensively: ] Eight! I'll have the whole Johto league beat by then!

[video]

[meandering]

[He'll laugh, but hold up his hands in surrender.] Aim high, I know you can do it.

[Really, he absolutely believes in you.]

[video]

[comeatmibro]

[ That brings the grin back to her face. ]

You bet I can!

[the_whitequeen]

[ Giggling. ] It is Lacus, but L-sis is fine.

Does this mean you both will be moving on to the next gym?

[video]

[ripped]

[He won't. Not like he can argue. He will, however, grace her ]

And I'll have to get some more badass ones, so we're even. You going after that bug guy, next?

[comeatmibro]

Pretty soon, yeah! I wanna hurry up and get to the harder gyms already. Goldenrod was too easy!

[video]

[comeatmibro]

Yep! Then I'm headed up north to take out the rest of these Johto losers.

[the_whitequeen]

I am glad to see you so excitable. That is very admirable!

But you and Sakura ... oh please, do be careful in this weather. I do worry.

[comeatmibro]

Hey, no worries, sis. She's got, like, an Arcanine and an Ursaring... and I'll have a Charizard soon! So we'll stay warm.

[the_whitequeen]

Hnmm ... but just in case, make sure to call someone if you are in any trouble.

I am sure your brother will be happy too.

[comeatmibro]

Yeah, yeah, we will!

D'you know my brother?

[the_whitequeen]

Yes. I met him through the network not long after he arrived. He is an interesting character ... and very kind.

[Action]

[pianokeys]

[He had only been in the next room over when he'd heard the happy girls celebrating. He also heard the word 'hot cocoa', which was a que to remind him that he really should eat.]

 

He wanders into the kitchen, singing the regular victory tune that goes off when battles are won.]

 

I hear congratulations are in order- and cocoa. [He chuckles and makes his way to the cupboards, to see what's in there. The Other Father's planning on making food, and for those that have stayed there for a while, then it's well-known knowledge that he's not very good at it.]

[comeatmibro]

[ A tiny smile! ] Yeah, he is. Kind of a weirdo, though.

[the_whitequeen]

[ She laughs, because she does agree he is a little strange. ]

That doesn't have to be a bad thing. I think it makes him unique.

[comeatmibro]

[ Miyuki laughs, too, because look, even the polite types can't deny her brother's a freak. ]

Yeah, I guess that's, like, a nice way of looking at it.
