10th Card | Video/Action for Olivine

[notakaijuu]

Backdated to April 1st!

[ The Feed comes on to Sakura sitting in the sand. Behind her, an Arcanine is running with a terrified-looking Minccino on its back. A frantic Ledian is chasing them from the air. ]

Is it on now, Kero-chan? It is? Okay, uh, hi everyone! [ She beams brightly. ] Um, today's my birthday. I'm turning twelve!

[ She looks past the 'Gear, presumably towards the ocean. ]

I might not be able to spend it with my family, but at least I'll get to spend it with all my friends here. Plus, twelve is older than eleven! I'll be able to do more stuff now. Soon, my brother won't even be able to call me a kid!

[ Her grin is triumphant for only a moment before it's replaced by a startled look when her Arcanine roars. She cranes her neck to look behind her. ]

A-ah! Toto, stop it! You're scaring Yuki!

[ She jumps up and takes off towards them, stumbling and falling once or twice. The 'Gear is dropped to the sand as her Ursaring runs after to help. ]

[Since it's April 1st, Crow's quite determined not to believe anything anyone says... but baaawwww, a little girl celebrating her birthday? CAN'T BE A JOKE.]

Twelve already, huh? Happy birthday!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

[ Nope, no jokes here! Sakura was just born on a really unfortunate day. ]

Uh-huh! I'm practically a grown up! [ A triumphant grin. ] Thank you!

[video]

[darkenedgales]

[Or very fortunate, depending on how you see it.

Crow chuckles a bit at her calling herself a grown-up, but hey, that's what he thought when he was her age, too.]

Yeah, sounds like you're quite a big lady now!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I'm getting there! Soon I'll be big like my brother. [ She holds her hand waaaaaaaaay above her head to indicate a height. ]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

Maybe, but you'll probably still be a kid to him! [Because that's how being an older sibling works.]

[video]

[notakaijuu]

[ Pout pout pout. ] Not when I'm big enough to beat him up!

[video]

[darkenedgales]

[... Awww, she's so cute.]

C'mon now, he only does that 'cause he cares 'bout ya!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

He's a big meanie. [ Poooooooooooooout. ] He calls me a monster, and says I stomp everywhere, and he makes fun of me.

[video]

[darkenedgales]

[He lets out a small giggle. Hey, at least her big brother doesn't spend all her money without asking...]

Ain't that what big brothers do...?

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I guess. [ Still looking generally pouty. ] Do you have any brothers or sisters?

[video]

[darkenedgales]

Sorta. [He beams.] We're not related, but I have friends that are like brothers to me!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I have friends like that, too! [ Griiin. ]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

No wonder! [He winks.] You seem like a nice kid!

[... Yeah he said "kid".]

[video]

[notakaijuu]

Thank you! You're really nice, too!

[ She doesn't even care as long as it's not 'monster'. ]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

[HOW COULD HE CALL SUCH AN ADORABLE KID THAT...

He snickers a bit, since it's not everyday that he gets called 'nice'.]

Thanks! The name's Crow, by the way. You're...?

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I'm Sakura! It's nice to meet you, Crow!

[video]

[darkenedgales]

Sakura, eh? 'S one hell of a pretty name. Nice to meetcha, too!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

You think so? Thanks! [ She gives an almost embarrassed giggle. ]
