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. ]

[ Once Sakura gets her Pokemon under control, she returns to the 'Gear to answer responses. ]

Thank you! [ Sounding a bit breathless. ]

[Heheh.]

They can be quite a handful, can't they.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

[ A little giggle. ]

Uh-huh. Especially Toto. I don't think he realizes how big he is sometimes.

[ She glances behind her at the Arcanine rolling in the sand. ]

[milquetoasthero]

[...All these kids younger than him have such strong looking Pokémon.]

Dogs usually act like that when they're happy. You must be a really good trainer.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

You think so? [ The compliment makes her grin bright. ] I try my hardest.

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

[Wow, cute!]

And it shows. I'm sure your other Pokémon are just as happy, too.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I hope so! I wanna be a great Pokemon trainer!

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

I think you might already be one, actually.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

Really?! [ BIGGEST HAPPY FACE. ]

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

Yes! I hope I can be as good a one as you someday.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

Thank you! I bet you'll be an awesome trainer, too!

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

[Oh!!] N-No way, I couldn't become as great as someone like you...

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I betcha can! [ A pause. ] I bet you already are!

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

[GOSH SHE LOOKS SO DETERMINED.] I just started out a few weeks ago, so I don't think I can say that..!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I bet you're really good already!

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

Not compared to everyone I've met so far!

[video]

[notakaijuu]

If you try really hard, I'm sure you can be better than everyone!

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

You really think so?

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I know so! Anything's possible if you try hard enough.

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

Thank you-- [...] Um... I don't think I ever caught your name...

[video]

[notakaijuu]

I'm Sakura! What's your name?

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

Luca. It's nice to meet-- um, well, I guess it's not really meeting, but... Well, anyway, it's nice to know you, Sakura.

[video]

[notakaijuu]

[ She giggles. ] It's nice to know you, too, Luca! Maybe one day we actually can meet.

[video]

[milquetoasthero]

I'm looking forward to it! I hope I'm a stronger trainer by then, too.
