[It's late in the evening when the feed has flipped on for the first time in a long time... but there's no one in sight, except Sanaa the Swablu. Lit by the glow of a campfire, she chirps happily at the screen before fluffing her wings and fluttering out of sight. There's some mild dragging sounds between the bird and what sounds like a Minun, as the two then proceed to set up the Gear.

Just what are they filming, silly Pokemon?

There's a couple of young kids sitting out in the sand, building onto a rather elaborate looking castle, and the feed just continues. Well into five minutes of just recording the kids working, something drops very suddenly right smack dab into their sand building, and gives a prompt and sharp sounding RAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!]

WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH MOMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

[Both children run off, though only one was absolutely wailing while the other was teeheeing, the person standing in the middle of what used to be the sand castle starts chuckling. Turning where the light finally catches, it's Vanitas, and he is grinning from ear to ear, looking somewhat giddy even.]

Now that, Runt, is how you properly startle someone. [The Minun gives a sort of agreement noise, and Vanitas? Doesn't even seem to care that the PokeGear is on. Apparently he's been having a contest with his mischevious electric rodent on scaring residents, and guess who just pulled into the lead with this ridiculous number?

Yeah, he's moving to pick up the Gear and shut it off now though, cause he so doesn't want to be around when the kids come back with the nagging mother. It would involve dodging police and Vanitas is actually enjoying himself for a change.]

[Okay, she's so laughing at this.]

[He's re-situated himself out by the lighthouse now to avoid crazy mom figures by the time he responds. Not like it's done anything to damper his cheeky expression though.]

It was good, wasn't it.

[endlessmagic.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahahahahah!

[foolishwren]

Y'know, picking on little kids makes it look like you're compensating for something.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Don't deny how hilarious their faces looked.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

[GOOD, MORE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE LOLS HE GOT TO HAVE.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Oh, no, don't get me wrong. Their faces were hilarious.

I'm just saying.

Not exactly an impressive act of ferocity, there.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I don't need to be ferocious to scare children. [Shrugging, he's still working that big smile off his face in an effort to retain his sense of normalcy.]

So you were saying something about compensation?

[video]

[endlessmagic.livejournal.com]

Kyahahahahahahah! The look on their faces were quite priceless!

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Next time, try scaring a big muscly dude.

Then I'll be impressed.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

It was worth waiting twenty minutes for them to relax enough at being in a darker area of the beach.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Let me see you scare someone first.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

I'm not the one kicking over sandcastles. I got nothin' to prove.

But tell you what, next time I scare the shit outta somebody, I'll broadcast it.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

It's not something to prove, it's just part of the competition. [Shruuuuuugs, and that bit about kicking over sandcastles only prompts another unshoed foot to push another tower over.]

Good, I'll wait for it.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[A chuckle.]}

Oh, buddy, if you're in the kicking-over-sandcastles faze of scaring, you've DEFINITELY got something to prove.

That's like trying to beat a five-year-old in a crayon-drawing contest. Not much competition.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I didn't start it, but I'm not about to just give up because it's dumb. [Turning the feed to show his Minun, he snorts.] His idea.

[video]

[endlessmagic.livejournal.com]

.... My, my. What a cruel man. ... [ cacklecackle ] I suppose you did not do bad. After all, what is a prank of sorts if you cannot properly surprise them?

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I can't say I've been called cruel before. [A monster, on the other hand..]

This was only childs play though. I can do far better. [Though his heart just isn't in it as much as it used to be; he gets a kick out of how funny it looks, but he doesn't... thrive exactly the way he used to on the negative emotion of fear.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[ooc: ... I'm having mental images of Vanitas in this video.]}

... So you're having a scaring contest with an adorable little blue mouse?

... Yep. Still not convinced.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

[ooc: That is beautiful and I cannot stop laughing.]

[Actually for that matter, putting it in those terms? Prompts this look on his face.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[ooc: YOU'RE WELCOME.]}

Mmmhm. Yep.

_{[Smirking lazily, Heather tosses her head a bit and buffs her nails on her shirt.]}

Gonna have to step up the effort a little there, m'man.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Alright, fine. I'll do more than scare some kids. [Let's see, scaring Heather might be entertaining.] You're in Goldenrod still, huh?

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[... Oh boy. Scaring Heather would definitely be entertaining, but it'd also probably result in violence. ... Like, bad violence. Especially right now, when her nerves are shot like frayed threads.]}

Nope. I've been in Olivine for the last couple months. Now I'm on the road again.

[Video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Huh, I'm still there... guess we kept passing each other. [More like he's been hiding out indoors to avoid the sun because eff that brightness >((( bright lights have been hurting his eyes lately.]

Where are you heading?

That's harsh.
