1st blade [Video & Action for New Bark Town]

[Veronica's gaze was stern as she looked at the screen. There was an air of dignity around her, despite how young she looked, but that could have to do with the many scars on her face and neck, the most notable ones being the two lines that intersected across her face, making an "X". She stares down at her Pokegear with what looked to be a mixture of confusion and annoyance. This goes on for a few seconds until she finally opens her mouth to speak.]

Ah-

Mukrow!

[And that's all that's heard from her, because immediately after, the Pokegear is yanked away from her and the world becomes a blur. It's like that for a good minute or so before everything finally settles. The Pokegear is now, evidently, high up in a tree, the tiny town of New Bark sitting in the background. It's actually kind of scenic, until Veronica appeared, having climbed up quickly to retrieve her device.

She swats at the Murkrow that took it, leading to a brief scuffle before the bird Pokémon takes flight, letting her finally get the Pokegear back. She is notably less dignified than before as she finally starts talking.
]

...This is ridiculous, all of it. [Annoyance in her tone barely contained.] Why do I have to go on this journey? Why is this even happening?

[The Murkrow from before caws loudly in the background, getting a flinch out of Veronica. She glances back, letting out a sigh and finally killing the feed.]

I wish I could give you a good enough answer but... To be honest, it doesn't seem like anyone knows.

[...Oh dear. That's certainly one way to start a video.]

Um... I don't necessarily think there is a reason, other than for someone's personal entertainment...

[And whoever that person is, Juniper has no idea.]

That's a Murkrow. They like to steal stuff.

[Thanks, Parker, the girl probably noticed that.]

...Especially shiny stuff.

[...Veronica, please. Juniper simply gives a shrug - or rather, the best attempt at one considering she's holding the camera.]

I don't think anyone could have seen them coming, really. None of us have any idea as to why we're here, so it's something that happened suddenly. In any case, I...don't really think that you should blame yourself for this.
artificialrose: (dojicons) (That doesn't help it make any more)

I'm fairly certain. If they do, then I can't imagine they're anyone else who's been brought here.

I asked the same question when I arrived. Some people have been here for years.

Different like how? I mean, they both have wings. And beaks. And feathery stuff.

That's right. I've been here for about, ah, four months now...?

[At least it'll be four months come the 20th.]

When I first arrived, I was as confused as you are, and I still haven't gotten any type of explanation. Being here is just something you get used to after a while, considering there isn't any known way of escape...
nostabbing: (INTERJECT ⚡ actually that's really dumb)

[personal profile] nostabbing 2014-08-09 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. Because it's a Murkrow, not a crow.

[ :|a ]

But they're not really that different, besides all the attacks and everything.

It's not like anyone is forcing you to go on a journey. You could always decide to live in one of the cities and stay there.

It didn't set you on fire or anything, did it?

...Right. But it's not a crow, it's a Murkrow.
nostabbing: (NOT BAD ⚡ learned that on the internet)

I don't think so. But some of the other ones around here do!

You should use the Dex. In your Gear. You point it at them and it tells you things about them.

Nope! It's probably your starter, so you're pretty much stuck with it if it is.
