[The video comes on to show a...closet. Or what once was a closet. ALL the clothing in it has been pulled down into a nest. And more noticeably there are not only six eggs in the nest, but the entire inside is coated in PAINT.

Two Smeagle are happily looking up at the camera, and Neku's voice can be heard from behind it]

...you realize this is a RENTED room, right? I have to pay for the damages?

[The mother dog just barks and holds out an egg for Neku]

And I can't keep 8 dogs.

[Whinewhine]

Okay, any that I can't rehome we can keep just... no more paint. In places I have to pay for. Just... stop crying already!

[As he talks, Bell, his Persian, walks on screen. Sniffs the eggs, and lays on them. Catherine the Smeargle sees this and starts barking wildly, to which the cat hisses]

No, no damn it not this again. Bell those aren't yours! Get up! Just... anyone want some eggs? Before they tear each other apart over them? They're all Smeargle I'm guessing- so if you want I can hatch them up and teach them a move with Sketch too. Just... they can't ALL stay here.

I just finished HATCHING a bunch of eggs...

((ooc: Egg claim here ))

[Royce just... chuckles.]

It looks like... like you're having problems...

[Video]

[scratchitti]

Ugh, a lot of my pokemon are just head strong. It's not that I WOULDN'T want more Smeargle- they help a lot with my art. But they are so MESSY and I don't have space or time to let them run around like they need to.

[Video]

[me_first]

I'm... somewhat of an artist myself. An architect, actually... but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate other sorts of art, not at all.

[Video]

[scratchitti]

I paint, personally, which is what they do. Hell, they're outright called the Painter Pokemon. They're...oddly inspiring.

[Video]

[me_first]

Really? Then... perhaps I can take one off of your hands. I've been needing some... inspiration.

[Video]

[scratchitti]

Really? Well, I can't deny a fellow artist would be a good home for one.

[Video]

[me_first]

Then I'd be happy to. How much do you want for it?

[There is more laughter coming from your Gear, Neku. Luke finds your Pokémon fighting amusing.]

That looks fun.

[video]

[scratchitti]

What, the paint everywhere or all the barking. Cuz seriously man, if that's fun for you you can have a few of your own.

[video]

[fony]

Neither. It looks annoying, truthfully. Is that a hotel room they've destroyed?

[video]

[scratchitti]

Yeah. But the paint comes off pretty easy at least.

[video]

[fony]

Oh, that's good at least. How much are you looking at for the eggs?

[video]

[scratchitti]

How much? Erm... I dunno. You got any interesting moves on any of your pokemon?

[video] 1/2

[fony]

Uhh...well, a couple of them have a bunch of moves I haven't tried out yet.

Gimme a minute.

[What had initially gotten Kaneki's interest in this were the eggs- since it apparently seems like accidental eggs are a pretty common thing with Pokemon- but now he can only sympathize with Neku in regards to the Pokemon butting heads.

He gives a long sigh, one hand resting against his head with his fingers slightly threaded through his hair. Neku might recognize the Zangoose sitting on the bed nearby, scowling but looking pleased with herself regardless.]

I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem...I had to put one of mine away to keep them from fighting.

[It took him long enough just to figure out how to work the pokeball to do it, but it seems like he managed. Judging by the messy state of the room, along with the small scratches on his forearms, he did so not a moment too soon.]

Though, mine aren't...fighting over anything...they just really don't like each other, I guess.

[video]

[scratchitti]

I remember you.

And yeah, they're like people in that way, I guess. Some just really can't work together.

[video]

[samsa]

[He nods, glancing over at Rikki out of the corner of his eye. She looks back for a moment before snorting and looking away, folding her arms across her chest.]

I guess I can understand that...

Are...yours going to be okay, though?

[There are actual living things involved here, after all.]

[video]

[scratchitti]

Yeah, they're just complaining.

[He goes over, hauling Bell up into his arms. Or well, her upper body at least, her back paws dragging. She's almost as long as he is tall after all, and inching on 80 lbs. She grumbles but doesn't fight him removing her from the eggs, to which Catherine returns, smugly.]

[video]

[samsa]

[Well, at least she isn't fighting back. Though with Bell out of the way, Kaneki can get a better look at Catherine- her and all of her paintdog glory.]

...What kind of Pokemon is that?

[video]

[scratchitti]

She's a Smeargle. They're like... dogs? But they use their tails to paint. They can copy moves too, which is pretty neat. I haven't found a move yet they can't learn.

[emptysword]

...It looks like laying eggs seems to be a common problem trainers have, huh?

[ it's just an observation he made after seeing a few of these posts, but he sounds a bit amused at Neku's predicament. Either ways, uh. ]

Maybe you should probably give one of them a time out first, though.

video;

[scratchitti]

[He comes back the Persian has been moved to the bed, where she is grooming the paint off herself]

I think things have calmed down, mostly.

video;

[emptysword]

That's great then, isn't it?

[ Because uh Neku looked quite exhausted to him, yeah... ]

[scratchitti]

Yeah, though it'll start back up again eventually. Guess that just comes with having roomates

[emptysword]

At the very least you can enjoy some peace and quiet right now.

...Not counting the music playing in the background constantly, as it is.

[ he sure hopes game characters don't have to suffer from this like he is right now. ]
