011 | Goldenrod City | Video / Action;

[It's a legitimately beautiful day in the neighborhood when the video comes on — the skies are partly cloudy but there are streaks of sun in places, and there's no snow on the ground. Rather, a bunch of probably incredibly confused plants have evidently decided that spring has arrived egregiously early this year, and are already starting to bud; the grass around is turning greener with every passing day, and ordinarily Parker would probably approve of that because green is objectively the best color, but today, she's...

Well.

From the looks of things, she's sitting against a tree in black jeans, a T-shirt, and a flannel hoodie over; her hair is long and a veritable mess, because she hasn't bothered to tie it back and she certainly hasn't bothered to brush it lately. And she's not really looking at the camera, despite being the one who intentionally turned it on. There's an equally tired-looking Eevee (one that, strangely, seems to be wearing a little white uniform with red trim) snuggled against her chest, and flanking her on either side are Nate the Mightyena (still in his dapper fedora) and Sophie the Ninetales (still in her diamond necklace collar), snug against her sides as though they're standing guard.

The camera angle is haphazard and sideways — not quite a Myspace angle, but clearly chosen without a whole lot of care for how the picture ultimately comes out.

Probably because it's a good reflection of Parker's mood right now.]


It's sixty-five degrees outside. In January.

[When she speaks, her voice is dull and flat — almost robotic, in the way she's just sort of pushing the words out.]

In January.

[A pause.]

Is the world ending? Maybe the world's ending.

[There's another pause, and this time when she speaks it's under her breath, more to herself than to the camera.]

Yeah. Maybe that's it.

[For a brief time, she doesn't say anything more, and then just when it's starting to look like she's forgotten she's still recording, the camera jiggles as her hand moves, and almost as an afterthought she switches the feed off.]

[OK Robo-Parker, you're creeping him out here.]

Something happened?

[ it's obvious something or someone upset her. Rude just isn't sure if he should pry any further or if he should try and make her feel better.]

It won't last. ...Things should go back to normal. After awhile.

Sometimes they get better.

Depends on what you choose to think.

If this is about the weather, then it doesn't matter.

If it's about something else, then maybe it does.

[Once it's confirmed that Ishimaru's not in any bodily harm, Rude allows himself to relax a little. He's heard of this before over the network, it's not necessarily serious.

He hopes.

I've heard of that. People falling asleep for a long time, for no reason. Most of them wake up after awhile.

...Ishimaru. He's a tough kid.

[He won't just up and leave. Rude doesn't buy that. Ishimaru's got a mission to save his classmates, and come hell or high waters that kid will make that happen.]
