2nd Transmutation | [video, action for Saffron] SAVE THE KITTIES

[armoredsoul]

Just how common is all this stuff?

[Yeah, that's a very panicked Alphonse on the screen, with two Espurrs clinging very tightly to his head. Painfully tight, in fact, judging from that wince. And it looks like there are more huddling around Al--seriously, someone needs to find homes for them before he adopts every single damn one of them.]

At least the poor things don't seem to be hurt from it, but this is crazy! I heard about that storm with the Sharpedo, but this doesn't even make sense!

[Al blinks...several times, before smiling. Those are some very big eyes, goodness.] I see what you mean. They're pretty cute, though!

[He sighs, his shoulders slumping.] I know, but I can't help but worry.

[armoredsoul]

I know, but I can't just kick them back out onto the streets!

[The struggle is real, Scar.]

Yeah, I've noticed that. I thought it was just because they were scared, but I guess they just...look that way.

I don't think you can actually drown, if anything you'd be crushed by--

[Um. Well, that's a thing. Al has never been introduced to the magic that is freestyle rap, but he does at least recognize there's a cadence going on there? It's very confusing.]

...well, how about we believe there will be clear skies tomorrow?

Hehe, you could say that! I've wound up with one of each type of cat-like Pokemon I've come across one way or another--my Meowth just decided I was a good napping spot and stuck around after I had to get up and leave. Brother's gotten a little annoyed with it, but I'm happy to take care of them.

This world seems to exist solely for the benefit of Pokemon, I really don't think you have to worry about them, Alphonse.

[envy_the_sinners]

Wild Pokémon do fine on their own. That is why they are wild.

{AWWW SHE LIKES YOU}

That's very cute. A team full of cats sounds cuddly, I can't think why your brother wouldn't like that.

Unless he's allergic.

[heartofmetal]

Are you sure they just don't look like that on default? And don't try, I know you'd want to keep every cat there is.

[Ed - no sympathy for scared little kittens.]

action | who forgot to tag this...

[usedwrench]

[great, just great! The one day, when her Poochyena is actually excited to get out of her room -- she's like an indoor cat, she just happens to be a dog -- cats are raining from the sky. Psychic cats even. So Winry's been busy trying to keep the dog away from the cats, she at least seems to be calm whenever Winry is holding her.

... She's just going to hold the dog very tight when they run into Al and the cats.]

... You're not trying to save them all, are you?

[codpieces]

No sorrow. [ heh- ok but for serious now. ]

I can roll with that. 'sides, these little fuckers hit hard when they tumbled out the clouds. It should rain, like . . . Pies instead, yo.

[ excuse him while he . . . imagines that miracle right there ]

[armoredsoul]

Well, I'm still not used to thinking like that! It's just weird, how if you think about it there should be a million little problems cropping up and yet nothing happens.

[One of the Espurr reaches up to pat Al's cheek, and he blinks in surprise before sighing and petting it with a somewhat embarrassed smile.] ...ah, I guess the 'weather' is making me crankier than I thought.

[armoredsoul]

[Yep, totally not meeting his eyes on the video there.] I know, but...

[armoredsoul]

[:3c]

No, he's not allergic. I think the problem is more that I sorta used to always try and find a way to take care of the stray cats we'd come across back home even though we were always traveling, and now I have the perfect excuse with the cats here--he's just annoyed on principle. And they're very cuddly! When they're all napping around me, I swear I start vibrating from all the purring.

[Video]

[armoredsoul]

...there was a movie about it? I--how? Why??

[video]

[armoredsoul]

Yeah, I've heard of that peculiarity. It's weird, but...well, I'm not complaining.

[Al glances over to the window, where more thuds can still be heard.] How long did that Sharpedo storm last?

Re: action

[armoredsoul]

[So mean! ;A;]

Why would you assume they do? And really, I promise I won't keep more than two! I know I can't take care of all of them...

[Even if he really, really wants to. Why can't he just magically have a giant house to keep all the kitties at, world?]

action | shhhh we have all the time for backtags

[armoredsoul]

[Winry happens to catch Al in the middle of herding the Espurr back to the hotel room, so he only startles a little when he sees her. The Espurr pair are still clinging to his head, and the rest of the Espurr huddle closer around Al's legs when they spot Winry's Poochyena.]

Wha--I, n-no, I know I can't keep them all! But I just...they started following me, and I figured it wouldn't hurt to shelter them until all this peters out, you know?

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Well, if it's a great idea, why not make a movie about ?

[He would.]

...Okay, I'm pretty sure the film crew didn't plan on it coming true when they make it.

[envy_the_sinners]

But?

[a_sin_for_him]

You grow accustomed to it. It's alright, Alphonse, you just need to keep in mind that the normal laws of physics and biology we know don't apply here.

There are plenty of berries and other wild Pokemon to look after any unclaimed sky cats.

[usedwrench]

[awwwwww~]

Al, that's so sweet! I think that sounds great! Mind I help you with keeping them company?

[The Poochyena escapes from Winry!] Argentum, sit! [The puppy startles, and sits down before Winry is even finished with the word.]

It's okay, you all, she won't do anything to you. [Though now when her hands are free, she's looking for the Poochyena's ball to put her back into it.]

[armoredsoul]

I'm trying. I keep thinking I've gotten the hang of this place, and then Lisa goes and starts trying to torch Eddie's tail. Not that he put up with that for long, but it's still weird to see them breathing fire and spouting water out of nowhere.

Hehe, sky cats. I wonder what they're supposed to be called. Have Pokemon showed up before that no one knew what they were?

[armoredsoul]

W-well, look at them! I can't see that and just leave them out in the cold! I know they can handle themselves more likely than not, I do! But I still worry they'll be hurt, or get lost, or something!

VIDEO

[armoredsoul]

Pies? That would...well, it'd hurt less, but can you even imagine the mess? The wild Pokemon probably wouldn't mind, though.
