SOMEBODY SEND HEEEEEELP!

[ Konoka is seen in a video, head tilted awkwardly as she is in a life or death tug of war...

...with a Larvitar that is currently chewing on the end of her hair. There's also an Eevee nearby practically yapping at it and pouncing on it. There is no mischief or malice in Larvitar's actions, it has simply and truly run out of fucks to give. ]


[Video, some time later]

Oh, ah sorry about that. That was mega embarrassing. See, I got this little one out of the egg that hatched.

[ Konoka is now sporting a slightly modified hairdo with the end of her brunette hair captured in a thick pink bow. She is holding her Eevee, who looked pretty content in her arms. ]

If I remember correctly, they're pokemon, right? I remember playing games like that back at home some time go. They said we could catch more and I found a couple around my path to work and around my job. But one of them is... well, he's kinda dangerous.

[ The Larvitar terrorizing her earlier was still out of its pokeball, now just chewing on some sort of bone. It still doesn't have any fucks to give. ]

Hey, so, someone familiar with... what'd the paper call 'em? Pokemon? I could use some advice. Those eggs that everyone got? Yeah, mine hatched... into this.

[He turns the camera around to show a Tepig sniffing at an old pizza box on a table across from his desk.]

Cute little thing, but he's already set me on fire three times, and I've got no idea what they eat so I've just been sharing pizza with him. He seems to like it.

Hell, I'm not even sure he's a he. I'd just... appreciate any advice y'all have before he torches my shop. I kinda like it not on fire.

[There is a commanding voice, demanding of attention and of one used to being obeyed at once - or else. However, for now Grievous is playing along nicely, trying to gather more information while he bides his time here. So this means, to start with, he needs to get a job to earn red bills for better accommodations.]

City of Genessia, I am General Grievous, newly arrived to your world.

I hear there is work in beast hunting and indeed found a small creature, hatched from an egg in my room...

[He didn't hurt it, though. It might be useful to him.]

I am a highly respected warrior. A leader of great armies. Tell me what work available here would be appropriate to my skills.

I have to say, I was not expecting that egg to hatch, but I do so love pleasant surprises!

[Someone seems to have taken quite a liking to this little curveball that this world has thrown at her. She pans the video over to show off her darling Pokémon collection; currently a Chingling, Fomantis...and a Bulbasaur.]

Aren't they precious? Especially Hibiki. The bell one. Mei, the mantis one, also came from my egg.

[A pause.]

I found the other one earlier today. Now, from what I understand, you're supposed to battle with these creatures, yes? Caring for them seems to be easy enough.

[She's going to need a bigger place if this keeps up, honestly. Between the rabbit Koishi gave her, a rabbit she picked up herself, and now three Pokémon, her apartment is beginning to get crowded.]

I'd like to see all of your Pokémon as well.
