Sixteenth Reel: Polling the Masses [Video]

[redcinemareel]

[The video comes on, and it's Grell, sitting in an office like space for a change with red walls and soft lighting. It shows her black desk, which is surprisingly organized despite the piles of paper stacked on it. Each pile was neat, which one side being stacked high, while the other much lower. A copy of the latest edition of the newspaper is also on her desk, opened to a certain article that has her attention.]

Good evening. Here in Everglade, voting will soon commence on an important law, which, strangely enough, is up for debate. The Indecent Exposure law. It's something that isn't enforced here, and there haven't been many instances of trouble regarding it, because it isn't a law. Yet.

[Grell gives pause to tap her chin in thought, looking to the side.]

I suppose by bringing it to light that they may increase... [OOPS]

[Waves a hand in a gentle, haphazard way.] Nevertheless, while the vote is limited to Everglade residents, it would be interesting to know your views on this issue. There is a Pro-Natural and Pro-Clothes movement slowly gaining foot, something of a sight for me to see. No one from my time period would ever show an ankle! [Thinking back on it makes her shake her head a bit in amusement.] Except one...

[Very much talking about Ronald.]

I'm very much Pro-Clothes, not because I run a lingerie store, but because I don't want to see anyone's nasty bits but my husband's. [Shrugs] Simple.

[She reaches over to turn off the feed, but pulls back suddenly.] Oh! And while I have your attention, what are we to do, exactly with these...Pokemon? They have extraordinary abilities, yet they're rather cute. Do people keep them as pets or battle companions, or both?

[Okay, now she's turning off the feed.]

Comments

Those are always good to have.

[Have you seen Cassian shirtless, Grell?]

That's a godo criteria, definitely. I suppose I don't have to worry about it.

What about the animals-like residents? We have talking dragons in the city if I am not mistaken. And the werewolves? They have to wear clothes too? I know pokemons can breed so they might have sexual organs of some sort, should I dress them up?

[redcinemareel]

I'm not sure what will be he criteria for them, but cute accessories for Pokemon don't seem so bad. I wouldn't bother with dressing them up. It seems a bit cruel.

[k2so]

I'm mostly curious about the werewolves.

And you are right, maybe light accesories are better. Stardust has a blue bow and he doesn't seem to mind.

[Kay moves the camera so Grell can see his joltik. True to Kay's word, Stardust has a cute bow around his neck. ]

[redcinemareel]

The werewolves probably have better things to concern themselves with than clothing, like staying alive.

[Grell gets a good look before aww-ing at the sight.]

What a cutie!

[k2so]

That's true.

Isn't, he? [Kay scratches the Joltik Head lightly with a finger and then the pokemon clings to him.] He's a lil troublemarker, don't get fooled by the cute looks.
