SECOND ORDER ♛ VIDEO

[decrees]

[The video opens up to a Dratini egg. Standing around it are a few Pokémon: a Torchic, a Vulpix, and a Staravia. The trio seem curious about the egg, as if they've never seen it before.]

How do you get an egg to hatch?

[The question comes from somewhere off-screen. The video swivels to look up at Logan, who is frowning at the egg. He doesn't seem to notice the camera is pointed at him.]

I've had this one for well over a month. It doesn't even show signs of hatching.

[And the one Reaver got hatched quite some time ago! Clearly this is an exercise in Logan's shitty luck. Then again, looking at those unevolved Pokémon it's quite possible that he just sucks at this whole "Pokémon training" thing. Or a horrible combination of that and shit luck. That's probably it.]

I have kept the egg with me at all times. What else does it require?

[He hasn't even dropped it! Come on, that has got to count for something!]

I also have a question in regards to evolution. Is it possible for a Pokémon to simply decide not to evolve? I have two that should have evolved by now but haven't for... some reason I can't figure out.

[Logan turns a bit, realizing that the camera is focused on him, and gestures to the Torchic. He retrieves the 'Gear from the cameraman, a sulking Snivy, and gestures to it as well.]

I would appreciate any advice on either subject. Thank you.

[And with that, he shuts the feed off.]

[UGH YOU ARE TERRIBLE]

Don't hold your breath.

[HE WILL NEVER CHANGE HIS MIND GODDAMN]

[istheindustry]

Ah, I'm afraid that depriving myself of oxygen has never been one of my particular interests; you don't have to concern yourself with that.

[He is just going to tease you forever, if you don't mind~]

[decrees]

[UGH YOU DON'T MIND IF HE JUST LINEFACES AT YOU FOREVER, RIGHT]

[BECAUSE THERE ARE NO WORDS. EVER.]

[istheindustry]

[You are no fun. None whatsoever.

But! You do what you like, Your Majesty~]

Have you any further need of me, then?

[decrees]

[Oh please, do you expect him to be fun? He is the least fun person in all of Albion.]

No, I don't.

[...]

Thank you for your advice, Reaver.

[...Not about the egg, obviously...]

[istheindustry]

[All right, so he can just take his leave and -

...oh, bloody hell, hold on, apparently you need to have a Moment with him before he can go.]

Of course; I'm always at your service. You know that.

[...and that actually wasn't completely loaded this time. Happy?]

[decrees]

[Oh come on, you're not the only one allowed to make this awkward!!]

...And I appreciate it.

[Logan doesn't smile - he's never been good at expressing pleasure or... anything other than anger, to be honest - but it's obvious that he's quite pleased with that.]

[istheindustry]

[He was pointing out something that was relevant, you're...

...you're...

...you're trying to have a Moment.]

Noted and appreciated, Your Majesty.

[AND WITH THAT HE WILL BE TAKING HIS LEAVE

BEFORE YOU CAN COMPOUND THE AWKWARD]
