-it's on? Thank you...
[The screen is at first obscured by something that moves away with a raspy chirp, leaving a bespectacled man to glance away from the screen for a moment before turning his attention to it. He seems worried but composed, letting his hand fall from where he'd been rubbing a knuckle absently against his forehead.]
Good...afternoon. [pause, then a sigh.] And a strange one. I don't know who is or how many are listening, but I hope my situation isn't common among you.
[More of that chirping, and Ondorus looks to his side as a green blob of feathers flutters its way up to his shoulder and shuffles around there for a moment, cooing. He smiles wordlessly for a moment and then looks back at the Pokégear.]
She offers her greetings, too. Anyhow - is there anyone listening to whom Sol Terrano means anything? Or, at least, Norad? Or...[His smile falls a little, and he breathes in as he thinks how to word this]...any for whom being a human comes as a bit of a shock?
-or knows of the Forest of Beginnings. [It comes out more rushed than the rest of what he's said, as though the thought came to him suddenly. The Natu on Ondorus' shoulder taps her foot firmly against him, and he nods a little.] Nobody here seemed to respond to any inquiry.
[He glances down (fiddles with something-) and back up.] I hope I'm using this correctly. [A tired smile.] Apparently there's a town of some size that I should get started on reaching. Thank you for your time - and I hope to make acquaintances with some of you.
[Ondorus bows his head politely, then the Pokegear tilts back so that it is receiving a shot of the sky. Offscreen, his voice can be heard - how do I shut this off, now? - along with some chirping from the Natu, and after a few seconds the entry ends.]

[Olivia's eyes seem to widen even further. When Ondorus looks at her, she turns away slightly, shuffling from foot to foot and looking happily embarrassed.]
Do you think so?
[With much hesitation, she turns back around and flutters, shaking herself into a composed look before nodding.]
Heh. But I don't think I've heard of this "evolves" - "evolving"?
no subject
Hehe, evolving means becoming better! Except with pokémon, it's like charging their batteries...or...
[She's confusing herself...]
no subject
[He can't really imagine Olivia carrying him any distance, as she is...
magic maybe?]
no subject
no subject
That sounds exciting. How big were they to begin with?
no subject
[She puts her hands a couple feet apart...]
And now he's like this!
[...And then turns the camera to show that she's lying on the belly of her snorlax.]
no subject
[Ondorus tilts the Pokegear around as though trying to see from different angles, fascinated at the explanation. It has the opposite effect on Olivia, who chirps fretfully, stands up, and turns around on Ondorus' shoulder before sitting back down. Now facing the other way, she scootches towards her trainer's head and buries her beak and eyes in his hair.
She doesn't want to be fat!]
no subject
[She gets the wrong impression from the natu's reaction. Yawn-chan is so big and squishy! Even if it is hard to get him to do anything now.]
no subject
I don't think that's how it works, but just to be sure - do you know what Olivia would look like after evolving, miss?
no subject
[She fiddles a bit with a pokéball, then shows them her noctowl.]
no subject
[He's cut off partway through by Olivia darting forward and filling up the screen with her stare. Ooh.]
no subject
Right? Right? I bet Olivia-chan will grow into something really cool like this, too!
no subject
I think she likes the sound of that.
no subject
By the way, I'm Yui!
no subject
Ondorus puts his hand on his chest and leans forward in a brief bow to the camera.]
I am Ondorus. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
no subject
Yui beams at him, waving a little peace sign.]
Nice to meet you! That's kind of a cool name, Ondorus-san.
[She'll need a bit of time to think of a nickname...]
