firstnothing[Video!]
[The video clicks on to focus not on Xemnas, but a rather sedate looking kadabra carefully picking burrs out of a blitzle's fur, the ever-present kadabra-spoon held in its teeth. Both have rather new looking and fairly loose black collars studded with small silvery ...studs, and a single bright silver charm a little too distant to make out clearly. Neither seem to mind said collars, possibly because they'd be able to get them off very easily if they wanted to. When Xemnas speaks, likely the one holding the camera, he sounds bemused.]
I have finally seen evolution in this world for myself, but not with one of the pokemon I have had the longest. Is it odd, that the abra I captured not so long ago, evolved so quickly into its next form? Or is this common for wild-caught pokemon? I have high hopes of seeing the second stage of Regret's own evolution soon.
[The blitzle notices the camera first and perks up visibly. Then begins making faces at it, no small fete for a horselike face. Aside from a slow flick of its rather fluffy tail, the kadabra doesn't bother to divert from its goal of burrs.]
Additionally the growlithe that had chosen to accompany me is still present. If anyone is desirous of having a free growlithe, alert me and I will bring it somewhere you can capture it. To the young man I purchased the gastly egg from: it is a remarkable creature, and one I suspect I will keep for some time. You must be very pleased with its parents.

I have heard rumors of pokemon far above and beyond even the might of the ones we can ordinarily catch. These 'legendaries' may be a venue worth pursuing, eventually.
[It's a casual addition, but given Xemnas planned on taking over the world if he was stuck here very long, it was a good one to be aware of. He might well need them. And if he's going to conquer the world, it's good to let his other self in on it sooner or later in case they have similar ideas.]
Riku seems to be of similar age as Sora, but unlike Sora did not recognize me. We have had a fairly cordial relationship since in spite of what must have been his friend's warnings. It may be that he has no memory of the past handful of years. It's a puzzle I've been picking at, though I have had no reason to antagonize him and he is sensible enough to not cause trouble where trouble does not need to be caused. He may be a lesser concern because of it.
[There is in the background another brief rustle, and a low word to someone or something off-mic. By the rapid sound of small hoofbeats, and following sounds, he might be packing up wherever he is with intention of leaving. There's much work to do and there's no reason he can't get started and finish his conversation.]
Some do have no shame, but others will if lucky berate them for you should they act up. What could an old man possibly do, even in this place?
[What indeed. Those who would inevitably overlook Xehanort were going to regret it sooner or later.]

Date: 2013-09-01 05:12 am (UTC)If it is an island, it is bigger than the ones I knew. Far more tolerable with so much to do.
To command the loyalty and respect of such a beast would be no mean feat. These Pokemon...
[He has an idea in passing, but he holds onto it without voicing it for a moment. There is still much more to learn before he will deliver any possible conclusions.]
If he did not recognize you, then he is of no later than the Seeker's time. Perhaps before, if he is more amicable and less withdrawn. The Seeker had a rather profound influence on him... [though his tone turns slightly sour. Lost avenues, effort chased down paths that were blocked off before they could even branch.] If he does not know you then there is even less possibility of him recognizing me. There is little reason for things to not continue as they are now, then.
[He does not comment on the sounds. Xemnas knows what he is doing. There is little need to call attention to such things.]
There is little concern for the time being. We will speak more when you arrive.
[surrender now or-- no. wrong script]
Date: 2013-09-01 09:25 pm (UTC)[After that, who knows.]
Indeed. I have sought to maintain at least politeness, as it seems he is the keeper of many strong creatures and frequently offers their offspring for sale. He is not yet an enemy and I see no reason to make one of him.
[What goes unsaid is exactly how useful Riku could be to them if he were more amicable to the presence of any Xehanort, be it Xehanort himself, or Xemnas, or even the Heartless that caused so many headaches not long ago. If the boy had no built up immunity to darkness.. well. Sora wouldn't be needed.]
I will endeavor to reach New Bark Town as swiftly as possible, once I have acquired an appropriate growlithe. The species by and large is fairly rambunctious, I should be able to find something less likely to bark and constantly run in circles with a few hours' work.
[whoops XD]
Date: 2013-09-02 10:05 am (UTC)[But let's not get into that, shall we?]
He is not yet who he will become, and that is all that is necessary. There is little need to antagonize him. Cultivating him seems to be a far better option...
[Even if that's not possible anymore, it's still nice to think along those lines.]
Perhaps even I can find equal footing with him. Only time will tell.
I trust in your judgment in that regard. I will be here waiting. There is much we must speak of when we have a more secure means.
[Having the right script is important. Plus a much smaller post.]
Date: 2013-09-02 09:07 pm (UTC)If his pokemon foundered, he would see they're well healed afterwards.]
Very well. I will contact you again when I am near the city.
