► tenth sketch [Video]

[memorychains]

[Well, Johto, your intense and abnormally bipolar weather has finally taken its toll. This camera feed is rather wobbly and shaky. But that's because its holder is fond of flying around the place and twirling in midair. Naminé's pokemon are outside and milling about, enjoying the sunshine for once. And the girl?

She's there, looking uncomfortable as she's on a pink bike (she's wearing leggings together with her usual white dress, okay) one foot on the ground and obviously looking like she has never done something like this before.

The camera flies in as its holder chirps her encouragement to her trainer, and Naminé grips the handle bars tightly before starting to push forward.

She manages to go forward a little, rather wobbly and slowly, but it doesn't take long. The gear suddenly gets dropped with a cry of "tiiic!" and the feed shows a view from the side, with a Vaporeon dashing worriedly off cam just as a crash of metal is heard. There's a faint "ow..." and some chattering from her pokemon.]

I'm okay...

is action okay?

[Because Roxas is going to be running over to check on her. Stupid bikes]

yup, action we go then!

[You think his own accident would make her rethink this bike thing, but she's too curious for her own good. Her arm's got a small cut and scrape on it but apart from that she looks fine, on the ground and trying to calm a worried Salty hovering over her. The stupid thing is on its side, and has to push it out of the way a little since her foot is still caught under it.]

I'm okay, Salty, really.

[And here comes Roxas. Hoo boy.]

[Blink. Well, that was unexpected.] That was quite a fall.

[lonestarweeaboo.livejournal.com]

Whoa, whoa! You should get some shade!

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[And Sparky will worry at you Namine, while Roxas lifts up the bike to free her foot]

Are you alright?

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

I'm okay.

[She looks at her arm, then to the deathmachine, plucking her wailing egg pokemon from the air into her arms to calm her down]

I was just trying it out...

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

[Give it a few more minutes before she responds to this.]

It's... harder than it looks.

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

[Minutes later.]

I probably will in a while.

... the weather's so different now.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[A nod. He did that to]

Harder than it looks, right? It's easier when there's other people around.

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

Did you figure out how to ride it?

[Salty won't stop wailing and she glances down to where she's flailing her little arms at. Oh, she's got a cut. She thought it might come to this.]

[Video]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

Seems like it. What exactly were you doing? [Sorry, no bikes in his world. They spend a lot of time walking around.]

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

Trying to ride a bike. I'd been curious about it for a while now...

[Video]

[lonestarweeaboo.livejournal.com]

... Some water wouldn't hurt ya either. You aren't used to hot weather?

[shenanigaans.livejournal.com]

[He is so teaching both you AND Roxas how to ride bikes when he meets you guys again 8|] --Namine! [D:]

[video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

[I WAS JUST CURIOUS it was a shiny bike thing ): MINUTES LATER]

I-I'm okay, Lea.

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

Mm, no. It was never this hot where I came from.

[Even Twilight Town's summer weather wasn't like this.]

[video]

[shenanigaans.livejournal.com]

If you say so. [SIIIGH] Jeez. Well, I guess I'll just have to teach you and Roxas how to ride those.

[video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

I know it was a little silly of me to think I could get it right at the first try, but I wanted to see what it was like, at least.

Thanks, Lea.

A bike? [He looks at the object she had been riding curiously.] I've never seen one of those before.

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

Me either. But people here have been riding them, and you get around lot faster with them.

[shenanigaans.livejournal.com]

Hey don't sweat it! See if you can get training wheels on it first, that'll take care of balancing for you until you get used to the pedaling and stuff at the same time.

It's no problem at all. Hey, where are you guys at? If I can catch up, that'll be the first thing I do!

[Video]

[souljudgment.livejournal.com]

They look pretty difficult to use though. [Not that he knows, but she had a hard time, so he's judging it by that.]

[Video]

[lonestarweeaboo.livejournal.com]

Poor thing. It must be so hard on ya...

[video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

[Watch her nod diligently.]

Training wheels... alright, I'll look for some later.

We're still at Ecruteak. Roxas is training to beat the gym leader here.

[Video]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

It's hard to keep your balance.

[And she'll set it upright, frowning down at it. But it will give him a better view of what it looks like, at least.]
