[ Video ; Action ]

[imthe_shit]

[The video feed flicks on, showing itself to be in Ilex Forest. Looks like Snake must be taking his sweet time to get to Goldenrod this time-- or his back really does hurt that much. Whatever the case may be, the video turns to look at Snake, but... There's nothing there.]

Hn. I've been doing some research of my own... The townspeople talk about a Guardian who lives in this forest... ...Could that Guardian be a Pokemon?

[Slowly Snake sits up... at first it looks like a bunch of grass but then the grass effect disappears, revealing Snake. Octo-camo had its uses. He reaches for the PokeGear, presumably held by Sunny, and turns it off.]

Do I look like I lie a lot? [She puts on her most innocent smile]

[imthe-shit.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't know. I've been lied to all my life.

By who? [GOD SNAKE YOU'RE SUCH A DOWNER. She looks down, biting her lip] The truth is...I lie all the time. It's hard not to when you're afraid of hurting someone.

[OOPS SHE STARTED TALKING ABOUT HERSELF. MUST BE THE OLD MAN-NESS.]

... Hn.

In the end, the lie is more painful than the truth. Yeah, it's painful to see someone suffer from learning the truth, but to keep it from them is far worse.

[She nods. She knows that now but it's still hard to accept.] You sound like a girl I know. he said the same thing.

[Her smile returns full force though] I have lots of secrets, but you won't be hearing about those! A girl's gotta have plenty of secrets. It makes for a good mystery, don't you think?

.......... [thinks to himself "I sound like a girl?"]



A... mystery. I guess, if you say so.

[notjustsunshine.livejournal.com]

[fff that is SHE said the same thing. But yes you do Snake]

Yep! You're pretty mysterious yourself, Snake. Pretty neat!

YOU'RE PRETTY GOOD

... Hnn. [Just nods slowly.]

yayyyy

[notjustsunshine.livejournal.com]

I'm so mysterious I'll go now. And I'm not going to tell you why. [She nods. Yup.] Bye Snake! [And off she goes. MYSTERIOUS~]
