007 [ video / action for mahogany ]
[ Snake is sitting outside under a tree. The weather's a bit chilly, and he's wearing a very ugly sweater with torkoal and hot chocolate on it, as well as a scarf around his neck. His head is leaning back against the tree, and his bandanna is blowing lightly in the wind.
But the sweater isn't the surprising part... It's what appears to be a baby rock snake curled up in his lap. The expression on Snake's face is a mixture of calm and discomfort... It probably didn't feel too good to have a bundle of rocks lying on your lap.
In his right hand, there's a Pokeball with a small label stuck onto it, though it's too hard to make out from a distance. Boss wanders out from behind the tree, now a formidable size, but his level was only about 10 or so. Snake had been slacking.
With a grunt, he reaches his hand into his pocket, pulling out the gear and flicking it on. His face is tired, but other than that, he looks well. ]
Boss get over here-- Oh, uh... [ He clears his throat. ] Looks like if you caught one of those flying deer, you didn't get to keep it... No flying types for me, I guess. [ A bit of a smirk and he points the video down at the snoozing Onix in his lap. ]
Instead I got this guy... Just an egg, but he hatched a few days ago. He's getting bigger every day, too... Soon he won't be able to sit on me like this without killing me, I think. [ Despite the way he talks about the rock-snake, the old man's tone is gentle. He's got a soft spot for solid snakes. ]
His name's S2. [ He lifts up the Pokeball in his hand. ] And this... An old friend. [ He nods into the video feed, a little look of sadness visible in those eyes. ] Thanks, Heather.
[ooc: for reference, S2 is currently about the length of a meter stick when he's stretched out.]

Hnn. Wonder how long people can live in this place anyway. My aging doesn't even really seem to be a factor here... [ Unless he's been transformed into an actual old man. ]

I confess I haven't thought about it too hard.

Now that I'm not collecting those badges, though, I guess I have more free time.

He's been getting a lot of writing done.

The last time I retired, I was holed up in Alaska, drinking myself into a stupor and raising sled-dogs.
I've been retired since, but people keep pulling me back. [ Hmm. ] Not sure what I'd do with myself in retirement. I just... lie around and collect dust.

... I mean, not that you haven't probably had your fill of excitement by this point, but still.

Not everyone gets to fight giant walking tanks that roar like dinosaurs.

I don't want to think about it. Hopefully none of these creatures can shoot nukes from their asses.
[Video]
... Y'know, there's probably one that can.
[You know, statistically and stuff. The probability's pretty high.]
[Video]
[ Gives her a weird look. ]
[Video]
I mean, come on.
There's Pokemon that can literally explode and still be alive.
One launching nukes out of its butt doesn't seem like much of a stretch.

Just makes the possibility even greater. [ grmble grmble... ] Anyway, I better get going before this guy cuts off my circulation. [ He pats the Onix on the head. ]
