1st kick: video/action

[Crys sat in the living room of House 11, listening to the rain tap against the windows. She opened her journal, curious but hesitant. After a pause, she speaks.]

So um... I have to ask. Is stuff like what happened with all the world-visiting normal for this place? It seems pretty unbelievable. I didn't just dream the whole thing, did I...

[She stays quiet for a moment or two and then opens her mouth to talk again.] If that's normal, then I hate to see what unusual is.

[Crys goes to close the journal, but opens it back up and smiles a little.] By the way, my name's Crys. Sorry for the late introduction.

[And then she closes her journal, but opens is back up, locking a message to Hiccup.] Um... are you doing okay after the whole thing? I think something like... that must have been kinda hard, and I hope you're not too hurt or anything. If you want to talk, I'd be willing to come over, too.

[She looks up from her journal, giving him a smile.]

Hi, Green. What's up?

[Green just nodded, as if that were answer enough. He leaned against the arm of the couch instead of sitting down.]

You?

Hm... [She hums quietly, then looks back out the window.] Trying to get used to things. This place, especially after that... whatever it was. [She seriously thought Hiccup was a trainer, and it was just so... natural.]

I understand.

[He's a little concerned about you, Crys. You're one of the few in the group that takes things fairly seriously. You even seem to worry more than Green does.]

Adaptability is the key. Letting things take you by surprise isn't going to help.

E-eheheh, you've got a point there. Guess it's bad on my part, huh? The whole thing kinda freaked me out.

[Nervous chuckle.]

Don't forget that there's more to come. Good and bad.

[A pat on your shoulder! It's kind of rough, since Green usually only does it for his guy friends.]

You're strong enough to face it.

[As a Pokédex holder.]

[Dude Green, she's not one of the guys. Ow. But she smiles nonetheless and nods.]

Right. Gotta keep my chin up!

Thanks, Green.

If Grandfather put his faith in you, then you have my trust, as well.

[This is very important!]

[Okay, now that gets you a big smile, and a light blush.]

Hee hee. Thank you, Green! That means a lot. And I can't let either of you down.

Hmm.

[He nods. Good! He managed to encourage someone that wasn't Red, this is a milestone for him already.]

You're free to train with me, sometime. To take your mind off of things.

Really? That'd be great! Mega and the others have really been wanting to train lately. Would now be okay?

Yes, it would.

[Be prepared for one hell of a training session, you are learning from the master of it!]

Mega is a grass-type, right?

Yes! Arckee is a fire type, and Xatee is a flying and psychic type.

[psh, bring it.]

Mega is pure grass type?

What movesets do you have?

Yes, she is.

Mega's moves are [Going on a bit of headcanon.] Frenzy Plant, Sleep Powder, Razor Leaf, and Magical Leaf. Arckee's are Flamethrower, Agility, Extreme Speed, and Fire Blast. Xatee's are Drill Peck, Fly, Psychic, and Future Sight.

Fairly balanced attacks. Type coverage works fairly well.

We'll have to see if we can get Arcanine to learn a more physical fire type move.

I think so too, thank you.

Hm... possibly Flame Wheel?

That's a good start. Arcanine is limited by its small potential movepool, but I think I could teach the old dog a new trick or two.

[Because poison tail strike Green you're stupid hax.]

[Ooooooh, bad pun, Green. but she still giggles a little.]

Hey, Arckee's not that old.

We'll make it work.

Great! So, wanna head over to the Battle Dome?

I haven't used it yet. I wonder what use a simulation would be.

[He's not against the idea, of course, but you surely know what sort of enthusiast for training that Green is.]

I've been there, and it actually seems pretty useful.

I will be the judge of that.

Ah, okay. Do you want to go see it now?
