6th book; up a creek without a boat or paddle {video/action} (dated to the 10th)

{So, how bout those hideous weather conditions? Pretty bad time to be at the beach, don't you think?}

{Isn't it a pity that Nanao's house is literally just next to the beach... And the feed shows her staring despondently at the waves lapping at the top of the hastily-erected sandbag wall in front of her porch. A baby Absol is curled on her lap, whimpering unhappily.}


I suppose that even I know when it is more prudent to retreat than to keep fighting.

{Wheeling back inside, it seems that most of the movable furniture has been taken upstairs, but the upright piano sits defiantly in the middle of a bare room. Too big to be taken upstairs, and too unwieldy to really be moved, there is little chance of it surviving the flood. The light flickers overhead.}

I would really appreciate a hand in leaving, given that I'm stuck in a wheelchair, and my lone Water-type is too young-- {A massive crash of lightning rattles the windows, and the light finally gives up the ghost and dies, leaving the room dark.} ...well.

Help would be wonderful, the sooner the better.


{OOC: She'll be replying to video tags ICly an hour later, but action tags would be absolutely fabulous c:}

Of course.

[With that reassurance, he switches the 'Gear to audio-only. He doesn't want to have to focus on the video while dealing with the storm at the same time, and really, there's no need for it in the first place.

As promised, he will show up at Nanao's house not much later. Between the Lapras crying out over the sounds of the storm from outside and the very same sounds issuing from the 'Gear, it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out who's nearby.

-Ah. Made it. Still doing alright in there?

youngforhisage: (Er... yes?)

[He'll come on in, carefully wheeling her as close to the edge as he can without risking her toppling.]

...I am not certain we will be able to take your wheelchair with us. Will that be alright?

[Even as he speaks, the Lapras puts a fin on the porch, trying to secure herself to it as much as possible for ease of transfer.]

[The Lapras extends her long neck, providing something for Nanao to grab onto as Asuma hops on as well.]

It probably doesn't need saying, but it's fairly rough out, so hold on tight!

Let's go, Kana!

[Once she's sure Nanao is secure, Kana gives another cry and begins swimming along.]
youngforhisage: (Er... yes?)

[personal profile] youngforhisage 2012-05-11 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
[As an added precaution, Asuma puts an arm around her. He knows you, Nanao. No diving headfirst off the Lapras Express.]

...You don't have any extra seeds from that stock, do you...?
youngforhisage: (You'd be good with kids!)

--Ah. Well...

As long as you live, there will be a chance to learn, won't there?

[Awfully chipper words in the middle of a storm there, Asuma.]
youngforhisage: (I told you so.)

[personal profile] youngforhisage 2012-05-15 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Kana is very careful about these things. As long as we hold on, we should be alright.

[Kana gives an affirmative cry from the front, still steadily swimming her way over to the Pokémon Center.]
youngforhisage: (Er... yes?)

[personal profile] youngforhisage 2012-05-15 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
She didn't show up with any of your friends, or perhaps at the Foster Home?
youngforhisage: (That's not how it goes.)

...I see. Where else could it have gone, I wonder...?
youngforhisage: (...)

...I suppose so. Hopefully she is happy with them...

[He looks a little downtrodden at the thought.]

[Kana glances back, at Asuma, who nods as though in understanding.]

...You know, she is by no means a replacement but... I'm sure Kana wouldn't mind spending some time with you if you ever needed it.

La, Laa!
youngforhisage: (I told you so.)

[personal profile] youngforhisage 2012-05-18 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Laaa!

[Nanao may be getting some Lapras nuzzles once they get back to the Pokémon center. Speaking of, isn't that a light up ahead?]

Looks like we've nearly made it!
youngforhisage: (Never could say no to a cute girl...)

[personal profile] youngforhisage 2012-05-18 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. I think I'm soaked through at this point...

[Aaaaand they have arrived! Kana moves as close to the Center as possible, and Asuma is quick to get off.]

I'll be right back with a wheelchair. Do you mind staying with Kana a moment?
