20th Spell [Video/Action for Cianwood]

[friendyousohard]

Tower- Tower no!

[An enormous roar accompanies the sudden rush of sand by the lens of the Pokegear as an enormous Tyranitar begins stomping around, roaring at something that can't be seen through the sandstorm. Twilight backs up a few steps, holding her arm in front of her face as the sand threatens to blind her.]

Gah, it's everywhere... Tower, stop! It's just a-

[With another roar, the hulking monstrosity sends the object of its rage hurling over its shoulder past Twilight.]

... Tentacool.

[The hapless jellyfish is forgotten already, though, as Tower seems to have taken the opportunity to just start stomping around wildly, roaring challenges at what appears to be the world at large.]

Oh by Celestia's mane... When I get the sand out of my eyes you are going in your ball for a week!

That's all very well and good if I can get her to listen to me! She's not exactly helpful while running wild!

[Though she did get Tower mostly for battling purposes, so she can't in good conscience rebut his argument.]

... Your socks are going to be full of enough static to put your hair on end from your feet, by the way.

[Blake tries to grab the thing and pull it off his head. It climbs freakishly quickly around his head and down right to the center of his back, where it clings to his shirt.]

[As Carter tries to get his arms to bend in the right way to reach it] Maybe he'd listen to something familiar. Try talking in a bad voiceover over somebody Japanese.

Thanks for the warning. How about some advice on how to get this thing to calm the hell down, if you're so smart? [Actually, yeah, that's good to know. Nobody wants the shit shocked out of them before they can get their shoes on.]

It's a rodent. Calming down isn't something they usually tend to do. But you could try exhausting it. Find a target and have it practice electrical attacks until it just can't anymore and maybe it'll be too tired to do anything else. No Pokemon I've ever met would turn down a suggestion like that anyway.

[She plucks a ball from her belt and holds it up to her eyes while she talks.]

Ah, there you are. Megasoma, get her!

[She hurls the ball and a giant stag beetle pops out. He flexes once, twice, Tower roars at him, and he turns and smirks at her.]

Oh for... Would you stop strutting around and hit her?

[lieutenantantichrist]

That's actually not a half-bad idea. Huh, and here I thought all teenage girls knew about was makeup and boy bands.

[Once he's distracted and stops trying to grab it, the Emolga climbs up and perches on his shoulder. It perks up at the idea. Shocking stuff is fun!]

Bug trouble?

[video]

[friendyousohard]

I don't know anything about either of those two topics... then again, at twenty-one I'm technically not a teenager either. So there you go.

[Of course, she didn't know anything about either of those when she was a teenager either, but that's beside the point.]

No worse than usual. Have you ever seen a bug with an ego the size of a small building?

[The Heracross strikes one more pose, then starts flapping his wings as Tower begins to charge him.]

Well, now you have. And what makes matters almost worse is the fact that he-

[She's interrupted by the sound of a tremendous crack as Megasoma's fist slams into Tower's gut. With a strangled cry, the rampage abruptly stops as the rampager falls over on her side, moaning and holding her belly.]

... Deserves it.

[lieutenantantichrist]

[Blake eyes her skeptically.] I wouldn't sell you a beer.

Can't say I have. Usually bugs mind their own business. Do bug stuff.

Hah! [Blake watches with approval. It's like pro wrestling, but with bugs.] Beetle Andre the Giant's not bad at that.
