015 // Video
[The video suddenly flickers onto a familiar pair of faces, both of them leaning close to another 'Gear. Considering the name registered to the video, it must be Joker's that's being used for filming and Jimmy's that the pair are using. The rest of the room is dark, just leaving the light from the Pokegear.]
[Joker is looking a bit jumpy, and the expression on his face is one of a man from 1880s who is not entirely sure if what he's looking at will steal his soul or not.]
I'm tellin' ya, they can't just bleedin' well teleport, and they wouldn't give us this camera thing if it was useless, would they? Go on, switch elsewhere then.
Alright, lesse…
[Jimmy lifts a hand to switch to a different camera, lingering only for a second or two on each one, giving them enough time to glance around to be sure nothing is really there. The gym floor, lockers, bathrooms...everything seems pretty empty, yet they could have sworn that they saw something a minute ago.]
I...I don’t see anything else, do you?
Somethin’ was off but bugger all if I could tell what it was.
[Joker makes a face before giving a helpless shrug.]
Hell with it, let’s put it down then, everythin’ seems in order this time.
[Jimmy looks back down at the screen, at the camera that is currently looking out over the entirety of the gym. He nods and moves to switch the camera off…
When suddenly, the view of the screen is filled with the limp body of what appears to be a Frillish, shining a strange hue of gold in the darkness. It’s lying up against the wall, staring back at them with dead, hollow eyes. And Jimmy’s reaction, naturally, is to nearly drop the Gear entirely as he chokes back a strangled scream.]
W-what is that!?
[Joker’s reaction is a lot less verbal and lot more punching Jimmy’s Pokegear right in the keyboard, making it clatter back onto the desk they’re seated at. There’s a muffled swear under his voice as he quickly grabs it back.]
Aw ‘ell, switched it back ta the cameras- wait, where’d the bloody thing go?!
[Because yep, that sure is an empty video game office and no creepy Golden Florence Frillish about! Joker’s expression has changed from ‘unsure if going to steal my soul’ to ‘DEFINITELY going to steal my soul, well dammit’.]
I- I don’t know!
[This game is suddenly a lot less fun as opposed to outright terrifying because where the heck did it go. Not to mention the fact that the lights near the doors are still flickering every so often, and Jimmy’s almost certain that at any minute something is going to come charging through.]
We only got an hour left and like...15% power or something. Do you think we can make it not watching the cameras?
I think we should-
[And that’s when something seems to enter the room causing Jimmy to fall out of his chair with a yelp and Joker to swear- louder this time- and throw the ‘gear somewhere. Whoever is filming this ridiculous scene seems to be having a hard time not laughing as they change it to show three Pokemon standing in the doorway- a Vulpix, a Houndoom, and a Bunnelby.]

Guys? You okay?
[Video]
That's a devil's game, it is.
[Video]
[She was one of those people that would throw a game console across the room in surprise.
That was probably one of the reasons why she didn't play many video games.]
[Video]
[Video]
[She didn't think it was fun when monsters of unspeakable horror were trying to kill her. What the heck.]
I don't know. It's weird... [And honestly really freaky.] It just appears sometimes.
[Video]
[People from the modern age are weird as fuck]
[says the man who was like "sure i can do my first pokemon flight with a charizard while it's raining"]
Seems a bit random then...
[Video]
[She had a basic understanding of video games, since she never really played them much before. At least she was taking it better than most.]
People like horror games, for some reason.
Video
He's so scared right now that he might actually laugh when he finds out everyone is safe. Maybe.]
Video
It's all well, Snake, no worries! Just forgot we had three pokemon that look a bit too much like our spooks here.
Video
Video
Video
We have gotten to the sixth night, says Quincey.
Video
Now ain't that somethin'. Not sure if we'll manage ta the second at this rate... There a trick ta it?
Video
What are you talking about!? It wasn't easy at all, says Ruskin.
Video
Video
Well, Zola's headstrong and John thinks he's always right so it isn't that surprising, says Ruskin.
I don't think I'm always right, I know I am! says John.
Video
Wouldn't workin' together be best for that if yer both on the same track?
Video
He never wants to listen to anyone else, says Zola.
I do! says John.
No you don't, says Ruskin.
If I don't listen to you, then why am I responding, say John.
John, be nice. You're Snake's first pokèmon, so you're very special to him, but that doesn't mean you can give him stress by always fighting with us, says Gaskell.
...
Okay, I'm sorry, says John. [And the Ekans gives Snake a little headbutt.]
Video
Mm, it's important ta be good ta Snake. He's one a the most important folks in the Circus, after all.
Video
Video
Oh yeah, without a doubt! Where would we be without 'im, eh?
Video
Excuse him as he just stares at his feet. At the moment he very much wished he could just slither off into a hole in a wall and hide for a bit like his snake friends from back home.]
Video
Video
Video
'Course. Probably would have lost my mind if ya weren't around like ya were.

You found the shiny Frillish, didn't you?
[Oh, he's been there, all right, and his reaction was more or less the same.]
no subject
[Joker sounds vaguely horrified. As he should be.]
no subject
[He reaches for his forehead, massaging his brow.]
If you actually left it on the screen, you'd wind up with some creepy hallucinations and the game would close. Oh, and you get a slightly different scream.
no subject
[After a moment of processing that, he turns to yell off-screen.]
Oi Jimmy! We accidentally won the game!
no subject
[More like a... save? A lucky break? Something like that.]
no subject
Y'say that like I plan on pickin' up the cursed thing again. My poor heart!
no subject
[C'mon, Joker. Where's your sense of adventure.]
no subject
[He used up all his adventure making a circus, sorry.]
no subject
[Oh, who's he kidding? It's probably got some kinda sick, sad ending.]
no subject

[...]
Which I haven't because of that stupid Frillish. Night 4's the worst.
[Especially when he has to deal with the fox. The darn fox...]

I dunno. Maybe you're making the right move by calling it quits. It's just so addicting.
no subject
Maybe we'll pick it up when our hearts have stopped beatin' so hard. This was Jims' idea, and he might still be interested and all.
no subject
I'm just glad it's not in real time. Can you imagine sitting there for six hours per night?

[He normally wouldn't ask it if he was back in London, but this is Pokemon. He's seen what the hell is up with Ghost types, SO...]
no subject
To steal the life of its target, it slips into the prey’s shadow and silently waits for an opportunity.
[...]
Haunter is a dangerous Pokémon. If one beckons you while floating in darkness, you must never approach it. This Pokémon will try to lick you with its tongue and steal your life away. Its tongue is made of gas. If licked, its victim starts shaking constantly until death eventually comes.

[And yet his voice is totally unapologetic. That reaction alone was totally worth it.]
