9th Animal Η Video/Action for Saffron Σ
[Well, someone is out of their element.
When Reid turns on his communicator, he's sitting outside the little place on the outskirts of Saffron that he rented with Mio. He's sitting on the grass with a bag (full of things he bought for his Pokemon) tossed to the side, and he's besides a clutch of three multicolored eggs--nestled among those eggs is a Ponyta without any kind of flame, struggling to stand up.]
Uh, hi? I'm, uh--I mean, for those of you who don't know me, I'm Spencer. Dr. Spencer Reid.
[Reid stands up and hesitantly approaches the Ponyta. Gingerly, as if it's a live bomb, he rests his hands on its chest and stomach, trying to help it stand.] I've never really handled horses before? If--I mean, if there's anyone in the general area of Saffron who knows something about it, then I'd really--
[FOOM OH CHRIST THERE'S FIRE
Reid jumps back with a yelp when a bright mane and tail bursts into life, flaring blue and proud and looking terrifying despite the horse stumbling back to its knees without Reid's support. It all looks very impressive and Reid is just going to AVOID TOUCHING THE FIRE KTHX.
And then one of the eggs besides the flaming pony, a purple egg with a scary face, starts to hatch. And in the corner of the screen, a blue lavender-tipped tentacle reaches over and grabs Reid's bag, dragging it away.
Reid is busy eyeing the flaming pony warily, so he's caught completely by surprise when his scary purple egg hatches and OH GOD IT'S A DINOSAUR THAT IS SO COOL BUT DAMN THOSE ARE BIG TEETH
A baby Aerodactyl, at least the size of Reid (that's one big baby), spreads its wings beside the kneeling Ponyta, sending pieces of egg everywhere, before starting to beat its wings and letting out a terrifying shriek. And right now, it's eyeing Reid like a snack.
Reid instinctively backs up, and then the screen is suddenly covered with a white glow from all the various Pokemon that just found the evolution stones Reid had in his bag.
The Ponyta lets out an angry whinny when the dinosaur whacks it with a furiously beating wing. A Mismagius and a Chandelure fly over them, howling and chattering, and the Aerodactyl lunges for Reid, only to be knocked out of the way by a Ninetales. The baby dinosaur snaps at the fox, trying to go for the throat, but it's still too weak to withstand Elle. Reid stumbles over, fumbling with his belt of balls, when he's hit in the head by a soaring Musharna. He stumbles again, holding his head, and behind him, the Mismagius and the Chandelure are taking turns swooping in and pinching the sides of the baby Ponyta. The Ponyta neighs furiously, trying to get on its legs so it can kick one of the giggling bastards, but it's still too weak and its trainer is too busy being dizzy and trying to get the homicidal dinosaur under control to notice the torment.
Why did Reid think getting a goddamn menagerie was a good idea?]

[action]
Crow was just heading back to the city center after the usual training session -- a day like every day, really -- but hearing some commotion nearby caused him to stop in his track and search for the source of the noise.
Needless to say, finding out what it was has left him rather awed. It's not a common occurrence to watch eggs hatching, Pokémon evolving and all that other shit happening all at once. Kind of reminds him of some of the mornings with his adopted kids back when they lived together in Satellite (except the kids can all stand on their own legs just fine and none of them has ever tried to eat Crow, of course). Good times.
The duelist tilts his head while watching the scene, smirking a bit to himself. As if mimicking him, the Murkrow sitting on his shoulder does exactly the same.]
Having fun?
[He knows he is.]
[action]
And then he is dive-bombed by his Mismagius. He ducks, narrowly missing getting smacked by a cackling ghost, and snatches his back from where his Pokemon dragged it.]
If this looks like fun, then maybe you should--
[Wait crap the dinosaur's loose and swooping in to bite Reid. This profiler is hitting the deck, and luckily, he's too quick for the dinosaur to eat.
Careful, Crow, the dinosaur might think you look tastier.]
[action]
What, join in? Man, it's kinda tempting, but I don't wanna steal your spotlight!
[If only he could make it sound more teasing than it already is, he would.
... And no, he doesn't seem alarmed that there's a freaking dinosaur baby bigger than him running around; it's just a predator with some very sharp teeth looking for food, WHAT IS THERE TO WORRY ABOUT.]
