oo1 . video, action
[ Here you have a boy of about twelve, standing tensely under a tree, hair dripping. He hesitates, then addresses the camera with a little nod of hello, as though he's not quite sure he's done it right.
He used to be middle-aged and respectable, he'll not tolerate an entire crowd of strangers calling him Rupert. So. ]
I'm speaking as, um, a new arrival. My name is Giles.
I understand that there are... others like me. I don't intend to stay. But--
[ He turns-- the camera wobbles, he's never touched video chat before in his life-- to show the Ponyta standing mildly beside him, fire-mane spitting in the rain. ]
This fellow has been, um, keeping me company. The so-called handbook tells me next to nothing-- how many creatures are there? Are they all of an-- elemental nature? Is the rain a danger to him?
[ And, unthinkingly, with a high edge of irritation: ]
Where does the bloody irritating music come from?
[ Anyone in New Bark will find him at the foot of the route, stroking through the flames of his Ponyta's mane with a look of delighted fascination. He's hesitating, in the way of someone deciding how safe it is to ride a horse partly made of fire. ]

[Video] no worries!
Um, heheh... About that.
[Oh gosh, he's really going through with this. He's going to be the downer.]
Some of 'em...some of them aren't...such good company. In fact, you could say they can get kinda grizzly...
[Video]
How dangerous are they, exactly?
[Video]
Oh, you know, kinda like this-
[The feed is positioned a little farther back now, as Teddie proceeds to bend over and pick something else up, although it doesn't look like he has to bend too much. He visibly flinches at first, wincing from whatever he just got, before sitting back up and holding out his arm.
On it clings a pancham. Via her mouth.
Nothing too life threatening, sadly, but nonetheless unpleasant.]
