003. [Voice/Action for Route 44]
[AUDIO]
[Kimblee has been fairly absentee for the last few days; when his connection becomes active over the PGC, it...well, it might not be exactly clear as to why, but it goes a long way toward explaining it, at least in part.
The connection snaps to life suddenly, though it isn't a video feed - this is entirely sound, the Voice connection having kicked in as the Gear hits the ground hard. The audio isn't simply white noise, however, nor is it entirely the ever-present background music threading its way through one of the routes near Mahogany Town; that music is present for a brief moment after the Gear connects with the ground, only to be violently interrupted by the unmistakable sound of something blowing the hell up.
Depending on your particular point of view, however, what's possibly more disconcerting than the sudden eruption is the sound that follows immediately after it - it's a bizarre, harsh combination of laughing and shrieking, the sound pitchy and manic and completely uncontrolled. It carries on at about the same utterly deranged clip for quite some time before slowly dying down as the person in question gets a hold of himself; when Kimblee speaks, however, his voice is still shaking hard, and it's obvious he's still not...quite as in control as he'd like to be.]
...beautiful...absolutely beautiful!
[A brief pause.]
That was better...it's been quite a while since I've heard something so moving. Yes, that was much, much better. Such a beautiful sound...
[And then there's the usual white-noise sounds that are a bit hard to distinguish, rustling and footsteps and the like, followed by something that's decidedly more distinct: after a moment, there's something that's definitely singing audible over the connection - not any particular words, or any particular tune, even, just vocalized nonsyllables that Kimblee seems to be making up as he goes, but from the sound of it he's very, very content, if a bit unstable.
And then the feed cuts off.]
[ACTION]
[A short while after that audio post hits the network (the posting itself the result of a somewhat awkward grab at the Gear once he'd realized he'd dropped it), Kimblee can still be found on Route 44; he's no longer screamingly manic, but he definitely looks...rough, for lack of a better term. His hair is draped haphazardly over his left shoulder, the usual long ponytail mussed up and disheveled; his eyes are distant, holding a bit of an unfocused, wild look to them, and despite the fact that he doesn't look like he's slept in some time, there's a general sense of manic energy about him that hasn't quite faded.
This may or may not have to do with the obvious signs of those explosions in his general vicinity, as well as the fact that he's in the process of recalling a rather fainted Electrode to its Pokéball.
...well. Someone seems to have figured out exactly what Selfdestruct does; as a result, Kimblee's a bit...worked up. To put it lightly.]

[Archer's smirk is weak at best; he is thoroughly embarrassed by that display. He's not used to losing control so easily - at least not when it comes to openly freaking out.]
I've actually purchased another egg. [The egg is actually back at the base; he didn't want to risk putting that in danger had Kimblee decided to attack or something.] Something called a "Houndour." I've been informed that it's a Fire-type.
no subject
...unless he's given orders to, or you do something that makes it clear that doing so is necessary. At which point, yes, you're going to die.]
Oh? [So much headtilting at the mention of that egg, good sir.] Houndour...I didn't take you to be the sort to care much for dogs, Archer.
no subject
[It's not something he's going to think about now, though. Instead he focuses on Kimblee's remark.]
A dog? No, I've never cared for dogs. What are you talking about?
[Somehow or other the most literal-minded person in the world has managed to miss the pun in the Pokémon's name. It takes some serious skill to be this amazing.]
no subject
...can you do me a favor and please think about the thing's name for a moment...?
no subject
Houndour; I don't see--
[...Hound.]
[Hold on, facepalming now.]
no subject
[Because the only other explanation is that you just managed to hurt yourself somehow, though he wouldn't be surprised either way.]
no subject
[His life, what is his life.]
no subject
[So awkward he could die!]
I assume this purchase is to give you something of an advantage over the local gym?
no subject
Yes; it was the only Fire-type this person was selling. I do hope it will be useful.
no subject
[He can just imagine the amount of bitching if it's not.]
