Need to talk privately with Cilan? Send him a message via the crystal or carrier pigeon? Want to meet with him without posting a log for it? Here's the place to do it!
Wh--no. [The emotional effects he had going on a moment ago very quickly vanish and his expression changes--it has to be called pouting, there's no other way to describe it--as he huffs a little, almost sounding offended.]
It's a character from a movie I was in back home. You remember right, Pansage? "The Legend of the Pokemon Knight"?
[Pansage nods; yep, we definitely remember that. Cilan sighs, now reminiscing about it.]
Of course, originally I was a very different character in that movie and transforming into the Pokemon Sorcerer was something that was spontaneously added in towards the end of filming, but I don't have the material to make the costume we wore before switching to this one, nor do I think it would be fitting to play the role we had before it for this occasion...
[So, not a favorite cartoon character, but definitely based on a character of some kind...]
Edited (LAST EDIT I MAKE I SWEAR) 2015-11-02 01:27 (UTC)
[ ...Cilan is, for certain, getting very into this "new role" challenge in absolutely every single way, more so than even Thras possibly intends for people to do.
And you know what, you do you Cilan. Except Red's brain backtracks through all that to where this all originates to in the first place, leading to shift of his expression from 'uh' to...something just a little less puzzled.
(but still plenty so) ]
...so you showed up in Empatheias while you were filming? [ a beat. ] Is that why you have that outfit?
Oh, no, that movie was made quite a while ago! [Let's see...] Before I arrived here in Empatheias, I was traveling around the Johto region, getting myself prepared for a fishing tournament that I was supposed to have gone to by now. [And here, he sighs a little.] But then there was this incident with a Gyarados that happened and delayed us from getting there, and just when I thought that the matter was settled and I was ready to be on my way... we suddenly found ourselves here instead.
It was quite an unexpected taste, honestly.
[Anyway. He then holds up the mask as he continues.]
These were just props that I already had on hand that turned out to be useful for the movie. I've been keeping them since then, so I still had them in my bag when I was brought here to this place.
[Because why wouldn't he be traveling around with a mask and cape at the ready at all times.
...Though, there is a possibility that cape is actually cloth that originally belonged on a table rather than an actual cape, but sometimes you have to work with what you've got.]
...he should just accept it and move on, right? right. There is a baby wiggling on his lap and feeling up his arm now for that apple he was meant to be cutting. Back to that. ]
I don't think you need to dress up for it, but if you want to... [ "go ahead"?? He doesn't know how to quite finish that. ] Well, you already have the costume.
[ ... ] You must've had a lot of fun with that movie to still be carrying it around.
Oh, absolutely! As a Movie Connoisseur, it was a wonderful opportunity getting to be on the big screen, playing a role that I've always admired when watching the grand epics that came before... and of course, it was a lot of fun to do with my friends.
[And here, his tone becomes wistful, fond even.]
Iris, the great and wise Dragon Master that guides people on the path to victory, and Ash, the valiant knight who becomes stronger in his quest to stop the villain and help those in need... actually, given their respective tastes, I would say that they were very fitting roles for them to play.
[Sure, Iris isn't a Dragon Master yet, but Cilan believes that she will indeed be a great and wise one someday. And Ash, of course, is definitely the heroic type, no doubt about that. Especially considering the amount of times he's been able to stop Team Rocket when they are doing bad things, and just how much effort he puts into helping others, especially Pokemon that might be in trouble.]
We put a lot of hard work into it, and I can happily say that our passion was able to create a movie with a spicy and novel taste to it!
Well, during our travels, we met Luke, who was an aspiring film-maker. Originally, he was planning on having one of his Pokemon, Zorua, play all of the parts he needed for his movie, but... Zorua only wanted to play the part of the princess. As a result, my friends and I ended up volunteering to play the other parts he needed for the movie, which he happily accepted.
[...Does Red even know what a Zorua is...]
Since then, we've made two movies together, which both received positive reception in the film festivals and contests they were submitted to. The second one we made even helped Luke earn the opportunity to get to work with Poke'star Studios, where he'll be able to direct and produce even more movies for everyone to see.
It's a shame that we won't be in his next movie, but... I honestly can't wait to see what it will be like, once it's released. [Ahaha]. Knowing Luke, though, I'm sure it will have quite an exciting taste!
He actually submitted them to film festivals? [ That... sounds bigger than he thought. Were film festivals big deals? Red had been imagining a guy at a college they were helping with than anything beyond that. Maybe they were college-type film festivals. Or something. ...Or maybe not. ] But, what's the 'Pokéstar Studios'? A film company?
And how was a zorua supposed to play all the parts? [ yes, that's definitely important too. ]
Yes, that's right--they're responsible for so many classics, many of which have won the Pokécademy Award! "Gone With The Pokemon", "Princess Pokemon's Holiday", the exciting movies of the "Pokemon Wars" saga... ahh, it really is wonderful just how many amazing films they've been able to create, each of them having their own unique taste...
[......Oh wait, you asked something about Zorua, right--]
Zorua is a special Pokemon that can change into other forms using it's Illusion ability--not only can it take on the appearance of other Pokemon, it can also change to make itself appear human to those who meet it.
[Here, he can use his crystal for a moment to try to offer a mental image to share of what looks like a small black fox, before it then changes shape with a glow of light to look now like this, which was the part that Zorua had played in the movie they made with Luke.]
[ ...Red has heard none of these movies. Asking about Zorua was a good idea, because that's easier to digest. ]
Like a ditto? [ It's asked before the imagery comes, which he accepts. ] Ah...
[ It looks like a vulpix, somewhat. But definitely ditto-like. It's actually cool to witness, if even only via memory, a small tug of longing in his chest. He hasn't caught a pokémon in so long. ]
That's just like a ditto -- do you have those in [ what was the name again...? ] Unove?
[Don't tell Cilan that you have never heard of these movies, he will find SOME WAY to have them play here so that he can subject you to them, mark our words.]
Unova, and no, we don't really have any living there. [Still...] The difference between Zorua's form change and Ditto's, however, is that Zorua can not copy the same attacks as the Pokemon they are imitating. The ability is mainly used for trickery, or as a method to hide and protect themselves from threats in the wild.
[ Huh. It was still interesting, getting a slow nod out of Red for the information. And funny how the guy was going to use the pokémon for all the roles in his movie, though perhaps that was another difference between a ditto and a zorua.
They're down half the apple now in his hold, and the next slice the little guy goes snatches away jerks him back, knocking him off Red's lap onto the couch flipped over with his collection of little legs all wiggling in surprise. No, he can get up, he's got this!!!
Red huffs, lifting an arm that was to help before the creature got it, and instead of returning to where he was he goes for burrowing himself as close to the crook between Red's thigh and the back of the couch, which... doesn't entirely work, but as he goes still, seems to be good enough for him. Let him recover from this moment of embarrassment!!
He rests his arm on the now free space of his own leg, exhaling through his now in a sigh. If they could go home for a while, for a week--wouldn't that be something? Funny how they got from challenges to this.
It wasn't really a thought worth lingering on. ]
Well, [ he holds a second before continuing ] whatever you do for the challenge, I'm sure you'll be fine. You won't have any trouble with it.
Well, thank you Red, I really appreciate hearing that.
[...And now he seems to suddenly turn his attention back towards the apples--or rather, the ones that Pansage is reaching out to grab after having already sneakily stuffed one into his mouth.]
Now, now, Pansage, we have to try to save some of those if we're going to use them for an apple pie... ah, speaking of which--[clapping his hands together as his focuses on Red again]--would you be interested in helping us with that? It would be a perfect opportunity to learn more about baking and desserts, don't you think?
[In fact, come to think of it, didn't he promise to do some cooking with you sometime? (...A promise that was made right before that thing that happened during Sosyne's attack, but let's not point out that latter detail, okay.)]
[Well, it wasn't exactly about you learning to cook solely for yourself, but...]
Yes, we've talked about it before... I said that it would be nice to find something that would have a fun taste when prepared with friends, if I recall correctly.
[And here, he holds up an apple.]
And I think this would be one such dessert that, while it does require some care and attention to details, I'm sure would be enjoyable for you to learn how to bake, if you'd like to that is.
[Red doesn't have to take part in this if he doesn't want to, but the offer is there all the same.]
[ There's a small part of his brain second-guessing what he thought to be Cilan as the older boy speaks, but there's no other time coming to mind, not including the line of thought he shares. Food with friends...?
On the other hand, that sounded exactly like the pancake thing. Which, either way, Red's looking from the apple to Pansage, then elsewhere when he doesn't want to watch any eyes of him. His lips part... ]
I... Sure! [ That went from 2 to 10. Just, one thing: ] Can you give me a sec?
[ He tips his head to the company curled up beside him, implying he'd like to deal with them first. There's a dark corner of the apartment just for them, much better than hanging around in his bag all day (which Red will need to find a bigger home for him soon. ...or just get him used to walking with him. ]
[If Cilan notices Red odd few seconds of hesitation there, he certainly doesn't comment on it.]
Oh, yes, of course! Please, take as much time as you need.
[You go take care of your centipede friend! Cilan's just going to check to make sure they've got the ingredients they need here for the pie, as well as getting out whatever equipment they'll need for preparing it.
...They haven't even started doing anything yet and Cilan is already sparkling with excitement as he gets everything ready, calm down son.]
[ Little 'pede guy needs little encouragement to unravel from his sulking state, which is less encouragement and more just the natural response to being picked up into arms without proper warning. But Red makes it a short trip from the couch and over to the spot he sleeps, kneeling down and leaving the slices of apple under the table that makes the roof of his own little room, the creature quick to scurry under with little whistling squeals. Seemingly content with that (as far as Red can tell), Red picks himself back up, finding Cilan already off in his world as he slowly makes his way over.
That guy has given the kitchen area more love than Red could ever in a lifetime or two. ]
So what do we do? [ We, right. There is a we in this, though Red doesn't know if it's truly safe to approach Cilan's spreading bubble of energy, or if he's really necessary to this. This is like seeing his mother bake... where are the videogames to play. ] Do you need to cut the apples? I can do that.
[Cilan is giving this kitchen the love that it has been neglected of for far too long. It's okay now, Red's kitchen, there is someone here now to offer the love that you deserve.]
Yes, we'll need to peel and cut the apples for our pie... but first--[And here, he points to the sink.]
You'll need to wash your hands first before we start doing anything. It's the very first and most important rule when it comes to maintaining proper hygiene in the kitchen, so once you've done that, then we'll rinse the apples and get started on peeling and cutting them.
[...So yeah, this is a little like dealing with your mother in the kitchen at first, sorry about that.]
[ Please stop flirting with the kitchen over there. ]
Oh-- sure, okay. [ That sounds reasonable, and completely like something Red would have skipped out on if not told. He's heading over to to the sink and turning it on to stick his hands under, though wondering at the same time: ] Why do we have to rinse the apples? They're not dirty. [ are they??? ] Aren't they going to be harder to peel that way? Why don't we leave the skin on?
[ Cilan what is this hassle, also this is why he told to play his games and not help with the cooking. ]
It's important to rinse fruits and vegetables before eating or cooking with them--like one's hands, we want to prevent the spread of bacteria, as well as the threat of contaminating the inner flesh with dirt or wax from the outside of the apple.
[To demonstrate, once Red moves aside after washing his hands, Cilan will start rinsing these apples under the water as he continues speaking.]
When baking pies with fruit in them, essentially you want to make a loose jam inside the crust, something that will remain firm and cohesive without resisting a fork or getting stuck in one's teeth. Apple skins can be detrimental to that, as they will prevent the apple pieces from melding neatly together with the other pieces inside.
But, not to worry, we can use the skins for something else, so they won't go to waste.
[The apples are rinsed and placed on the counter, along with a container to place the skins in. He holds up an apple and a knife and proceeds to peel it, somehow managing to get the skin off in one fluid strip because of course Cilan would show off a little here before discarding the peeled skin into the container provided. He then holds out another apple and the knife for Red to take.]
Alright, go ahead and take care of this one--be careful though, this knife has a pretty sharp edge to it.
[Red does already know how to peel an apple, right?]
Red has never peeled a fruit in his life. Slicing? Easy as pie-- actually no scratch that, if this is all the hassle that one has to go through to make a pie. Turning the apples into a loose jam? Were they going to have to mash them up like potatoes next?? Didn't you 'meld' metal???
Most of what Cilan says gets processed as one big 'okay, just do the thing' where Red doesn't question it any further (hey it probably sounds like sense--it sounds all technically correct, or something), withdrawing his wet hands from the sink to watch Cilan, which is the easiest of what he explains to follow. It's like a knife through soft butter, and though he hadn't tasted the fruit himself, he thought it was harder than that, was to cut through just moments ago. But he takes the knife and the fresh fruit, shifting it in his grip with a hum of acknowledgement. He'll be careful. ]
[ That's why the knife goes through a chunk of the apple and then catches into the edge of his palm, and both go clattering down with drops of his blood smeared along the steel. ]
Shiiiiiiit--damnit! [ He's hissing, moving back, pulling the hand close and face wincing as the pain shoots up with the gathering blood. It's the sleeves of the jacket he still wears that's kept his actual arms safe, but there's no worrying about that, ow ow ow-- ]
At first, Cilan almost doesn't automatically register that Red's accidentally cut his hand open--his first instinct is a twinge of displeasure at Red's swearing here, even opening his mouth to say something until he notices the blood...
There's a slight chill of fear that clings to the air momentarily, a second of freezing up at the sight of something that's making him think of the last time he saw someone else's--no, Red's blood, but thankfully Cilan seems to snap out of it quickly enough.]
...Ah! Hang on, don't move--[Red is probably too focused on his injury to notice Cilan walking away; there's the sound of running water in the background for a second, before Cilan is suddenly coming back over, grabbing Red's hand and pressing a wet cloth against the edge of his palm where the cut is.]
Here, hold this against your hand for a moment, okay? [He waits until Red's taken the cloth from him before he reaches down to pick up the knife and apple that clattered to the floor as he speaks.] This is quite an unfortunate taste... are you alright, Red?
