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!
Hmm, I guess... [ No, he knows, but at the same time, there really isn't a way to have anything like that in this world, is there?
... ] You could try remembering a movie on one of the memory petals... would that work? I don't know how long the movie would play for... but we've got to be a long way from TV shows with special effects.
[ How long would one of those petals keep going for, anyway? ]
[There's a strange sort of pause as Cilan stares at Red for a moment... and then suddenly slams his hands on the table, shaking the table with the force of it.]
Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that sooner??
[Judging by his tone, however, it's not frustration, but excitement that his emotional state is in as he reaches across the table to grab Red's shoulders. (Look at all that sparkly glitter ending up in their food now too, whoops)]
Red, after we're done here, let's go to the Memory Tree! We have to try to see if we can get one of these memory petals to work!!
[ You better be dragging him out of the door by the time they've placed away the food into the boxes and carrier bag, Cilan. Red is downing that tea for you! ]
[Good thinking Red, because Cilan is absolutely going to be dragging you out the door once everything is properly situated, not letting go of his friend's arm until they reach the memory tree as he steps back away, considering.]
Now that we're here... which movie to start with first, I wonder? There's so many different flavors to choose from: there's the one I mentioned before with Princess Pokemon's Holiday, or something a little more action-oriented like The Tyranic Tyranitar or Enter the Beartic...
[ Ugh, don't get all excited and hold his arm and make it easy for him forget about feeling all awkward and just appreciate standing here with you instead-- ]
Well... [ He thinks he remembers a tyranitar? That would be interesting...
...
......... we've got an idea. ]
I wanna see the most action-packed, high explosion movie with the best special effects ever!
[How about that Tyranitar idea he mentioned before? With some concentration, he seems to be thinking intensely here: so intense that there's even sparks dancing through the air around him for several minutes or more before finally, he reaches out to grab a memory petal flowing through the air by him, turning with a flourish to inspect it with Red.
It's not perfect, but it looks like a rather clear memory of what looks like a Tyranitar the size of... well, Godzilla, since that's what it's paying homage too, as it emerges from the mountainside, soon standing high above the city and demonstrates it's ability to tear out skyscrapers and breathe an immensely powerful flamethrower attack...]
He's never seen needing to call up a memory petal requiring that much intensity that Cilan displayed, but he'll excuse it for the sight of the oversized pokémon swatting off a billboard with the back of its stubby arm on the way past it. Which is awesome and the way we love to see property damage because heck yeah.
His gaze springs from the petal to Cilan though, to around them and then back. How much is this memory going to show? Should he totally suggest they sit down because who the heck stands while watching a movie-- ]
[... Yeah they probably should have accounted for that, but after the first twenty or so minutes, the memory sort of blurs around it's edges a little, but not too badly that you can't tell what's going on yet. Still, Cilan sighs a little upon noting this.]
I might have to experiment more with this in order to have a better flavor to taste, but what do you think of it so far?
[ Okay yeah dude, by five minutes they were definitely getting somewhere to sit. ]
It's amazing! [ His head whips to face Cilan. ] I never knew a memory could play for this long!
[ This is no short amount. ]
But...maybe it's starting to get hard to see because it's so long. It's just a petal. [ A pretty mystical petal, but still a petal. He places a hand hovering close to it, but not directly above it and in the way. ] If you could take a memory from there, and put it into something else that could handle it...
[ ...he says, as if that's a thing he could even dream of achieving, but wouldn't that be ideal? ]
Perhaps... still, [And here, he smiles, allowing a feeling of pride to manifest in the form of a brighter glow around him.] It's an amazing taste, getting to see part of a movie I like and have remembered the flavor of fondly enough for it to make an appearance here.
[ What did we say about getting all fuzzy and that here. Red ducks his head at Cilan's brighter presence, but gradually looks back to him too--or the petal. ]
...Did you want to take some more back to your place to experiment with? Try the same movie again, it might come out better a second time. Or a different movie.
[He could totally take you in a fight if he wanted to, except...]
... Red, relax, I was joking. [(WAS HE??)] Aside from occasionally startling me with her presence when I least expect it, she hasn't really caused that many problems for me recently.
[... That he's aware of right now, anyway. Has she been rearranging furniture randomly when he's not home or something else otherwise that would annoy him...]
Oh, so you haven't noticed she's...? --That's fine. [ Let's just interrupt our thought there. Hum de dum. ] Anyway, it's going to be hard letting everyone watch it in the house. Gengar will probably enjoy it the most out of all of my pokémon.
[ He's definitely going to let Gengar move around some furniture too while Cilan's distracted. ]
[Cilan raises an eyebrow at that slip there, but otherwise...]
I suppose you might be right about that... in that case, it should be a fine movie-watching group consisting of the two of us, Gengar, and... Pansage has already seen this movie before, but maybe he and Stunfisk would like to watch it with us too.
We know how you get about ghost types. [ He waves a hand as he explains. ] If you can't stop thinking about how there's a ghost type in the room with you, she's going to pick it up the whole movie!
I mean, she might come and cuddle up closer to you for it... but do you want to cuddle with a gengar?

No there's no time to really look at that with an ecstatic guy right in our face. ]
O-- okay! [ He can't even glimpse between them, looking back at the face full of Cilan in front of him in the brief effort. ]
You sure you can wait that long? [ Are you really really sure. ]

If she can promise not to create any disturbances during the movie, then she's more than welcome to join in and watch it with us.
