[It's rare for Fluttershy to actually try to get attention, yet here she is, turning on the Pokegear as she and Twilight travel towards the next town. She swallows, then speaks... Oh, and don't mind the Murkrow that's using her pink hair as a nest.]
Um... hello... I'm sorry if I'm bothering anyone, but... I thought I'd been hearing a lot of people struggling with their Pokemon lately... And I wanted to try and help...
See, my special talent is helping animals... I can talk to them and understand them... So, I thought, maybe if anyone would like me to try... I can talk to your Pokemon, and see if I can help with any problems you might be having...
Okay... Okay? Um... h-have a nice day, everyone.

Date: 2012-08-25 11:37 pm (UTC)Okay, so let me get this straight. You're a pony. With wings. Who hangs out with princesses. Who fell from the sky and got caught by a swarm of butterflies. Who then talked the butterflies out of being scared with magical pony powers. And then you came here, and now you're a human with cotton candy for hair, and you still talk to animals with your magical used-to-be-a-pony powers.
And now you're offering those special talents to help people out of the goodness of your formerly pony heart. Does that about cover it?

Date: 2012-08-25 11:45 pm (UTC)Yes, except I don't talk to animals with magic. It's a natural ability. This place takes away real magic... My friend, Twilight Sparkle, she's a unicorn, but she can't do magic here.
[... does that answer your question?]
no subject
Date: 2012-08-25 11:48 pm (UTC)Your friend Twilight Sparkle.
[Well, you know, if nothing else, at least she's firm in her convictions about this make-believe pony nonsense.]
Tell you what. Why don't you just talk to the egg for a while.

Or hey, maybe you could just ask it what name it wants.
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 12:29 am (UTC)[So she addresses the Togepi, instantly kinder.]
Name? Do you have a name? Your name? My name is Fluttershy. What's your name?
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 12:32 am (UTC)Egg! Hiiiii! Egg!
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 12:35 am (UTC)[Well, it's an unusual name, but she tries it.]
Name? Your name is Egg? Hi, Egg!

Date: 2012-08-26 12:38 am (UTC)[Evidently, the nameless Togepi has been overhearing Albert a lot lately.]

Date: 2012-08-26 12:41 am (UTC)Egg is working! Good boy, Egg! egg is a good worker!

Date: 2012-08-26 12:47 am (UTC)[A HEROIC EFFORT at saying the name of this amazingly nice person. Yes.]
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 12:51 am (UTC)That's a good boy, Egg! Such a good boy!
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 12:53 am (UTC)Great, that's nice and self-explanatory.
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 01:04 am (UTC)... Baby. He's a baby. It's... kind of like deciding a baby's name should be Googoo or Mama. But if that's what you want...

Date: 2012-08-26 01:20 am (UTC)Meanwhile, have an exasperated sigh.]
Look. It bothers you that much? You name the thing. It's all yours. Whatever you want. Be my guest. Call it Whizbanger or Melon Cake or Sprinkle Rainbow or whatever saddles your pony. Here's your Childlike Empress. Sing out a name and save the world if it makes you happy.

Date: 2012-08-26 01:30 am (UTC)... How about... Egghead? or Eggbert? That way, he won't be too confused. And I think they're cute.
no subject
Date: 2012-08-26 01:53 am (UTC)Sure. Fine. Eggbert it is.
