[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.

I just.....she's got so much anger and loneliness built up inside her that I just want to show her that someone cares! I don't know what else to do......
[video]
Date: 2012-08-26 01:06 am (UTC)[With that, she tries to get Page's attention.]
Excuse me, miss...? Your Kangaskhan is very sorry! But she's really only trying to help. She can sense that you're angry and lonely, and she doesn't know what to do. Could you try talking to her more? Letting her know your feelings?

Date: 2012-08-26 01:18 am (UTC)[[Not that that was overly defensive, or anything. She frowns harder.]]
She can help by just leaving me alone.
[[Her Kangaskhan sighs, shrugging at Fluttershy.]]
It's a bit of a work in progress, but I'm trying my best!

Date: 2012-08-26 01:34 am (UTC)[[But Page isn't looking at the camera or her Pokemon; rather, she's glaring at the ground with a somewhat pained look on her face as she digs her fingers into her arm.]]
But if it's going to make things easier, I suppose we can work something out. Especially if it means I can walk along without fearing abduction.

Date: 2012-08-26 01:41 am (UTC)How about anytime you want a hug, you open your arms in front of your Pokemon, and that will let her know she can go in? That way, it only happens when you want it.

Date: 2012-08-26 01:46 am (UTC)[[No promises that she'll actually do it, but....well, baby steps.]]
........ask her if she agrees, will you.
[[From the enthusiastic nodding, it's....fairly obvious, but still....]]
[video]
Date: 2012-08-26 01:48 am (UTC)Miss Kangaskhan, is that system all right with you...?
[video]
Date: 2012-08-26 02:00 am (UTC)It will take some getting used to, but I suppose I can manage.....
[[She looks forlorn for a bit, shuffling her feet and looking at the ground. Rolling her eyes, Page (with a look that says 'I'm going to regret this....') opens her arms.
The resulting hug is enthusiastic, as usual, but....a bit less likely to result in any cracked ribs.]]
Hm. Maybe you do have a talent for this sort of thing.
[video]
Date: 2012-08-26 02:08 am (UTC)Oh, how wonderful! I'm so happy for the both of you! what a great step!
[video]
Date: 2012-08-26 02:24 am (UTC)We'd better be going. Say thank you.
[[And Page promptly places the Gear in her Kangaskhan's paw, moving out of the image.]]
Maybe I'll actually be able to get through to her, now! Thank you so much!
