PUZZLE 004 [ROUTE 32 - VIDEO/ACTION]

[snapandscoot]

[[Should you be wandering the streets of Violet City today, chances are you'll see Emmy happily striding along! If you're nearby, however, chances are you'll be clearing the road fairly soon when you see the Pokemon slowly gliding along behind her.

It's her newly evolved Gyarados and she's quite a monster.]]

Isn't this fantastic, Magik? You've gotten so big!

[[As Emmy walks, Magik rumbling in agreement, she starts breaking into song. Her voice, while not trained, is strong and pure, and she carries the notes with ease. Occasionally, she'll turn to look at the other pokemon following her with a mixture of mild concern and amusement; it's her Ariados, and he's happily bouncing along to the tune.

Should you be from her world, chances are you'll recognize it.

Confident in her surroundings, Emmy twirls and spins with the music, all the while meandering down the road, followed by her two Pokemon. Coming to the end of the melody, she pauses, wrinkling her nose slightly.]]

Oh, what came after that part....

[[...well, she'll just have to start from the beginning again!]]

[Oh, this song sounds kinda familiar... Hold on, hold on, give him a moment...]

Is that the Song of the Sea?

[Video]

[snapandscoot]

[[She'll pause her singing when she hears the voice, smiling brightly.]]

Yes! It's quite a beautiful song, isn't it Luke?

[Video]

[vengefulyears]

It is. It's been so many years since I last heard it.

[video]

[paladinlost]

[Oooooh, Gyarados. *_*]

Congratulations! You now have a strong ally and a future way to cross rivers and the sea as needed. I trust you do not regret the investment?

[video]

[snapandscoot]

Ah, Mr Harvey!

[[Said Gyarados will peek over her shoulder while she replies to the message!]]

Your advice was excellent; I didn't realise she was going to grow so big! Gyarados must be very powerful pokemon!

[video]

[paladinlost]

They are, though Electric-attacks cause them great pain. You might want to look into attacks that are strong against Electric-types.

[puzzling]

[ oh snap, it's a Gyarados. Layton has always heard very good things about their strengths, which is nice but their size and rage... He should warn her about that but oh, that song. ]

The Song of the Sea. That's quite the blast from the past.

[video]

[snapandscoot]

Isn't it just, Professor? ...ah, well, not so much for me; the whole debacle only occured the week before I arrived here, after all.

....for you it...must have been years ago.

[video]

[puzzling]

Yes, three years ago back home and six months short of five years, if you count my time in this world.

Time does fly by.

[explosivecombat]

[Kimblee had known he was supposed to meet up with Emmy in Violet City; at the same time, his first order of business after facing down Falkner (something he had insisted on doing immediately, just wanting to get this gym challenge over with) had been locating the inn and sleeping for...ever. Forever had sounded like a lovely amount of time.

These routes are difficult and no one understands, all right.

However, now that he's awake, actually seeing where it is that he's ended up sounds like a lovely idea; it isn't long before the music catches his attention, first and foremost.

The second thing that catches is a bright yellow coat, familiar despite the fact that he's previously only seen it through a video screen; the third is the -

oh what in the good hell is that Leto take the whole goddamn vehicle tbh]

...ah, Miss...Altava.

[Though he's obviously addressing Emmy, his eyes are still kind of on the tremendous murderbeast there, uh.]

Quite the pleasure to finally...meet...you.

[god the fangs on that thing

he

doesn't do well with teeth, you see

oh dear]

[action]

[snapandscoot]

[[Emmy has happily restarted her song, still skipping down the road, when she hears someone say her name. The voice is familiar!]]

Hm?

[[Well. Hello there. She's been wondering when you would show up!]]

Ah, Mr Kimblee! We meet at last!

[[She'll excitedly skip over to you!...you don't mind her Gyarados staring you down do you

of course you don't]]

...is...everything all right?

[action]

[explosivecombat]

Ah...yes, of course.

[everything is fine

no really

everything is fine

he just lost his ability to can somewhere around here

he'll find it eventually

...

okay, you know what, let's kind of...force our pride down for a second because there is no way he's going to have a normal conversation with that thing around]

...Might I ask that you recall the massive sea serpent? It's a bit overbearing, if you don't mind.

[Video]

[hintcoinplz]

[Luke will let her sing for a while before interrupting, mostly because he likes Emmy's singing.]

Oh, I remember this song! Gosh, it's been such a long time since I've heard it!

[Video]

[snapandscoot]

[[...oh don't you dare say that to her she will be very flustered]]

Ah, has it been, Luke? I know the Professor is from 3 years in the future; what about yourself?

video;

[dreamsoftruelove]

Such a beautiful song you sing.

video;

[snapandscoot]

[[Emmy stops and blinks when she hears the voice, smiling brightly at the compliment.]]

I'm nothing compared to the original artist, but it is a lovely song! I've always loved singing.

video;

[dreamsoftruelove]

[Giselle seems really happy to hear someone say that.]

I just love singing myself. It's a beautiful thing after all.

[video]

[isahero]

[HOLY FUCK A GYARADOS--- only America doesn't get put off at all, he's more impressed than anything. Especially with how they're all cheerfully singing as they walk along.]

That's a nice song, what is it?

[video]

[snapandscoot]

It's called Song of the Sea! There's quite a bit of fascinating mythology behind it, but I just like the tune!

[[Said Gyarados is still gliding behind Emmy as she walks, looking zen as hell.

the calmest Gyarados, bro]]

[video]

[isahero]

[EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE because wow since when are they calm.

Though he does smile about that.]

That's a nice name! It's soothing as well so.

[ACTION FOREVER]

[determinator]

[Look, over on the horizon! Is that a giant sea serpent, he thinks it is.]

[Let's investigating, then! Because really, a giant sea serpent might be a good thing to steal study~]

[...Wait, hang on, that trainer looks familiar-- Oh! Shoot, what was her name? Emmy...?]

Good afternoon.

[Just going to be admiring your giant sea serpent, don't mind him!]

Emmy, was it? It's a pleasure to meet you in person.

[Hmm. You know, he remembers Kimblee mentioning you. Weren't the two of you going to meet for a battle?]

[....]

[...How badly did he kick your ass, man.]

[FOREVER AND EVER]

[snapandscoot]

[[Oh now, what's this? You look rather familiar!]]

Ah, you're Mr Archer! I believe we've met over the video feed, yes?

[[......let's just not with the battle, shall we]]

[determinator]

[...That bad, huh?]

Yes, that's correct. Have you seen Kimblee yet? He mentioned his plans on meeting with you here.

[And battling. Anything else that might have been mentioned has been blocked from our memory, what are you talking about~? :>]

[video] FASHIONABLY LATE. I AM FASHIONABLY LATE.

[scientificflair]

[...you would, Emmy.

You would.]

Well. It seems someone's in a rather good mood today, aren't they.

[Spoilers: It's not Descole! Even though he still has the...uh, mood lighting or something going on in his room, as well as the wonky camera angles from hell because it's just more awesome that way.]

HEY NOW THE PARTY DON'T START 'TIL YOU WALK IN ANYWAY

[snapandscoot]

[[And way to ruin hers, man! It's pretty hard to mistake that beautiful Tim Curry voice.]]

Do you have a problem with me singing, Descole?

[[She will stop and pout at the camera just for you!]]
