โพ TAGS @mod WORDS 535 NOTES idk what im looking for lmao | Route one was... Different and familiar all at the same time. It was wilder than anything he was used even coming from a farm town and because of that it was exciting. He wanted to see it all, and explore it all. He definitely wanted to get pictures too. The eggs in his bag were nice and secure as he dug around for the camera bag somewhere on his person. Someone might have told him that he had packed too much but he wasn't about to leave home without having everything he needed. After all how could he be an artist without his supplies? And while he couldn't exactly stop and sketch something out right now that didn't mean he couldn't get a couple pictures to go over later. These rolling hills would be perfect inspiration for something calming to look at probably. The tall plants hiding all manners of things inside them.
He'd never gotten tired of seeing the sights around town when he was younger. Especially since Solaceon Town had been something of a farming community itself. While he didn't care for how small minded it was there was no denying that it was a beautiful place for scenery. He knew that Calla had probably already seen this place and was probably already well ahead of him. But that didn't mean he wasn't going to spend some time to enjoy it. As much as he wanted to see Calla there was no real rush in finding him. After all they would meet up eventually. They always did. There was nothing that could keep them apart for too long considering how long they had actually been friends.
Finally his fingers wrapped around the camera bag and started to wiggle the device out of it. He probably could have just used his cellphone for this but the quality wouldn't be as good and he wouldn't be as proud showing them off to Calla in the long run. After all documenting the trip was part of the experience and putting together a scrapbook would probably be fun. There were so many things that he wanted to do now that he was out on his own. So many things that he could do now that he was so far away from home. Excitement bubbled up into his chest as he pulled the camera up and began to focus on getting some shots in.
He wondered if he would get lucky enough to spot a Pokemon or two while he was out here. After all the warnings were that you should never go into the tall grass without a Pokemon or else you would be attacked by a wild one. He had caught a couple of Pokemon back in town but it felt like an entirely different experience seeing one in the actual wild wild. For some reason the Pokemon inside town hadn't seemed that much different from ones that he had seen at school. But out here there were wild and free ones that hadn't interacted with humans very much. While it was probably a dangerous prospect it meant that he could maybe get a glimpse into something never before seen if he tried hard enough. |

โพ WORDS 1055 NOTES idk what im looking for lmao | She had found the source of the problem this time. Large amounts of that weird fungus all over the corn crops. They were dangerous now. If anyone ate this they would end up getting sicker than a trubbish in an organic market. Of course that meant that she couldn't let it sit here. Carefully she began to peck and prod at the stalks. She wasn't sure if they needed to be killed at the root or just taking off the tops would work... But then where was she going to put them? She couldn't let anyone eat on them after all... Maybe... She could stick them in a tree? But that would be a prime place for someone that could fly up there to have a nibble at them. And putting them in the lake might make the Pokemon in the lake sick... It wasn't like there were a lot of garbage cans or anything out there. She couldn't let anyone eat this toxic stuff though... With heat on the rise it made it hard for the corn to grow properly as it was.
Frustration grew as she tried to continue plucking at them. There was no way she was going to ask for help though. She had found this problem and she was going to be the one to solve it. Even if it exhausted her she wouldn't stop. She was going to be the one to help everyone with this and then no one would ever have to get sick again. Spearow needed to be careful not to accidentally get any of the nasty stuff in her mouth either. The smell was foul as could be as another stalk fell to the ground. Hammered at by her peck attack that had dropped it quickly into the ground she felt a sense of accomplishment with it. Surely there couldn't be that many left now! At least in this section... There were miles and miles of corn plants! And she would certainly be able to hit them all if she tried hard enough!
No one would ever be able to tell her otherwise either. Gathering up her energy she flapped her short wings and flew back up into the sky. If nothing else she could map out the area in order to find all of the places she needed to weed out. There were so many patches and she would be the one to take care of them all. Circling over she of course kept on the look out for someone who might be stupidly eating the corn. After all she knew there were plenty of Pokemon looking for a snack and that they might not know not to eat them. The only one she spotted from her height was a human though, playing with some sort of shiny thing. It distracted her enough that she found herself slowly decreasing her height until finally she landed on a fence close to the strange boy.
What was he doing? Was he surveying? Was he trying to steal all of her hard work? < I've been hard at work here! What are you doing taking pictures of it? > Her wings fluffed up and she hopped down from the fence. If he was just going to sit there and take pictures then he could just get out of here and take them elsewhere. She didn't need any help with this at all. < I'm taking care of the corn fungus problem and I don't need any help from you! > Morick honestly had no idea that corn could even get fungus. He especially didn't know why this bird was screaming at him either. All he wanted to do was take pictures and make sure he got a bunch of good shots for later on.
"Uhh... I'm just here to take some pictures..." He held up the camera and snapped a picture of the Spearow just to prove his point. Of course he probably should have asked but he'd never gotten this close to a flying type before so it was a really good opportunity. He didn't want to bother the bird but to be fair she bothered him first. Sort of. "I don't know what corn fungus is." He watched as the bird sized him up a little bit. He wasn't good at reading people to begin with and it was impossible to read a bird's face it seemed. They didn't have a great amount of expression with their beaks after all. < It's ruining the corn crops! Everyone is going to get sick if I don't do something about it! > She insisted that it was her responsibility but really what could she do about it all? She was already tired from how much she had done so far.
It was all way too confusing for Morick though. He didn't understand why she felt like she had to work so hard for it when she could just tell the farmer or something that there was a problem. Then maybe they could end up working together or something to fix it. "I don't under-" The Spearow flew up some, flapping her wings at him. < That's right you don't understand! You don't! You don't! > She was panting tiredly as she did this. Falling onto the ground as she expended the last of her energy. Hours of trying to get rid of the fungus problem had exhausted her to no end. As violent as she was towards him Morick felt bad watching her pant and worm her way around like she was. It wasn't her fault that she had bitten off more than she could chew at this time. "Why don't you let me help you? We can find a farmer or something and you can tell him about the fungus problem?"
It seemed like a good enough solution to him as the bird sat there. Staring up at him and too tired to flap her wings this time. She didn't want help. She just didn't. But she wasn't strong enough to fight or argue this time. His hands went to a Pokeball and he hesitated for only a moment before clicking it to try and catch the Spearow inside of it. He didn't want to carry the bird everywhere and this seemed like a good way to get her to rest herself too. |

โพ WORDS 605 NOTES idk what im looking for lmao | That was... Moderately strange to say the least. He hadn't been expecting to catch a Pokemon so soon and for such a weird reason. But he would have to be sure to tell the next farmer he saw that there were some issues with the corn or something. Not that he knew exactly what a corn fungus was but that wasn't going to stop him from keeping his promise to the Spearow either. Who... He guessed... Was his Pokemon now too? He had plenty of Pokemon so far and the fact of the matter was he couldn't wait to show Calla the progress he had made so far. Sure he wasn't in this to be some big and bad trainer but that didn't mean that he wasn't going to try his best for his Pokemon either. He couldn't wait to show him everything and everyone. He felt.... Giddy? If that was the right word. It had been such a long time since they had spent any real time together that now they were going to be able to do whatever they wanted.
Carefully he snapped a picture of the now full Pokeball, wanting to remember the moment. Sure this wasn't the first capture that he had done and it wouldn't be the last but it was still special. He'd managed to make a new friend and that was something to celebrate wasn't it? Finally he grabbed it and straightened back out. Clipping it to his belt proved difficult with one hand but he managed it, He was pretty talented after all. At least he figured he was. But there were still things here to see and to do. At least that was the way he saw it. He couldn't move on until he explored a little bit more and he had to admit that he was kind of curious about what a corn fungus might look like. It would be interesting to take a picture of or something.
Without hesitation he hopped over the fence that separated the road from the fields. He didn't really see why it would be a big deal if he just took a look around. After all it wasn't like he was hurting any of the plants. Though he wasn't really sure what to look for when it came to whatever a corn fungus was. There were plenty of things that a fungus could look like in his experience. Either the weird shit on the top of the bowl that had been in the fridge too long or whatever that gunk was inside of the dorm showers that creeped him out. There were tons of kinds of fungi and he was pretty sure whatever he was looking for wasn't some goopy shower one. Or maybe it was... Fuck he didn't know. He was pretty sure that he would be able to find it eventually though.
If not he could always ask the Spearow he caught for a hand in finding it. She probably knew better than he did what this stuff looked like. Or how to spot it at least. But Morick wanted to try and give it a go on his own if he could. That way he wouldn't have to tell Calla that he couldn't even find a weird mushy fungi on his own. Or would it just be fungus? Literature had never been his strong suit that was for sure. He was an art student and they were lucky he bothered with whatever electives that didn't revolve around that in its entirety. After all they weren't exactly interesting to him so paying attention had been hard. |
