messianic: (And could not think of anything)

[Video] 004 ☽

[He's been given so much to think about these days. After his talk with Akito, that negativity, while not necessarily dampening his spirit, did get to him somewhat. To think that people still thought that way...it was a little frustrating, after everything he had fought for--

And then...A parrot and a missing name on the contact's list. It's little wonder his expression is contemplative, bordering a little, perhaps, on quietly sad.

It isn't like him to use his SFC, no, except for answering other's calls or privately calling others, but this is something he needs to do.

And perhaps...well, loneliness is something that he doesn't much deal with, normally, but even for someone like him, to lose is lonely. No matter how much he gets used to it.

But when he turns to the screen, his expression is as calm as always. There is...also a yellow parrot on his shoulder, which might be familiar to anyone who knew a [Bad username or site: treasurehunted title= @ livejournal.com]. The parrot seems to find picking up strands of blue hair and dropping them entertaining, so that is what it is doing.

Minato doesn't seem to mind--or at least, he ignores it.]


Is anyone familiar with how to take care of large birds?

[He tilts his head, shifting--the parrot squawks before steadying itself from the movement.]

Any advice would be appreciated.

[He hesitates a moment more--it's his duty to look after this parrot, right? If...aniki is gone, as it seems to be.

And then a flap of large wings--the bird is rather too large to sit comfortable on Minato's small frame--and he fumbles with the SFC as a result--]


Ah--

[And the feed clicks off.

Oops?]

[... Isn't that—]

Have you tried looking for books in the library...?

Moto..chika?

*Selphie seems a little dismayed, but then she turns that into a smile - she can keep herself together for Minato*

Large birds? You know I do! I'll be round right away, okay?

[There is a young boy with a cat on his hat, staring into the screen.]

What part are you having trouble with?

[Aww, that's somehow rather cute to Red! The sight of Minato and a cute bird sitting on him. But something in Minato's glance seems off today... Hopefully, that was just Red's imagination.]

I know how to... If you want, I can come over and help you, Minato. If that's okay!

Well, if you need any help, let me know! I've never taken care of an animal before, but it can't be any worse than looking after kids, can it?

[He grins, because alsdkajdas—]

Eureka arrived!

He's taken, don't worry.

[It's not stranger than a bird on your shoulder. :| ]

No, but I've dealt with some difficult animals before.

[Tiny kitty yaaaaaawn. He reaches up and takes his hat off, letting the kitten cuddle in it.]

Why did you pick one up if you don't know how to take care of it?

[He stares for a bit before he responds. Minato seems to be busy with handling the bird (whom he recognizes), with the feed having abruptly cut off and all, but Masamune knows he'll get back to him soon enough.]

The Demon of the West Sea's bird, huh?

[identity profile] pristinestar.livejournal.com 2011-05-31 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
I wasn't sure if Pokemon nurturing is the same as normal animal care... But I started to help out the pet shop and the farms here some time ago. They're just the same, so I was able to handle them okay!

I'm sure that I can help you with your friend, Minato. [... L-lol. Aww, Minato. That looked like it hurt, but it made Red laugh a bit.] ... He likes you.

how about we have some nice CR for once :|a

What a beautiful parrot! He seems quite fond of you.

[Cat's don't go on your head?]

Oh. Um... there's some books in one of the pet stores I've been looking at. Do you know what kind of bird it is?

I can still troll you with her. /don't tempt me./

[can't help but laugh a bit.]

I have a large bird myself. I would first suggest setting him down somewhere where he would be more comfortable.

Does he have a stand he could perch on, or a cage to live in?

[But what if your hat is the perfect size for a kitten bed?]

It's the one on Main Street. Maybe if you bring him in, the owner will be able to help you find the right book?

[The kitten myaas in her sleep quietly, and Tsukasa looks down, stroking her head gently.

it's on.

Yes, her name is Philomena. Unfortunately she's not here with me now. I'm sure she would have loved flying under the ocean.

He does! He wouldn't stay with you and behave if he didn't like you. And I'll be with you soon, then!

[Though...]

... Minato? Are you okay? [It keeps bothering Red. He wants to check up on him.]
