Open PMD: The Aijou Glitch

Khalos's ears twitched.

Glancing up, the old Pokémon saw a Noctowl, perching in the tree above him. Switching his cane to his right hand, Khalos rapped it against the tree to catch the owl's attention.

"Hello, young one. Is there something I can assist you with, or is it simply a coincidence that you have landed here?" the Sableye asked, leaning against his now-on-the-ground staff.
 
Eve looked from the Noctowl to the Sableye. "You idiot, isn't it obvious? He's just more aged than us." Was he really that dim, or had he meant to be rude?
 
"To answer your question, I use it for walking sometimes. But mostly it's for hitting things." Khalos turned to the other Noctowl, which he hadn't noticed before. "What an eloquent way to put, my dear. 'Aged'! I should use that word more..."

((Yes, Khalos is a blather-er))
 
Eloquent? "It was the only word I could think of that didn't sound degrading to me, I guess. How long have you been here?"
 
"Well, thank you for the politeness, but I've heard them all," said Khalos, his eye-gems twinkling. "And, for an answer, I've been here for what feels like forever. At least several months, I suppose. You?"
 
"A year, maybe? I don't bother to keep track. I like it here. I'm Everan," she added suddenly, "but most people insist on calling me Eve." She flew to a lower branch and looked up at the other Noctowl. "What about you up there? How long has your blunt irritability been bothering the Pokemon here?"
 
Zemhal rolled his eyes. Why, oh why did he perch near these two Pokemon? They were much too happy. Yet, something compelled him to answer.

"Little over a year," he said darkly. If only they would just go away.
 
"And your name?" inquired Eve. "Fun as it is calling you 'The Rude, To-The-Point Noctowl' inside my head, it would be simpler to have a name to associate you with."
 
Zemhal glared at the other Noctowl. Her attitude was increasingly irritating.

"Zemhal," he said, "I imagine yours is something along the lines of 'irritatingly happy filth.'"

((Being mean is so much fun! :D))
 
"If you had been listening, I said my name was Everan. And I am most certainly not 'irritatingly happy'!" She bristled and shuffled her wings. "I was merely making conversation with Khalos; I remember no time that I so much as smiled! If you had an attention span larger than a down feather you'd remember that I was quite annoyed with you! I think you're naturally biased, and delight in provoking others."

((Isn't it? ^^ Haha, I bet Zemhal thinks she's really old after that speech, with all the formality and somewhat obscure words.))

((xD I can so see them becoming rivals and hating each other and being mean to each other every time they meet, especially since they're on opposite 'teams'.))

Eve shut up. That had been the last thing she'd expected. What was Zemhal's problem?

Ugh. She needed a more fitting name for him. Something that embodied his horrible skill at riling up and being rude to other Pokemon. Nothing came to mind - she'd have to think about it.

She haughtily flew to the highest branch of the tree to get away from Zemhal, landing extra hard so that a large number of needles shook loose from nearby branches and fell in the direction of the two Pokemon below.
 
((Yes, definitely. And since they're different genders of the same species, they could hook up drink tea))

A great amount of needles landed on Zemhal's head. He grunted, and shook them off. She had landed above him.

"Now that you're up there, are you going to shut up?" he asked, with a small amount of hope.
 
((yesyesyes. Eventually, they should 'drink tea', I think. It would be funny. And fun to write, since half the time I love seeing the romance when it doesn't exist when I read fanfiction or write.))

"Only if you do, annoying one," she called back.

Perhaps it had ended badly because she had spoken so…formally. It hadn't really given the proper effect. Damn, I need to work on that; it just comes out. But - if she dared admit it - it had been almost…fun, trying to think of ways to degrade him, even if she had been too annoyed to think up anything good enough to work.
 
((Mmm, tea...))

Khalos inwardly smiled at the bickering betweeen the two Noctowl. Ah, young love...

The Sableye's equivelant of his stomach did an equivelant of growling, surprising Khalos. He had just eaten, and Sableye didn't eat all that often... Oh, well, maybe a small snack.

He reached into the bag he was carrying and pulled out a speck of a gem, like one a human would wear on a ring. Khalos held it up to the light for a moment, sniffed it, and popped it into his moth, grinding it to bits.
 
((xD I don't know if they really like each other at all at this point…xD Khalos makes me
laugh.))

Eve realized that there really was nothing else for her to think about. She needed something else to do, but she wasn't going near any other members of her species for a while. Grinning devilishly, she jumped off the brench with unneeded force, causing another shower of needles to fall. She then circled the nearby lake, looking for an activity to entertain her.
 
((Agreed. XD Would it be a bit too much to have Lance happen to come in right after Eve leaves?))
