mingle - raining cats and dogs (?)

[starhuemods]

It was a regular day for farming and living and whatever people wanna do - clouds had built over the last few days, but other then a slight bit of rain, things were normal.

Until now.

It began with rain. Just regular rain. Until the rain seemed to shudder and become soft ice. It looked like a mix of rain and snow - and glimmered like diamonds. It wasn't cold, it was just... beautiful. What a strange event...

That is, until a few hours passed. The diamond dust falling from the sky wasn't too weird. Even if it was nearing the end of Summer, it was quite nice. What began next, though? It was even weirder.

Diamonds and other gems had begun to fall from the sky, though they seemed to impact people just like rain. Not painful at all. They were real, at that! Whatever was causing this, it was... well, weird. It wasn't just the people and the outsiders curious about this - Pokemon from the forests and beyond seemed to be coming out into the town. Oddly, they were mostly Zubat and Bidoof... but there's a lot of other Pokemon, curious about the gems! Some of them are even eating them. Please stop.

...though, people not distracted by the Pokemon might notice small apple-like rat creatures. Some of them even seem to be falling from the sky with some squeaking. 

The next day, things will be back to normal - any items not picked up will vanish, just as they appeared.

Dozens-!? That's incredible- are they all here? Can we meet them? [his tail's up to start, waving, but it slows a little when he notices that.] …but. What's bothering you about it?

[resetto]

We can! I'll need to introduce you - there's so many friends. And there's an electronic communication device that I was taught to use...

[ ...but she lets herself trail off. ] They're not what I should be seeking.

[aneyeonthepast]

I'd like that! Oh- yes, I think I ended up with one of those too- it's nice, isn't it? Very sleek.

[oh. he droops a little, nuzzling closer.] They're not… their home's not what we're looking for?

[resetto]

It's not. We need our own... but, time seems to be frozen while we are here. [ A beat. ] It's not-- it's not dangerous, I don't think.

But they are amazing! I-- can call anybody without needing to give them a Linkpearl!

[aneyeonthepast]

Of course. After all, it's better if it belongs to us- right? [he nods, tail swishing again.] That gives us an opportunity, right? To see what we can learn- what we'll be able to do!

Anyone? That's fantastic! Could you show me? [he could work it out- but it'll be nice like this!]

[resetto]

And... I don't wish to burden the ones who were born to this world. If too many of us came, wouldn't Shinryu come as well? [ oh, bolormaa. ]

Of course! I'm not a good teacher, but... [ out comes the jPad, but she flips it to camera mode. ] It can also preserve images so quickly...!! It's amazing! [ technology is amazing look at her wiggles ]

[aneyeonthepast]

I don't know- but I don't think I'd like to find out.

I don't mind. [he likes her showing him things! He tucks a little closer, looking at it.]. It is! Can you do more with them- ah, could you take one now? Then we can look at it! [such good wiggles, which he's sorta matching!]

[resetto]

Neither do I. I'm glad we agree...

[ Bolormaa then smirks, and there's a flash of light. Her tail swishing, she totally pressed the selfie button. ] There's one~!

[aneyeonthepast]

It wouldn't be good manners otherwise, would it?

Ah-! [He starts, and then grins.] Ah! It's perfect- a good first memento, don't you think?

[resetto]

It is! Even if you look a little shocked - look, look! [ And she goes over to camera mode. Yeah, she has a lot of photos. ] It can hold them... isn't it amazing?

[aneyeonthepast]

I didn't think it would be so quick! Oh- [he leans in, to try to see more.] It is! You've taken a lot since you've been here, huh?

[resetto]

...Of course. I need to share this, after all. With you, and Mr. Scaeva, and all who may desire that assistance.

[aneyeonthepast]

Some for fun, too, I hope. But that's good, though. [he shifts to lean on her, tail twitching.] …Mr. Scaeva? [he thought- maybe they knew each other more…?]

[resetto]

...He is not the one from our shard. It'd be rude if I assumed he was as friendly, would I not. It's similar to when people see me as Minfilia.

[aneyeonthepast]

Oh. There's- well I suppose that does make sense…. It's still strange. What would he think of us, then…?
