This is getting ridiculous.
[Well that certainly sounds like Archer, though he's not on screen. The background appears to be a very boring room in what looks like a hotel, with a window showing that it is indeed still raining dogs. Apparently it was fine while it was raining cats, but Archer has finally lost his suspension of disbelief at the dogs.]
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I was willing to write the sharks off as a freak storm, but this? It's been two days of this now. How long is it going to rain animals?
[The camera turns then to focus on two Espurrs sitting on the hotel bed. They look as traumatized as any normal Espurr, but they're sitting upright and clutching each other's paws for dear life.]
I have another question. Has anyone ever had a Pokémon that has simply refused to do anything without being accompanied by a partner?
[Archer moves into the shot, proving that he's not actually filming this. He reaches out and scoops up the Espurr on the left, pulling it away from the second one. Immediately both the cats start wailing. It's very loud and the both of them immediately attempt to reunite, the one on the bed clawing at Archer's uniform and the one in his arms squirming frantically. Archer sighs and drops the cat on the bed and the two quickly join hands again and go silent, staring up at Archer like he's committed the worst sin possible.]
I can't get them to do anything. I didn't even want two, but when I caught the first one the second one wouldn't stop following me and crying.
[He sounds annoyed, but it was really just kind of depressing.]
I've never had two Pokémon this dependent on each other. Has anyone else had experience dealing with something like this?

But that makes him pause and stare at the screen for a moment.]
...was he upset? When I died?
no subject
[Admittedly that was sort of a last minute decision once he found out about Tucker, and he's never made a mistake quite that awful. Assuming that Tucker was capable of such advanced transmutations was definitely not one of his brightest moments.]
We never talked about your death.
[It was just something that never came up.]

I'm sorry about what happened.
[Mostly because things would have gone a lot easier for him had he managed to get the chimeras on his side, but he's trying.]
Maybe some of them will show up here.
[He really hopes they don't.]
no subject
...as much as I care about them, it's best if none of them show up here.
I know you don't consider me a friend, but I don't make the distinction between "friend" and "ally." I'd rather not see you hurt.
no subject
Kimblee can handle himself.
[...Wait.]
Kimblee and I can handle ourselves. There's no need to worry about that.
no subject
Kimblee wouldn't get this sentiment expressed so congratulations!]
You probably could if you encountered them without their powers or weapons.
[He does, however, raise a brow at Archer needing to correct himself.]

[Hahahahahaha]
Well, if they do show up here, you'll work something out.
[And he'll avoid them!]
no subject
Maybe you'll get lucky and they'll be from the other world.

[He's never had this issue obviously, but it is fascinating.]

[They might not even be able to tell the difference at first.]

Apparently I don't.
[Except the other Greed probably doesn't suffer from crippling insecurities but details.]
