big fan of goin to halloween parties where costumes are encouraged in casual clothes that kinda sorta have a theme and seein what people come up with. last year i wore a green hoodie an some khakis to one an like three people guessed i was a tree. one said gardenia
the other day i downloaded a poketch app that's supposed to be able to 'translate what your pokemon's sayin' (bold claim). i don't think it's made for pokemon like poly who don't made standard noises but accordin to it all he talks about is the weather an wantin poffins
[ it was hard to tell what time is was. they had a habit of ignoring their phone down there, and it wasn't like they could look outside. not to mention how poor their internal clock was. if they didn't know any better, they could've said that time itself had come to a standstill.
(just this neverending network of tunnels and caverns and itself, exempt from the passage of time. oh, how it would've loved that.)
it hummed to itself and walked on, tracing its gaze along the little yellow lights that lit its path. exhaustion stung its eyes, yet its body thrummed with energy. it could keep going. it would keep going. it would keep going until it couldn't, and then it would find something else just as fun to do. they had the time to spare. ...probably.
and so they did. they kept on strolling through those empty, peaceful tunnels, gems glittering in the soil, warm lamplight softly guiding them, far from the prying gazes of the outside world...
//got bored, so I came up with an ask game! The theme of it is memories. The recipient will share a memory that one of their muses has..given that they choose to partake in this. :3
Remember to send an ask to whomever you reblog it to!
❤️-A happy memory
💔-A heartbreaking memory
🗝️-A memory that helped to shape who they are today
The video starts with the camera pointed at a dirt floor. Some kind of upbeat stock music is playing in the background as words slide across the screen: 'base tour'.
The camera pans up to face a wall. There's the base's entrance, a hole carved in the dirt and rock, next to a green trash can- though it's rather hard to see. The whole scene is incredibly dim.
'the entrance' Some subtitles read. A gloved hand reaches out from behind the camera to gesture towards the trash can. 'the trash'.
The camera turns a little bit. To the right of the entrance, in a corner that's even darker, is a myriad of items. There's a life-size statue of a Shinx on some stout pedestal, several spheres of varying sizes, a strangely shaped rock with deep grooves etched into it, what looks to be a few plushies and some iron bars...this is noted as 'the hoard'.
The hand gestures to the statue. 'only statue thag i like'.
...
'*that', the subtitles amend a moment later.
The tour continues, pulling away from the corner to face the rest of the base. It all seems rather cramped; boxes and crates are strewn about here and there, pressed up against walls and shelves as if in attempt to make the place seem smaller than it actually is. You can't tell if there's even anything in some of them.
The camera moves to what looks to be a small 'living room'- a TV and bookshelf set in front of a few multicolored cushions. Notably, it looks like a Rolycoly is sleeping on one of them.
(In the reflection of the TV, you can make out the cameraperson- Bismuth, presumably- wearing a worn sweater and overalls, with a newsboy cap pulled low over their eyes. They notice their reflection and hurry to cover their face with the phone.)
'the tv (works)'. They point to the aforementioned device, then to the Rolycoly. 'poly'.
The camera moves on, behind the living room. A small alcove's been carved out with tables and more empty bookshelves. Here stands a mini fridge and a miniature sink, alongside a rather uncomfortable looking chair.
'the kitchen. fridge (doesn't work)'. The hand gives a thumbs down. 'tryin to get an actual one (not a toy one) but it's been p difficult'.
Finally, the camera leaves the kitchen and heads to the other corner, which appears to be a bedroom area. There's a remarkably soft looking bed pressed up against the wall with a myriad of plushies stacked on it, next to a PC and a malignant looking device with a glossy screen and strange flashing lights.
(It looks like there's a...tunnel(?) in-between the bed and the device, but the video doesn't focus on it at all. It might just be a trick of the light, or the awful camera quality.)
'bed', the subtitles declare, 'an this device that works to PISS ME OFF'.
The hand flips off the strange device.
'it makes strange noises at night. keeps me up. idk what it does. it just annoys me. ellie likes it though so i'm keeping it'.
There's a brief pause. The camera shudders, and in the strange device's reflection, you can see Bismuth stifling a yawn with its free hand.
'thats it. thanks for watching'.
The video abruptly cuts to black and ends a few seconds later.
//Here's the layout in-game*!
*With some editing to work around the 15 item limit lmao
ANYWAY. watch out. i've got a base tour headin your way....once my computer finishes uploadin the video....an once i remember to post it....yeah.....get ready.....
