1st seed ❀ video/action for new bark town!

[suncrushed]

E-Excuse me...

[The voice speaking from the PokéGear is faint and hesitant, and the speaker's face perfectly demonstrates the nervousness laced within her voice. Her eyebrows are furrowed, and her eyes are quivering slightly; she honestly looks frightened out of her mind and a bit pale.]

I... I don't know who's listening, but for those who are, um...

[Juniper pauses, suddenly coughing into her fist, though the fit lasts for nothing more than a minute at the most. She reaches for the sunflower adorning her hat, breathing into it to calm herself down. When she's done, she looks rather sheepish about her recent spell, but it doesn't deter her from continuing to speak.]

My name is Juniper Woods. I just arrived here. I don't, ah, know where I am, or how I got here for that matter... I know that it's called New Bark Town, but...that doesn't really answer my question. I-If anyone could give me an explanation as to what is going on, then I... I would really appreciate it.

[The feed suddenly loses focus as Juniper kneels down, but it quickly returns, now settled on a small seed-like creature: a Sunkern. It looks relatively cheerful, beaming brightly at the camera. As Juniper speaks off-screen, she reaches out a hand to brush one of its leaves gently and almost distractedly. She's still confused as to what's going on, but she doesn't seem to be startled by the creature.]

I understand that...these creatures are known as Pokémon and that we're supposed to go on a journey of some sort with them, but... Um. Well, I-I don't know how to care for Pokémon. I've never...owned one before. This is all so strange...

[The last word of her sentence sounds choked, as if she's sobbing, but her expression doesn't seem to be tearful. Sunkern, concerned, seems to nudge Juniper's hand in an effort to calm her down. She flashes the Pokémon a grateful smile and returns to her feet, facing the camera towards her again.]

A-Ah, I... I'm sorry about that. But, um, like I said before, if...anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. O-Oh! One last thing... I was wondering if any of you have seen or heard of my friends...? Their names are Athena Cykes, Apollo Justice, Robin Newman, Hugh O'Conner, and Phoenix Wright. If you've seen them, could you please let them know that I'm here? ...T-Thank you.

If you wish to join the Breeding Centre or access most of this world's convenient services, yes. But you'll have to go through Cherrygrove and Violet on your way.

All right, thank you very much.

[...]

Oh! Um, what was your name again?

[paladinlost]

It's Cecil. Cecil Harvey, from the kingdom of Baron. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[suncrushed]

I-It's a pleasure to meet you too, Mr. Harvey!

[This girl is very formal.]

[But at least she's not saying 'Your Majesty'. He's learned to appreciate that.]

So, do you feel ready to discover what awaits you on route 29? To see for yourself the purple rats and lion cubs that can control electricity?

[suncrushed]

I... I think so.

[She gives a nod; despite the hesitance in her voice, it's determined.]

I'll keep everything you've said in mind, so...thank you.

You're welcome. I hope your stay will be a pleasant one, and that you and your Sunkern will get along well.

[A call of Fable fable clefable! rings out in the background. Yes, young Sunkern, get along with your trainer! She sounds very nice!]
