23rd Transformation [BACKDATE to September 17th | video/action for travel party]
[It's sunset when the video feed comes on, so there's enough light left to see Envy holding this up to the camera with a grin.]
Almost forgot, but that's two. I grabbed it before we left. It was too easy, Chimera crushed those ghosts.
[Behind Envy stretch the flat farmlands of the road to Olivine. The group's made camp for the night near a field of tall, fenced in grass that looks like some sort of pasture. Of course, any tall grass in Johto is also the perfect place for there to be a ton of wild Pokemon. And since his back is to the grass, he doesn't see the Murkrow sneaking up behind him, its red eyes focused on his open bag. And the shiny gold chain that's peeking out and glinting in the last of the sunlight.]
Anyway, we should be almost there. You've got to have beaten us by now Tulio--
KROW!
[The Murkrow had finally gotten close enough to dive at the bag and come away carrying the gold chain with it, startling Envy enough that he doesn't quite manage to catch it before it's already flapping away into the field. He saw what was taken. And he while there is an oddly genuine upset note to his expression, mostly he looks furious.]
You can't have that! Give it back!
[And off he goes, just taking off running after the thieving Pokemon. Wow, that necklace must be important to him judging by how fast he's going. Good thing he's wearing real shoes and pants for traveling, and won't be sprinting through a field in a miniskirt. As he enters the grass, he seems to realize that he's still carrying the 'Gear, and just tosses it back over his shoulder, where it cuts out as it hits the ground.]
((ooc: Badge is mod-approved! Video responses will be delayed until he gets back to the camp after catching the Murkrow!))

[Envy doesn't even want to think about going through these fields in the snow, and groans.] I'd take snow in that forest over going through it out here any time. At least in the forest there was some cover.
What's this Olivine place like, anyway? All I know is that it's got a beach.
[video]
[>:c everything was easier in Spain. No snow during the Warm Middle Ages, ha.]
No, it's got a harbour. Really big one, too. --but yeah, there's a beach outside the place. Tons of little annoying crabs all over it, but it's not too bad. You should ask Miguel instead of me, he'd give you all the glorious details.
[video]
Beach, harbor, close enough. It's next to the ocean, so at least there's something interesting about it. [Amestris is landlocked can you tell. And yeah Goldenrod had been next to the ocean too, but that was a little different and it had been the middle of winter. Before that, Envy'd only been anywhere near an ocean once in his life, centuries ago.]
[video]
[Spain was most certainly NOT landlocked. Or, yeah, well - but Tulio and Miguel had hung out along the costline lately, so Tulio can't say he finds it all that amazing.]
[video]
[He shrugs.] So, they're interesting.
