( The first image on the screen when it lights up with activity is the ever-gazing, wide eyes of a relatively expressionless Espurr. It's definitely unsettling. As the frame pans out, one can see Levi in the background—seated on a couch—and it becomes obvious that the aforementioned Espurr is the one who's not only turned on Levi's PokéGear, but is moving it as well.

A beeping from the device is what gets Levi's attention; Espurr is silent, something he's thankful for, although that only gives the Pokémon more unwarranted freedom. An impatient 'tch' is heard as Levi gets up from his spot and closes in on the frame to lift the device and take it into his own hands. His brow is furrowed, and he's about to shut off the feed before he realizes 'Well, this is as good an opportunity as any to take advantage of an audience.' ) Oi.

This one's fucked up. ( He gestures to the Espurr—still endlessly gazing, although its wide eyes have now focused on Levi, who'd stolen its toy. Who even does that? How do you know Espurr didn't have important shit to say?

Levi's expression, when he turns back to the camera, is a cross between a grimace and a sneer. ) It doesn't make any noise. It doesn't fucking blink. It just looks like this, all the time. Is this shit normal?

( After a second, Levi makes a sound like a sigh. ) But then it gets up to shit like this when I'm not looking. My other one doesn't do that. Is it bored? Am I not feeding it enough? Fuck.

( Narrowing his eyes a bit, Levi glances at the Espurr once more, then back at the camera as he holds his finger on the 'END' button. )

It's creepy as hell. ( Another 'tch' sound, then the feed shuts off. )

<sub>[So, guess what Bertolt wasn't expecting when he settled in with his Tyrantrum? Hearing that voice. Sure, Bertolt knew he should be lucky to find another person from his world but he didn't expect it to be him. For a minute or two all he does is stare until the Tyrantrum nudges his hands with its snout, and he finally shakes his head and looks down at the gear. Alright, Bert. Deep breath...

And turn the video function on.]</sub>

...T-They all have different personalities.

_{[Stay calm. Maybe he doesn't know about what he really is.]}

I'd cut it some slack if I were you.

[His own Espurr is sitting on his lap as he responds from a sofa in a Pokemon center somewhere, staring intently at the screen of the Gear as all Espurrs do.]

It's seen the future, and that future is the cosmic suffering of millions.

It has seen these things, but it cannot tell you anything that could lessen its burden. For to do so would be to plague you with something so great and terrible that to hear a single breath, a mere suggestion, of its screaming will toss you with leaden weights into a roiling sea of despair.

And so it stares. Waiting for something beautiful enough to make it forget.

video; omg i forgot we have Levi, but I've only adored snk for 2 weeks now...

They're all different. Maybe it wanted to have a staring contest with the network or something, who knows.

[Korra, you're not very helpful.]

.... Yeah, this is pretty par for the course regarding Espurr's. It probably just wanted attention but the usual kind of creepy staring forever didn't get anything, so this is about as much acting up as it wanted.

That's just my guess though.

[So many swears! But, she's uncannily good with Espurrs so...] U-Uhm...m-most Espurr are like that. Y-You have to be very patient with them..b-because they scare very easily....

[foolishwren]

Yeah, they're all like that.

Spooky.
