beastofthesea | Second Song

[The past week had all sorts of weird things going on. Things that Lugia found confusing and hard to understand now that he was back to his normal self. Though he wouldn't remain his normal self for very long.

Thanks to the erratic shifts going on throughout Luceti, Lugia wakes up one day much younger and much smaller.

His journal is with him, and now that he's of a much smaller size, he can actually somewhat use it.

Thus the curious baby Pokemon flips it open, staring in wonder at all the voices coming from it. Somehow he manages to activate it and decides to talk to all the voices! He's still young and hasn't yet developed his telepathy skills, thus he's making the squealing noises that baby Lugias typically make. Which are then translated into words.]

HI! MY NAME IS LUGIA AND I'M A POKEMON!

[Lugia then eventually finds his way to town thanks to the rivers that flow through it.

About the size of a large dog, he can be seen walking around the center of the village. Peering curiously into windows, wandering through any open doors, or splashing around in the fountain.]

A-ah! It's not that I don't like water, it's just that I wasn't exactly expecting to be splashed like that! [There is no possible way she could be angry at that cute face, BUT AUGH, EVERYTHING IS SOAKING WET.

Lugia, never use your cute powers for evil.]

And, uh, I'm not exactly dressed for playing with water.

[As long as Team Rocket doesn't get him, his cute powers will never be for evil!]

Dressed? Why do you need to be dressed?

[He doesn't have to be dressed in water!]

Because it's...indecent if you're not? [Yeah, it's okay in some places, BUT STILL.]

[Lugia tilts his head curiously.]

What's indecent? Am I indecent?

U-uh. [How does one explain this sort of thing?] It's, um. [LUGIA YOU ARE TOO YOUNG?] Erm, it's when you do something that's, um, really, really, REALLY inappropriate! [Oh archmages...]

Like what?

[He blinks his wide innocent eyes at her.]

[Lugia please don't look at her like that.] Ah, like...um... [Oh archmages, WHAT DOES SHE DO IN THIS SORT OF SITUATION?] It's...really hard to explain!

Why?

[You might as well just spit it out, Karis. He's getting really curious now.]

It just- [Her face is turning red from a mixture of embarrassment and her own frustration of how she got herself into this mess.] It just is? I don't really know how to put it into words...

Then maybe you could show me?

[Lugia no.]

Why is your face red?

NOOOO NO NO NO NO, I CAN'T DO THAT! [BY THE ARCHMAGES, NO!

The questions have made it so now she's as red as a tomato.] Wait, my face is red!? [She didn't even notice.]

Why not?

[Have a sad puppy face now. He doesn't understand why you can't just tell him!]

[Lugia no Don't do that to her.] Because I can't show indecency, since...it's inappropriate... [We've come full circle.] Crap. How do I explain this.

[He's looking at you expectantly, Karis.]

Okay, so I'm going to use an example. [Screw it, she's giving up and will try to explain it. Hopefully he understands...] You don't wear clothes at all, right?

[Lugia's eyes light up. Okay. This should be good. And he nods at her question.]

So you don't, but I do, I have to. If I didn't wear clothes and I was walking out and about where people could see me, then that would be considered indecent. Understand? [Please understand...]

But why do you have to wear clothes? I don't have to.

[Sorry Karis, you're not getting off that easily.]

[AUGH, LUGIA.] Well, if I don't, people will freak out.

But why?

[Why. Karis? Why? WHY??]

B-b-because it's not acceptable! [She goes and covers her face. Wow, she's feeling the heat come off of it now, how long has her face been red for?]

Is it because it makes your face red?

[Karis separates her fingers enough to where she's peeking through them now.] I guess you could say that...

So why does your face turn red?

[That's so much easier to answer.] W-well, it can happen for a number of reasons really. [She won't say which one is occurring right now though.] Being embarrassed, ashamed, angry. [And other reasons, but Lugia doesn't need to know that.] Those are a few things that can cause someone's face to get red.
