Two Ghosts
[There's a shock of dark brown hair visible at first- After a moment the camera travels down to reveal Norman looking into the gear. He offers an awkward half-smile.]
So, I guess I made it all the way to Violet City. Not alone, or anything, but- I'm still really surprised I did it. It's a lot harder than camping, and the weather was pretty gross, too.
I think we're going to stay here for a little while. I heard that the gym is pretty hard and I kind of want to try and get a badge.
Oh- That reminds me.
[Norman isn't usually one to show off or anything, but he's kind of proud of this, so he shuffles a bit shyly before he shifts the gear's camera to a Hoothoot.]
This is Hopkins. I caught him. Um, well, with help from Ellis. I don't think we would have found him if he hadn't run into that tree.
[There's a long ...sort of awkward pause where Norman doesn't know what else to say. He makes a few uncertain faces before he shrugs.]
That's all, I guess. Uh.
[And the feed ends.]
[Open for action in Violet City, as well. He's just going to be walking around with his Duskull out and about, exploring the city.]

Re: video;
Oh um, a Shedinja is ... [Hang on, he's going to get Hannibal out. It doesn't really look like a cannibal. It's actually kind of derp looking but hey. A ghost is a ghost!]
This is Hannibal.
And yeah, I met seven of them, kind of. They were cursed puritans.

[Color her impressed. Or, well, as impressed as you can be by an animate ghostly husk bug. Which in Parker's case is kind of a lot, as it turns out.]
You're really going for all the spooky ones, huh? He looks super creepy.

[He shrugs.]
Apparently there's some legend about Shedinja's stealing souls if you look into their back, but its kind of a hoax, that doesn't actually happen.

[She bends down for emphasis, and reappears with a nine-foot length of happy Seviper curling around her shoulders.]
Like Bitey, see?

[He looks with interest at the Seviper. Wait-]
You named it "Bitey"?
video;
[Parker, that is a HUGE SNAKE DRAPED ACROSS YOURSELF, where is your sense of self-preservation. Also, Bitey sure does have some huge fangs, yup. Big ol' red fangs, right there on display.]
That's how they kill you, with the fangs. They inject venom.

I know how poisonous snakes work.

I think so. Why else would they have to tell the difference between the two?
