003. [Video/Action for Goldenrod, midday]

[garbagechild]

<sub>[The camera bouncing around like a bad found-footage movie seems to be like... A THING with this kid's posts, and this upload is no exception.]

[This time, Wrath has the 'Gear pointed at his face but held out in front of him at arm's length, showing the street winding away behind him as he runs. He's panting raggedly and he keeps looking over his shoulder, at... what seems to be a portly Trubbish, which is flopping its goopy arms and waddling VERY QUICKLY after him, eyes bugging out slightly with the effort it takes to keep up with Wrath.]

[Wrath does not look happy about his tagalong.]

[When his next glance backwards shows that the Pokemon is still following him, he yelps and puts on an extra burst of speed.]</sub>

Ah!

Aah!

Leave me alone!

_{[No explanation or lead-in is offered for WHY this small child is running away from a mobile bag of garbage, but the fact that his hair is full of candy wrappers and unidentified bits of trash might have something to do with it.]}

_{[Wrath stares up at Scar for a moment, eyes wide... and then points accusingly at the Trubbish.]}

He ate my lunch and now he wants to eat me.

[envy_the_sinners]

I doubt that he wants to eat you. Did you attack him?

[garbagechild]

No, he ate my lunch.

My whole lunch. Gone.

_{[He stares down at the hands that HAD ONCE HELD A LUNCH OF SOME KIND. :(]}

It all happened so fast.

[envy_the_sinners]

[Are all homunculi this melodramatic?]

I'll get you a new one.

[This is about as comforting as Scar can get. Amit is sauntering back, by now, and Scar stand from the bench.]

[garbagechild]

_{[oh YOU'RE ONE TO TALK, Sir What McFolly yes. Yes, they are.]}

A new lunch?

_{[... Then he pauses.]}

... Wait a minute.

You're friends with the traitor.

How do I know you're not trying to trick me?

[envy_the_sinners]

[It takes Scar a moment to decode what "friends with the traitor" could possibly mean.

Oh. Lust. His eyes narrow.]

I have no reason to trick you. Why would I have helped you just now, otherwise?

[garbagechild]

_{[When Scar's eyes narrow, he looks even more like he's gonna murder somebody than normal, so Wrath backs away a little bit, drawing his shoulders up with a mumble of--]}

.... I'unno...

[envy_the_sinners]

[Scar's lips tighten, which likely does NOTHING to help the intimidation factor, but he's growing frustrated with... well, the intimidation factor. It's like trying to coax a wild animal to safety, and the wild animal is able to read facial cues.

Scar isn't so great at facial cues, but he tries his damnedest to look less frightening.]

If you want a lunch, come with me, then. We can go to one of the smaller stands and get something.

[garbagechild]

_{[... WELL... Scar looks pretty scary. Kind of like someone who might eat children. Wrath wants lunch, but he doesn't want to end up being lunch! So, scuffing his heel on the ground and looking up at Scar a tad mistrustfully, he asks what he feels to be a very pertinent question.]}

Are you planning to cook and eat me?
