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.]}

[...weird, that response had sounded strangely doubled. Envy wonders if there's something wrong with his 'Gear speakers.]

What? Ha, no, if I was going to do that I'd tell you to--

[He's so busy watching the screen as he walks that he doesn't notice when he rounds the corner almost directly in front of Wrath and the determined Trubbish.]

[Instant karma's gonna get you, Envy.]

[ACTION]

[garbagechild]

<sub>[You walked right into this one, Envy.]

[Literally.]

[UNLIKE WITH THE AL COLLISION, Wrath actually spots Envy in time to take some measure of evasive action. It's too late to change direction, though... so that leaves him only one real option.]

[What happens next is the sort of combination of spontaneous events that can really only be appreciated in slow motion.]

[Wrath dives forward, aiming to scramble between Envy's legs and escape on the other side, and at the exact same instant, the Trubbish gathers all its stumpy, physics-defying strength and leaps.]

[But since the trash-covered child has suddenly ceased being directly in the path of the jump... it is pretty much flying directly into Envy's face.]







[And also Envy is not really tall enough that even a little rugrat like Wrath can really get under his feet without getting tripped on, so yeah, enjoy that too.]</sub>

[ACTION]

[exeggutorhead]

[OH GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING.]

[Envy looks down to try and not trip over Wrath, and then looks up just in time for the Trubbish to crash into his face. And you know, he's got pretty good balance. But NOBODY has balance THAT good.]

[He stumbles back and trips right over Wrath at the same time, and then he's just FALLING backwards, one arm trying to get the living sack of trash off his face and the other engaged in futile pinwheeling for balance.]

[ACTION]

[garbagechild]

<sub>[What a time to be alive.]

[Wrath is quick, but he doesn't make it out from underneath the older ex-homunculus before getting knocked flat on his belly to the sidewalk with Envy on top of him. A strangled wheeze ensues, because even though Envy's not exactly heavy, he landed JUST RIGHT to knock the wind out of Wrath.]

[Gasping, he kicks his legs frantically. One of the shoes has tattered, undone shoelaces that probably add insult to injury by whapping Envy. Fortunately not in the face though. Trubbish has got that covered.]

[It wraps its goopy arms around Envy's head and clings for dear life.]</sub>

[ACTION]

[exeggutorhead]

[This is the worst. THE WORST.

[There's a lot of muffled angry shouting coming from Envy as he tries to pry the living garbage bag off of his face. It mostly sounds like death threats.]

[But he does roll off of Wrath to get away from the kicking!]

[ACTION]

[garbagechild]

<sub>[It definitely SOUNDS like death threats, but it's kind of hard to TELL, given that he's screaming them directly into a squishy something-like-plastic bag of moist, goopy garbage.]

[Wrath, though?]

[For Wrath, this couldn't be a BETTER turn of events.]

[With his pursuer successfully foisted off on his ex-teammate, he's home free!]

[Scrambling to his feet and swiping a hand across his chin, where being slammed into the sidewalk had opened a small scrape, Wrath makes like a tree and RUNS.]</sub>

[ACTION]

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy's just going to do his best to pry the Trubbish off of his head and push it away, still screaming in disgusted outrage.]

[Now he's just hoping it'll still be after Wrath and will let go on its own.]
