Come bother a Rival?
WHO: Nikolai and YOU!
WHERE: All over the place, Heropa 002.
WHEN: The day after this, until July 13th
WHAT: Nikolai's either: at home, or out and about, or feeding his pokemon.
WARNINGS: Will be updated as needed, but implied animal death, and a giant vampire-bat in two of the prompts.
1; In the house - Open to housemates and anyone that would have a reason to be there.
[If he's not outside away from the house, then he's inside, either watching TV, studying/reading, eating - or complaining about not being able to find X food thing from his world, though he's probably found plenty of substitutes- or various other things like hogging the couch or sorting though his new clothes or whatever.
Annoy him? Bother him? talk to him? Pester him? The choice is yours.]
2; Out and about - OPEN; all over the Porter Cities.
A)
[What's a better way to cure boredom - and get his mind off a few Things - than to go exploring. Naturally he's exploring everywhere he can, be it Heropa, or one of the other Porter Cities.
He thinks it'll take him days to just find his way around the places and find all the interesting things to do in this Dumb World, but he's not complaining. Part of being a travelling trainer is about seeing new places and all that jazz. Plus, it's something to do other than study and 'volunteer' at the stupid animal shelter, and things to look at he doesn't want to inflict violence upon.
Though some of the things he's finding truly are bizarre by his standards, and he is going to stare at them whenever he finds them.] Well, that's dumb. Why would they do something like that?
[There are probably many things he could say that about.]
B)
[Of course, exploring has another meaning, too. He's looking for pokemon - even going so far as to look in dumpsters- and he's not finding any.
It all adds up to very frustrated Nikolai.] Come on! Where are they?
3; Feeding his pokemon - OPEN; all over the Porter Cities.
A)
[Even in this world, he still has to feed them, and at least two of them are easy enough. One he can even go to the butcher's for and get animal blood - the real stuff. He typically visits around closing time, and typically feeds the golbat in an out of the way corner of a park.
Mostly because giant blood-sucking bat, and he knows not everyone is used to watching a golbat feed, even if it is from a container.] Hmph. Here you go. Drink up.
[The golbat is more than happy too, and Nikolai is more than happy to keep watch while the pokemon gorges itself on blood.]
B)
[Every otherish afternoon when he's not 'volunteering' at the animal shelter he was assigned to, or studying or whatever, he can be found somewhere where there's water; river, lake, bay, beach. Take your pick.
He has a giant crocodile to feed, and he's not shy about letting it hunt when possible. For its part, the croc just seems happy to be in the water - or basking in the sun for a bit while Nikolai keeps a watchful eye out. With no worthy trainers around, he supposes he can let the croc enjoy the sun for a time.]
C)
[It's much, much harder to feed a haunter, but not impossible and Niko's never been shy about what it eats. While most nights he just walks around one of the Porter Cities with the haunter a few feet away from him as it takes a bite out of the life-energy of random animals, every three or so nights, he can be found letting the ghost hunt an animal or two.
It's not a pleasant sight, what with the haunter either chasing the poor critter, or licking it so it won't stop shaking until it dies. Nikolai trails after his pokemon, bag in hand. Like, he's not going to waste the meat thank you very much.
It's useful, and he can feed it to his feraligatr later or something. At the same time, he's not going to allow the ghost to go after humans, and if it does start to do that, well - Nikolai's command is sharp and curt and directed at the ghost and he walks towards it.] Get back here.

[Just kidding. It's the giant fucking bat that he notices first.
[This isn't the first time he's seen Nikolai, of course. Most notably, he recalls an interaction involving Nikolai, one of their neighbors, and what appeared to be a gigantic shark in the pool outside his window. But, of course, after speaking briefly with a certain Blue Oak, D33 is fairly certain that what he'd seen wasn't a shark at all, but what one might call a "Pokémon".
[Seeing as this "bat" is unlike any animal he's ever seen, D33 theorizes that this, too, might be one of those creatures.
[But he just has to ask. Besides, you gotta talk to your roommates at some point, right?
[Well, no. You don't. Not necessarily. But he knows that he's bound to at least run into one of them at some point, so there's really no use in trying to hide from them entirely.]
Pardon me.
[He hovers in the doorway, more or less expressionless aside from some vague intrigue, and his voice flat, though perfectly polite.]
May I ask you something?
no subject
Which happens to be blood. That it's greedily sucking down out of a container.
Sometimes, it's just more feasible to lug the the blood home than it is to find a spot to feed his vampire bat.]
no subject
I don't suppose that would be a Pokémon that you have there?
no subject
no subject
[And by watching you out of his window, but he'll leave that part out for now.]
I'm afraid I've found them to be quite fascinating. Such creatures are not native to the world from whence I came.
no subject
[Niko, don't be rude. you have to live with this guy after all.] Hmph. Once its done feeding, you can have a look at it, I guess.
no subject
[Truly, he wouldn't. It's not as if his life was so much dull as it was repetitive. But he had certainly grown tired of it by the time he left.]
Is that...blood that it's drinking?
no subject
[Once the bat is done, it'll waddle over to the humans.]
no subject
[He won't ask where the blood came from.
[As for what to ask, D33 isn't entirely sure where to start. At the moment he's just sort of staring at the creature as it moves closer.]
Does it have a name? It is a pet of yours, no?
no subject
[Well, not yet.... but that's like, a while away. A really long while.
He looks almost offended at the question, before huffing. How many times is he going to have to explain this?] Hmph. No. It's battler in a sport in my world. It fights, and wins, against other pokemon.
no subject
I see.
[He recalls Blue saying something of a similar nature, but the way that he had watched him interact with his Arcanine seemed a bit friendlier than what this boy seems to be describing. Even so, D33 is no stranger to training others for battle, and he certainly didn't consider any of those below him to be anything other than pawns as well. He's in no position to judge.]
It is a sport, you say? You battle for the entertainment of others, then?
[For some reason he had been assuming that Pokémon were generally trained for protection more than anything. Apparently not.]
no subject
[Stronger than even his father.] It's just one of the strongest pokemon I've found so far.
no subject
[The Pokémon itself does seem rather imposing, though he must say that both the dog and the positively massive shark he witnessed in the pool the other day appear to be all the more so. If his roommate does intend to become the strongest Pokémon trainer in the world, it seems that, in D33's opinion, he must have a long way to go.
[But, then again, what does he know?]
There do appear to be quite a few trainers such as yourself around. Have you met them?
no subject
At the mention of other trainers, he huffs and crosses his arms after waving Golbat to go wait back by the container, which the bat does. Complete with wings wrapped around itself.]
Hmph. I've spoken to them. A bunch of weaklings that'll just serve as distractions.
no subject
The one I spoke to claimed to be one of the best trainers in his world. The best, in fact.
[Of course, judging by the claim's source, that could easily have been an exaggeration if not a flat-out lie. But D33 won't mention that part. He's curious to see what Nikolai has to say about the apparently famous (or perhaps infamous) "Blue Oak".]
He claims even to be a celebrity in his world. Perhaps you've heard of him.
A certain "Blue Oak"?
no subject
no subject
[That's D33's way of urging you to explain.]
no subject
[There's a hell of lot more to it, but he's not going to go on a rant.]
no subject
Lucky against Blue, you mean?
[Because according to you, both of them are quote unquote "weaklings".]
You don't seem to have a very high opinion of either of them.
no subject
Hmph. They're both weaklings and not worthy of anyone's time, and they need to stay out of my way. Bleeding hearts like them are just a distraction.
no subject
He ruined your life, you say? How is that?
no subject
[Niko, you make wonderful impressions. Not.
Either way, he's recalling his bat, and going to pick up that container.] Now move, before I make you.
no subject
Very well.
[And with that he turns for the bathroom door - that is what he came out here for in the first place. After a few minutes, however, he emerges again, ready to slink back into his room when he pauses and turns back to the face the boy.]
If I may offer you a word of advice...
[Nikolai might notice just the smallest hint of a smile on D33's face, but there's something quite unsettling about it - it's a cold sort of smile.
[A dangerous one.]
It would be wise not to threaten me.
[And with that he turns back toward the door and disappears into his room. Nikolai might have a couple of super-powered monsters on his side, sure. But everyone has to sleep sometime, and it's not as if D33 doesn't know where he lives.]
no subject
Meaning that one day, it may/will come back to bite him in the butt. But today is not that day.] Tch, yea yea.
[What could the weirdo hermit do, anyway? Whatever. Niko dismisses it from his mind - and returns to whatever he has to finish doing.]
