[Guzma connects without thinking, but it's after the connection is established that he's hit with the reminder of everything that happened last month with Blue and oh GOD THIS IS A MISTAKE.]
[But it's too late, and if he ran now Blue would know why, and that'd make everything worse. So, he's gonna play it cool, act like none of that happened.]
Yo, Golisopod brought me an egg. A Pokémon egg, to be clear. There might be more out by the lake, I haven't checked.
[Yeah, this ain't so hard, keeping it chill. All casual.
NO. BIG. DEAL.]
So, keep an eye out, don't need no idiots who ain't seen a Pokémon egg before messin' with 'em or destroying 'em 'cos they don't know what it is.
[Maybe this is Guzma's way of asking for help? Probably.]
[For now, indeed. Pokémon are more important than... whatever this is going to be.]
Yes I'm sure he's a dude!
[Guzma's clearly insulted, how dare you!]
He's claiming it's one of his, so at this point I don't know for certain what's in it. Could be a wimpod, could be... whatever Pokémon he got up to no good with.
[Not that Blue can see it, but maybe Blue can feel the withering stare he's offering Golisopod right now. Golisopod doesn't mind though! He's more excited about the egg!]
Sheesh......... [The tut-tuting in Blue's tone is palpable. He ain't gonna tell Golisopod to keep it in his shell, but-- Guzma, you should know better!!]
[Blue will have to lecture him properly later.]
Isn't the most logical explanation one of Archie's Pokémon? --Ah, but does he have any female Pokémon.....? --I don't, so it wasn't any of mine! Besides, mine are better behaved than that.
[Blue.... seems to be thinking something in the space of that first 'joke', but whatever it is doesn't make it across the feed. To the second, he just huffs.]
Whatever! Golisopod knows I would never say anything bad about him. [And he didn't, technically, he just thought it.]
Uh, duh. The point is that the Toucannon and Ribombee can't frolick. You dummy.
[Just because he KNOWS doesn't mean he has to be GROSS about it!!]
So anyway, I'm gonna go look around and see if there's another egg. Really... Golisopod doesn't know...?
[More teasing. But he won't say anything, that'd hurt Golisopod's feelings and he's not interested in that, even if it'd mess with Blue.]
It ain't that they can't.
[He corrects. They just won't make anything for their efforts. Really just. Rubbing that shit home.]
Good. [No 'thanks' or nothing. Just an expected single word response. Well, until he answers the second part.] That's the only one Golisopod found as far as I know.
He seems real fucking coy about this whole thing, won't even give me an idea of who the mother is. The dick.
[Blue should be ashamed of his typism!! Don't be a ghost racist!]
No idea, he ain't ever been sneaky like this with me before. If he was acting more skiddish and less like a happy dolt about the whole thing, I might be more worried.
Y'think I don't know that? I'm trying, yo. He's just being stubborn.
[One could say he's even being adamant about keeping this secret.]

Date: 2019-07-01 10:23 pm (UTC)[It's almost combative, or it would feel so if it wasn't also so withheld. So it seems the both of them have decided to take the same high road.]
[For now.]

Date: 2019-07-01 10:25 pm (UTC)[At least his surprise is genuine. A lingering curiosity filters across as he ponders.]
[And then, the most obvious answer] --He... you're sure he's male, right? Some Pokémon are hard to tell....

Date: 2019-07-01 11:10 pm (UTC)[Not that he's implying that his bug and Blue's tree got freaky, but more so the hypocrisy is a little REDONK!]
Nah, he ain't got any who could breed with Golisopod. [A pause] Well, any that'd produce an egg, anyway.
[Yeah, he'll let that correct and the implied thought sink in.]

[Anyway, he wants to die now]

Date: 2019-07-01 11:48 pm (UTC)[What about not joking? Cuz now Guzma is going to do just that.]
What's the matter? Ain't no one ever told you about the Toucannon and the Ribombee? Are you really this much of a kid, yo?

Date: 2019-07-02 12:33 am (UTC)Whatever! Golisopod knows I would never say anything bad about him. [And he didn't, technically, he just thought it.]

Why is he being so sneaky about it? ....D’you think he’s afraid of us finding out or something? Does he realize people here might hurt the other ones?
...It’d really be better if you convince him to tell us....

Date: 2019-07-02 10:57 pm (UTC)Maybe I can try asking him... I wonder if he's told Exeggutor? You know, since he's....
[Eggy.....] I'll tell you if he knows anything about it, I guess.
WOw I thought I had responded to this AGES AGO
Date: 2019-07-16 06:00 pm (UTC)Yeah sure, do whatever. Don't hurt to try, but I also ain't about to hold my breath, neither.
Don't know what Golisopod is playing at with all this, but whatever, man. I'll figure it out one way or another.
