Fifteenth Flight. [video/action for Saffron City.]

[newberktown]

[Hey, Pokemon World. Did you miss vikings being derpy? Well, never fear! Here's Hiccup, grinning like a fool and looking way too excited as he backs up from where he's set his 'gear.]

Alright. So, everyone? Feel free to start calling me Bastian. [His smile somehow widens even more as he reaches down and lifts his newest team member, draping her over his shoulders and giving her a little scritch behind the fins.] I just got myself my very own luckdratini.

[The Dratini--an unusual purple-tinted pink--studies the 'gear with a twinkle in her eye. Well, really there's a twinkle everywhere else, too. Yep, like so many pokemon showing up on the network, this baby's a shiny.]

I'm going out to show Falkor the city, okay?

[Someone's been reading The Neverending Story lately...]

_{[... Oh, now THAT'S a name that catches Heather's attention.]}

... Bastian, huh? You a Neverending Story fan? I thought that was a little after your time.

_{[She's grinning, though-- being an author's kid, she wasn't allowed to grow up without reading The Neverending Story.]}

[PROUDEST MOM EVER RIGHT NOW, HI.]

Off to visit the antique bookstore, Bastian?

[The feed turns onto the Other Father who's just getting ready to speak- and then a large orange dragon decides it's going to jump in front of its trainer and inspect the camera, excited by the colour.]

Draaaa!

["You look fabulous!"

Snapdragon...]

[itsjustdust]

[Your Dratini has his attention.]

That is one of the cuter things I've seen of the baby hatchings everyone has been showing off. So, you're Bastian huh?

[usedswift]

[Cover your ears, because someone almost dropped her Gear in excitement before managing to turn video on and all but squeal.]

IT'S A DRAGON!!

[video]

[divinewind]

Oh! It looks something like a serpent, except much nicer.

[Don't mind Temeraire, he is always excited to see things that look familiar. Especially things that look familiar and are also dragons.]

Is that kind really lucky?

[islandshore]

Man, your dragon collection just keeps on growing.

['sup, Hiccup. Have an amused Riku over here.]

Still, that's one of the more impressive shinies I've seen so far, and you can't go wrong with the Dratini line.

Why Bastian?

_{[Brief flash of a smile as he watches the shimmer. Guess who never read The Neverending Story?]}
