Neither fat nor skinny, She's the horse's whinny

Since I use the titles of toons for her journal entires, I thought I'd keep a track of them in this post, and also give links if you want to watch them.

( Aren't you sweet... )

 [Today in Goldenrod, Minnie is cheerfully walking through the city as her Glameow, Blair, walks by her side. She turns on the Pokegear, video, no longer dressed in anything too fancy, just a simply dress and a simple smile.]

Hello everyone! I hope you're all doing well! Thank you to everyone who attended our knighting ceremony, I couldn't have asked it to go better! But all good things must come to an end, so I'll probably be returning to my home in Olivine when September ends. Danny, I hope you've been taking good care of the house?

Oh, how time does fly... I bet it'll be Halloween before you know it, and then Christmas, and then New Years... There are so many delightful holidays coming up. But I thought of adding one more to the mix, thanks to a dear friend. Since the knighting ceremony went so well... one day, in the months ahead, maybe we should have a princess day!

Wouldn't it be marvelous~! All us girls could wear beautiful dresses, and I could teach them all the fine points of being a princess! Proper dancing, etiquette, and then we can all trade stories about love and romance!

[She's getting a little too into it now, grabbing her skirt and twirling around - while Blair frantically meows and tries to avoid being stepped on.]

And then we can all hear about the famous princesses in fairy tales, like Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty...

((OOC: just so her friends in goldenrod and olivine know, she'll stay in goldenrod until the 30th, and should be back in Olivine by Oct 7th, unless someone wants her later/sooner/whatevs. this is more for keeping track and making sure i don't forget orz))

 [Video/Action for the Mouse Olivine Household! Minnie has turned on the gear on purpose, and is sporting the biggest smile she's ever worn since the hair change. The PokeGear is on her desk, as she's too excited to keep still.]

Hello everyone! I just have the most wonderful news to share! I had to tell all of my great friends once I woke up!

[She's in her Olivine bedroom, and two Pokemon - Cleo the Octillery and Satin the Kirlia - are on her bed, tossing a Mickey Mouse plush back and forth. Hayate may recognize it as the one he made for her long ago.]

A week ago, I got all my stolen Pokemon back! Now we're a whole family again! And just when I was ready to welcome them home... I went home!

[Now she catches the Mickey plush, swinging it around.]

I got to see Donald and Goofy... and Mickey! My beloved, sweet, handsome, darling Mickey... he came to my rescue! I could live off this new memory for years and years!

[She giggles and kisses the Mickey plush right on the nose.]

[Video/Action for those at the Olivine household! Backdated to this morning. Also, trying something new with my action brackets. Anyway!

Yensid the Medicham is up to his usual shenanigans, playing with the Pokegear as he sits on Minnie's bed. She yawns adorably, getting up, but her head can't be seen by the camera angle just yet.]

Mmm... good morning... Oh! Yensid, what have I told you about playing with my Pokegear? Naughty boy.

[She yawns again, gives him a tap on the head, and then heads for her vanity mirror. Though you still can't fully see her, you all know what she looks like by now - something like this. She's dressed in a cute frilly nightgown, and hasn't seen her reflection yet.]

Terribly sorry about that, everyone... but I hope your day is doing well. After all the scary business we've been enduring, it's nice to just have a calm, cool, morn....

[She abruptly stops. Yen Sid finally looks up from the screen, and his eyes widen. Then... Minnie begins to scream.]

My hair! My hair! What's happened to my hair?!

[Yensid holds up the Pokegear so everyone can see. Minnie's usual long locks of black are now bright white - snow white, you could say. Ah, the tragedy of future ice powers.]

Eeeeeeeeek!

[Minnie has purposely turned the Video on today, pausing in her Olivine chores to talk to her friends.]

Hello, everyone! I hope you're all having a magical day! My little home is in tip-top shape again, and it sounds like things are peaceful once more in the land of Johto and Kanto.

Now, the real reason why I'm calling is that thanks to my dear friends Ventus and Xion, I've realized even though I've almost been here for two years, I still haven't told people the real, detailed story of how my darling Mickey and I met! I thought it'd be a nice little story to share.

In my home world, the Disney Kingdom, I was the princess. I was expected to marry another member of royalty, or at least someone with a high status. I also had many knights to protect me and the kingdom... although back then, we called them musketeers. One day, I was nearly killed by a falling safe! I was so frightened that I demanded the Captain of the Musketeers, Pete, to specially assign me bodyguards until I could feel safe again.

So he brought me three musketeers to meet and approve of. First was Donald Duck, who would later became the royal mage. Then it was Goofy, who would later take Pete's place as Captain. Then... the shortest one between them, the most handsome man I'd ever seen in my life, he stepped forward... Our eyes locked, and... and...

[She dreamily sighs, leaning back so far it's really only a miracle she's still standing... And, uh... she appears to have drifted off. You may need to snap her back to reality. For those interested in Action, Minnie was supposed to be sweeping front porch of her home, but got so caught up in reminiscing that she's dancing with her broom, pretending it's her king. Walt the Charizard is napping on the sand nearby.]

[Video/Action for Olivine, especially the home that has definitely seen better days by this point. Minnie is quite busy at their hand-made house. With what, you may ask? Well, as typical, Yen Sid the Medicham is playing with the Pokegear, so when it flickers on, you see...



( just a spoonfull of sugar )

[Video - Minnie is in Ecruteak, holding up her gear as she walks around.]

Hello, everyone! This is a very important announcement, so I would like you all to pay attention. As some of you may not know... [She turns the gear towards the damaged theater.] ... the poor dears, the Kimono Girls, were recently attacked and their theater was ripped apart. The people behind it got away, but that doesn't mean we can't help out. With that in mind, I have a solution to help the girls!

[She whips the gear back to show her face.] In ten days, my friends and I are going to hold a play, right here in Ecruteak! We'll be performing the classic tale of Snow White live over everyone's Pokegears! It'll be a fundraiser, as we'll be asking for donations throughout the show, and all proceeds will go right to the Kimono Girls. But we can't do it alone! I'm asking for as many volunteers as we can get, to show our support for the girls!

I'll be more than happy to fly you in so you can lend a hand! And we're going to need actors and actresses to fill in the roles! The Magic Mirror, the Evil Queen, Prince Charming, The Huntsman, Snow White, and of course all seven darling little dwarfs! Oooh, this is going to be so much fun~!

((OOC: For further details, see here.))

[Now on the right day, s-sob With the Pokemon singing to encourage happiness, one might think someone already as cheerful as Minnie wouldn’t be affected. And you’d be wrong. She’s not only affected, but in fact due to her Disney nature, she is full on DRUNK on the good vibes the Pokemon are sending. Maybe she accepted it way too easily because some of her good friends have gone home. Maybe she was already in the lovey dovey mood because of the holidays. Or maybe Pokemon are just that strong and freaking weird. Anyway, what are the consequences?

Minnie is now going back and forth between Saffron and Goldenrod, cleaning up everyone’s homes and other buildings, and pretty much everything in her path. She doesn’t wait for an invitation, she outright invades! With a broom in her hand, she’s encouraging her Pokemon to help along – Noctowl, Glameow, Skorupi, Dragonite, and Medicham – and finally, perhaps worst of all, she’s singing rounds of ‘Spoonful of Sugar,’ and ‘Whistle While You Work’. This might get annoying after a while, but you try telling her that. She’s going in every building, in every room, on every path and street, cleaning up to her heart’s content.

So you can have Action in either city, no matter where you are, or you could watch the insanity via Video, since Yen Sid the Medicham still likes using the Pokegear to point out how weird his mistress is.]
