[The feed begins with a quiet shot of an Espurr and Honedge... cuddling? That's probably the closest term for what's going on. The Espurr is staring straight into the camera as per usual, but it can be heard actually purring; rather loudly too.]

[This goes on for an almost uncomfortably long time before Nui speaks.]

Voyeux and L'Snippy Snip seem to be getting along well! That's good, they both unnerve the other Pokémon a bit, I think.

[Said without irony as the Honedge's sash tries to creep away. Regardless, Nui finally turns the camera to face herself, holding up a shiny new Hive Badge.]

I decided to face the gym leader while I was here. She certainly didn't present much of a challenge.

[Which is something of a lie, but like hell she'd actually admit to anything less than a complete sweep.]

Are the rest of them more skilled, or are they all this much talk?

[Not long after her initial broadcast, Nui sends out a short message to everyone in Team Rocket.]

Has anyone had any success actually using the swords as a sword? It gets VERY aggressive when I try, and that sash almost seems toxic on contact.

[Well that initial visual wasn't creepy as hell or anything. Rideaux's giving a strange at the screen before actually answering.]

I've tried holding mine with similar results. With a little training and discipline, I don't see why it won't yield eventually though.

[If you know what he means...]

[She's honestly kind of mystified why everyone seems so put off by the Pokémon's display, it looks downright cute to her.]

Oh foo, that's what I was afraid of.

[She CAN put in that kind of effort, but she'd rather not do so when it's her arm that's getting nommed on in the process.]

You'd think they'd be more used to it, looking like that.

I'm dumbfounded by it myself. It had to have been created for battle, so it's completely ridiculous for it to avoid being handled.

[This is assuming they were even created...but they're just possessed swords, right? ...Right?]

I'm impressed they even exist. This world has quite the aversion of bladed weapons. These are the first actual swords I've seen since I arrived.

I know, it's such a wonderful little loophole, isn't it?

[She'd sort of despaired of finding anything more effective than a pair of scissors here. Not that she couldn't do quite a lot of damage that way if she needed to, but it wasn't quite the same as something actually MADE for fighting.]

Maybe even nature knows how stupid this place's little 'no weapons' rule really is.
