Video ☈ 4

[It's been a while since Surge has made any broadcast. As a result, the communicator is none too happy. That buzzing sound all-too-familiar to most residents of Discedo can be heard as a the video turns on, showing its owner. He's sleeping rather calmly without a shirt on and even snoring a little. His trusted companions are sleeping peacefully next to him.]

ZZZZZAP--

[But instead of waking up and realizing what's going on, he just swats at the communicator lazily.]

Mhhh... Raichu, cut it out... I'll feed you [yaaaawn] when I... wake up.....

[Raichu cracks an eye open.] Chuuuu~? [And also goes back to sleep.]

[For a trainer of Electric-type Pokemon, the weak shock hardly means anything. So he just ignores it. Not as planned, scientists. Not as planned.]

[Oh goodness what is that creature it is so cute he stares forever.]

[thunderbadge]

[Surge rolls over and feels something cold pressing up against his cheek. That finally makes him wake up. And hey, it's his strange radio thing. After sitting up and rubbing his eyes, he blinks a few times and looks down at it.

...

...]

Oh. Hey, America!

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

[Of course. He sighs. Oh, the eternal struggle of trying to be patient will all of his brother's rude, ungrateful citizens.]

N-No, sir. I'm Canada. His brother.

[thunderbadge]

[The loud American is still fairly sleepy and didn't catch most of that. Something about a brother?]

Hey, why so quiet? You come down with laryngitis or something?

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

[Why does he always have to repeat himself. SIGH AMERICANS NEVER LISTEN.]

N-No, sir. This is how I talk, eh?

[thunderbadge]

[This time, he's got the communicator closer to his face and is listening more carefully. He heard you! It's an improvement!

...But he still thinks you're America.]

Since when?

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

[SOMEHOW HE EXPECTS THIS it isn't like it's new or anything, really.]

Since before I've arrived here.

[thunderbadge]

[Surge is just very confused.]

What about all the yelling you did back when those monsters were attacking, huh?

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

I don't yell to get my point across, eh?

[...]

I'm not America, sir.

[thunderbadge]

[staaaaares into the communicator]

But you look just like him!

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

...Of course I do, sir. We're brothers.

[thunderbadge]

[Brothers? Why does that sound familiar? After a few seconds, Surge finally remembers.]

Oh, that's right! America mentioned something about a Canadian brother... You must be Canada!

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

He mentioned me? Ahh, how nice of him..

[Actually, Canada's... curious. A bit surprised. But yeah.]

Yes, I am. It's nice to meet you. I'm assuming you're one of his citizens, Monsieur, eh?

[thunderbadge]

Sure am -- the name's Lieutenant Surge! Nice to meet ya!

[here, have a salute]

[stopblamingme.livejournal.com]

[Oh! A Lieutenant! Have a salute back]

Nice to meet you as well, sir!
