VIDEO / ACTION FOR CIANWOOD

[ Video clicks on to reveal a very frazzled Rarity, with unkempt hair, looking pleadingly at the camera. ]

All right, whoever is listening. I have done absolutely everything in my power to make the best of a difficult situation, but even I have my limits. So I'd like a good old fashioned group brainstorm, if you please. The situation could not be more dire.

[ She turns the camera around to reveal... a fish. Sitting in a tank. Not a particularly big fish, but... sweet Celestia, if this isn't one of the ugliest damn things you've ever seen.

The tank itself is your basic bowl shape, but it's got all manner of plants and tiny dwellings inside. Sitting next to the tank are some sopping wet miniature clothes that look like at least some decent effort have been put into them. ]

This little darling is in desperate need of a makeover, and... well, I'm afraid I'm at a bit of a loss. Has anypony got any ideas for how to make him look absolutely ravishing? Or... well, at least suitably impressive! ... For a fish.

[ OOC: Please do not reveal the nature of the Feebas's evolution to Rarity! ]

[ Woman, Rarity is the queen of overdramatization. You ain't seen nothing yet. ]

She's been picky for me, too. Perhaps there's something in a particular area of this world that they like. If we split our resources and search different towns and routes, we might just be able to find the answer!

*Imogen is dramatic for dramatic's sake. It would be fun to test who is more dramatic. ...Rarity would still win.*

Maybe! Most of my travels haven't been near the ocean, but I'll see how that helps. It would be easier if I could test the flavors of Pokefoods! But most stuff Pokemon eat isn't really human or pony-turned-human friendly. Which is a huuuuuuuge blockade on fine tuning.

Oh! Well… I suppose we'll have to make some sacrifices for our little dears! I'm near the sea now! I'll do some researching and get back to you, Ms. Moreno. Even if the taste testing has horrid results, it is simply of the utmost importance that Hans and your Feebas get the makeovers they deserve!

Tell me how that works out!

But, really, be careful with taste testing. Pokefood is often made from berries which have disastrous effects on non-pokes that eat them. Like, you'll be sick for a week if you try to eat any of it. Be very careful!

Talent used to taste test for me, but he'd rather just stick with the food that's good for him. He gets all sour at me otherwise.
