Who: Zapdos, anyone
What: Zapdos is on a dare of being quiet for a week.
Where: ANYWHERE
When: From Feb. 1 to Feb. 8
Warnings: Some swearing, some violence. IT'S ZAPDOS.

This was so stupid. So very stupid. Why did he even accept the challenge anyways? Now he was going to go by a week without any sort of shouting, yelling or any sort of loud noises. He knew he went by a week staying pretty quiet before, but that was because he was a ice keese and couldn't talk or see much. Well he did see some things, but it was so weird and awkward and made him a little nauseous.

But now... he was able to talk. It was habitual for him to talk LOUD. But the bet... Well he didn't have a specific thing he wanted at the moment, but it pissed him of so much that Green thought he couldn't do it. Well he'll show him... He just had a tiny confidence issue at the moment.

[OOC: OPEN LOG! Come bug Zapos and try to piss him off! Or just have a talk. He will be out and around places for the week, except probably classes. As the day passes by Zapdos will become more and more rude, if not getting louder. Who knows, he may not even make it to the last day! He definitely will not last the entire week. He is going to completely snap on the 6th, and then for the rest of the "week" (7th, 8th) he will be nonstop loud. Like literally 24-hours nonstop. People can give him warnings during those times, but he will not stop. 8)c ENJOY!]

Feb 6th

Vinnie was a creature of routine. Every morning, get up at the sun's dawning. Soak. With some allowances to morning classes, he'd follow the movement of sunlight until he was full for the day.

It just so happened that Zapdos was hanging out near one of his favourite sunning spots for that particular timeframe of the day. So here was a Venusaur, drinking some mysterious-looking smoothie. He was shirtless, too, as per sunbathing required - with all his tattoos and scars in full view.

He's trying to ignore you, thunderbutt, but it's hard when he wants to sit right where you're sitting now.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

What no. Why did eh have to run into this guy on this day. Did he really wake up from the wrong side of the bed??? Zapdos' brows were knit together into a frustrated look as he saw the first glimpse of Vinnie.

"FFffffuuuuuuck." His little pastime of having an enjoyable smoke was completely spoiled. This day was turning out so great.

"You Gayass, get the fuck off and go do your gay sunbathing somewhere else." Zapdos snapped. He was here first!!

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnie rolled his eyes. Yeah, real creative about calling a half-naked guy covered in flowers 'gay'. If anything, the cigarette in Zapdos's mouth was the real eyesore here - and he gave it the sideways glare it deserved.

"Whatever. Not my fault you're in the sun." He took a long sip of his smoothie. From close up, it looked like there were... bugs in there?

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

"Go on top of a building or somethin' then." Zapdos gave a frustrated sigh as he blew a puff of smoke out. Just anywhere out of his sight.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

"You go," was the Venusaur's response. "You can fly, can't you."

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

"There's stairs, dipshit. You can walk can't you?" Was the thunder bird's reply.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

"Tooooo late. I'm already here." Slurrrp. "You give me more hours've sun a day, I might feel more accommodatin' for your fat ass."

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

'You callin' me fat???" Zapdos shot a glare. "I ain't anywhere as fat as you, you stupid overgrown flower frog."

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnie actually snorted, sending an amused smirk in the bird's direction. "What, are you gonna call me warty next? Thanks for the compliment."

When you were a Venusaur, some insults just... weren't that insulting.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

What, his insult failed? Zapdos gave him a glare in response. The urge to punch that smirk off that guy's face. He made a fist. No, he shouldn't do it.

He gave a middle finger as he gave a twitching smile instead.

"You done already? Just get the fuck out of here already."

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnie shrugged off the gesture as though it were a gentle breeze. "You think I'm scared of some punk who throws around bad words? Cuz I'm the wrong guy for that."

Well, that certainly didn't sound like the Venusaur was going to leave. Really, he wasn't all that different back in his Ivysaur days - so the hell if he was gonna be intimidated by some electric asshole. Volgin was a lot scarier.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

Zapdos wasn't stupid enough to not know the basic type advantage in the world of pokemon. Zapos gave a glare with his eyes with some electric sparks coming out from them before transforming back into his Pokemon form. He stood on his ground as he continued to give him the clear.

NOW WHAT, HUH?! Zapdos gave a loud squawk.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnie was still seated, staring down the legendary bird with a stern glare and a straw in his mouth. Slurppp.

"I'm not scared of birds, either."

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

I'LL PLUCK YOUR STUPID LEAVES OFF!! Zapdos replied angrily as he gave his wings a few flaps, causing loud popping noises and sparks to shoot out, before flying up into the air. He gave a few more flaps before diving towards the Venusaur.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Oh no. Oh no that was the wrong thing to say to him, Zapdos. You might have not seen the look on his face from way up there in the sky, but Vinnie's eyes just went from peeved to full-out, absolute venom. The plastic smoothie cup scrunched under the sudden clench of his fists.

"YOU'RE WELCOME TO FUCKING TRY!"

A Flying Type attack was trouble, yes, but when it was so obvious to see it coming, the Venusaur was able to roll out of the way just before the Drill Peck struck. Being a smaller target in a human body was really handy.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

Oshi--Zapdos crashed into the bench, his beak going through the wooden board and digging into the ground as he broke the bench in half. Stupid piece of... He was beyond angry at the point, he didn't even bother to take a look around his surroundings as he flapped his wings furiously, causing sparks to appear. As soon as he had enough charged up, he let a large blast of electricity shoot out into all directions.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

That wasn't so easy to dodge. How could he, when electricity was being discharged everywhere? Vinnie had just been regaining his footing when the attack exploded outwards, seizing his muscles and sending pain shooting through his whole body.

If he still had his electric resistance in this human form, then it was kind of hard to tell right now. Zapdos may have had the satisfaction of hearing the Venusaur let out a scream as he hit the ground. Vinnie landed in a pile of snow, hurt and furious.

Fuck, it was cold. But... not as cold as Mt. Silver. Grabbing a fistful of snow, ignoring the numbing feeling in his fingers, Vinnie retaliated with a snowball aimed at Zapdos's ugly face.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

Discharging all that electricity was pretty satisfying for the thunder bird, and that scream made it even better. But when those snowballs were thrown at his beautiful, not ugly, dude face, the frustration came back and he gave another angry squawk at the human. They weren't hail or blizzard, it wasn't going to hurt him much.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Maybe it wasn't blizzard levels of power, but Vinnie had to make due with what he had. He took two more fistfuls of snow, hurling them at the bird in a bid to distract him from the fact that the shirtless Grass Type was getting back on his feet and about to rush the bird in a tackle to the ground.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

Oh curse those snowballs. With a loud squawk, he fell over onto the ground as he was tackled, his wings successfully pinned onto the floor from the other's weight. Lash's weight was light enough for him to fly decently in the air, but if it was anything heavier than that, it was like he had a metal ball attached to his feet.

He gave another round of Discharge as he continued to struggle, clawing at the other with his feet as he also tried to push him away.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnied went Pop! back into Venusaur form as soon as the bird was pinned to the ground, making that same electric attack dulled in comparison to the Pokemon's natural resistance and thick skin. Surprisingly he didn't actually get that much heavier... but that was the difference between 200 pounds and 220.

With an angry roar, Vinnie stomped down on Zapdos's head, forcing it into the snow and gravel.

"You think you're man enough to make that sorta threat? YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY?!" That was nothing short of fury in his voice, pent up from weeks of misery. "I wonder how it'd feel, losing a wing. Never being able to fly again... You stupid, stupid little shit."

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

The sudden weight gain made Zapdos give a loud, painful squawk. Whatever Vinnie said after that wasn't heard by the thunder bird, as he gave numerous surges of discharge in attempt to get the Venusaur off of him.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and as the last Discharge disappeared into the air, a thick bolt of lightning struck down to where the two was with a loud clash.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Even with his resistances, Thunder wasn't something to shrug off. The Venusaur cursed loudly as lightning hit them both, forcing himself to cling to consciousness for that hot burst of pain.

Vinnie collapsed from the strike - unfortunately, on top of Zapdos, bringing his full weight onto the smaller bird's body.

[yellow-binesi.livejournal.com]

Zapdos, on the other hand, was already unconscious by the time the Thunder hit Vinnie. Even if he got additional damage from the other's weight, he wouldn't know.

[punchtheflowers.livejournal.com]

Vinnie was down, but not out. One more attack would've been enough to knock him out, but... seemed like Zapdos wasn't up for it. Groaning as he got back onto his feet, the Venusaur tried to shake of that lingering staticky feeling as he looked down on his fainted opponent.

This was the douchebag Lash trained, wasn't it? Well, he needed a helluva lot more training, that was for sure. With a snort, Vinnie was about to just leave him there and get himself checked out at the Pokecentre. Something stopped him though. There was a nagging sense of guilt - how did you get into a fight again after that resolve to be less violent. Plus, he still owed Lash, for the oar and for sort of barfing on her.

The Venusaur wedged his head under the unconscious bird to get the legendary to rest between his neck and flower. It normally would've been a bit trickier without his vine whips, but it wasn't as though there were leaves to get scrunched up in the way now. With a bit of a slow limp, Vinnie dragged both of them to the nearest Pokemon Centre - even if it was with extreme reluctance.
