[The Solosis is sent flying back a few feet by the force of the headbutt, but doesn't appear any worse for wear. She comes charging back towards Bean, really planning to put all her might into this-
Venkman reaches out and plucks her out of the air. Camille blinks in surprise as she finds herself held, hands on either side of her cytoplasm. No fair!!! She tries to wriggle free, but Venkman puts her under his arm like he's carrying a beach ball. Resigned, she pouts and burbles to herself about how life is so unfair.
It's right about then that the something starts to dig its claws into Venkman's leg, and he glances down-]
... You didn't just get a goat, huh?
[Venkman reaches down and grabs the Meowth by the scruff of the neck, placing it on the bed where he can get a better look at it.]
[He looks from Ray to the Meowth, stunned, before kneeling down on the floor to look the cat in the eye. The Meowth takes a few steps closer to the edge of the bed, meowing again. Camille wriggles in Venkman's grasp, angry and indignant.]
You got me another cat?
[He sounds a little incredulous, but not at all upset about it.]
Yeah! I remember how excited you were for Tarancula and the idea of having a Pokémon that knows Pay Day, so I when I saw this little guy I thought you’d like them!
[...]
Do you like them?
[Normally he wouldn’t be self conscious about Venkman liking a gift from him but, well, Venkman was just yelling at him.]
[Camille goes flying at the impact, bouncing off the wall, the ceiling, and the floor in quick succession. Venkman doesn't appear to notice, too enamored with the cat.]
Gotta introduce this guy to Tarantula. And. Garfield.
[The softer, excited expression on his face immediately fades as Ray speaks up. It only continues to darken as he elaborates.]
... What did you do.
[He sounds. So disappointed.
Camille's momentum dies out after one last bounce against the wall, and she floats aimlessly for a few seconds, trying to regain her bearings. Then she uses Protect on herself and rams into Bean's head again.]
In my defense, it sounded funnier when I first picked the name.
[It's a hit! However, with the level difference it doesn't do a whole lot besides tick him off. Bean backs up and rams back up to Camille with all his strength.
[She likes it very much, because the Protect's shield is still up, so all Bean is going to get from it is a headache. Maybe. Goats probably don't get headaches from headbutting they're too used to it.
Camille's burbling starts to sound like laughter.]
Ray. Ray, you can't do this to me. How many Garfield-related Pokemon names are you guys gonna give me? Egon already tried naming Tarantula after Nermal and I shut him down, you didn't even give this guy a chance!
[He's not actually mad. Mostly. The Meowth purrs, completely unaware of what's going on but happy to be here.]
[Yeah, that Leech Life is too much for her. She's just a baby, after all, and it's super-effective. But if she's gonna be beat, she's gonna have the last laugh.
As soon as Camille realizes she's about to faint, she psychically screams in pain, the not-sound ringing in everyone's ears, before falling to the ground, completely exhausted. The attack didn't really hurt that badly, but she's counting on at least one of the two trainer's taking the bait.]
Jesus Christ- what'd your goat do to her?
[If she could move her mouth enough for it, the Solosis would be smirking.]

Yeah uh...
Actually they're a gift for you.
[The Meowth meows again at Venkman and attempts to bap him.
Who are you, stranger???]

[Venkman reels back a little.]
They're for me?

Of course I like them.
[The Solosis finally wriggles free and makes a beeline for Bean's face again.]
no subject
I'm glad! They should be really close to learning Pay Day too-
[Bean, who had been glaring at Camille, anticipates the attack and runs straight towards her, ready to hit the orb with all his strength.
God save them.]

[God, he still hates saying that name out loud.]
no subject
However, hearing Venkman mention Garfield makes him even more worried and he turns his attention entirely to him.]
Actually, Venkie, there's something I gotta tell you.
[Ray gives Venkman the most innocent look possible.]
They miiiiight only respond to the name "Nermal".
[Smiles.]

... So how about a nice RAZOR LEAF!]
Aww c'mon, Peter! I promise this is the last one. The next cat I give you will not have a Garfield name, really!
[A pause.]
I'd say you could name one of my Pokemon in the future, but I'm kind of scared what you would name one of my Pokemon.
no subject
[The Razor Leaf hits! The blades cut through her cytoplasm like paper, and she looks pretty weakened.
And then she uses Pain Split to even the odds.]
Good. You better be afraid. I've got fifteen years of dirt on you, Stantz.

[Bean shouts in pain. You jerk! That's just dirty!
... So how about a nice Leech Life.]
