Pocket Pets!

[Frank_Stein]

I've taken the Tamagotchi idea and made a few modifications.

Introducing the PocketBuddy!

Features:
- The full emotional range of regular GuardBuddies (I kept the screen in the same place so that it can reuse the face sprites)
- It speaks to you from your bag or pocket!
- Two buttons for feeding and playing!
- Haven't interacted with it in a while? It'll beep at you to let you know it's still there and still cares!
- It reacts to things that you do! Having something to eat? It says "Bon appetit!" Holding something dangerous? "Be careful!" Dying? It asks passers-by for help! Dead? It mourns for you!
- It remembers your name, so if you do somehow get separated, it can tell people that you are its owner!

I will literally buy this every round and save a pocket for it. Having a cute Pocketbuddy to vouch for you would be wonderful.

EDIT: Also, having it chirp up and say stuff depending on your circumstances could have a lot of potential fun if admins decided to write it up like a regular Guardbuddy. They could secretly add triggers for it to talk and say stuff, like going to Telesci locations.

Oh another idea for the pocket buddies: Give them some randomized personalities. Things like surly, melancholic, skittish, peppy, etc.

They still love you and would say basically the same things, they just will have a bit of flavor to their dialogue.
