Bout 004 (Video/Action): Guess who's back, back again.

[usedgalacticpunt]

[In her Violet hotel room, Chie appears on the video feed, mouth open as if to speak. However, she notices something on her Pokégear screen, and her eyes go wide. Her expression fades from horror into fury, and then to resignation.]

... Someone please tell me this calendar doesn't say what I think it says.

[She sighs and hangs her head -- honestly, she already knows better. From the side of the screen, Bruce pats her on the shoulder sympathetically.]

Souji-kun, Yukiko, everybody? You mind... filling me in on the time I missed?


((Short and simple, getting her back into the game. She's coming back from a glitch, because if she'd been around during the time I was gone, she would have left Violet behind long ago to meet Yukiko. ANYWAY tl;dr, come pester the kung-fu girl.))

Seriously! [She gives in to temptation and flops backward onto her bed, holding the gear over her head for a second before bringing it to her side. Yosuke glances over, then slowly drapes himself over her stomach.] At least I can count on you and Souji-kun.

That's us, as reliable as it gets!

[ but it's obvious from the laugh in her voice that she mostly means Souji. ]

[herolegs]

Of course! Don't forget, you were the first person to help me figure this place out when I got here.

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

You won't remember this, but you were the first person to help me. I figured I should return the favor.

[video]

[herolegs]

Sounds fair to me. [Big ol' grin.] Not even Johto can get the Investigation Team down!

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

It can just get us lost. Seriously, it's been forever since we'll all been in one place.

[video]

[herolegs]

Boy, no kidding. Well, once I beat the gym, I'm gonna come join you guys in Goldenrod, so at least we'll be a little less spread out.

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

That'll be great! We'll totally have to hang out.

[video]

[herolegs]

Definitely! I think I still owe you a lunch. And we can meet each other's Pokémon, too!

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

It'll be good to see Yosuke again. Has he gotten any braver?

[video]

[herolegs]

[A split-second pause before she snickers.] I had to think about that for a second! He's been doing alright! Training's slow going, though, since all the wild Pokémon around here are so low-level.

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

There's a contest up here where you can catch some higher-level stuff. It could be good practice once it opens?

[video] I see what you did there. e_e

[herolegs]

Sounds perfect! Did they close it for the winter or something?

[video] She does this out of love

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Yeah... with the weather being crazy, I don't blame them.

[video] It's true what they say: love hurts.

[herolegs]

Seriously. Johto weather's about as crazy as Johto everything else.

I'd say... the food's normal, but I still don't know what their jerky's made out of.

[video]

[herolegs]

...

I-I never even thought of that. Is... Is it Pokémon?

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

... What if it's Miltank?

[video]

[herolegs]

Wow, that... really just seems wrong, somehow. Come to think of it, are there any animals here that aren't Pokémon?

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

Ummm...

... There's got to be. I mean, they serve fish...

[video]

[herolegs]

Really? But I've never seen anything in the rivers but Magikarp...

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

D'you think they import?

[video]

[herolegs]

Maybe... So does that mean there's a country out there somewhere with regular animals?

[video]

[restardom.livejournal.com]

I don't know... maybe I should have played the games when they came out.

[video]

[herolegs]

Haha, yeah. I played them a little bit, but I never got too far. I don't think they talked about this kinda thing, though.
