Chapter 32; Video/Action for Violet City

[[Today you're greeted with a rare sight. Not only is Rose wet and dressed in a rather cute Dratini themed bikini, but she's outside and wearing a rather smug grin.]]

Dave, I would just like to show you this little gem.

[[And here she holds the Violet City badge up to the camera.]]

I thought I would give you a good week or so to obtain it first, seeing as I was already a badge ahead of you, but this is getting ridiculous. I think I will change my goal of only obtaining useful badges. From here out, I will work towards all of them. We'll make this a competition, how's that sound? A friendly sibling rivalry.

Who can come to possess all eight badges first? Lalonde? Or Strider?

[[Chuckling, she tucks the badge back in her bag, straightening once more.]]

That said, I felt a celebration was in order. And, seeing as it is so warm out, what better way to celebrate than with a little summer party? John, Dave, you are both expected to attend, and I will not take no for an answer. You might want to dress water friendly.

Anyone else in the Violet area is perfectly welcome to come as well.

[[From here, the camera is turned, apparently to show of various attractions as she begins explaining everything.]]

We're equipped with Insufferable Prick, resident sprinkler system. The newest addition to my team, Haze, can offer plenty of cooler temperatures being an Ice Pokemon. Halos is more than willing to fetch you snacks or beverages if you'd like.

[[Back to Rose.]]

And of course your Pokemon are all quite welcome too. The more the merrier, right?

[[With a tiny wave, she shuts the feed off.]]

((OOC: Badge is mod approved!))

[Oh jeez. That is...that is more skin than he is used to seeing on Rose. So text for now, because he can't stop staring open mouthed and his face is rather reminiscent of a tomato.]

[[Text? Why the text, John? He's replied to with video, and a very sly smirk.]]

I suppose you had best purchase yourself something water friendly. Jeans take a while to dry, don't they? And why the text, hmm?

[identity profile] p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com 2011-08-07 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Congrats, Rose.

I'd come to your party but I don't know if I have anything water friendly to wear.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-07 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you very much, Sollux, and you're still welcome to come despite! We do, after all, possess food and drink. And despite Insufferable Prick's name, he won't get you wet if you don't want to.

Of course if you'd like to join in the water activities, the clothing store here actually has quite a selection of swimwear you could purchase.

[Gdi, Rose. Why'd you have to call him out on the text? And the video responses really aren't helping.]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-07 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes you really have to. You have no choice in the matter. And is it? Is there a particular reason why it's easier? After all, one would think speaking your mind would be far more simple than typing it out.

begrudging audio. happy now? :|

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-07 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Bluh. Fine, give me a few minutes to go buy something and then I'll be over. And...t-text is just easier, okay?

[He's quickly realizing that even audio was a mistake. She can't see his face, sure, but he can't keep the embarrassment out of his voice, either.]

Quite. c:

[[Smiling at the switch, she nods.]] Take your time. I'm sure I can muster up the patience to wait for you in a pair of swimtrunks.

[Vriska's slightly frowny. She kinda wants to go, but at the same time Rose will be there, and well, she might have to interact with her. Face-to-face even.]

What exactly is water friendly clothing?

Video;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-07 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Usually clothing made specifically for swimwear, such as bathing suits or bikinis for girls, swim trunks for boys. But really you are capable of getting wet in anything so long as you either have a dry outfit to change into, or don't mind sitting around waiting to dry off.

[[You're welcome to come, Vriska. This is a friendly get together after all~]]

Congrats on the badge there, Rose -- too bad I won't be there for the party.

[He'll be too busy bunking with Soujibro and the rest at the breeding centre; moving starts soon after all!]
eclectical: (jade: watch in interest.)

Congratulations, Rose!

That sounds like a lot of fun! I wish Soul and I could make it.

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you Soul, and that is a shame. We will simply have to throw a party upon our return, so that you and Jade may take part. After all, I will be gaining the badge there as well.

[[Exciting! Rose will be glad to help if she gets there soon enough.]]
Edited 2011-08-08 00:03 (UTC)

good. because that's all you're getting for now. :|

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
[And right here there's a tiny, embarrassed choking noise.] Well...don't hold your breath waiting for something spectacular. It's really not any different than me wearing a pair of shorts.

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you very much Jade. And I wish you could as well. It won't quite be the same without you!

As I said to Soul, we will just have to have another party once we reach Goldenrod once more to remedy this.

Until he arrives in person :3c

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
[[Making no comment at the noise, she simply chuckles.]] Because I often see you in shorts. Besides, the difference between shorts and swim trunks is that you are guaranteed to be wearing something with a Pokemon design on it.

[identity profile] soulcool.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Dude -- I'm sure we'd be up for a party any time; especially if it's late enough for food to be involved.

Get your badge here in the evening so we can cook up a big dinner, alright? I could even get Souji to help too, I bet.

[Probably not -- but the sentiment's definitely appreciated!]

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps one of those late night barbecues? That sounds like it would be quite enjoyable. I'll be sure to do just that.

[video]

[identity profile] soulcool.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Man...

A late night barbecue definitely sounds cool enough, right now. It'd be a great way to celebrate.

[And a good reason to eat a lot. *^*]

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
And later in the day would mean a bit of a cooler temperature as well as a gorgeous night sky to enjoy. It would be so nice...
eclectical: (jade: relax.)

[personal profile] eclectical 2011-08-08 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good to me!

:T

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
It's still not really all that different, pokémon designs or not. Hmm...I wonder if they will have any with Haunters on them...

[Because...you know, John needs more clothing with Haunters on them.]

[video]

[identity profile] soulcool.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously. I bet even Maka'd get out of the house for something like that; even though she'd still tote a book along.

Kinda sounds like something we'd do back home.

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Then it's a date. [[Pause. Oh wait, that reminds her...]]

Oh, perhaps not right upon my arrival, now that I'm thinking on it...that would be a little difficult. But soon after at least.

[video]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-08 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't blame her for bringing a book. It's a wonderful environment for reading in, after all.

...mmm, I can't say I've ever really experienced such an activity back at home.
