Chapter 35; Video

[tentacletrainer]

[[Good afternoon, Johto. Have you noticed how it has gotten a tad chillier as of late? I bet you have.

So has Rose, judging from the fact she's wearing her light jacket once more. Of course, the cold is not what she is here to discuss.

No, it's the rain she is interested about.]]

I have a few questions. I've done a little venturing of my own within the stores around Goldenrod - and naming said city might make these a bit of a shock - but I am having a bit of trouble finding a few things.

Tarps, being one of them. I would figure they would be in a weather-like aisle, would they not? I wouldn't know, I've never needed to shop for tarps. However, I feel they would likely be useful, as I'm sure it is going to begin raining soon. If Johto is anything like New York during the fall.

I'm also curious as to if there are any stores that sell Pokemon clothes. Not costumes, but clothes. I'm in the market for a raincoat or two. And while I can knit, it isn't as if yarn is waterproof.

Thank you.

[[Once that feed ends, another one is opened, this aimed to two people in particular: Dave and John.]]

Hello you two. I have a favor to ask of you both. Do you believe I could borrow you for the afternoon?

You know you don't really need to ask me that, right? The answer is never going to be anything other than yes.

I ask anyway out of the same courtesy you offer me, even when my replies will always be of course.

Fair enough. So what do you need? [As he says this, he begins pulling on and tying up his shoes.]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

Why do you need a tarp? Are you getting ready to leave or something?

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

I have been considering it. I would prefer for Goldenrod to remain a pleasant city in my mind that I would not mind revisiting, especially considering the vast amount of resources it offers, rather than one that brings me nothing but visions of a small, stranded boat desperately trying to reach the waters of the ocean, only to be held back by a continually rising mound of sand in front of it, much like Violet has now become.

Not only that, but now that the weather is not so horrendously arid, I believe I would enjoy the travel.

Of course, nothing is yet set in stone, but it would be ideal.

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can see that. It would be nice to be able to come back here to shop or something without absolutely hating the experience.

Once you do decide you'll let me know, right?

If Johto is anything like New York during the fall...?

Indeed. New York, at least where I come from, is quite rainy. Rainy in Autumn, rainy in Spring. We have bouts of snow in Winter and a month and a half or so of sun in the Summer. But it is mostly rain.

And judging by the chill that is descending upon us, I'm fairly certain we are about to receive at the very least a few days of rain.

Well, when it does rain here, it does tend to be very strong... Once, it was so bad, it created a flood...

I can clear my schedule if there's a bubble tea waiting for me.

[ Not that he wouldn't clear his schedule anyway, but why not get something out of it? ]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

I suppose I could pick a round up while I'm out and about. Even if you are also getting something out of this visit already.

Never hurts to bribe a little extra. When do you need me? Besides always, I mean.

I was able to find a good tent to use at the Goldenrod department store, but I'm not sure about plain tarps.

( video. )

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Mmm, we have a tent thanks to a trip a friend and I took a while back.

Though...I suppose I could always purchase another and re-purpose it, if need be. It's odd that they don't sell tarps.

( video. )

[usedrapidspin.livejournal.com]

It is. There must be somewhere that does, considering the large number of travelers and adventurers that pass through Johto...

[railsb4pails.livejournal.com]

Do really think they sell clothes fur our pokémon!?

[Video]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Well, I would hope so at the very least. They do sell costumes, so surely clothes couldn't be out of the question, right?

Rain, huh? Don't know about America, but about this time of year Tokyo doesn't get much rain at all.

[ Since you said New York, he's assuming you have a Tokyo as well. ]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Indeed, and that would be because you are quite a ways away from the states, wouldn't it? I don't know too much about geography, but the distance between the two would likely make for a bit of a different climate I would figure...Is it warmer, or simply possessing less precipitation?

[[Indeed she does!]]

[video]

[justicereigns]

Tarps. As in something to go over tents? If you're in Goldenrod there's a level on the department store that should have something. That's where I got my bigger backpack.

[video]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Or at least something that could be used to weatherproof a backpack. And hm. I must have been looking in the wrong areas then.

[[She's not very good at this 'shopping for survival' thing beyond food.]]

[hintcoinplz.livejournal.com]

Come to think of it, I should get a new raincoat too. I haven't seen any where I am though.

Those Pokemon costumes are neat though, aren't they?

[Video]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Oh no? Perhaps upon visiting you will be able to purchase a new one then. While I have yet to see any for Pokemon, there are certainly plenty for humans.

They really are. From dashing to adorable. Guile really wishes to own a few.
