Chapter 35; Video

[[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?

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

filtered video; Of course.

Always isn't an acceptable answer? I suppose I will have to offer you 'as soon as possible' then. Preferably today.

Yeah, alright. I'll be around in twenty.

Very good. I shall see you then. [[And the feed cuts off from her end, though you are welcome to continue bothering her if you'd like. She'll simply be picking out a few new skeins of yarn, a measuring tape, and then stopping by to purchase a few bubble teas.

Should you choose not to bother her, though, you'll find her in her hotel room, awaiting your arrival Dave.]]

[ Dave turns the 'Gear off, himself, and makes his meandering way back to the hotel, in no particular hurry. He eventually comes to lean on Rose's door and knock rhythmically. ]

[[Not only is he greeted with Rose, but that bubble tea he requested. Wonderful service, huh?]]

I appreciate you making time to see little ol' me on such short notice. I know it must be difficult what with all of the women lining up for your attention.

[ Simply the best. He takes the bubble tea with a toasting gesture and takes a sip. ]

A guy's gotta prioritize. If I can't make time for my ectotwin, what's my life coming to?

[[Only the best for a Strider.]]

It's reassuring to know I have become somewhat of a high-tier priority then.

[[Stepping out of the door, she gestures towards the living room.]]

Shall we then?

[ He follows her in, ambling. ]

Sure. Not that I have any fucking clue what I'm doing here, but somehow I'm sure you're about to open some metaphorical velvet curtains and enlighten the hell out of me.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-04 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
[[That metaphorical velvet curtain is likely the various knitting supplies scattered around the den area. Skeins of yarn are clumped together in corresponding colors here and there, knitting needles are splayed out on the table for easy access, there's a nearly finished project of some recognizable shape in green on the couch...]]

You could say that. I have a favor and a question for you, specifically, though enjoying your company is also not out of the question.

[ He scans the room briefly, keeping his ear on Rose's words while he tries to decide whether he should ask her to make him a fucking cocoon. Apparently, it gets really fucking cold here. ]

Enjoying my company was never a part of the question. If I'm here, you're enjoying it.

Really? Is that just me, or does that count towards everyone?

[[Picking up a measuring tape, she walks over to stand in front of Dave. Without a word, she moves to lift the arm of his that isn't in use holding the bubble tea up.]]

Hold this here please?

Everyone enjoys my company.

[[He's greeted with nothing but a thoughtful hum as she begins taking measurements. First the length and circumference of his arm which is written down before she moves on to the length of his torso.]]

You're not gonna make me a sweater with gay wizards or tentacles on it, are you?

[ It's less of an actual concern and more of an idle conversation piece as he watches her work. ]

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-05 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
As tempting as that is, I'm not quite that talented. A disappointment, I'm sure, but you'll have to settle for something a little simpler.

[[And now the width and circumference of his chest, waist and hips!]]

Damn. And here I had my hopes up and all.

My deepest and sincerest apologies. I will be sure to figure out something to make for you that is wizard and tentacle themed to make up for it. I promise.

[[That's quite alright. It's not as if she's any bigger. Though she's not going to pass this chance up to say something.]]

You should consider eating more once in a while.

[ He rolls his eyes behind the shades. ]

Bearing in mind that you're paying for it? Sure thing, sis.
