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?

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.]

You'll see upon arrival. Oh. And while you are at it, would you also bring Casey and Lestat? I will require their assistance, and therefor will need them for the same thing I am needing you for.

[He quirks an eyebrow at that but continues tying his second shoe nevertheless. What could she need all three of them for that's the same thing?]

Yeah, I can do that. I'm going to have to run by the pokécenter first though. Lestat's in the box. Where do you want me to meet you?

That's fine. I've still a few things I need to prepare, so take your time.

My room would be lovely.

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Alright, I will be there in ten minutes! Hopefully less, possibly but probably not more! [He hesitates for a moment, then quickly blows Rose a kiss and closes the pokégear.]

[Feel free to call him back and get the last word in, Rose. Meanwhile, he's going to dash out the door, down the stairs, and outside. Then aaaaaall the way over to the pokécenter. Then aaaaall the way back to the hotel, up the stairs once more and down the hall to your hotel room. Knock knock, Rose.]

[And, sure enough, it only took him about ten minutes!]

Action!

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
[[She'll let him be, and simply surprise him when he arrives.

And goodness, he wasn't kidding when he said ten minutes? Did you run, John? You really didn't have to! However, she wastes no time in opening the door.]]


Thank you for your assistance. I really appreciate it.

[[And you will too, if for nothing else other than the chaste kiss to the cheek you're getting.]]

Action-y action!

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Of course he ran. As fast as his short little legs would carry him. Which...isn't all that fast really but hey! He tried! Not everyone can have mad flash-stepping skills like Dave.]

[He giggles a little bit at the cheek kiss, and closes the door behind him once Casey has scampered in. Eeeeeee what's going on? 8D]


It's no problem! What did you need help with?

There is so much action here, you don't even know.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if you would come this way, I will show you.

[[She is going to lead him towards the den, where a various amount of different colored yarn is scattered about. All kept in neat little balls, of course, but there are quite a few of said balls. They seem to be grouped together, and only one of them is being used as of current. There is also a measuring tape on the table.]]

can't handle all this aaaaactiooooonnnn.

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[He follows after her, raising a brow at all the yarn. Jesus that is a lot of yarn, Rose.]

Uhh...I hope you don't need help with a knitting project. Because I will be of absolutely no use there, sorry.

It's hanging from the ceiling and bouncing off the walls.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
In a way, I do, however no need to worry. I will not be putting you up to the task of knitting anything yourself.

[[Picking up the aforementioned measuring tape, she motions for him to come closer.]]

Actually, I need to take a few measurements. Remove your jacket, please.

trying to escape out the windows but OH SNAP the windows are closed. silly action. hitting the glass

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Ahah, okay good. Because that wouldn't end well. [As requested, he slips out of his green overshirt and lays it over the arm of the couch.]

Measurements for wha-- Casey no! Don't touch those, please! [But daddy, this yarn stuff is so interesting! And so pink! She wants to play with it! 8<]

Poor action. Just doesn't get any. Of the outdoors, that is.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
It's quite alright. Don't pull on any of the string, okay Casey? You'll unravel it, and then it will be such a mess! If you do that, I will make you something out of it.

[[Not that she wasn't already planning to, but whatever.]]

Thank you again, John. Hold your arms out to your sides for me?

[Rosemommy will make something for her out of the pretty pinkness?! Oh goodness! Well Casey will most definitely sit still and not touch any of the pretty pink soft stuff. Look at how good she is being Rosemommy. So good!]

Uh... [He sticks his arms straight up and out, not unlike an heirplane airplane.] Like this?

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
[[You are such a good girl, Casey. She is so proud of you!]]

Just like that, yes. Now hold still. [[Humming a quiet tune, she goes to measuring. First his arms, which she writes down once done, then the length of his torso from neck to just below his hips.]]

iseeeverything

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
[She tries so very hard to be a good girl. So very hard. 8<]

[John, on the other hand, is also trying his best to stay absolutely still so that Rose can take his measurements for...whatever it is that she's doing. He has no idea.]

noshush

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[[And you never disappoint Rose, Casey.

Once she's done with those, she measures the width of his torso, as well as the circumference of his chest, waist, hips and arms. Once all of those are written down, she motions for Casey to come over!]]


You're free to put your arms down now.

[He barely manages to suppress a giggle when she measures his waist. That's a ticklish area, Rose, and you had better not exploit that fact at any point in the near or far-flung future.]

Is it alright if I sit down now? Or do you need me for something else still?

[When motioned for, Casey skitters over excitedly, bouncing slightly in front of Rose with barely-contained glee.]

;~;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Quite alright, yes. Now Casey, did you see what your daddy did just then? [[Yes John. She has taken to calling you her father.]] Could you do that for me?

/embraces lovingly

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, John's not even going to bother denying it. Casey is his little humminburr and he is her loving father and there is no point in trying to say otherwise. He sits down and watches curiously as Casey sticks her arms out with a little more enthusiasm than is needed or recommended.]

;u; /cling

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. Now hold very still, okay? [[And with that, she begins taking her measurements as well! Now, can you guess from this why she also needs Lestat, John?]]

/chews on your ear...............lovingly.

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
[She will be like a STATUE for you Rosemommy. She shall not move a single muscle!]

[And yes, John has a feeling he might know why she needs Lestat. Though that still doesn't answer why Rose is taking meas--oh wait.]


Are you...going to make sweaters?

paodif eeee /nibbles on your nose c8

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
I might be.

[[Good job, John. She may have to give you a cookie for guessing so well. And you are doing a wonderful job, Casey, and pretty soon she's letting you go sit down now!]]

Thank you, Casey. Now, Lestat?

this is completely silly.

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
[...Rose you had better not even be joking about that. So help him he will walk out of this room if you so much as offer him a cookie.]

[Pulling Lestat's pokéball off of his belt, he gives it a wary glance.]


Uh...okay. Head's up, he hasn't been out of the box in a while now. Sooooo... [So he has no idea what degree of bad mood Lestat will be in today. Casey, meanwhile, is going to scamper over to sit next to her daddy.]

It is. But you love it.

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-10-02 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
[[With that in mind, she glances over to her bag.]]

Guile? Would you please come here? We may need you around to pacify poor Lestat.

[[And, at the request, first a pair of purple ears poke out of the bag, followed by a yawning head and then the rest of an Espeon who was clearly napping. Streeetching a little, she trots over to the three of them and sits down, looking expectantly up at John.]]
