Chapter 56; Video; Private Video to Dave

[tentacletrainer]

[Filtered AWAY from John and Jane (just in case)]

[[Today the video shows a very modest cake. It has light blue icing with small, decorative flowers along the edge of it. On top it reads "Happy Birthday".]]

I'm not sure how many are aware of this, but today is the birthday of John Egbert and Jane Crocker. There was going to be a party, I'm sure some of you heard about it, but unfortunately Jane wouldn't be awake for it. I feel it should be postponed, so that she can participate in her own birthday.

That being said, however, a few well wishes sent their way would be appreciated.

[[That's where the public feed ends.]]

[Private to Dave]

Hey. [[The cake is no longer the star of the video, instead it's Rose.]] There are a few things I want to ask. One; Do you want to do something for John today? And two...mother's day is next month, you know.

What do we want to do about that? I want to make this...as best as I possibly can for her. Just...in case this is the only one she's ever here for...

I'm not exactly opposed to this idea either.

Perhaps I should have made this a plotting post, rather than just a mention of postponement. But I don't want to take the thunder from Jake...hm.

Pewter seems like a good location. It's small, but not so small it can't accept a party, and a lot of us are here already.

Eh... Forget Jake.

[ no, seriously. ]

Then let's just settle with Pewter. Now my next problem is what to do with all this spare time.

Karkat, that's not nice. [[She chuckles a little.]]

Well, you could do a little traveling still? Unless you want to wait for Jane as well. I'm mostly going to be studying the Pokemon surrounding this area when I'm not training. I may see if Brock would be up to a little sparring now and again...I don't know if Gym leaders are up for that, but it never hurts to ask right?

Your point?

I'm done with traveling for a while. I don't mind being stationary. Just give me shit to do. And if Brock doesn't spar with you, I will.

voice;

[tentacletrainer]

Well then, we won't travel! I certainly don't blame you for that feeling either. You could always come with me on my studying? I don't stray too far from town, just a little ways into the routes around it. And even if he does, I would still enjoy sparing with you.

I'll come along... Only if you bring a romance novel as well.
