Chapter 31; Video-Eggs!; Filtered Texts

[tentacletrainer]

[[Good afteroon, Johto. What a lovely day it is, isn't it? Sunny, unbearably warm, perfect day to stay inside and...

Sell eggs, apparently.

Your 'gears are now showing the site of a small collection of eggs, and a very happy pair of parents sitting near by.]]

Salutations, everyone. We have come into possession of a handful of Buneary eggs, and would like to find them homes.

[[The camera turns towards the owner, Rose, as she smiles pleasantly and invitingly. You know you want one.]]

We being myself and John. The mother is a very pleasant, adoring and energetic Lopunny by the name of Casey. She simply loves everything and everyone, and very much enjoys hugging. However, she is also a good listener and decent at battle as well. The father is a more timid and shy Ampharos by the name of Halos. He is very mild natured, and tends to be a bit more laid back. However he is the sweetest thing, and while not the most talented battler on his own, follows instructions very well. Their offspring are sure to be good Pokemon.

[[And now a more knowing, almost sales-person like smile replaces the pleasant one.]]

Now, if all of my studying is correct - which I assure you, it is - this particular combination yeilds not only pleasant offspring, but talented ones as well. By that, I mean they are equipped with moves at birth. Those being Thunder Punch and Fire Punch. Neither of which Lopunnies are able to learn on their own.

[[Sitting back, she sets the gear down on the table in front of her, crossing her arms.]]

The price we've decided upon is 2,500P. Of course, negotiations are possible in some cases, though I make no promises. Thank you for your inte--

Rose? Are you sure I can't just...keep them all?

[[Very slowly, a hand raises to cover her face as she sighs. It's pretty easy to tell that they've probably been talking about this for a while.]]

No, John. You cannot keep them all.

But they're Casey's babies!

I realize that John. We cannot, however, afford to keep that many young Pokemon.

[[She reaches out to turn off the gear as he begins yet another retort.]]

Can't we keep just one?

...maybe one.

[Filtered to Sollux; From Rose]

Once we manage to sell these eggs, we will be ready to leave. I apologize for the wait, Sollux.

[Filtered to Dave; From John]

once we find homes for these eggs, rose and i are going back to violet city.
maybe with sollux and his friend watanuki, if they haven't already left.
hopefully we won't be there too long, rose and sollux need the badges.
and we want to meet up with feferi and vriska too.
do you want to go too?

[Filtered to Soul and Jade; From Rose]

I merely wished to let the two of you know that John and myself will be heading back to Violet with Sollux. Dave may be accompanying us as well. We are, as far as I am aware, defeating the gym there, as well as picking up Feferi and possibly Vriska.

Of course, we will be returning to Goldenrod once this is done, but do not wait up for us if you wish to venture further.

((OOC: Replies will be from either Rose or John, or both! All eggs have been claimed, via this post, however you are still welcome to comment and/or inquire about the eggs anyway, because these two both enjoy chit chat, and this likely won't be the last time these Pokemon have eggs.

Casey is a rabbit after all.))

[[Bunnies make lovely companions, and these ones are sure to be affectionate. Surely, surely, if you do not have a soft spot now, you will.]]

And I would be more than happy to provide. [[Go ahead. Try and haggle! Rose is willing to make adjustments. She's very understanding.]]

Where might you be currently, or arriving at soon?

I've just left New Bark Town, I think the next town is Cherrygrove?

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

[[Oh dear.]]

Cherrygrove would indeed be next, yes. You are a new arrival, then?

[jack-of-cups.livejournal.com]

I am, yes - I just arrived here two days ago.

[[I don't think Rose would be able to handle that much fluff and derp. Let's hope he reaches Violet in time to meet John.]]

Welcome to Johto then. Do you have plans for working upon arriving in Cherrygrove? These are awfully expensive for someone so new.

[Video]

[jack-of-cups.livejournal.com]

It looks like I will be - I should get the hang of it, anyway, so sooner is probably better.

While yes, that would be encouraged, I believe I will still offer you an egg at a different price. How does 1,000P sound?

[Video]

[jack-of-cups.livejournal.com]

Your graciousness is much appreciated. Ah, how do I the the funds to you?

[Video]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

You are most welcome. And what I normally do is have one of my Pokemon bring you the egg, and merely have her bring the funds back to me. I've heard of a digital means to do so, though I've yet to try that myself.

[jack-of-cups.livejournal.com]

That sounds simple enough. I'll be keeping an eye out for her, then? What sort is she?

[Video]

[usedtherapy.livejournal.com]

Her name is Tick, and she is a Noctowl. She'll have a pink scarf around her neck, to assist in spotting her better. She's very shy, so don't be surprised if you startle her at first, but don't worry either. She is also very friendly.

I'll be sure to keep a few treats for her, then.

Thank you again, milady.
