"Again, you're welcome. So how's your day been going? I see you got a new scarf."
off the shits
Sootopolis
Sarah: Yeah, Jason got me that. Lucius got me the pendant.
-She tilts her head slightly-
Sarah: ...Either of those names ring a bell?
That's just how it is on this bitch of an earth
Sootopolis
"Uh... Jason could turn into an Infernape, correct?"
off the shits
Sootopolis
Sarah: Yeah, he's the Infernape guy. As for Lucius... well, he's kind of a long story.

Sootopolis
"Would you mind too much sharing, or...?"
off the shits
Sootopolis
Sarah: Well, he, er... kinda ended up dying and coming back? Not really fond of the memories of what lead to that, but... actually, just forget I said that, all you really need to know is he's a close friend of mine. Really close friend. Yeah.

Sootopolis
o.o
"... Like, came back came back?"
off the shits
Sootopolis
-Sarah nods-
Sarah: Came back, came back. Uh... yeah. Totally normal guy except for that.
Joe and Munn's Room
Munn: "So, after that, it was like in Okami, right?"
"Huh? What's Okami, again?"
Munn: "That game where you play as the Arcanine, and you purify things and they turn from all evil and dark and twisted to pretty and flowery and beautiful?"
"Ah, not exactly. There weren't any flowers, for one thing, and we had to...
The Factory
Joseph: Touch. Every. Single. MACHINE?
Elizabeth: Yes. How else would you expect us to purify the factory?
Joseph: I dunno, I thought you'd have the weird magical thing where you'd transform into the pretty princess-
Elizabeth: Oh, I'm pretty? Thanks!
Joseph: -and just magic everything shiny and new! But you have to touch EVERYTHING?
Elizabeth: Oh, it won't be so bad. Once I take care of the factory, it'll spread to the rest of the city!
Joseph: And that would be all well and good if this were the size of a normal factory in a normal city, but have you looked at this place? I could fit five of my home town in here alone!
Elizabeth: It'll be fine.
-she doesn't seem to notice how worked up Joseph is getting, and rests her hand on a nearby pipe, rusted and worn. It glows with a warm light for a brief moment before the rust seems to vanish, like breath on a mirror-
Joseph: Well, one down and two million, nine hundred and twenty seven to go!
Ratty: Puppet, dope smack him, please?
-THWACK!-
Joseph: OW! That hurt!
Puppet: I'm made of wood. I don't know what the Rattata expected.
Ratty: -irritated sigh-
Another green world.
-Sootopolis, by Sarah and Daydre-
-suddenly, a green-haired girl appears!-
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!!!! And hi Daydre, long time no see!
That's just how it is on this bitch of an earth
Sootopolis
"Gah .. Oh, hi Rebecca."
off the shits
Sootopolis
-Sarah is caught off-guard by Rebecca, but she recovers quickly and waves-
Sarah: Hey, Rebecca!
-Sootopolis-
I got you a present!
-reaches into her bag, pulls out a badly wrapped present, and gives it to Sarah-
Sorry about the shitty wrapping job, but what's inside is the thing that really matters!
Sootopolis
Sarah: No worries, I've seen and done worse wrapping jobs.
-She opens the package-
That's just how it is on this bitch of an earth
Sootopolis
Daydre looks on, wondering what it is.
off the shits
-Sootopolis-
-inside the package is a bunch of gift cards, some bubble gum, a couple of tye-dyed sarashis, and a gold bracelet-
So, uh, I got you a bunch of stuff, and I tye-dyed the sarashis myself, and the the bracelet is like a friendshippy thing cause I have one too, and the gift cards are cause you can never have too many gift cards!
Sootopolis
-Sarah grins, and puts everything away where it's safe-
Sarah: Thanks~
-She yawns-
Sarah: Mmm... Kinda late. See you two later, I guess?
-Sootopolis-
You're welcome! And uh, I think I'm gonna head back to my hotel room for a bit. But maybe we can get birthday ice cream later, okay?
-to Daydre-
You're welcome to come get ice cream too if that's okay with Sarah.
Sootopolis
Sarah: Maybe... But I was going to see if Lucius wanted to go get some first since Maul dragged him away when I suggested it earlier, and I dunno if you all will be around when Maul lets him go. If you are, though, I'd love to!

Sootopolis
She checks her watch.
"Oh shoot, yeah.."
(To Rebecca) "I'd like that, sure."
(To Sarah) "Good night!"
She walks off.

-Sootopolis-
-to Daydre-
See you later!
-to Sarah-
Oh well, uh, text me or something when he gets back, I guess. Unless you just wanna hang with him. That's fine too. And, um, happy birthday again!
-hugs Sarah and runs away-
Sootopolis
-Sarah barely has time to react to Rebecca hugging her, much less returning the gesture, before she absconds.-
Sarah: ...Uh. Okay. See you.
-She wanders off back toward the Pokemon Center-
Sootopolis, Outside Sarah's Room
-A pair of boxes rest on the floor. One of them is covered in teal wrapping paper and tied with a tan ribbon. The other is eye-blistering pink. Both have cards on them.-
PS: It also acts as emergency radio beacon.
-Inside the tan-and-teal box is a single gold earring with a reddish-purple garnet gemstone set in the center. The metal seems to "echo" away from the stone, in a manner similar to a pebble dropping into a pond.-
-Inside the pink box is a set of a dozen different kinds of socks. Knee socks, ankle socks, thigh highs; striped, plain, polka-dotted; rainbow, plain white, and pink.-

???
-the pink socks are in fact from Selene, and not from a sprite some more paranoid people might consider-
-actually, where has Mew been lately?-
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?
Sootopolis
Sarah: Nope, I love chocolate! This looks really, really great, thank you!
