Lilycove

Cleo grabs her cane and flashes Shun probably the most corporate smile one could muster.

Cleo: Bon! Now... back to the lesson.

She turns around and clears her throat.

Cleo: Now. My granduncle is a very intense person. He can pretty much smell insincerity, fear and deceit. So, not tripping over your words is crucial.

And from this excruciatingly long session, speaking your mind is totally out of the question.

Now, once again, introduce yourself Shun.

Shun sighs.

Shun: Very well.

His tone becomes as stiff and unchanging as his expression.

Shun: Hello. My name is Shun Hontou. I'm a de- I mean, I'm a dependable friend of your niece Cleo. May I see your records, please?

Vien Forest

-Zeal and Gui have landed here.-

To: Isaac

From: Zeal

We're in Almia now. Where should we meet?

-A reply comes in quickly.-

To: Zeal

From: Isaac

It'd help to know where in Almia you are. :P

We landed in Vien Forest.

Cool. I'm in Vientown.

What if we both just started walking toward one another? Meet halfway, walk the rest of the way back together? Let's do that, if we miss each other we can think of something else.

Okay, sure.

-Zeal turns to Gui.-

Zeal: ...Er, which way's Vientown?

-Gui points.-

Gui: That way.

Zeal: Right, thanks.

-They start following the main forest path in that direction. After a while, someone approaches them and waves.-

???: Yo!

Zeal: Hey!

-He waves back.-

Gui: So this is that friend who's been taking care of your mons?

Isaac: That's right.

-He holds out a hand.-

Isaac Lovell. Nice to meet you. I take it you're Gui?

-Gui shakes his hand.-

Gui: Yeah, that's right.

Isaac: So you're the one who flew him here? That was a lot quicker than I expected. I'd love to meet your team.

Gui: ~You didn't tell him I'm a Latias, then?~

Zeal: Nope. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have mentioned that we were flying here.

Gui: Um... they're not with me!

-She grins nervously.-

Isaac: ...They're not with you? But you just got here, didn't you?

Gui: ~You didn't think this through at all, did you?~

Zeal: Apparently not.

Gui: Oh, they're just... off... doing... flying-y things!

Isaac: ..."Flying-y things".

Gui: Yeah, you know, flying-y things! Like... well, flying!

~Zeal, this isn't working.~

Zeal: No. No it is not.

Gui: ~Did you think of any other excuses?~

Zeal: I didn't really plan anything. Didn't think I needed to.

Gui: ~Do we need to? You trust him enough to leave your mons with him.~

Zeal: Well, yeah, but he has no connection to the J-Team and I think it'd be safer to just keep it secret with him.

Gui: ~The secret's not holding up very well, though.~

Zeal: Well, maybe—

Isaac: The two of you have been staring at each other an awful long time. What's up?

Zeal: Nothing! Nothing's up!

-Isaac blinks.-

Isaac: You know... I'm starting to think it might be better not to ask.

Gui: Yeah, do that!

Zeal: Not asking would be nice, yes.

-Isaac glances back and forth between Zeal and Gui, who are both forcing grins.-

Isaac: ...Right. Well, come on, then.

Zeal: ...Well, that works.

Gui: ~Yeah...~

-And they start walking back toward Vientown.-

I'm done here.

SHORT - "It Might Be A Ghost"

Landlord: My house has ghosts in it.

Scientist Man: It's probably just ball lightning.

Ghosthunter Woman: I think it's a ghost.

Scientist Man: Why would you think that?

Ghosthunter Woman: Because of the Esperanto blood scrawlings that appeared on the wall in the past six seconds.

Ghost: Boo! I am a ghost!

Scientist Man: This destroys my epistemology!

Ghost: And now I will kill you to get revenge!

Ghosthunter Woman: For what?!

Ghost: Fifty years ago I was exploring this very house, when a ghost killed me!

Scientist Man: But... we aren't ghosts. Killing us would just perpetuate a cycle!

Ghosthunter Woman: And bring no closure!

Ghost: ...this destroys my epistemology!

Scientist Man: There, there, you're in good company.

Landlord: My epistemology is fine.

Ghosthunter Woman: Mine too.

Ghost: Actually electrons are made of ectoplasm, so technically I am ball lightning.

Ghosthunter Woman: Never mind.

Landlord: I'm still good.

AND NOW, OUR FEATURE POST

Aboard a yacht in Sootopolis City, possibly near Jacob...

The Silly Pidgey: -coos to herself as she counts stacks of illicitly-obtained cash, dry-cleaning any bills with pen scribbles or boogers on them-

Jacob: -Looking at the yatch and Pidgey- "...."

-Blinks-

-Massages his temples-

"I-"

"Okay I'm looking at a boat in the middle of a crater with a bird cleaning money."

"...."

"I smell an adventure that I'm unsure of whether or not I want to get wrapped up in."

"..."

"Oh well too late now."

-He leaps aboard the yacht to investigate-

Jacob: "...."

-Opens his mouth to speak and does something like this.

-He looks up-

"I just-"

"What. Are you doing. In the middle of a crater with now real open ports out. With a yacht?"


Veronica: -Is bumped into literally, causing her to spill all her books, papers, note pads, pens, and coffee all over the ground- "ACK"

-And then Rosso the Scizor leaps forward-

-And is promptly yanked back by Ashra the Bisharp-

"Oh goodness sorry!" -She scrambles around for her belongings-

"I... don't know. If we do?"

If that pun was intentional oh YES we do.


Veronica: "To be honest I wasn't either..."

-Beat-

"Wait I recognize you from somewhere."

-Thinks for a moment-

".... You wouldn't have happened to have beaten the Iron Maiden who randomly showed up from the dead a year ago? I think I remember seeing your face in Hall of Fame entries..."

-She smiles brightly- "Wow I don't know why I remember that!"

-Looks over the side of the yacht-

-Looks at the Pidgey- "You heard the... officer."


Veronica: "Okay good I'm not insane! Hey Sarah!" -Smiles-

"Veronica Valentine! Hoenn champion duelist and university mathematics teacher! Pleasure to meet you! Oh we probably have a few mutual acquaintances but enough about that." -Finishes gathering all her things and stands up-

Outside Sootopolis

A redheaded boy rests on the back of a bright blue alligator, staring up at the sheer white walls in front of him. The giant crater, he knows, houses on of the oldest cities in Hoenn, and also the most excluded. Almost nothing gets in, or out, without the help of pokemon or expensive equipment. It was perfect for what he wanted.

"You ready to head inside buddy?" He pats his Feraligatr on the back as he says this, pulling a small device out of his back and attaching it to his mouth, faint remnants of some red logo still on the front of it.

<You know it! Been a long time since I got to take you down with me! Especially in Hoenn waters! You're gonna love this Max.> Lockjaw was free of his usual bad humor, too caught up in the excitment of sharing his world with his trainer.

"Down we go." His voice comes out filtered and metallic, changed by the mask on his face, as the water pokemon he's holding onto dives into the ocean.

I can rave to this!
