ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Scarlette: Mmph. It's not fun, that's for sure. Amnesia for a year and a half sucks, not to mention the "trip" did this to me.

-She rolls up her sleeve up to where her prosthetic attaches to her stump.-

Scarlette: Nevermind the robot arm, that's a new addition.

Vermilion City

Luciana: "That sounds... traumatic, but hey, cool robot arm? I guess?"

She shrugs.

"That... that's rough. I don't really know what else to say."

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Scarlette: Hey, don't worry about it. My problem, not yours. And hey, cool robot arm. And I've been building up a repetoire of shitty arm puns that I've been throwing around for two years.

-She grins-

Vermilion PMC

Luciana: "Oh gods."

She thinks for a moment.

"Dare I ask how terrible they are?"

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Scarlette: -smirks- Depends on how bad a pun you can handle.

Vermilion PMC

Luciana: "Oh I already regret asking."

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

-Scarlette leans back, still grinning from ear to ear.-

Scarlette: All right, I'll hold back on them. Don't wanna reveal my hand that quickly anyway, I should give you some time to arm yourself against them.

Vermilion City

Luciana: "Okay the answer is 'absolutely,' evidently."

She quickly attempts to change the subject before more puns are spoken.

"How does one get a fancy robot arm, anyhow? As far as I know something like that isn't widely available."

"But I guess the J-team aren't most people."

-She holds up her prosthetic, smiling-

Scarlette: Just gotta know the right people. The person who made this one works at PEFE, her name's Diane. She's really nice, and learned how to make and integrate these sorts of prosthetics from her friend, Deziree, who's apparently like this super-ultra-genius engineer.

-Beat-

Scarlette: Also Diane's incredibly hot.

Vermilion City

Luciana: "Huh. And I shall take your word for it."

There's a brief pause.

"... Which is not to say I don't believe you I just have no way of actually confirming this and wow this isn't helping and I'm not sure why I started saying this so I'm just going to be quiet now because I'm bad at words."

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

-Scarlette giggles-

Scarlette: You're fine, you're fine. You're cute when you say words. Hell, you were cute before I'd heard a word out of your mouth, but what's relevant now is that you're saying words and it's cute.

Vermilion PMC

Luciana goes bright red, looking away to attempt (and miserably fail) to hide it.

"I... um... I..."

All are significantly abnormal in a normal world... All are significantly normal in an abnormal world.

Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.

-Scarlette tries her best to ignore her own glowing-red cheeks, grinning and taking another sip of her drink.-

(Aaaaaaaaaaaaa do i keep going do i let her say something what do i do lucius you never actually prepared me past this point i was wasnt expecting that shitty pickup line to work aaaaaaa)

Fortree Gym - Cont.

-Jessica inspects Winona's Pelipper as Cheshire darts away from the bird Pokémon, never quite getting hit. Jessica plugs her ears as the Pyroar unleashes a Hyper Voice.-

Jessica: "I'm finding you a Wild Charge TM later."

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

Vermilion PMC

Luciana: "W-well you're cute too."

Hraesvelgr: <Sarcastic: Congratulations, you spat it out.>

She dodges another phone swipe.

-And Scarlette's face lights up an appropriately scarlet hue. Nonetheless, she does an impressive job maintaining her composure, at least outwardly.-

Scarlette: Heh, thanks.

(HOLY SHIT AAAAAAAA)

-She finishes her cup-

Scarlette: So, you wanna find a time to do something together one of these days? I'm free, like... all the time.

Vermilion PMC

Luciana: "That... sounds nice. And so am I, I don't have a job or anything."

-any attempt to interact with Ever at this point will reveal that they are, in fact, a rather artfully constructed sculpture of trash-

Vermilion PC, outside

-Ever is leaning on a wall, texting-

Breeze: <So, you still don't know how to become a magical girl. Magical enby?>

Ever: Problem for another day.

Breeze: <I'm not sure it should be a problem for any day.>

Ever: I'm not taking life advice from someone who once accidentally raised a zombie horde.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Scarlette: Yeah, same. My last job was... well, it's not something I'm super proud to have worked for, so I left it and I've been out of a job since.

-She frowns-

Scarlette: I should probably find something soon.

-Mezzo shows up after a bit, still looking frazzled-

Mezzo: So you know the thing about Gym Leaders? They don't get that way by being easy to beat.

Do not fear power... fear those who wield it.

Vermilion Center, outside

Ever: Uh, yes, that is usually true.

...Did you challenge Lt. Surge?

Breeze: <You know, we should take the Gym challenge here.>

Ever: How about no?

Luciana: "... Wait you guys don't get paid for this? What about royalties from the (admittely godsawful) show? And merchandise?"

-Scarlette blinks.-

Scarlette: ...You know, I forgot that was a thing. Which, I guess, makes the answer "no, I don't". We should fuckin' change that.
