Doug's House

*Doug gets a chuckle out of it, then tries to be reassuring* Just keep tryin' I suppose, I'm sure it'll come back to ya sooner or later.

*having been more successful than "Marjorie", Doug takes the first dish out to the diningroom for the guests* Enjoy!


Teller's Bar

*Jani sighs as Teller plops down the bowl of Kalos fries* We're in a bar, aren't we? I'm sure like halfof'em are plastered! *after munching on a couple fries, she adds* Aren't y'like, rich or something? I'm sure you could gettem to sing after passing a round, if yanno what I mean...

Current WHABP alts: Jani (Sarah) the Purrloin, Hudson the Togetic. Tilly/Lilly (Digletts) are being Put on a Bus.

Finley grabs the money quietly, still seeming bothered.

"I think what Eliot means is... how will we pay them?"

I'm Huney B now. Okay?

Thank you, sir...I hope it does... ("Marjorie" says. Then Benji adds to himself: I really hope it does. I'm spendin' too much money on restaurant food as it is...)

("Marjorie" then joins the others in the living room and takes two slices of pizza.)

So...how was your cookin', Marjorie? (Marsha whispers to Benji as she takes a Kelpsy Berry sandwich.)

Sorry, sis, I just wanted to have some fun, just sayin'. (Benji whispers back.)

For future reference, don't just barge inta other people's business just ta pull one 'a your tricks, okay? I thought yas were past that. (Marsha says.)

Sorry... (Benji says.)

It honestly shocked me that he never caught on, though... (Dinah remarks to herself.)

That's true.

(I say back to Marsha as I take some pizza of my own. I then say to Finley, Eliot, and Nori:)

Well, as long as we get rewards for doing these quests, don't you think we'd never run out of money to pay these Pokémon?

That 'Sweeper' idea I brought up a couple days ago crosses my mind again. (… That actually sounds kinda fun.)

If I don't clash, I don't change. The world ends at my borders, and the best moments slip away.

[I take a slice of pizza myself, then answer Marlon's frankly naive statement on the matter.] "The problem wud be tha'the funds we are getting, what'f we run outta them, then what? Would they-a, uh, scatter to the wind, er merely be paid wi'the fulfillment of our frien'ship...er courtship if you 'n Goob 're any precedent...we're not gonna haff money forever, y'know."

PJ: "Then we pay them with love and affection, of course. Clearly, if we can win their hearts, we won't need to win their wallets. ...Or something, I dunno."

*Following that half-assed attempt at humor, I hop onto the table and take a panini from the platter in the center. I take a bite and am pleasantly surprised. It's eggplant. Now there's something I don't have all that often. I sit down and dig in further, not realizing before just how hungry I am.*

(Ha, a courtship? I've already courted Marsha. I briefly look at Marsha and then back at Eliot:)

Well, that's going to be a bridge to cross when we need to cross it, won't it?

(Marsha is too into her sandwich to be really tuned into the discussion at hand. Benji and Dinah have gotten into a conversation about Orichalcum.)

"I imagine they'd accept pay for a given task, like say, "Escort us to Orichalcum", as an example. Or maybe acting as bodyguards for a set amount of time for a price based on the time. We obtained a generous amount of money rather recently here, and like was said; we can keep making it."

Noriaki stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "And in a best case scenario, there could be a rare occurrence like you hear in stories of a hired mercenary growing a strong sense of loyalty or affinity for their client. Or, the more likely case, they see a bigger prize over the horizon in staying with whatever group they ended up working in and stay a while longer."

"But really, iz not like we gotta price on our heads here..." [I tear into my first slice of pizza, quite roughly, I might add, I feel flecks of sauce splash against my cheek which I somewhat instinctively wipe off then suck off my fingers.] "Wha, we haven' been harassed by anyone really 'cept fer that Swella."

Teller's Bar

*Jani scoffs* Like they'd ever let that happen... *then sighs as she is forced to pay Teller for the fries* ...so much for Orichalcum: The Musical, I guess. Might as well take these fries back with us. *she grins as she grabs the little paper "basket" they came in with her teeth and "hops" onto the ground, modesty dirt and all. She moves around a little, trying to manipulate the dirt around her to help "carry" the fries. After a couple attempts, she gets it down*

To go, heh. Shall we? *Jani asks Andy, then remembers something* Oh yeah, there's a quick stop I need to make...it's on the way, but...well, it's just to confirm something. Something in all this mess that never added up...

Yeah, it is, Marsh. Never really heard of it, though.

(I aside to Marsha before focusing back on Eliot and Nori:)

Yeah, that Swellow who probably has too much of a hyperactive imagination...but I'm sure that there'll be more eventually..

"Ohhh, if she hadn'ta learned 'er lesson already, 'f she wants ta have at it again, she'll prolly learn not t'mess with us next time she wants ta pick a fight."

[Gobbling down the slice of pizza with dare I say animalistic ferocity, I lean in once more and grab a panini, lifting the top slice of bread to see its contents...oh...oh, dear.]

[Yes, let's put fake bread on some real bread...god, I'm never gonna let myself live that down. That'll teach me to try and eat weird looking rolls, they could be vegetables! But I'm not gonna put it back down now that my grimy, unclean hands have touched it...I brace myself and take a bite. It's not as putrid as when I initially (and inadvertently) tried eggplant some odd years ago, but I still have to bare it.]

(Throughout the trip back and the dinner until this point, my mind was focused on the Crabominable kingpin. Thinking of plans to bring a fitting end to his rule, I absentmindedly took a bite from a sandwich from a random berry. I thought about tagging these people around, but I feared not only for their safety, but for mine as well. Besides, most of my plans involved just me, my arrows, my gumption, or any combination of the above.)

(I sigh, knowing that bastard might come, but I just can't stay focused on him for too long. I had to eat after all. I look to the Dartrix, Noriaki, and spoke.) I don't mean to be rude, but if I'm gonna stick around and if... I mean when you evolve, we gotta have something to help set us apart. Like a scarf or a necklace.

"Possibly...", said Noriaki, adjusting his fringe, "Well, this "hairstyle" of mine us a bit wavier compared to usual Dartrix's, so perhaps something akin to this will be present when I someday evolve."
