[ex_cashcow493]

WHO: Refer to tags
WHERE: Both Breeding Centers in Goldenrod City and Celadon City
WHEN: July 7th (forward-dated)
SUMMARY: Both buildings are decked out for a certain holiday. OOC information provided here.
RATING: PG (will change when necessary)
LOG:

[ Thanks to the help of so many others, both buildings in Goldenrod City and Celadon City were decorated in the colors of white, yellow, and teal. There's plenty of food available for trainer and Pokémon alike. With areas designated for mingling and for writing down wishes, it's not much of a celebration until the sun sets. When it does, the sky lights up with various fireworks. Once the excitement has died down, there will be a bonfire to burn the written wishes with, burning brightly until dawn. Who knows what else is going on? Perhaps someone will bring additional excitement to the party~ ]

Due to the nature of this log, it's going to be fairly open, so please feel free to make your own sub-threads. Just please comment under the appropriate city since both are celebrating it.

[Do you mind an Arcanine joining you this fine evening, Shirou? Or his somewhat out-of-breath trainer/companion person not a moment later?]

Toto-- stop-- please don't eat other people's food, I'll get you some--

[Huffff huffffff hhhufff.]

I-I'm sorry-- he hasn't taken anything yet, has he?

[wontdieifkilled]

[Well. Shirou's valiantly covering his food, so...]

Not yet. Can you get him to back up?

[milquetoasthero]

Toto-- I promise I'll get you some! Or you could get Echo to get you some!

[The Chimecho sounds when she hears her name - she's been hiding behind Toto the whole time - and Toto pulls away, tail wagging. Luca sighs and smiles apologetically, wringing his hands.]

I really am sorry. Toto's, um, not really my Pokémon - he's a friend's that was left to me after she went away - and he's a rather high level so I'm afraid he doesn't listen to me quite as well as he did his original trainer... He doesn't mean any harm.

[wontdieifkilled]

It's okay. No harm, no foul. And I'm sure you'll win him over some day soon.

[milquetoasthero]

Hopefully. [He pets Toto absently, then sends him off with the shy Chimecho to get food. Hopefully without much trouble.] Um... We're supposed to make wishes for this festival, right?

[wontdieifkilled]

Yeah, that's the central part of the celebration. If Orihime and Hikoboshi meet, our wishes can get granted.

[milquetoasthero]

Oh. So they don't get granted if they don't meet?

[wontdieifkilled]

They don't. But it's not raining, so we don't have to worry about that.

[milquetoasthero]

All right. Not that it matters for me anyway -- I couldn't figure out what I wanted to wish for earlier.

[wontdieifkilled]

You know, there's still some time left to do that.

[milquetoasthero]

There is? That's good. [He sighs.] ...I still don't know what to wish for though.

[wontdieifkilled]

Then let's try to organize some thoughts.

First thing: What do you desire the most?

[milquetoasthero]

Hmm... To go home, I guess. [At the same time he doesn't want to since Johto/Kanto's really nice and his home isn't but he has things to do and people to protect--] And to be strong enough to protect the people I care about and make sure the bonds I have never break.

[wontdieifkilled]

That sounds like at least two wishes right there. Arguably three.

[milquetoasthero]

[...Oh, so there is. Luca laughs a little, rubbing the back of his neck.] I guess you're right. What did you wish for, if you don't mind me asking?

[wontdieifkilled]

Um...

[Red creeps into his face.]

It's...kinda private.

[milquetoasthero]

Then you don't have to say anything. [He... knows what it feels like to have your privacy creeped on fdhjnv it isn't his fault he has a nasty habit of thinking out loud, okay!]
