Log:

[ So it's been three days on the road for Suoh and his new partner. He's getting used to the little guy. After all, he's got plenty of chances to prove himself on the road in wild battles. Maybe this isn't going to be so bad after all. And Bandou's here so it really isn't too bad... at least he thinks so.

Mikoto lets out a breath as he shifted his bag on one shoulder. There's a click of his tongue though as he approaches the gate of Cherrygrove. ]

Looks like we made it in one piece.

[ The Litleo nods, uttering a little mewl as he pads after his trainer. He's slightly concerned though as he's down to his last two cigarettes. Hoboy.

So even if he wants one right now, he's gonna have to resist. The pack goes back into his jacket though as he steps into town. But he finally stops, turning his attention back to his pokemon. ]

Oi. Go find Bandou.

[ The pokemon replies with a quick Leo! and dashes off in search of that dude with the shades his trainer was talking to a few days ago. If he finds him, there will be much pants-leg-tugging and pawing at just to get his attention. ]

Comments

shame on me, shame on my cow

[ignisinfernale]

[ Nah, it's fine. If anything, he probably deserves the scolding so he's welcome for it.

But it's still a little odd that Bandou doesn't know what went down... ]

Don't mind it. We just had a little too much fun.

[ But more pressing matters after a thoughtful hum... ]

What's the last thing you remember?

[chickshades]

[ There's some sputtering because why the hell won't Mikoto tell him everything!]

FUN?! What the hell does--

Ah...oh. Yata just got the shit kicked out of him by the Black Dog guy. And he was on that asshole's side or something? Yashiro or whatever.

[ignisinfernale]

[ Yeah, fun. Fun with his fists and Reisi's sword. Oodles.

...hang on, that was like... forever ago. So there's more staring. ]

Yata got the shit kicked out of him ages ago. Anna found that guy we need in Ashinaka.

[ Or it felt like ages when you don't have anything else to do in prison but stare at the wall. Sleeping conditions could have been A+ if Reisi didn't act like the worlds worst alarm clock.

But quelle suprise. Bandou doesn't know about his little tete-a-tete with Mister Blue. ]

[chickshades]

N-no...it was like twenty minutes before I got here!

[ Didn't a bunch of people tell him that time stopped while they were stuck here?? No man, this is not cool. ]

[ignisinfernale]

[ Complete heel face turn to look at Bandou directly. There's an obvious confused furrow to his brow. ]

Coulda sworn it was a while ago.

[ And a click of his tongue. ]

...time's fucked up.

[chickshades]

You're telling me...

[ He'll follow along, quiet and just trying to figure out what the fuck is going on.

Finally he speaks up. ]

So...we got the guy then?

[ignisinfernale]

[ It takes a bit for Suoh to respond, only because he's trying to make sense of everything too. ]

Aa. Had us running all over town but we got him. Anna found him, they broke me out, we trailed him.

[chickshades]

Well that's good, right?! At least we got some vengeance for Totsuka-san!!

[ignisinfernale]

[ And there's an amused smirk at that. ]

Heh... yeah, we did. He should be smiling down at the rest of HOMRA after that.

[ And probably ready to scold you when you meet him in the afterlife, Suoh. ]

[chickshades]

Yeah, right?

[ Can't help but look up at the clear sky at that comment, a slightly sad smile on. ]

[ignisinfernale]

Aa.

[ He's looking in the same direction a moment before letting out a breath, his attention caught by the litleo rolling around his feet. ]

So... what now?

[chickshades]

Aa?

[ He sees where Mikoto's looking and snaps out of his daze. ]

Oh. Uh, you know that game, Pokemon?

[ignisinfernale]

[ Well, he's certainly heard of it. Played it a few times but not as intensely as mot people. There's a frown though as he tried to figure it out. ]

...you mean we're in the game?

[chickshades]

Yeah pretty much. I don't know how the hell it happened or how to turn the damn thing off, though.

[ignisinfernale]

Haven't heard anything either. Sure as hell that lady wasn't my mom.

[ There's an evident frown there as he thinks it over.

You're the leader, Suoh. Time to lead. But since San-chan seems to know a thing or two about it... ]

Who's in charge here?

[chickshades]

Uh...us? I mean, there's a bunch of Officer Jennys around, but other than that, I think we can just do whatever the hell we want.

[ignisinfernale]

[ He's seen the officers around. Steered clear of them too, out of habit. They're no Scepter 4 but better safe than sorry anyway.

There's a soft 'huh' of consideration though. ]

Didn't the games have those gyms or something? Boss battles?

[chickshades]

Yup! That's what makes being stuck here pretty awesome! I mean, I never thought I'd actually get to catch real life Pokemon.

The first gym's pretty easy [ Going by the games. He ain't got no badges yet. ], but you're gonna need a few more Pokemon and you gotta level them up and stuff first.

[ignisinfernale]

[ Okay, making a mental note of that. Need more pokemon... need to train them... Sausage won't be enough.

He has to admit, it warms his heart to see his clansmen excited about something and Bandou does look plenty excited. So hey, while they're stuck here. ]

...Wanna do that?

[chickshades]

Hell yeah I do!

[ Excited is a tame word for Bandou. Plus having his King here makes this even better! ]

Hey you know there's tons of fire types, too! You could make like a mini HOMRA out of Pokemon!

[ignisinfernale]

[ Hearing that enthusiasm warms his heart. It brings him back to better days when they didn't have anything to worry about. ]

How about this guy.

[ Turning his attention to Sausage. ]

Ever seen his type before?

[chickshades]

[ Bandou leans over, checking out the tiny Litleo. ]

No. But it should be in this!

[ He pulls his gear out and lets the dex inform them on the little fire-lion. ]

Litleo huh? That's a pretty awesome starter. Did you name it something yet?

[ He totally doesn't sound like he wants it to be named after him, really. ]

[ignisinfernale]

[ He's just gonna glance over Bandou's shoulder. A litleo. Heh, that's kind of ironic. A baby lion. ]

He kinda looks like a Sausage.

[ Sorry Bandou. No one's getting pokemon named after them. Suoh's lunch however is another story. ]

[chickshades]

[ Bandou's frowning and looking from the real Litleo to the dex image and back again a few times. ]

I...guess yeah. Is that what you're naming it?

[ Oh yeah didn't he name that stupid horse strain after food, too? This lion better not kick him in the face like that horse did! ]

[ignisinfernale]

[ Have a shrug for that. It sounds like a good name as any. ]

Looks like he doesn't mind.

[ Sausage kind of looks totally oblivious to his name but there it is. ]

[chickshades]

Maybe he doesn't know what a sausage is?

[ He shrugs back but suddenly remembers something. ]

Hey! I didn't get a fire type starter, but mine's still pretty awesome!

[ He pulls a Pokeball from his pocket and a flash of light burst out as his Duskull emerges. ]

This guy's Dai-ichi!

[ignisinfernale]

[ There's a smirk when he looks the Duskull over. Sausage meanwhile gives a little chirp of greeting, hopping around between his trainer and New Friend with the Shades.

The King meanwhile, is amused. ]

Heh... you kinda look like him.

[chickshades]

[ Dai-ichi floats down, spinning around Sausage and observing him. He hovers above him, flailing his ghostly cloth arms in an odd 'hello'. ]

Do I?

[ Bandou doesn't see the resemblance but he's not insulted or anything by it. I mean, they're both pretty cool guys so that's a plus for both of them! ]
