Log:

(A - LOCKED TO TSUKIYAMA)
[ She ended up staying in Cherrygrove a little longer than intended to save up money for a camera, but on the morning of the 13th she finally decides to make use of the Abra Tsukiyama sent her. Teleportation is a weird experience and it's a bit disorienting, just popping in like that without being able to see the destination ahead of time but it's also really neat.

Not long after, she takes out her PokéGear to type a message: ]

I'm at the Pokémon Center. Come pick me up and treat me to parfait.

[ Once that's sent out, she plays with her Abra for a little while before she grows tired of waiting indoors - so by the time Tsukiyama gets there, he'll find her taking pictures of some bushes growing near the entrance. ]

(B - OPEN TO EVERYONE)
[ After she's spent time with Tsukiyama and filled her stomach with an absurd amount of dessert, Chie leaves to explore the city - and more importantly, to buy herself a good camera because she's spent over a week with just the one built into her PokéGear and that's no way to live at all. She's perfectly fine with being kidnapped to a different world but taking her camera is completely unacceptable, in her opinion. Once she's found the perfect camera (that happens to be an adorable shade of pink) she is absolutely excited and immediately sets out to put it to good use.

That said, anyone in Goldenrod today may run into a tiny girl who looks no older than twelve with her camera raised in front of her. She's almost constantly moving, her footsteps creating a steady rhythm on the pavement, and when she stops it's to take a picture of something that catches her attention - which can be pretty much anything, ranging from things on display in a window to a bicycle somebody propped up against a wall.

She's particularly interested in taking pictures of Pokémon, however, having recently made it her goal to photograph all the different species in this world. So if you happen to be around with one of your Pokémon out of their Pokéball? Then congratulations, you're about to get approached by a girl who aims her camera at your unfortunate critter and then snaps a picture of it. Apparently she doesn't care about asking for permission first, um. ]

(C - LOCKED TO THE TOKYO GHOUL HOUSE)
[ It's late in the afternoon when she decides that she should call it a day and go to the house since she hasn't seen it yet. So after making a quick visit to the Pokémon Center to retrieve a few things from the PC she heads over to the address she's been given.

...Let's just say that there now is a tiny girl standing in the hallway with a stupid number of Zigzagoons gathered at her feet. Thankfully, they don't seem to be interested in immediately swarming the house and settle for simply sniffing around in her near vicinity for the time being. ]

[He laughs a bit at that, though it's a bit on the quiet side; that feels nice, you.]

Chocolate today? ...Well, at least you don't have to worry about size, I've found some absolute disasters in my time here.

Hurry up so I can have one of those disasters, then. [ She continues to toy with his hair; it's very nice and soft and she can't resist touching it. ]

[All right, all right, goodness.]

They do say patience is a virtue, you know.

I don't feel like being patient when there's parfait waiting to be eaten, Tsukiyama-kun.

Well! Perhaps I can't blame you, when it comes to these.

[He's content to leave it at that, however.]

I assume this place hasn't given you too many problems.

It hasn't, no. Hiking through the woods to Cherrygrove took some time getting used to, but it wasn't too bad.

[ She's a quick learner and she saw some interesting shit on the way. :|a ]

How long have you been here?

It's going to be eight months next week.

[The answer is an easy one; he's at least reached a point where he doesn't seem to find that horribly strange.]

I've been in this city for most of it, really; the routes aren't quite to my liking, though I'd like to see more of the region eventually.

I'm probably going to travel around a lot. I have a goal to fulfill here, after all. [ Her IC Pokémon Snap quest is definitely going to keep her busy. ]

I'm not going to tell you what to do, little mouse - just be sure to talk to me once in a while, hm?

Sure, when I feel like talking to you.

[ ... ]

Or maybe I should travel with you so you can keep buying me parfait.

Ah, how lucky you are that I'm willing to let you bleed me dry!

[It's facetious, though.]

[ Yeah, she can tell. She's silent for a little while, toying with his hair some more as she looks around. Goldenrod is so interesting and she knows she's going to have a blast exploring the city later - but more importantly, she really wants that goddamn parfait. ]

How long until we get there?

[ There being wherever the parfait is. ]

Not much - I've a certain place in mind, you'll consider it worth it.

[Lord knows he's taken Naki for enough complete disaster parfaits, and Meridiana as well - though the latter admittedly doesn't tend to go for the complete disasters. Just the ones that are...sort of disasters.]

...Good to know you approve of what I've been putting in my hair here.

...It's soft and smells nice. [ How does he even get his hair this nice. ]

As though I'd allow anything else?

[He laughs a bit when he says it, though, and he stops where he's standing on the sidewalk, reaching up to give her something to brace against in a clear sign that she should jump down.]

Here we are - try not to horrify them too much with your order, will you?

I won't. Probably. [ ...Let's all be honest with ourselves here, if it doesn't horrify them at least a little bit then the parfait isn't large enough for her.

Once she's jumped down, she doesn't wait for Tsukiyama and immediately rushes inside to order the disaster parfait of her dreams. ]

[He isn't expecting her to wait, really, and honestly if nobody's appalled by whatever chocolate trainwreck Hori orders then clearly something's wrong with this situation, yes.

He's rather content to not order anything for himself, outside of the usual coffee that he gets sometimes on outings like this; rather, he just sort of...watches her while she does whatever it is she's going to do over there. He's fully aware that he's going to pay, and he can't say that he minds; this is just something that they do by this point, even if it's been a while since they've done it.]

I've still got no idea how you don't die, ordering things like that.

Maybe I have an extra stomach for dessert. [ She says, jokingly. The parfait in front of her looks large enough to feed an entire family, with tons of chocolate, salted caramel and cranberries. It's a fucking disaster and she's going to enjoy every second of it. ]

I'll give the rest to the Zigzagoons if I can't eat it all.

The...

[Um...]

How many do you have, exactly?

Ten. I caught them in Cherrygrove.

[HORI.]

That's a little much, n'est-ce pas?

[ IS THERE A PROBLEM. ]

It's a good number of Zigzagoons to have.

[...YES??? ...Maybe. Um.]

...Well, if one must have a large number of anything, ten is an acceptable number, I suppose.

...I guess I should explain why I caught them, huh? It's a relatively common Pokémon that's found in the first town most newcomers travel to. I don't think anyone's going to think it's weird to see one in a specific area.

[ ... ]

So I'm going to train them to spy on people for me.

[Good girl.]

I knew you wouldn't disappoint me.

I've no doubt that I can keep things interesting for you, should you ever become bored with the state of things eventually.

[If you get his drift.]
