☇015 - Video/Action for Ecruteak City, just outside the Tower

[solidbarrels]

[ For the first time in weeks days, Squall finally appears on the network. Head tilted toward the sky, his brows furrows at the sight of snow intermingled with the hard rain. He's soaked, drenched and without a jacket. ]

Damn, thought I heard...

[ His head jerks at the sound of more thunder and a flash of lightning. Immediately he searches for the sound and finds nothing. Whatever brought him out of the tower, it had to be the lightning. Physically, he looks strained and tired--like he hasn't been sleeping properly. ]

Just another storm. Isn't it?

[ Squall glances toward his pokegear before reaching down to pick up his Cyndaquil. The fire-type seems to be wrapped up tightly with Squall's jacket before snuggling more into his chest.

[ The feed ends. ]

Wears peach color clothes, blond hair. She probably wouldn't have her whip... She already traveled that far...?

[ Damn it, now he's feeling guilty about not checking his 'gear that often. Not that he could, considering what he's been doing ever since he figured out he lost three whole days. ]

Hn. It's not like I'm sparring right now. There's nothing to worry about.

She seemed to be making good progress on the road, at least. She should still be in Violet; she was asking about potential employment.

Of course not. But do make sure not to catch your death out there. It might be hard to give you your Christmas present posthumously.

Travelling to Violet isn't that bad.

[ Hyne knows that Team Cosmos seems to manage it over and over again. ]

If she's asking for a job... I guess she'll be staying there for a while.

...Christmas?

Probably until she gets the badge. That should give you plenty of time to visit.

A holiday that involves giving gifts to friends and family. And also a man in a red suit on a sleight. Aerith and Trucy told me about it, and it sounded like a good idea. I've already found gifts for about half the people I have on my list.

Right...

Red suit in a sleigh. And gifts.

[ What. ]

[video]

[paladinlost]

That's what Trucy said. And don't tell me you'd say no to a free gift.

[ Who doesn't? ...Except when a person feels obliged to get the other person a gift and there's dammit, less than a week left to get any gifts. ]

Still. A sleigh and a red suit, is this supposed to be some weird big Johto holiday or what?

[paladinlost]

I'm not quite sure it is native to Johto, to be honest. But it apparently exists in many worlds, and our fellow outworlders are currently planning festivities all over the region.

Never heard of it.

[ A shrug ]

Then again. I never paid attention that holidays.

[paladinlost]

What about birthdays? Are you the type who never remembers those, including yours?

They're just another day of the year.

[ Although now that he has... friends, real friends, he'll probably do something for them but his birthday? What's so important about that? ]

[video]

[paladinlost]

But it's a day that celebrates the fact that you have survived another year, or that you now have the right to frequent taverns.

Taverns.

Being left behind while your best friend goes to buy himself a drink gets annoying, even if he's of age and you're not.
