[So Jack had just been training with his Pokemon outside of Violet as usual. He'd learned that Karp seemed to enjoy watching his other Pokemon fight, so he'd sent Ray out to gnaw on random Pokemon in the tall grass. Next thing he knew, Karp ended up floppng out of his hands in excitement. It was a routine thing. Karp was always excitable, but that

HEH!
At least you won't have to carry him around anymore!
... He can carry YOU around!

[Jack is still a little bit stunned by that display, having never seen a Pokemon evolve before.]
I'm not sure what just happened.
[But check the happy face on that Gyarados, man. It's licking him. Again.]

[AWWWW, it's a Gyaraderp.]
Almost makes me wish I'd kept mine.
[... But not really. Wall-Eyed Magikarp still freaked her out. She was glad she'd given that thing to Jack-- the Skellington Jack-- when she'd still had the chance.]

[He rolls his eyes, before grabbing Karp's face and using it to hoist himself up with. Karp doesn't even care.]
You let yours go?
[Jack wasn't sure he'd ever have been able to let Karp go. Sure, he was a stupid fish, but he was stupid to the point where he thought he probably would have ended up drowning or something equally retarded if he had let him go. Jack will always make sure his Pokemon manage to avoid drowning, yep.]

I stopped expecting it to make sense awhile ago.
And nah, I gave him to a friend. Another guy named Jack, actually.
S'doin' fine as far as I know.
[The skeleton-man had promptly named it 'Dennis'.]

...I miss Rose.
[He'd let her whine her pretty little mouth off if that made her happy, he just wanted to see her again.]

All these horror stories are kinda making me wanna stay out of relationships.

Now that I think of it, I think you mentioned her before. [But not the freakout part. Shudder.]

I think some people are just supposed to be alone, y'know?
[Oh hey Karp has just slowwwwly been sliding into frame there. Hellooo]

[... And wtf Karp.]
Er... hey there, giant... snake thing.
[... that face.]

[Jack suddenly realizes it'll be much, much harder to keep Karp out of the goddamn frame now.]
So how are things with you? I'll be leaving for Goldenrod soon with a bunch of friends.

Me?
I'm actually gonna be leaving Goldenrod soon... but maybe we'll run into each other, huh?
Who are you traveling with?
Reply
[He thinks.]
Uhh... Big Boss, Vulcan Raven, Ocelot... I know there are maybe a couple more people, but I can't really remember who right now. It's a bit confusing, especially when everyone is all spread out over Violet.

Huh... well, Snake's going to be going with me, I think... I guess he's making the trip back and forth a bit or something.
Reply
[He wonders if he'll run into Snake, too. He hopes if he does, he can stop himself from staring too much. He still couldn't get over how... old he was.]
