Fourth Motto; Lobby action post go!

[about3seconds]

[So Ice Cream Tuesday was a big success. Meowth stuffed his face and everything was good and now he's curled up on a couch in the lobby with an empty bowl of ice cream in front of him that smells of berries and a good dose of catnip, and considering he's had several bowls of that concoction, it's no wonder he's a little flushed... Don't ask how a

[Well, there's an animal that looks kind of familiar. Clark does a bit of a double take and then retraces a few steps to get a better look.

It is a Meowth. Huh.]

[about3seconds]

[Meowth's ears flick slightly at the sound of footsteps, but he just curls himself into a tighter ball and yawns.] Just five more minutes, Jess.

[clarklike]

[Whoa. It talks. Last he heard, Pokémon just repeated their names back to themselves. Constantly.]

Huh. A talking Meowth...

[about3seconds]

[Earflick again. Meowth blearily opens his eyes and... O hai. You're not Jess or Jimmy. Sigh.]

How many times do I gotta- Huh? [DING. Meowth sits up.] Hey! You know what I am!

[clarklike]

Yeah, you're a Pokémon. I've never seen a talking one, though.

[about3seconds]

You say that like you ain't one o' the first person not from my neck o' the woods who actually knows what the heck I am. I thought it was just that Percy twerp.

[clarklike]

Well, lots of people don't remember visiting your world, or weren't here for it. Anyone who's been around for a few years will.

[about3seconds]

There's people who've been stuck here for years?

[This might be a cause for alarm for most people... Just wait.]

[clarklike]

A bunch of us, yeah. I'll be hitting the three year mark in a few days.

[about3seconds]

[GLEEFITS] Hah! So I could be stuck here forever. No more blastin' off, no more failures, no more twerpy trainers- just easy street from here on out!

[...Wait. He clenches his paw into a fist and growls.]
'Cept the main twerp and his darned Pikachu are still here, screwin' up my happiness. And there's that other twerp and his measley little Aipom.

[...He's talking to himself, Clark. You get used to it.]

[clarklike]

[That is one emotional cat...]

Pikachu's the yellow bunny-looking one, but who are the "twerps"?

[about3seconds]

[You don't even know, Clark.]

It's a little electric rat is what it is. And the twerps are the only two real Pokemon trainers in this joint.

[clarklike]

[But rats don't have ears like that. Confusing.]

So how do these kids ruin your happiness?

[about3seconds]

Me 'n my pals got a bad rep with twerps like that. I can't exactly take a vacation when I got some kid breathin' down my neck wonderin' what no good I'm up to.

[clarklike]

Why would they think you're up to no good? You're... a Meowth. I think that's a little unreasonable.

[about3seconds]

[Meowth used bruised ego, it was super effective.]

What? You think a Meowth ain't smart enough to pull somethin' extravagant off, bub? [........... Crap. Back that shit up.] I mean, 'o course it's unreasonable. [He puts his paws up to his face. See? See? He's cute. Not evil.]
