oo2 . video/action for Cherrygrove

Apr 01, 2011 16:36

[ Sanae is chilling in the Cherrygrove Pokemon center, drinking their crappy coffee and stroking his Persian like a Bond villain and/or Giovanni. And going through his wallet. ]

Sure wish there was more to do around here than work a register. Cash was never much of a problem back home, [ what with being a) famous and b) a higher being with Jedi ( Read more... )

round two, !cherrygrove, being human is annoying, :java, just wants his gambling fix, sanae we don't need more egg posts, will paint for money, he misses having wings, cat was probably loaded

[ Aaannd Neku wanders up for the tail-end of that post, plopping down in the seat across from Hanekoma. ]

... This place is supposed to be based off the games, right? Wonder how you make money in them.

[ -- No, Neku didn't have a childhood, and no, he has no idea that the answer is "by beating up random strangers and wild animals." ]

You can work a register or you can battle, looks like that's about it.

[ Or, if you have a Persian, you can use Pay Day fifty million times to get rich. But that involves battling, which he isn't the best at. ]

You never played the things?

... I guess battling would suck less than getting stuck behind a register.

[ You gotta feed your mad gambling addiction somehow, Mr. H. :|a ]

... Nah, they always sounded kind of... [ Stupid. :| ] ... boring.

Besides, I'm not that big on video games. Better stuff to do.

[ Like trawl the skeevy parts of Shibuya in search of CAT-art. ]

Battling's a whole less exciting than it sounds, I can tell you that. Standing around and yelling out stuff for your magic pets to do? Not my usual style, at least.

[ He is far too dignified and hipster for this. ]

I'm with you there, anyway. Better to be out in the world someplace than all wrapped up in a screen.

... Still better than dealing with customer service.

[ Because, really. Neku. Customer service. Can you imagine? ]

Don't think it matters, though. The one I got is... [ ... :|a Kind of a derp. ] ... uh.

... Yeah, I guess.

[ Besides, playing Pokemon would have ruined Neku's cool loner kid image. God forbid, and all that. ]

Plus, I never really... got the point. Why the hell does some kid care about teaching his pet to beat up other pets so he can be the best at beating up weird little animals?

Hah! You get used to 'em. I was the same way when I first showed up, and by now, I'm actually real fond a' Java.

[ At the last bit, he shrugs. ]

Could say the same for most video games these days. For anything, really. There's always someone it'll strike a chord with.

... Yeah, I guess the dog isn't that bad.

[ Neku is The Best at Naming Things. ] And, hell, could be worse. At least we're not stuck in Pac-Man.

[ That gets a laugh from him. ]

Could be a whole lot worse, for sure. For all I know, maybe we'll like it here -- a few moments of it, at least. Every place has got its silver lining.

Yeah, I guess so...

[ ... it's not like he'd say this out loud, but... he's already traveling around with CAT, so... right. Silver linings. ]

... the whole camping thing sort of sucks, but... I guess this place is... okay.
