[Video / Action] - Camping En Route to Violet City

[defiantstand]

[It's been an oddly uneventful past few days since the newly formed Dai Gurren Dan set off from Cherrygrove City, a majority of the team feeling rather pleased to finally be done with the town. It had been a leisurely trip so far, a good many of the campfire gatherings at night spent making sure the group was properly acquainted with each other and

I saw a one legged owl last night!

[defiantstand]

What the hell's an 'owl'?

[Oh Bridget, if you saw some of the critters where Kamina was from, you'd think he CAME from a land of Pokémon...]

[walking_the_cat]

It's a bird that goes: "hooo hooo hooo" [He imitates this very softly.]

(OOC: lol XD You made my night a little better with the comment.]

I need an actually confused-looking Kamina icon for this... prefereably with sweatdrop

[defiantstand]

[At first he wants to ask if it looks like a flying tanuki... but then odds are, Bridget wouldn't have any idea what that would look like. So he just gives this confused look for a moment before shrugging and glancing off to the side.]

Guess I'll need to see it myself.

[The sound of "THTBTBBTBTBTH" is never far away from the Dai Gurran Dan, a name Gene is somewhat irritated with. Why was this guy in charge? He's wearing a cape for Christ's sake. Either way, Melfina is tending to a new egg she is holding, as Gene and his new Machoke "Sweet Pea" carries large sacks filled with eggs. Melfina politely fusses at him to be careful as they set them to the ground and walk over to Kamina.]

How much more do we have to go?

[Action]

[defiantstand]

[There were a couple reasons Kamina was in charge. First of which was the fact that he started throwing out ideas and everyone just happened to run with them. The second part was that he was in charge because he wore a cape. Especially when capes have flaming skulls with shades on them, that meant that guy was the most bad-ass of the group and people tend to follow bad-asses.

Besides, it's not like he didn't take suggestions when people threw them out. So it wasn't a total dictatorship.]

Eh, accordin' to the map, we got another day or so. Ain't much further.

[He raises his eyebrow at something he hadn't noticed before.]

Says here that there's some kinda ranch in the area. The hell is that?

[Action]

[used_zapcannon]

[Here comes the sarcasm. Kamina, you should've known better. Get ready to be spoken to like a 5 year old.]

A Ranch is a place where they keep cows and chickens and pigs Kamina.

[Just be glad you didn't get the "What sound does a cow make?" treatment. Sweet Pea walks up and looks around, wondering what the conversation is about.]

[Action]

[defiantstand]

[Kamina was not amused.]

What!? Yer sayin' they got shit like that around here?! THOSE DON'T EVEN SOUND LIKE POKéMON NAMES!!!

[Yup... "cow", "chicken" and "pig" just doesn't sound impressive enough to suggest it had ANYTHING to do whatsoever with all the random weird critter names he'd picked up so far.]

[beware_of_bears]

Well, I've heard of a lot of people losing to him...

[defiantstand]

Huh, just means we gotta train on the way and make sure we're ready for the bastard!

You goin' for badges too, kid?

[beware_of_bears]

Not really. I'm actually supposed to be aiming to be a breeder, so the reason I'm trying to train my Pokemon to be stronger is just so I can keep up with the rest of you and not lag behind. But do you think that we'll really go home if somebody gets them all? Or something else?

[defiantstand]

[He scratches his head a little. It was hard for him to say just where everyone was getting the idea that beating the gym leaders would send them home when no one even seemed to have an idea of how they got here to begin with.]

Couldn't tell ya kid. But hey if yer aimin' to be a breeder, we'll beat down plenty of 'em for ya to do yer thing with.

[1_2_jango_zzzz]

You're gonna challenge that bird guy?

[defiantstand]

Hell yeah! If I'm gonna throw down with those Elite Four guys an get travellin' rights to the other areas around here, I'm gonna need all the badges!

[1_2_jango_zzzz]

WOW! Whoo... so impressive.

You really think you can do it?

[defiantstand]

Heh, Gurren's as tough as they come and Aqua Man is a freakin' sea monster! This guy 'll be lucky to get a hit off!
