YAY FOR ACTION /o/

[usedswitcheroo]

[He's been sitting on another bench, but it wasn't it under the streetlight or anything, so he was completely concealed by the darkness-- until he spoke.]

You can't find the inn?

[overthedratini]

-- Eh?

[Johan will be snapping his head up and looking for the source of the voice, then focusing in on where it came from after a few moments.]

E-Ehehe, yeah. It's been a long time.

[usedswitcheroo]

[He's guessing that Johan can't exactly see him, so he'll get up from the bench and walk towards him.]

A long time? You've been here before?

[overthedratini]

[At the sight of him, Johan will get up to offer the person a handshake! Always gotta be friendlylike.]

Hehehe, yeah! A few months ago. I've been in Johto a while now, really.

[yattagarasu]

[ and out of the darkness comes a familiar-looking Wooper LAUNCHING HERSELF at aforementioned scrappy young man. ]

WOOOOO!

Hey, Flapper! Vigilantes don't woo their arrival!

[overthedratini]

[I RECOGNIZE THAT WOOOO!!]

-- Flapper!! Kay!

[And now this scrappy young man is perking up right away to grab that flying Water type in a big ol' hug.]

[yattagarasu]

[ please don't squish her, Johan. Kay's not far behind, though she screeches to a halt when she spots Johan and offers him a grin. ]

You look a lot better!

[overthedratini]

[you're getting a grin right back, and soon after, you're getting a hug along with Flapper--]

Thanks! I missed you guys!

[ACTION, HOOO]

[bakaitoukid]

[Hark! There be a light in the distance! Is it a lamp? A torch? A flashlight? A glowing worm?

... nah, it's just Kaito and his Charizard. But hey, at least Charizards have good torch-tails]

Need directions?

[ACTION MAH ACTION]

[overthedratini]

[... probably saw that not-so-little dude last as a Charmeleon but HOLY PANTS LOOK AT THAT.]

... I think that's not the only thing I need!

Where can I get one of those guys? [teasing, because here comes a hug Kaito mah boi.]

[ACTION] immediately thought of OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN...

[bakaitoukid]

[quite possibly since he just evolved last Friday but YAY FOR GIANT FIRE MONSTERS.

Said Charizard lets out a grump and a snort of flame as Kaito grins veeery widely]

Magician's se-- [Oh whoops interrupted by a JOHAN HUG, which has him blinking for a few moments before he returns it a bit awkwardly but with heart!

-- and then promptly remembers Johan was bedridden sick the last time he saw him]

Oi oi, are you trying to give your germs to me?

[ACTION] ... OH KID-O MY KID-O?

[overthedratini]

[Don't be like that, Charibud.]

-- Hey! I made sure not to leave until I was at least 70% better!

So your chances are about three in four that you'll be fine!!

[Action]

[foolishwren]

[What's this? .... What is that head of blue hair under that streetlight? ... SHE RECOGNIZES THAT HEAD.]

[A smirk crosses Heather's face in the darkness-- of course she's lurking around alleyways at night just like her reputation in this city would dictate. Good going, kid.]

[In any case, she's gonna be creeping up behind the bench in near silence-- she's good at moving around in those boots all subtle-like. ... And provided he doesn't turn around or notice her presence (... and assuming Girafarig's TAIL doesn't notice her presence), she'll be.....]

[... Grabbing his shoulders and growling out a mock-gruff]

YER MONEY OR YER LIFE.

[Action]

[overthedratini]

[Oh, the tail notices. But it just keeps on grinning - it grins more if anything, the devil - so Johan doesn't notice at all. Innocent and unknowing, Johan just sits there looking up and--

Jumps a foot upon the sound of a voice and the feel of some hands on him all of a sudden.]

G-GYAAAH!!

[Action]

[foolishwren]

[When he jumps, she lets go and hops backwards just in case there's any terrified punches coming her way. Stumbling a step or two away, she plants one hand on that lamp post and the other on her knee, and proceeds to laugh her brains out.]

AAHAhahaaaha!

Your FACE!

[Heather Mason is a horrible person.]

[Action]

[overthedratini]

[You can say that again.

Lucky for her, he's just flailing a bit before he recognizes the voice and immediately turns to grin at the source.]

Heather!? Did you really have to do that...!?

[action]

[itsthebutz]

[Of course Larry would be out late training on a night like this. Heading back to the hotel, he notices a familiar face by the streetlight.

Moving closer, he calls out:]

Dude, Johan! Haven't seen you in a while!

[All that's visible on Larry's end is a pair of glowing eerie red eyes several feet off the ground, however.]

[action]

[overthedratini]

[Johan blinks a few times. He definitely recognizes the voice well enough, and was about to turn and greet him, but...

Waaait a moment Larry does not have eyes like that.]

... Larry?

[action]

[itsthebutz]

The one and only!

[Finally, Larry emerges from the darkness, but the creepy eyes remain behind him. He seems oblivious to their presence.]

What's up, man? It's been ages!

[action]

[overthedratini]

Heh, a lot's been up-- Well, long story short, I guess you could say I caught a bug, and then...

[he pauses and points towards the eyes]

But right now, I think there's something up over there.
