What's the general average of Pokémon caught versus time spent here, guys? I feel like I'm way fuckin' behind since I haven't got many. I guess maybe I'm just picky.
Oh.

[He switches to Video, hoisting his Riolu into the field of vision. He-- smiles, moreso than he grins, which is probably an odd sight to most.] This is Roxy. And, uh-- Sawtooth, stop chopping up tree branches y'fuckin' nerd, get over here. [The gear moves around in a dizzying motion as Dirk sets Roxy down and carries the gear to a nearby tree, in which his Skarmory is perched and, as mentioned, chopping away at tree branches with his wings. Dirk sighs.] Smile for the camera, dummy.

Only three...?

[She frowns. She's already familiar with most of John's friends (they're John's friends, clearly, because John is the first one she befriended), and Dirk's not the only one who's said something like that.]

Is stuff like that common where you're from? You weren't on an island by yourself too, were you?

[Jeez what is your world, oceans and one-man islands??]

Yep. The pet analogy works the best for them. I'm not a pet owner back home, but having Pokemon is probably similiar. Without the Pokemon-specific part of raising them, of course.

you go ahead and tell urself that, dirk
whatever helps you sleep at night

yes yes it is how could you not sense my presence the moment i arrived
kanto!
cause i was dumb and let my poke decide my travel plans
but it worked out p damn well

i met rose
and john and aradia too
but
:3

i dont need any rescuing
but wouldnt object to any kind of swooping in all heroically ofc

Ohhh, clever. Riolu and Roxy are both pretty cute too! There's that as well. And Espeon is a good Pokémon for Rose, you won't hear me judging you for naming one after her.

And naahhh. Everyone pretty much just does their own thing. You typically tend to accumulate more the longer you've been here, especially if you have a lot of friends who have left but it's not like...a given thing, you know?

Being from a post-apocalyptic future will do that to you. They're the best friends a guy could ever ask for, so it never bothered me much. Island was Jake, but I guess I kinda lived on an island by myself? Except that island was my apartment because shit was flooded like Waterworld.

[Something like.]

I'm not a fan of lying to myself about my true bara nature, Rox.
I can't resist me.

Kanto?
Dang girl. Your 'mon know how to move.

I'm glad.
Jake and Jane and I are out doing some crazy shit with Dave and Jade.
Shit's surreal.

I'll see about getting my ass to Kanto asap, then.

Sweet.
I'll see if he's anymore interested in getting 'mon to do the do than he is on getting them to fight.
He's a confusing dude.
Loves fighting and wrestling and shit himself, apparently can't do it with Pokémon.
Jake English, enigma.

Yeah, I've never had a pet but there were a fucking lot of seagulls that hung around my place back home. It seems like a modified sort of pet ownership.

They're both goddamn adorable, really. [He grabs the Riolu around the middle and actually cuddles her. Dirk your dere is showing.] I'm gonna have an Eevee farm, I didn't realize how many evolutions there were of it now. I'm like shit, I've got to have every single one of them. It's kind of a problem.

Yeah. I figured, I just wasn't sure if I was gonna look like a loser for only having a couple or something. I've got like a 'mon for every month I've been here, and that's about it. Couple more now, maybe.

Thank you for your gracious timestamp on my rat race to achieve way too many fucking creatures.

[An eyebrow quirks above his glasses.] Uh. I'm gonna go with "no" then. Tentatively. You're freaking me out.

Haha. I think probably not. I'm takin' this shit nice and slow to keep from losing my cool.

I dunno, I'm not used to puppies being blue and bipedal.

[She looks absolutely horrified.]

How did you survive if all that was left was your apartment?

Pretty sure I've said it before and will say it several more times after this but yup. You're definitely related to Rose, all right.

[Like ectodaughter like ectodad. Eevees, man.]

You won't look like a loser for someting like that though, don't worry. I'd be more worried about your dumb, pointy anime shades, personally.

[John did you really just stick your tongue out.]

It does, just with some human-Pokemon partnership mixed into things.

You kinda have seagulls as pets?

hahaha
he did a lot of breeding last time
or well
i did
he just let me use his pokemon
it was for science

The easy answer is "very carefully".

I'll take your word for that one.
And not ask for embellishment because I'm pretty sure I don't want to know.

Kinda.
There were a bunch of them around since I kind of lived in an apartment-turned-island, and I fed them sometimes.

She's my precious purple-eyed daughter and I produced her with my penis. It was a good day.

[He will never stop enjoying that joke.]

Hey-- hey. Don't start knockin' the shades, bro, I don't want to have to get serious with you.

[John please.]

there was a ferry in pallet
it was like a hop skip away when i got here
cause kantos where the games take place yknow

dont get too crazy
wouldnt wanna come find out you nerds fell off a small ledge or smth
surreal as in totes amaze or surreal as in creepy dollhouse horror

wow yes stamp of approval on this plan
kanto > johto tbh

"Apartment-turned-island" sounds like there's a story behind it.

well i didnt watch

And the party don't start 'til you walk in, right?
You're on your own little Roxy adventure.
Please don't come back wearing microshorts with a boner for blue shit.

But there are so many small ledges around here.
You'd better come quick to make sure none of us fall.
Help us, Obi-Wan Rox-oni, you're our only hope.
Totes amaze. I mean it was a little weird at first since Dave's my age and shit, but...
He's my brother and he's alive, that's pretty much all that really matters.

I'll bring it up with the group. I think we can probably take a little vacation from our routes, if nothing else.

Not a whole lot of one, really.
I'm from a post-apocalyptic future wherein me and one of my best friends are the only two humans still alive.
My apartment is about two stories away from being underwater.

That does not make this any better.
