[codeforhope]

Of course. I'm happy to help! I'll make a post on the network once I have the eggs, so keep an eye out for it.

5/6; audio

[nullorvoid]

[And this morning, Chihiro will be greeted by audio from right the hell out of nowhere. The guy on the other end sounds more than a bit irritable and like absolutely nothing is going his way this week - either that or his natural state is just perpetually set to "1000% done", it's hard to say.]

Hey. I heard you know how to get cats for people.

[...yeah.]

[codeforhope]

[...well this is, um. ...sir you sound very displeased are you okay...]

Oh, well, um...are you looking for Meowth?

[He only breeds two types of cat Pokemon right now, but the Meowth seem to be the more popular ones.]

[nullorvoid]

I guess so. You're Fujisaki, right?

[Ginti, you probably should have verified that at the start.]

[codeforhope]

That's right. May I ask who this is?

[nullorvoid]

Ah, yeah - name's Ginti. Some guy called Jaeger sent me.

[codeforhope]

[...aaaah okay, this is starting to make a little more sense.]

Oh, I see. He got a Meowth from me a while ago.

Are you interested in one, Ginti-san?

[nullorvoid]

Yeah. I've heard they do some interesting stuff.

I've already got one of those...crap. Es...purr? The little purple things that see forever. As long as the things we're talking about don't also see forever, we'll be good.

[codeforhope]

They don't, no. They do hatch knowing Thunderbolt, though. That's one of the things that makes them so appealing whenever I breed them, I think.

[It's a bizarre novelty that even he can't get over.]

[nullorvoid]

Yeah - yeah, he told me about that! That's what I'm interested in.

[Suddenly he sounds a lot more pumped, goodness.]

I'm guessing I'm going to have to pay you for it, but that's fine assuming you're willing to part with one of 'em.

[codeforhope]

Of course! Though...I honestly don't mind letting you have one for free, as long as I know they'll be going to a good home.

[It seems like he's a fairly new arrival, after all, and he's nothing if willing to help new trainers on their feet in the roster department.]

[nullorvoid]

[...Well, you're excellent.]

Sounds great, then. I don't think I'm anywhere near civilization right now, but maybe we can work something out once that's changed.

[HE IS WANDERING AROUND WITH A DRAGON GIRL AND NEITHER OF THEM HAVE A SENSE OF DIRECTION, IT'LL BE A WHILE]

[codeforhope]

That's fine! It will take some time to breed the eggs, anyway...but I should have them ready within the week.

I'm guessing you're traveling to Cherrygrove?

[nullorvoid]

That obvious that I'm new here, huh?

[codeforhope]

Ah, well...I wouldn't say obvious...but most people start traveling right away when they get here since New Bark isn't really the best place to stay long-term.

[nullorvoid]

I'll say it's not. Between Mom and the part where there's no place to actually stay and all.

[codeforhope]

Yes, that's the biggest problem...she seems to try to get people traveling right away, no matter how cold or nasty it is outside. Personally, I think it would be a good idea to have a small inn or something for new arrivals, just in case something like that happened.

[nullorvoid]

She makes you buy your own damn matches.

[AND THAT'S TERRIBLE.]

[codeforhope]

That's another thing...I...I suppose she's just trying to get everyone to be independent? Since she thinks we are her children and all...

[Trying to make Mom make logical sense is incredibly difficult.]

Eh...it's still a bit strange, though...is your traveling going okay, though?

[nullorvoid]

It could be better, but it could be a hell of a lot worse, too. So I'm not going to whine about what I've got, let's put it that way.

[codeforhope]

That's good. It's just a few days to Cherrygrove at least, so you should be there fairly soon.

[nullorvoid]

Yeah. Anyway. Thanks for the cat.

[...]

Potential cat.

[codeforhope]

You're welcome. Let me know when you make it to Cherrygrove, and I'll have the egg sent to you right away.

[pinnedbangs]

[Rin pats Chihiro's shoulder in what he hopes is a reassuring gesture.]

I know you will! Just relax, okay? I'm the one holdin' it so this of it as me takin' all the hits!

[Did that sound lame? Hopefully not. He was trying to impress Chihiro, not make Chihiro less likely to think of him as a cool dude.

With that little proclamation, Rin wanders off to the nearest sofa and plants himself between the cushions. The gear is on and ready and there is an open seat right beside him and ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?????

Rin has a bright and eager smile on his face and he boots up the game on the gear. He looks over the top of the pokegear for just a moment.]

The first night should be super easy!
