ladywithnovoice | Function (1) - Text/Action for Route 29

[Eventually, after punching Royce and a couple one sided conversations and getting the hang of battling before anything else, Red finally discovers her own 'Gear has a text function. She actually types a lot... It's just that none of it really goes through, every line deleted. There's so much to say, she doesn't even know where to start.]

[Well... Royce is on information gathering duty, as much as he hates talking with people, so she finally decides to go with something more mundane.]

I don't know who voted for all the rain, but I don't suppose anyone wants to let a lady borrow an umbrella? [A pause before she adds-] Or a pack of cigarettes.

[And because she can't help herself...]

As for these Pokemon, are there any kind that can sing? Or any more dogs. I wouldn't mind another if I could figure out where to find one.

[For anyone in New Bark or on the route itself, they'll be able to see Red along it along with an Electrike that's constantly chasing Pokemon out of the tall grass. They're both actually rather quiet, but she's quick to look up when she realizes there's someone else nearby. Well... Someone besides Royce, who's nearby as wel and who she's also keeping an eye on.]

Nice to meet you, Royce! So I'm guessing you're traveling with Red, yeah?

[Jimmy has a brief inclination to ask about that, but....he decides to just let it pass for now. Cigarettes must be important if Royce needs them.]

Yeah, hopefully! Good luck with your traveling and all, and if you guys need any help you can call me if you want! I'm kinda far away from New Bark right now, but I'll still try to help however I can.

Thanks. We'll keep you in mind.

What's the next town called?

OH
HEE HEE
BUT THEN
WHY WOULD YOU WANT
CIGARETTES ?

JULEE IS
A CHATOT THE MUSIC NOTE POKEMON !
SHE IS VERY PRETTY

[Mostly because Zack said so, so it must be true!]

SHE ALSO SINGS
VERY PRETTY
DUM DA DUM DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA
LIKE THAT !

It's called Cherrygrove City! It's not too far away, just a couple days worth of traveling.

I think we'll be fine from Rattatas. I have a pretty good guard dog with me.

But I'll be sure to remind Royce to be careful with his smokes.

Is it a nice place?

The guy I'm traveling with smokes.

I've been told about Chatots. It sounds like I should get one if they're all as pretty and as good a singer as Julee.

Do you think I should?

Yeah, I think so! I stayed there for a little while when I got there for the first time. It's right next to a beach, too.

I can't imagine the beach will be much in this weather.

Still, it sounds nice. Maybe we'll stay there for a while until we've gotten a better handle on things.

YOU SHOULD
TELL HIM THAT THEY ARE BAD
FOR HIM

YES !
THOUGH IT MIGHT NOT BE
AS PRETTY AS JULEE
IT SHOULD STILL BE
VERY NICE
AND YOU CAN SING
TOGETHER !

[It's complicated but...]

yes. for now, at least.

Will do.

[There's a pause at that. It's silly, but she doesn't really want to reveal singing isn't something she can do anymore. 'Not talking' is a lot easier than 'not singing'.]

It'll have to sing solo. I can't do a duet with someone anymore. My voice was stolen.

OH
OKAY

IF IT WAS STOLEN
YOU SHOULD GET
A NEW ONE !
OR ASK FOR IT BACK
IF YOU REALLY LIKED
THE ONE BEFORE

Sounds great! There's a lot to do there, so you shouldn't get bored, even with how bad the weather's been.

That's good! It's always good to have someone to travel with.

[Another long pause.]

When I was back home, I was trying to get it back again. I can't do it here.

But someone has told me he might be able to make one for me, even if it won't be the same.

i don't tend towards doing things with others by nature.

Good. A good guard dog and carefulness will get you far in this world, at least until the weather and the ghosts decide to get funny.

I just want to find someone in particular.

If you see a giant glowing blue sword with a big red eye in the middle, could you tell me?

Really? How come?

Ghosts?

Giant glowing blue sword, huh? Sure, I will! You can count on me.

[Curious...but then again, he's been friends with stranger things.]

i'm not good with people.

EVE THINKS
SHE UNDERSTANDS

THAT IS
VERY NICE OF HIM !
