03 | when it comes [ video ]

[ Today Claire's laid on the bed in the room of the hotel that she's been staying in. It's not bad, and the work's been pretty decent. She's slowly starting to get used to the place although she still doesn't have much of an idea of what to do ]

So I think I've seen pretty much all I can about this place, this city anyway. I've even started learning some of the history as... there's really not much else.

Working here isn't bad, at least I'm doing something and that something feels pretty useful. That and [ There's a small 'oof' as Claire's Vulpix jumps up on the the bed and ends up landing on her ]

Meredith! [ She sort of half turns around to try and pick it up, or at least try and push it to the side so that it's sat next to her instead of on her ]

That and feeling useful is good. It's better than being stuck here and there being absolutely nothing.

I'm getting used to the Pokemon, too, and seeing them everywhere. It was weird at first but now... it's not as shocking, anyway. I ended up catching that Psyduck, mostly just to stop it from following me everywhere. [ And she picks up the Gear, pointing it towards the floor ] Lyle, come and say hello.

Psy? [ But it does waddle over, its face ending up being pressed against the Gear ]

I've now just got to figure out what else to do. [ As she talks she turns the Gear back around and puts it back on the bed ] Quiet cities are nice but this is a little too quiet. I don't want to travel, at least not constantly and training and battling? Only if I have to. Something tells me that its not going to be as easy to travel after this city. [ Because that would just be too simple ] So that mostly rules out collecting the gym badges, unless I'm missing something about them.

And for anything else... Goldenrod City's on my list, maybe even to stay. It's big, which means there has to be something more there. Who knows?

[ Feel free to chip in with ideas, listeners ]

So you have a Psyduck that did that too, huh. I wonder if they're all like that or something...
onemoreattribute: (and around [ for a deeper thing ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-03 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Did yours happen to follow you around until you caught it?
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-03 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
That's exactly what happened. She wouldn't leave the Centre, it was kind of weird...
onemoreattribute: (look down [ i can't help it ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-04 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
That is weird. I wonder what it'll do now I've caught it.
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-04 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably keep following you around and holding its head. Well, if it's anything like mine, at least.
onemoreattribute: (and around [ hope to see ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-04 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
That'll make me wonder why I've caught it. I thought catching it would stop that.

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-04 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if it helps, once it evolves, it gets a lot better.
onemoreattribute: (look down [ have to find so ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-04 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean?
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-04 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh, when it evolves, it turns into a Golduck. Which is waaaaay less annoying. At least, it is from what I know.
onemoreattribute: (look down [ try not to ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-04 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
A Golduck, huh? Let me guess, it doesn't hold its head?
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-05 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and it's waaaaay less noisy, too.

That's what I heard about Goldenrod, too... so that's where my group's heading. You're in Cherrygrove too?
onemoreattribute: (that look [ try to see ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-05 08:59 am (UTC)(link)
I hadn't really noticed much noise.
onemoreattribute: (smiles [ it can be too ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-05 09:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I got here about a week ago or something... to Cherrygrove.

[identity profile] reaccepts.livejournal.com 2011-09-06 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Cherrygrove is a nice city, but... I'm definitely looking forward to getting away from it. It's a little too small.
onemoreattribute: (that look [ he said it was ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-06 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I know what you mean. I've never been in a small town before and now I guess I know why people prefer cities.

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-06 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe that's just mine then....
onemoreattribute: (smiles [ you know it ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-06 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It'd make sense for them all to be different, right?
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-06 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, definitely. Most of them have personalities all their own... like people. Or dogs, or whatever. [A chuckle.] But a lot of the Psyduck I've seen kind of... tend to be noisy, so I thought maybe it was like that for all of them.
onemoreattribute: (that look [ i made it ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-07 10:30 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe that makes mine extra weird, then.

[identity profile] reaccepts.livejournal.com 2011-09-08 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's not so bad for a little while, but after a few weeks, it does tend to get old.

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-08 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
That or I've just had bad luck with them, hehe.
onemoreattribute: (look down [ i can't help it ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-08 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
I guess if there was something to do it might not be so bad.
onemoreattribute: (and around [ when there was ])

[personal profile] onemoreattribute 2011-09-08 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
How many have you seen?
skillspanner: (Default)

[personal profile] skillspanner 2011-09-08 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, twenty, maybe?
