.002 | video; action for Goldenrod

[ He's been wandering about the city and it takes him a moment to think before he decides to settle himself in the Pokemon center. This has been on his mind though ever since he heard about the thing about people being turned human and it shows that he's been thinking. A lot. ]

I'm not sure if this is an obvious question but has anyone managed to find a hospital here for humans? I know we have a Pokemon center but I was wondering if there was somewhere that specialized in human treatment.

[ He won't say why just yet so without another word, he decides to just cut the feed. ]

Yes! There happens to be a nice one here, though it's Goldenrod so it's a bit tricky to find. Yusuke bothered the nurses into coming over to check on Keiko.

[That reminds her--]

She's awake, by the way!

You mean your friend? I'm glad to hear it. Is she alright?

[ So maybe it was like waking up after a long nap but... that's one hell of a nap. ]

About the hospital... I haven't really looked around Goldenrod yet so I'd appreciate any directions.

Ah, she's fine, same as always.

[It was, indeed, one hell of a nap and Yusuke was worried sick about her although he doesn't want to admit it (and Botan would probably get smacked upside the head if she mentioned that.)]

You're here? Then I can take you! [Why no, it doesn't occur to her that Yukio might want to go solo, who doesn't want a perky tour guide?] Where are you right now?

Oh. Good. I was starting to wonder if there were any other effects--

[ And suddenly the sudden eagerness is a little unexpected. ]

I... it's okay! I really don't want to be a bother. If you could point me in the right direction, I should be fine.

Nope, she's back to her normal friendly self, nice contrast to her delinquent boyfriend anyway.

[She doesn't get it.]

Bother? Absolutely not a bother, but if you're scared of me or something I suppose directions will have to suffice.

At least we know for sure that there aren't any permanent side effects...

[ Another pause, and staring. ]

Scared...? Ah, I'm sorry if I offended you. I just figured that it might take too much of your time. That's all.

[ oh god how do you girls. ]

Well sure, because of what I told you last time and all.

[She thinks it's because she said she's a shinigami.]

I have more free time than I can even handle considering my work back at home! But if you're sure, it's about [CENSORED FOR EXPLICIT DIRECTIONS BECAUSE WHO EVEN KNOWS] and there you have it.

[ okay. He can do this. He totally has this. He can girl. ]

Well, I can tell you straight out that you're probably the first shinigami I've ever really spoken to... but I think talking to death's the least of my worries right now.

[ Exhaling a bit. Okay. That wasn't so hard. C'mon. It's not like you're asking her out or anything, gosh. ]

If... it isn't a problem I'd appreciate being shown where the hospital is.

Oh? All right then, where are you staying right now? I'll come meet you.

Well, I'm at the Pokemon center right now.

[ Shifting the gear to show the counter where his pokeballs were being loaded. ]

We can meet up as soon as my team's back on its feet.

Edited (Geez what's up with the icon selector. B/) 2014-01-01 21:35 (UTC)

Works for me! I'll just pop on over there right now.

[...Botan that's not what he sai--]

See you there! [Click!]

[GODDAMMIT BOTAN.]

[ Gah! ]

Wait, Botan, I--

[ ...Ah well, best to just wait for her to come along. ]

[The PokeCenter is much easier to find than some hotel or another anyway, it's Goldenrod there's probably a ton of them.

So after the feed clicks off, Botan comes in swinging her bag for the lack of sleeves to swing around (modern clothing is weeeird). As usual, her Mismagius follows. But like a good little Pokemon, she spies Yukio first and alerts her trainer to where he is, to which Botan only waves hello.]

Hi!

[ She spots him first before he spots her. But he looks up from the counter where he's just picking up Airi. ]

I'll be right there!

[ Pocketing his other two pokeballs now before heading over. ]

Thanks for coming out to meet me.

Not a problem, I won't take up too much of your time I hope.

[Her eye is caught by the Pokeballs as Sumire takes a moment to circle around Yukio, inspecting him.]

Sumire, get back here. Have you expanded your collection since we last spoke?

[ Well fancy that. ]

Kind of. I heard the gym in Violet city was weak to electric types so I went ahead and got a Mareep to train up. She's a Flaafy now though... and Shiva just kind of found me.

[ Found his jerky rather. ]

Edited (Derp moment turn awaaaaaay) 2014-01-07 05:10 (UTC)

[Thankfully, Sumire decides to leave Yukio be without nipping at his ears or hair as she usually does.]

Flaaffy! Oh, so cute, have you named her yet? What's Shiva, then? Where did you find him?

[Whoa, Botan, too many questions at once, settle down.]

[ He has to hand it to her, being all enthusiastic and everything. So why not? He pulls out the pokeball, calling out his Flaffy. It sniffs around for a while before looking up at both Botan and Sumire, head tilting in the manner of a curious cat. ]

I've been toying with "Pikari". It's.. um... Pika and Hikari.

[ He's trying to be clever, okay? ]

Shiva's a Houndour. I was training Airi when he came around and tried to go for the beef jerky I had on me.

[She smiles, reaching into her pocket and pulling out a treat for Flaaffy to munch on.]

It's adorable, and I think it's perfect for her.

[ Ooh, treat! The flaafy looks up at Yukio as if asking if it was okay before giving out a little bleat and taking it from Botan. ]

I... it's not much, really. But thanks.

[It's at this point that Botan pats Yukio on the shoulder firmly, shaking her head.]

Ah, you're too modest, it's quite embarrassing to see. You could stand to be a little more relaxed about your personal accomplishments!

[ Oh gosh Botan stop that. ]

I'll... I'll try. I just don't like talking about myself very often, that's all.

Oh, I was the same way before I came here, but my friends taught me that there's nothing wrong with being open about yourself, particularly not with your friends.

[No, she'll never stop patting him on the shoulder when it's appropriate.]

Anyway! Shall we be off?

I think I saw one once hehe. But Mayushii hasn't gotten sick at all lately so she hasn't looked.

The fact that there's one around is all I needed to know.

If you don't mind my asking, where did you see it?

Umm, Goldenrod maybe Ecuteak? It's been a while for me.

Right. I'll make sure to look around once my Pokemon have been healed. Do you remember where in the city?

Oh! Somewhere... in the center of town. I don't think you could miss it, it's big, white, and has signs pointing to it.

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your help.

There sure is! Or at least, I know there's one in Goldenrod City. I've been there!

I'm the city right now. It's just that there seem to be Pokemon centers so easily accessible but you really can't say the same for somewhere that can treat humans.

Well, I suppose Pokemon need a lot more medical attention than people here, since they fight each other all the time.

I guess that makes sense but what about the trainers?

[ Slight hair ruffling here and a momentary frown. Once he gets himself tested out, he'll see about putting up some sort of clinic maybe. ]

Listen, I really appreciate you helping me out.

Edited (Dammit icons stop deselecting) 2013-12-21 20:38 (UTC)

Oh, don't worry about it! It's really stressful when you think you need help, but don't know where to find any. If you give me a minute, I'll send you a map so you'll know exactly where it is.

Oh. Well, thank you very much.

[ That was surprising. A really helpful kid this. ]

Ah, what's your name, by the way? Are you by yourself?

I'm Akira Ijyuin. It's nice to meet you!

I'm not really by myself. I'm sharing a place with quite a few people in the middle of Goldenrod City.

[At... Rocket HQ...]

That's good. It's probably better that you've got company instead of travelling alone.

[ Because really some saps might take advantage of this kid. ]

I'm Yukio Okumura, by the way. Pleased to meet you.

[He gives a strange sort of laugh at that. Is it really good?]

Well... it definitely keeps things interesting!

Here, I marked a map for you!

[A picture is attached, with one of the unmarked buildings on a tourist map highlighted. The elusive human hospital.]

Th... thanks!

[ Wow what a helpful kid. ]

I'll make sure to let you know when I find it.
