prank #37 | video

[ghostytrainer]

[When John clicks on the feed today, he's accompanied by not one, but two Lopunnies. The One of them (Casey, judging by the pink sweater) is half-cradling the other and stroking its head, occasionally making shhh'ing noises. A Shinx lays next to them, and in John's lap rests the head of the saddest looking shiny Gallade you'll ever see. John himself looks exhausted, though moreso in the emotional sense than the sense of needing to take a nap.]

[He stares at the screen blankly for a good minute before finally speaking, in a voice that sounds as dull and tired as he looks.]

Vriska Serket has gone back home. If any of her Pokemon found their way to you, please let me know. I want to make sure they're all accounted for. And if they did just...promise me that you will take good care of them.

[He falls silent again, looking as though there's more he wants to say. In the end, he can't figure out what to say and ends up tightening his grip on the (what appears to be) a piece of twine clenched in his right hand.]

That's all.

[Click.]

Dear boy, I'm sorry.

[islandshore]

Well, I wound up with her Eevee.

[Which he has no idea what to do with. Forty-eight Pokémon of his own, not to mention the others he's boarded at the TC...

Ah well, this isn't about him.]

Still, I'm sorry to hear that, John. Stuff like this is never easy.

[eclectical]

I didn't get any of her Pokémon, but... I'm sorry, John.

[roemance]

Vris is gone...?

[Luke hasn't been giving his Pokgear much attention since his trip to the hospital, but he's not going to ignore a message from John. Especially one that hits so close to home.]

...I'm sorry, John. Is there anything I can do?

I...believe I may have two? [ She never got the chance to actually see all of Vriska's pokemon, but she will pan over to Aerodactyl the...Aerodactyl and Lucky (2) the caterpie. Two two pretty much flew to find Aradia where she was training on route 34 just outside of Goldenrod, and although that was startling they don't seem intent on doing anything but following her around. Although Lucky seems to need more calming down than the Aerodactyl does, so she's sort of holding the caterpie now. ]

...Unless these are completely unrelated pokemon who decided to come and visit, I mean. [ Which seems unlikely.

She'll pause a moment before continuing. ] ...I'm sorry to hear she's gone.

[As with most things on the gear feed, Raven stares in silence for a while as she decides whether to say anything or not.

But there's a question in here that needs an answer.]

How...do you go home?

[Video]

[hoperaider]

Where are you?

[John, you are going to get a big hug from this guy and there ain't no stoppin' him.]

[She just had this sort of downtrodden look herself not too long ago, Poppop.]

John? Would you like to talk? [Well, she's asking, but Jane is hovering outside his door, other hand lifted in the start of a knock.]

[iownahoofbeast]

Ah. That is rather unfortunate news.

I do not believe I have acquired any of her Pokebeasts. I shall be certain to notify you if this changes in the immediate future.

[tentacletrainer]

[[She'd been out ordering dinner when John made the post, and her heart skipped a beat as she listened. As much as she wanted to go back right then, she had already ordered their food...and hey, maybe having some lunch might make him feel better.

Chinese made her feel better.

So she waited the five minutes for the food to cook and thanked the people behind the counter as she took the bags and left. Instead of going straight home, however, she took a quick detour to a Pokemon center to check her PC. Sure enough, she had two new additions to her boxes...

Sigh. Vriska, why did you have to do this?

It was straight home after that, and once inside the room she peeked into the living room first. If he wasn't there she could at least set the food down.]]

John?
