prank #38 | video/action for goldenrod
A: Video/Action for Goldenrod Hospital
[The Rotom’s face that appears when the feed flicks on isn’t so much IN the screen as it just plain IS the screen. Seems the little booger thought it would be funny to possess a Pokegear. The ghost laughs, sending a jumbled string of letters, 1s, and 0s across the screen because apparently the thing couldn't decide if it was speaking English or binary. A moment later, the face blips off the screen and turns to a view of a hospital room.]
[On the bed sits John, glasses-less and looking only half awake (at best) and more out of it than usual. But what’s really strange is the fact that instead of wearing a hospital gown or even one of his silly Pokemon shirts, he’s wearing this little number, complete with white tights and a matching hair bow stuck in his messier-than-usual hair. In a chair next to the bed sits Rose, wearing what is quite possibly the biggest shit-eating grin in the universe. Despite this, she somehow manages to keep her voice completely level and normal.]
Good morning, sweetheart. I see you are finally awake. How are you feeling, beautiful?
[John gives a sleepy grunt and rubs at his eyes.] Mmm...like death warmed over? Holy shit, I'm hungry...
Well, luckily for you the nurses want you to eat before we go anywhere, though that doesn't mean I can’t take you out later if you'd like, darling.
I would like that, yeah. But before anything, I need my glasses and also my legs feel weir-- are these tights? [Still mostly blind, his hands trail up his own legs, eventually reaching the edge of the dress, at which his expression deadpans and his voice goes flat.] I am wearing an absolutely ridiculous frilly dress right now, aren't I?
And if you are? [Where before her voice was pretty even, she can’t keep the hint of mischief and amusement from it now.]
You're broadcasting this, aren't you?
And if I am?
[At that, John turns to where he thinks Rose, and therefore the camera, is (really, he’s a little off, but the CameRotom moves a little to adjust for this error). Using both hands, he forms identical "v-for-victory" signs to frame his face, pulling the biggest, dorkiest, most painfully cheesy grin he can muster. He is pretty much straight from the mangas right now and his Prankster’s Gambit is plummeting.]
[...yet somehow, it seems impossible to read anything other than murderous intent from John right now.]
[The Rotom cackles and the feed ends for now. Though Tron's work is far from done here, he still has a few tricks up his non-existent sleeves.]
B: Action for Goldenrod City
[Much later in the afternoon, John and Rose can be found around Goldenrod. John’s still wearing the dress though now the ensemble is truly complete thanks to Rose’s makeup job. Rose herself has changed to "match" and is now sporting some swanky duds of her own (complete with thick black tights because damn it’s cold).Though John is clearly none too happy about this arrangement, he’s attempting to hold onto as much of his dignity as he can. He’s barely even scowling half the time!]
[First on their list is, predictably, to get John something to eat beyond hospital food. And Rose knows just the place for this: a cutesy, adorable little Pokemon-themed cafe. After that, they can be found wandering the city itself, inside the Department Store, or even in the Game Corner. Apparently, Rose intends to milk this punishment-prank for all it’s worth.]
((ooc: John's back from hiatus coma-land, responses may come from both.))

Well somehow I get the feeling that she had more in mind than just making my eyes pop. Anyway, I don't think we've met before. My name is John Egbert.
no subject
[ But she's not going to push him by teasing him further. She imagines he's gotten quite enough of that from... well, just about everybody else that has replied. ]
I'm Valeria. It's nice to meet you, John.
no subject
Oh! You wouldn't happen to be the same Valeria traveling with one Ms. Lalonde and Bro Strider, would you?
no subject
I am. I take it someone's been talking about me?
no subject
no subject
Well, I'm glad. I'd hate to think I've been poor company. Thank you for sharing that. I hope she wasn't too, ah... harsh with you?
[ Regarding his unique situation. She imagines there was a good bit of teasing had. Would probably bet on it, actually. ]
no subject
[ndurr.]
no subject
Your getup, John. And I meant 'harsh' more as... teasing.
no subject
Oh! Oh nah, not really. Haha. She just wanted to be sure that I keep the dress.
no subject
Somehow, I'm not surprised. I'm just not sure whether you should or shouldn't be worried.
no subject
Well, when it comes to Lalondes, it's always a good idea to worry just a liiiittle bit. Just as a safety precaution.
