prank #2 | video/action for cherrygrove

[ghostytrainer]

[A video feed clicks on revealing a picture of...the ground. A pair of bright red sneakers with flames on the side are also visible peeking out from under a pair of dark jeans. A Dunsparce crawls into frame and stares(?) up at the camera curiously(?).]

Okay I think this is on...uhm. Hi everyone! It's John, and I finally made it to Cherrygrove! Aradia showed me how to use the video function, so this time you can actually see me instead of me typing all this out. Isn't that great!?

[A Pidgey joins the Dunsparce on frame, also looking up at the camera with a look that can only be described as exasperated. Clearly it does not approve of this utter failure of a video.]

Yeah, this is great. Except...I don't really have much to say. The trip was pretty much uneventful. I caught a Pidgey though! I named him Tripp after Matthew McConaughey's character in Failure to Launch. You know, because he's a bird. Failure to Launch. Bird. Get it? Haha! Come over here Tripp so they can see you. Come on.

[The Pidgey gives John (who is still off-screen except for his shoes) an 'are you serious look' and doesn't move.]

Okay well it looks like he's feeling kind of camera shy right now. Same with Colonel Sassacre...what are you both doing down there anyway? Okay well whatever, that's really all I have to say at the moment. Vriska if you're still in Cherrygrove I guess I'll meet you at the inn or something. You did wait for me, right? Right?!

[The video feed clicks off.]

ACTION; imagine this icon is about 100x more surprised than this.

[Your sneaky-sneak ninja skills are so great that John is caught completely unawares. He jumps and drops his pokégear into the snow before spinning around wildly.]

Vriska?

>:3 kekekekekekekeke

[ Disregarding completely the fact that John's got no idea what Vriska looks like-- ]

Duh, who the fuck did you think it was?

Action;

[It was his best guess. John logic: says Jegus? It's a troll. IT'S FLAWLESS I TELL YOU.]

Haha! I was right! [He smiles widely and kind of stupidly claps his hands a few times.]

I'm glad you waited for me. I tried to get here as fast as I could, but my fastest just wasn't fast enough. [Dejected pout.]

Action;

[ If only you could see how lame you look right now! ]

I thought about leaving without you, John. I really did. But seeing as my other option would have been to travel with Gamzee and Eridan, even a grub would know that's not the best decision!

Action;

[Forever a lame-o.]

Well I'm glad you waited. Gamzee and Eridan are two of the other trolls right?

Action;

[ Sighs dramatically~ ]

Yeah. Count yourself fortunate that you haven't had the pleasure to know them.

Action;

If you say so. [Vriska knows best, after all.]

So...what now? [As he says this, his Dunsparce crawls up onto his head, clutching the forgotten pokègear in its mouth. Yeah I totally didn't forget about that. No siree, not me.]

Action;

[8luh8luh.livejournal.com]

I do! [ ... She does! ]

Well, I'm ready to get going, so you better be- [ But then she catches a glimpse of that Dunsparce- ]
Is that thing your pokemon?

Action; DAT DUNSPARCE

[usedwindything.livejournal.com]

Huh? Is what my- [he suddenly becomes aware of the weight on his head and reaches a hand up to see just what exactly Vriska is staring at. He touches the top of that scaly, yellow head and fells his way down its face until he reaches the pokégear, which he takes.]

Yeah, he is actually! Vriska, this is Colonel Sassacre. Sassacre, this is my friend Vriska.

[Sassacre just kind of...gives Vriska that same blank, close-eyed look he gives everything else. What goes on in that little yellow head of his will surely forever remain a mystery.]
