prank #3 | video

[When the video feed clicks on, it is to a scene of John in his hotel room haphazardly throwing stuff into his bag. Clearly, he's not the one operating the pokégear. since he only has one pokémon with actual appendages, it's pretty obvious that Tripp the Pidgey is the cameraman at the moment.]

Okay...Vriska, Aradia, Gamzee, Eridan I don't feel like trying to track all four of you down so hopefully you'll all see this. Rose just made it to Cherrygrove so we're ready to go if you four--

[A semi-loud crack from a source somewhere off screen stops him mid sentence. He looks over his shoulder towards something that can't be seen from the current camera angle.]

Oh, no way.

[He drops his bag to the floor and walks off screen. It takes Tripp a minute to adjust the camera so that John's visible again, but once he manages it, it becomes obvious what distracted him: his buneary egg is hatching. It takes a few moments for the tiny creature to fully extricate itself from its egg, but when it does...]

OH MY GODDDDDDD!!!

[John picked up the small pokémon and proceeds to flip the fuck out. He is basically dancing around that room make strange unintelligible shrieking noises of joy. His Buneary doesn't seem to mind and is actually making happy little squeaky noises as well. There's no way half the inn isn't hearing this shit.]

[The video feed cuts off.]

[But then, he lol'd. :)]

Looks like you like your new teammate, huh?

[It takes him a few minutes to respond to you, Soul, but eventually he picks the pokégear up. You'll have to forgive him, he is beyond excited right now.]

Hey Soul! Yeah, I guess you could say that. I mean look at her!

[He holds her up right in front of the camera. Look how cute that face is Soul, just look.]

Heh; she is a pretty cute Pokemon. Gotta name for her yet?

[Questions will come in a sec, just gotta get into a conversation after all. B)]

Mm-hmm! I've known what I was going to name her since I bought the egg. Well, if she was a girl. Which the pokédex says she is, so I guess I lucked out. Her name is Casey!

[Don't ask Soul, for your own good do NOT ask.]

Casey's a boy name too, you know. Woulda lucked out either way!

[But. You don't even know what he wants to know! :(]

Hey, man --- can I ask you a couple questions? I mean, they're just a few.
Nothin' too big, eiher.

Yeah, but it wouldn't have worked if she was a boy. Because Cameron Poe's loving daughter Casey is...well just that. His daughter.

[Emphasis because you need to understand this Soul. It is of the UTMOST importance.]

What do you need to ask though? I'll try and answer the best I can.

It's about Jade, so it's nothing big.

'Cause, I mean... I'm planning on getting her stuff for Valentine's, you know?

[ ....
wait ---]

Not just her, of course. I mean, I'm gettin' stuff for like. Maka and the rest, too. Since, you know, they're girls, and it's Valentine's.
And... stuff.

Oh yeah...it's almost Valentine's Day isn't it? With everything that's happened I'd almost forgotten. So do you want to know what to get her or something? Is that what you're asking?

[Miracles do exist! John picked up on something!]

Yeah, exactly that, dude!

I mean, I know she likes gardening and cartoons and stuff, but... I dunno.
And buying her a cheesy stuffed animal seems...

Cheesy.

Hmm...well honestly, Jade's kind of hard to shop for.

But, not to sound cheesy or anything, she's the kind of girl who will appreciate anything you get her. Best thing to do is look around till you find just the right thing. Sorry if that wasn't any help, but that's really all I've got.

Nah, man, it's cool. I mean, if she's cool with anything I can get her... you know?

I just thought you'd know, since you're her brother and all.

[Shrug. Though he finds it kind of weird that. you. don't. really know exactly what to get her. :|a I mean, he hates Wes, but knows exactly what he would've gotten him...]

I guess I can understand why you'd think that. But I didn't even know she was my sister till a little while ago. So I guess we're really more like close friends who happen to be related.

Our family situation is kind of...complicated.

So I, uh... heard. But she didn't say anything about it being recent...

[Or he doesn't remember.]

... Huh.
Well -- I'm sure I'll find her somethin'.

.... You want me to get you anything?

[That was said with a goofy grin. Because Soul is being goofy. ~~He needs a good replacement for Black Star, man.~~]

Well, either way it took thirteen years for us to find out.

I'm sure you will. And...please tell me you're joking.

~~[Nerdiest. Black Star. Ever.]~~

....

[Sigh.]

Yeah, I am. Don't worry about it.

What? What was that sigh for?

Nothing.

Just kinda missing a friend is all.

[shrug, and he puts on a smile.] Don't worry about it, dude.

Dude, I'm sorry. I can imagine that's hard.

I'd be pretty upset if I was here and Dave wasn't. Though I'm sure he was fine without me, right?

[He's laughing, but it's hard to tell if he's laughing at himself or the absurdity of his statement.]

Yeah, kinda weird without'im.

... Pffft, Strider?
I can never tell with the dude. He's nothing but cool and shades, man.
Best poker face I've ever seen.

[It's cool, he's laughing too. BT]

Yeah, that's Dave for you.
So cool, am I right?
Hahaha!

[Slight sarcasm.]

Haha, definitely.

[right there with you. because. shades. really?]

You think he'd wear a matching headband if I told'im he'd be cool?

[pointing to his own, of course.]

You can try, but somehow I doubt he would. And even if he agreed, he just wouldn't be able to pull it off as well you. He'd just look silly.

...Don't tell him I said that.

[More laughing --- oh man.]

Dude, that'd be the whole point.

I need to get back at him for messin' with me, somehow!

Oh. Well now I feel stupid.

What'd he do to you?

Nah, man, it's cool. Don't feel stupid.

He just did that... trolling thing, or whatever.

[Back where he is from, people do not "troll" people. :|a]

I know he was just playing, but I still gotta get back at him.

[Not to mention he still has to get him back for that fight a looooong time ago.]
