ghostytrainer | prank #19 | video / action for Dave if he's in the hotel room.

[For once, there is no smile on John's face when he turns on the video feed. Instead there is a look of tired, barely-restrained panic on his face. Also unusual are the stacks of books surrounding him. Someone went to the library. Someone found every book they could on ghosts and legends.]

[Someone stayed up all night reading all those books, and it definitely shows.]

[Barely visible on the couch behind him is a lavender-clad body laid out on the couch. The face isn't visible, but to anyone who knows her, the clothes should be recognizable as those of Rose Lalonde.]

Has... [His voice is the tiniest bit shaky. He's really trying his hardest to stay calm here.] Anyone figured anything out yet? About the people who were taken, I mean? And how to get them back? I talked to a few people about it last night but...heh, it's a different day now, right? [There's a very forced, weak laugh.] I read every book I could find...but they aren't telling me anything more than the pokédex did.

[It's a little late for "don't look in their backs."]

So...yeah. If anyone knows something, I would appreciate it.

[He gives the camera once last slightly desperate look before clicking it off.]

It will be! Stranger things happen before this and we all still live, so yeah.

_[Beat] .. what happened to you?

Yeah. Rose and I have definitely survived stranger things than this back home.

And uh, I got a pretty good crack to the back of the head with a rock. I was unconscious for a while and lost a decent amount of blood. I'm kind of shocked that I didn't bleed out or something.

[He's....not 100% sure if that's possible. But he worries that it might have been. Regardless, it's still closer to death then he cares to tread.]
