prank #21 | action for violet city/video


[Action for anywhere in Violet City; Around noon]


[Hello Violet city. Having a nice day? Say, have you ever seen a seven foot tall ghost before? No? Well today's your lucky day then, because there's one (a Dusknoir to be exact) floating down the street this very moment. Should you happen to be walking toward this lazily floating spectre, you might not notice anything odd at first. Though if you look at its "collar" you'll see a set of human hands grasping each side of it.]

[Strange.]

[If you stand still and continue watching, letting the ghost float past you, however, the hands will make sense as you will be greeted with the following sight:]




[Yes, this is apparently the Dusknoir equivalent of a piggyback ride, and John is having the time of his life...even though it really isn't moving any faster than he could walk on his own. In fact, it might actually be moving slower.]

[Approach? He'll just be floating around for a while and doesn't appear to be too terribly busy.]

[Video Transmission; some time later...probably about 30 minutes to an hour.]

[When the feed clicks on, the image is very dark. Like, really dark. The only thing you can actually, sort-of see is John's face. And that's only because the dim light of the pokegear screen is reflecting off of his face. It's causing some major glare issues with his glasses, so you can't really see his eyes. However, he has what is quite possibly the biggest, most excited, grin ever on his face.]

Hey, did anyone know that the zig-zag pattern on Dusknoir's body is actually some kind of mouth? [A stifled, giggling noise.] Guess where I am right now?

[The feed clicks off.]

((ooc: Since the second one can technically also be action, please specify which scenario you're doing if you're going the action route. Thanks! :D))

[He sees your flat face, Rose, and raises you one silly tongue-out.]

Somewhere being somewhere! Outside. In Violet City. If you want to know where exactly, you'll have to come find meeee~

[He's having way too much fun with this.]

[[And you're receiving a smirk in return.]]

You should be warned, John. I am a master at hide and seek.

[[With that, she shuts off her gear and slips on her shoes. Guile at her heels, she heads out the door. She will find you, John.]]

Video;

[Challenge accepted, Rose. Challenge accepted. John pries the ghost's jaws open, sticking his head out to look him in the "face".]

Elliot, we need to go hide! Rose is looking for us, meaning the game is afoot!

[Elliot nods. Inasmuch as a Dusknoir can nod, anyway, and John sticks his head back inside. He holds the mouth open though so that he can see where they're going and look for potential hiding spots. Three eyes are better than one, right?]

[And they're off! Still not moving all that fast but at least somewhat faster than before.]


...Elliot. You're going to have to go a little faster. Rose will find us no problem at this rate.



That's more like it! Ooo, quick, go that way! To the right. [And dodging around to the side of a house. Still moving though because this is hardly "hiding".]

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[[It's a bit of a wait for the elevator. She's in no rush. But once she's outside, she is quickly on the move.]]

Alright, Guile. Where do you think a giant Dusknoir with a kid inside him could hide?



That's for certain. And yet still they've already managed to allude us. [[Slowly perusing the town, she glances down at the Espeon by her side.]]

You will keep an eye out for them, won't you?



...You can just call him 'John' you know.



[[Sigh.]]

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Indeed, there are not many places that you can hide a seven foot ghost. And John is slowly becoming aware of this fact as they pass countless hiding places that would be perfect...for John by himself.]

[Well shit.]


Okay uh...just float up into that tree. We will just have to hope that the leaves give us enough cover and that she won't think to look up.

[And Elliot does so, hiding perfectly inside a random tree over by that lake behind the gym. Well...almost perfectly.]

[You know that little "halo" on top of a Dusknoir's head? yeah, that's very plainly sticking out of the top of the tree.]

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[[And unfortunately for you, John, both Rose and Guile are very observant. Giving each other a look, they casually make their way over to the tree, doing their best to be sneaky so he doesn't see them coming.

And then?

Then Rose starts climbing.

Living in a forest for your entire life has it's perks, and developing an ability to climb like a squirrel is certainly one of them.]]

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fortunately, John has once again closed the mouth and disappeared completely. He is confident that Rose probably won't find him for a while and he can't really see through the leaves anyway. So he's just going to chill inside his Duskfort.]

[And Elliot...well Elliot has one eye. It's safe to say he missed you too. He was probably looking in completely the wrong direction and haha, what is peripheral vision to a cyclops? Nonexistent, that's what.]

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[[Well after a few minutes of climbing, she waves to let Elliot know she's there before carefully opening that mouth, peering in through the small crack she made.]]

Boo.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Things John was expecting: not that.]

Ah!

[Sadly, it's not too dark in there for Rose to miss the fact that John just jumped a bit out of shock.]

Rose!

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[[Just going to open that mouth a little more and lean in a bit with a wave.]]

Salutations, John.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
You really weren't lying then, were you? You are good at this game! I thought it would take you much longer than that to find us.

[He doesn't look too upset though.]

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Would I ever lie to you? Though it's good to see you at least thought of hiding within a tree. A clever tactic, especially when pitted against those you wouldn't figure could climb them. I commend you.

[[Glancing around, then back out and down the tree, she offers John a smile.]]

May I come in?

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course you may! You're going to have to kinda...curl up a little though. There's not a ton of room in here but there should be enough for both of us. Oh, and Guile too. Heh...guess it's a good thing I let Casey stay in the hotel room. There definitely wouldn't be enough room for the four of us.

[He scoots over a little bit as Elliot opens his jaws to their full capacity to let Rose crawl inside.]

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[[And carefully she does, thanking Elliot on her way, before curling up inside with him. Guile happily hops into John's lap, giving his chin a lick.]]

Why thank you, John. And it's alright. I can make myself quite tiny when I want to.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[A giggle and a small "hey!" in response to Guile before scratching her behind the ears.]

Hey, Elliot, if it's not too much trouble, can you leave your mouth open a bit so we have some light? [The ghost obliges.] Thanks!

[Aaaand turning his attention back to Rose, one hand still lazily petting Guile.]

So how did you find us so fast?

[[Guile is just going to make an assortment of happy chitters and curl up.]]

Not too long. It was the antenna of Elliot's poking out above the tree that gave you away.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Blank stare.]

...dammit, was it really? No wonder.

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-03 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry to say.

[[Chuckling, she smiles.]]

But that's okay. Now I get to spend time with you in here.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
M-Mmm.. [A nod.] Yeah. And this is really nice so I'm not complaining.

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad. I would hate to be a bother.

[[Sighing, she wraps her arms around her legs and rests her chin on her knees, closing her eyes.]]

Thank you for allowing me to join you.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
You could never be a bother! And what did you think I was going to say? "No, go away?" You didn't really even have to ask...you could have just said "scoot over, I'm joining you," and that would have been okay with me.

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Well it's only polite to ask. And who knows? Perhaps this would be an occasion of "no girls allowed", hmm? An all boy Duskfort?

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
How old do you think I am? Five? And even if that were the case, it would be "no girls allowed except Rose," because I can't very well say no to my girlfriend now, can I? Besides, I like spending time with you!

Action;

[identity profile] usedtherapy.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[[Smiling again, she moves to sit next to him rather than somewhat across from him.]]

John, boys at the age of seventeen still do that. Though I'm glad I would be an exception. I was merely teasing you, however.

Action;

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-08-04 09:07 am (UTC)(link)
Even if you were just teasing, I felt that was something you needed to know.

[He gives her hand a quick sideways glance, debating with himself as to whether or not he should take it.]

So...what do you think?
