Focus Punch [visual]

Morning, everyone. [You are greeted by a groggy and somewhat displeased Red. The black-haired one, not the one that arrived yesterday.

Sans Pikachu, surprisingly.]

So, did anyone else nearly trip over one of these on their way out this morning? [At "these", he holds up a... trick-or-treating bucket?]

[Though Lucas'd been here for a bit, settled down in Hurricos chasing down thieves with his Luxray, he hadn't exactly went out of his way to make contact with anyone.

... Even those he's seen that have Pokémon too. Hmph. Weirdo lookalikes, one of them probably hails from the parallel and balancing world of the other.

But candy. Ah, candy. Yes. He's got his own bucket in his lap, and there may be chocolate smudges on his face but he hasn't noticed it yet. He sees your displeased expression, Red. He sees it. And:]

If you don't want your candy, I would be happy to take it from you.

I'm more ticked that I nearly fell on my face as I was heading out the door this morning. But considering how it keeps filling back up, I'd be more than happy to let you have some.

[Good.

He was almost worried that that was a 'No, you can't have any' but all is well. Considering Lucas was planning on going around and ~~stealing~~ exhorting the candy himself. Through less than peaceful means.]

A wise decision. If you hear of anyone else that doesn't want their candy, I would be more than pleased to go around collecting it every morning, afternoon, and evening. [Oh, right. Ahem. Let him lay back, wipe his face off, and return. He's in a good mood.] My name is Lucas.

[He chuckles a bit.] I'll ask around and let them know about your generous offer.

Nice to meet you, Lucas. My name's Red.

And, like the Red from yesterday, I suppose you're also a Pokémon Trainer.

[That guy was too talkative for his own hammy tastes. Hmph.]

Are they strong?

Naturally.

[The question catches him slightly off-guard for a moment.] Well... I guess? We train a lot, but I don't exactly think about it much. It's not exactly all that important to me as long as they're happy, you know?

[Says the guy who played hermit on a mountain for three years because he couldn't find a challenging opponent.]

I didn't trip on it, but it was outside of my home too.

[Pichu and Eevee are on his shoulders eating a couple of the sweets.]

Huh. I wonder if everyone got them.

Maybe someone's been leaving them out for everyone?

That seems to be the case. Nice of whoever left 'em.

I agree.

[Pichu is reaching for another piece of candy, only for Enzan to gently grab her paw.] Pichu, don't eat too much of it.

[The yellow mouse pouts and makes a disappointed "Chu..." sound. Eevee subtly rolls his eyes.]

((Green is awake. He promises. Just... barely.))

I... haven't been up to check. ((He says, though he's slightly incoherent as he rubs at his eyes and grabs for his glasses.)) Give me a moment.

((The view shifts to show his side as he carries his gem with him to the door. A moment, then--)) Yeah. I have one too.

You think Leaf will want the candy?

She might. Although these things fill back up the moment you take your eyes off them, so...

... why? ((His voice is definitely exasperated as the view comes back to Green's face.)) Who needs that much candy?

[He shrugs.

... Before switching this to private.] Got some time to talk? [His tone and his expression are oddly serious for some reason...]

((His expression darkens, just slightly.)) Sure.

What do you want?

[Actually, she did trip on the bucket.

...but that's embarrassing to admit.]

It looks so full now... Um, I took out a lot of candy when I left this morning. [The early bird gets the worm! Or... The girl who can't get back to sleep, more like...] I wonder what they're for...

I guess it fills back up whenever you're not looking or something. [He grabs a piece of candy and starts unwrapping it.]

I dunno what they're for but... I guess it's a nice gift or something?

[Even she doesn't need that much candy...]

Maybe they're trying to fatten us up. Like in that story, with the siblings and the witch... [Hansel & Gretel.]

Well, it doesn't spill over if it's full, so maybe if we just leave it...

[But that story...] ... Ah, Hansel and Gretel, right?

That's right. [She always got the creeps from that tale!] If you eat a lot of sweets, do you get sweeter?

[Because Green must eat a lot of lemons to be so tart HA.]

Belladonna found one, yes. Maybe it's from the locals?

Edited 2013-10-02 13:38 (UTC)

Belladona?

Yeah, that's probably the case. You showed up not that long ago, right? Name's Red.

Belladonna.

[Chou points at the cheerful, bright blue dragonfly just above him.]

Yes, I haven't been here too long. It's a pleasure to meet you, Red-kun! I'm Chou.

[Hey, other Red. This Red is looking a bit more happier than you (for a guy who found out there's another him yesterday). Or more awake. Or both.]

I didn't even get a bucket. Candy?
