voidedrogue | oo1; town of pallet.

so it occurs to me that it was prob super unnecessary to take the boat to kanto
i mean i thought hey don't pokemon games start in pallet town? i should go be there
purrincess agreed that a boat ride was an a+ choice
so i went and did the thing

(also p sure now this isn't a vivid dream go fig)

i could have stayed right in new bark town i guess and started there
i didn't break the game did i
fuck may have broke the bank a bit
2/3rds cash down
+ small chunk on all avail games for this gear thing

so kanto is where i will be either way

wait purrincess is an awful name nvm
i'll think of somethin better later

oh oh or wait i got an idea

[ After the text comes a video. The first five seconds are an absurdly close shot of Roxy's eyeballs, so uh. Enjoy that. View of the ferry walls as Roxy spins the pokégear around to show a Purrloin of impeccable class and stature. ]

I ask you, people of Pokéland, what would you name this gorgeous creature? She likes boat rides, clawing my things, and attempting to suffocate me in my sleep. Out of love, obv.

I reserve right to reject any names that are awful as fuck. I have already considered: Purrincess, Purry Herbert, and Purrity. Give me your best shot. [ Video ends with Roxy giving a thumbs up. Apparently she never thinks to introduce herself. ]

Birds are kinda noisy and got those beady eyes that look like they're both super dumb and super murderous.

[Davesprite would be so sad to hear you say that, Roxy.]

That depends on the bird. It's not like they're all pigeons or something. A good falcon is really an amazing thing.

[Not that she's an actual falconer or anything.]

Though I guess most of them are kind of vicious. But I like the birds of prey the best anyway.

[ Davesprite is the exception clearly. ]

I've never seen a falcon! Seagulls, sometimes, but that's about it.

I can agree with that, anything of prey just tends to be 10 times cooler automatically, y'know?

Yeah, it really does. They're stronger and usually smarter too. Well, they have to be, since their dinner actually tries to run away or fight back. Even a mouse is harder to catch than seeds or bread.

Moving targets are a big pain, it's true. I def wouldn't want to be on the menu for a bird of prey, legit. Birdy thing would prob take me down and peck me to death. Seeds are for dumb birds that are just like "aw yiss food on the ground I'll just eat that". Like, cute, but no initiative in getting food.

Though if I were a bird, I'd prob be a dumb seed eating bird. With super dumb bird thoughts like "seed! seed! peck peck!"

[Okay that gets a giggle.]

I'm pretty sure even a Pidgey has more complex thoughts than that. Though I can't say for sure about some of the city birds back home.

Pokémon are def different from, like, normal counterparts. Or at least I'd think so. Like, would a reg pigeon agree to battle and hang out in a tiny ball? Or even be super useful in battle? They're like on another wavelength.

True. Though the image of sending a swarm of pigeons to peck your enemies into submission is kind of amusing, isn't it?

Ha, yeah, that's a great image! I'd like to frame it, put it on my wall forever.

I suppose you could actually do that here if you wanted. Only the pigeons would be six feet tall.

[Probably an exaggeration but she's not going to bother looking up Pidgeot in the Pokedex.]

It wouldn't be the most balanced team though. And personally, I don't think any team's complete without at least one really huge, nasty-looking monster.

[Given that nearly her entire team consists of those, this is an unsurprising view for her to take.]

Giant frickin' pigeons. That'd scare me, legit.

Haha, very true! If you don't have something that makes people piss their pants, you ain't doing it right, really.

Exactly! See, you understand. Everyone's surprised at first when they see my team. "Why doesn't a girl like you have more cute little Pokemon?"

[She sniffs disdainfully at the very idea.]

Well, okay, that's mostly just true of the natives. I suppose they expect me to cater to their stereotypes or something. Well too bad for them.

Cute pokemon are great, but huge-ass badasses are so cool.

Screw stereotypes, gurl, that shit ain't for anyone. They can keep that stuff to themselves. Real humans don't work that way.
