[2nd Scene] [Action for Cherrygrove]

[This is a joint post between Ritz and Kuja; replies will come from either or both, if there’s a preference just specify in subject line!]

[The Cherrygrove Pokémon center is going to get an Entrance, courtesy of two certain new arrivals to Johto who’ve been stranded on Route 29, delayed by the storms and water swarms, and are now very much not their usual selves – cleaning supplies have run out, the weather has had a nice laugh at their otherwise vaguely decent camping setup, and they both look a bit more dirty, frazzled, and ragged than usual; Kuja’s changed out of his usual armor and silks are stained, although not as much as they probably should be, and is now wearing although he does seem in weirdly better shape than Ritz by this point.]

Oh sweet civilization, how beautiful you are – I think we’ve discovered a wondrous palace-

BATH. NOW.

[That small exchange is all that’s overheard before there’s doors shutting and they become shameless mooches on the showers. It may be nearly impossible to interrupt this agenda.]

[A while later, Kuja’s the first one out, still fussing a little at his one change of clothes, but at least in a less “obstruct my path and die” mood visibly -]

AAAAUUUGHHHH!!!!!

[Although apparently the same can’t be said of Ritz, who has her hair in a towel as she emerges and an epic Scowl of Death.]

[Ritz's hair does not seem to take dye very well at all, and given how long they were out between towns, Ritz's hair finally gave up the dye when she got it clean. And now she is sulking and wearing... the exact same outfit as Kuja, actually.]

Everything all right?

[Sorry, he caught that from where he's been working to build up some reserves, and he can't help a muffled laugh]

I can't imagine how you guys're gonna survive traveling to Violet.

Hopefully with less random torrential rainstorms. And a proper tent.

I've survived worse. [If looks could set things on fire, Ritz's pokegear would be a burning wreck right now.]

Finally wore out? []

Basically, yes... it's just been a rough trip, and the storm hardly helped.

Sleeping under the stars isn't half bad, if the weather allows.

Guessing you're not the type to pitch tents, huh?

[That silence just confirms it. She's just going to fuss at her stuff and not say anything.]

[video]

[identity profile] heartsteal.livejournal.com 2011-06-03 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
A lotta people here have, from what I've heard.

[Hey now, that doesn't suit you, little miss. He's done chuckling now, really]

Still, you guys sounded like you'd been through hell.

I learned my skills from the Viera. If I had half of my supplies on me we wouldn't have been so bad off. [She's practically growling, and it has very little to do with you. You're just a convenient target.]

I haven't had to in the past, but I wouldn't be averse to it now -

We'd just need to acquire a tent first. [] The beginning supplies don't exactly include much for inclement weather.

Viera? Don't think I've ever heard of 'em.

[He's hardly thwarted by grumpy girls. After all, he sure hasn't been deterred from hassling Lightning]

Why not consider it a challenge though?

They're bunny-women. They live and breathe wilderness. My clan slept in the woods more than we stayed at inns.

I don't think it'd look bad on you at all left natural, really. []

[Ritz is making an epic sort of face.] And you understand being called a granny by every idiot who thinks it's clever? You get your mother looking at you like- like-- [Ritz is making a frustrated and inarticulate noise in the back of her throat and laying out her stuff to organize it and give her something to do.]

I see, so they were your family?

[] Ah - my apologies; where I'm from, it's common to be dealing with dogs and rats as often as anything, and that color of hair isn't entirely unheard of - it would've hardly drawn a second glance.

[] ...From some of those I've spoken to on the Gear, I don't think it's that unusual a sight here, either.

Sort of, I guess? We were pretty close as far as clans go, anyway. Usually clans in the dream-Ivalice are more like a group that fights together, hunting monsters and treasure.

Yeah, I guess Squall and I benefited from sticking around Newbie Town longer than most while Cloud was on the mend.

[And there's a pause before ding! Kuja's been transferred some funds for his account]

Should help with some supplies.

[He was saving up with purpose, y'see]

Adventurers then? Sounds like that's gotta be interesting.

[identity profile] usedfeint.livejournal.com 2011-06-03 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Ritz is still glaring at her stuff. Maybe if she stares it down bad enough she can make decent camping supplies appear.] That doesn't make it any less--

[Ritz shakes her head.] You might be fine with it. I'm not.

[video]

[identity profile] usedfeint.livejournal.com 2011-06-03 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
It was a lot of fun. It actually has a lot in common with here! I mean, Kuja and I are already sort of a clan, even if it is a really small one.

Every team starts somewhere, right? And hey, I came back this far to meet up with you guys.

[]

It might be possible to re-dye it; I imagine the stores here would have something that could be used.
