009 [ video / action for mahogany ]

[imthe_shit]

[ Snake's looking a little uncertain when the video feed starts. He's outside, a scarf around his neck with his usual coat on... No point in using the sneaking suit here, even if it DID insulate him a lot better from the cold. ]

So... Today's Valentine's Day, huh?

[ He looks very eager about it. That is to say not. In fact, sliming up his shoulder appears to be one of those... bloober things. ]

Do girls like these? They're cute, I guess, but they sure picked a hell of a day to appear on...

[ It looks at Snake, then presses itself against his cheek, to which he visibly grimaces. ]

...

Ugh.

[Aw, come on. It was a good one. 8C]

Well yeah, it is. But some girls get offended by that.

[He's convinced Rose would rip him a new one if he ever did that to her. Hence why he's had her Valentine's present done since before Christmas.]

[imthe_shit]

I guess... I've never really known what girls are into.

[ Rubs his head... and picks the Bloober off his shoulder, dropping it down next to him. ]

Except for the ones that were into guns.

[ghostytrainer]

Well you kinda hit it right on the head here. It's really more about what an individual girl is into than the fact that they're a girl.

Which...seems insultingly obvious to say but it really does make it easier to figure out what to get them as presents.

[imthe_shit]

... Hn, then I guess I should just stick to what I know.

[ Snake smirks. ] Not that I'm getting anyone anything. Not really into Valentine's.

[ghostytrainer]

...then why did you ask?

[HE THOUGHT HE WAS HELPING YOU OUT HERE, MAN. WHAT WAS THE POINT.]

[imthe_shit]

[ Taps his forehead. ]

... Just thinking aloud, I guess. Sorry.

[ghostytrainer]

It's okay! You don't have to apologize. I just thought maybe you needed help with a special lady friend or something.

[A beat.]

What about you, then? Are you going to keep one?

[imthe_shit]

I already caught the one that's been crawling on me... I just threw a ball at it and it seemed dopey enough to just sit inside of it.

They're sliming in some direction, but they don't seem too adamant about it. At least mine wasn't.

[ghostytrainer]

[John giggles.]

Yeah, I noticed that too. Though once I let some of my water types out to effectively play sprinkler system, they kinda seemed to forget about wherever it was they were going. At least for a little bit. Some of them eventually just kinda oozed off. Some of them still haven't left.

I kinda wonder where it is they're headed.

[imthe_shit]

Maybe they just want to cover Johto in a thick layer of goo as they make their way...

Seems to be a pretty effective scheme. Hard to do much of anything when everything you own is covered in the stuff.
