Day 19 - Video/Text/Action for Goldenrod [Not Fourth Wall]

[seasaltkeys]

[The video is looking out at the sky, but part of the street and some buildings can be seen. It doesn't take long to figure out that you're up high. The roof of the Goldenrod City department store to be exact. Roxas has just finished his shift and is enjoying the sunset. A few notes in text appear on the screen]

-I made it to Goldenrod City. It's really big here, but I kind of like it.

-Olette evolved in Meganium. She's really big now. Do all pokemon get bigger when they evolve?

-I'm staying at the inn. It's nice. Having my own room.

-Uh, Kisa, my Growlithe hatched. Thank you, again.

[pause]

I wish I'd remembered to bring some ice cream. That would have been the icing on the cake.

I had a weird dream on the weekend. I got to see [hestitation] friends. From home. It was - I wish he - they could have stayed.

Caprice actually got a bit smaller when she evolved.

And maybe your friend'll show up. In the meantime, you know you've got friends here too, right?

[Best be expecting a letter, Roxas]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

How much smaller? What kind of pokemon is she?

And yeah, I know. [Pause, thinks about saying more, but Ven probably wouldn't get it]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

She's a Gengar! As a Haunter she was pretty big, but she definitely shrank enough for me to notice.

[Should try opening up to folks sometime, Roxas]

I'll hope he gets here though, I missed Terra and Aqua too.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

So, Haunter are smaller than Gengar?

[Don't want to]

Yeah, so do I. Although, he said he might not be able to...

[ some poor soul finally got out of the Ice Path, but has a bit of a fever, so don't mind her flushed face. If anything, she looks happy to see him. So happy she could speak! ]

R-really...? I-I'm... happy I could help...

[ pause for a loli sneeze. ]

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he's really cute.

You can talk now?

[video]

[biteisbigger.livejournal.com]

[ she nods, though really, it's a work in progress. It's still a little hard. ]

I-I'm sorry... for not saying anything before.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

It's alright. I could understand you, and there's nothing wrong with being quiet.

I also had a strange dream this weekend. But for all its strangeness, it was a very nice dream.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

I was glad to see them. Even if it was just a dream.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Could this be like two months ago? Pokémon making use of our dreams, in a more peaceful fashion this time?

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Maybe, although I think they'd be more obvious, if it was.

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

You should have brought some ice cream with you before you came up.

[There's a long silence that follows, where she contemplates mentioning her own "dreams", but she decides against it. Too many trolls.]

[voice]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I guess I wasn't really thinking.

[voice]

[cagedstar.livejournal.com]

Be careful on the roof though.

... if you mean by "he", do you mean Axel?

[voice]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[There's a nod even though you can't hear it. He won't fall.]

Yeah. Axel was here. We got to eat ice cream, like we used to.

Roxas...

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

....hi Minnie.

... It's good to see you doing all right.

Congratulations on your pokemon evolving and hatching, Roxas. It's good to see you are doing okay.

[She read the last part of the message and decides to type.]

It sounds like you had a nice dream. Dreaming about friends especially the ones that aren't here is nice to have. Don't lose hope. I'm sure they will find their way to Johto. You just need to be a little more patient.

[She's trying to help him feel better.]

[Text]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Aerith.

Yeah, I hope so. I'd like to talk more. [pause] I met your mom in the dream to. I don't know how that works though.

[Text]

[radiantxsmile.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I know they will someday come.

[However, she couldn't help feel a bit surprised at the part about her mother being part of his dream because she isn't sure what to say, but she couldn't help feel curious.]

Hm, that's a bit odd. How did my mother look like in your dream?

[Sora's not really the texting type, but here's one from him popping up on Roxas' 'gear.]

Godenrod's nice, huh?

Even if your friends don't come to Johto, you'll see them again one day.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[Slight pause]

Yeah, it is. It reminds me of...where I was before.

I hope so.

The world you're from, you mean?

There's no need for hope. I know you'll see them.
