009 // Video (Action for Goldenrod)

[From the looks of things, Joker is somehow stuck in a tree. Also from the look of things, he fell in it.]

Well, that was a bit of a failure, far as things go.

So, any folks wanna suggest somethin' of the flyin' variety? Me and Torch gave it a try but, well, she's a bit too fond a goin' fast and doesn't care for the gloomy weather.


[Action]
[Anyone actually in Goldenrod and passing through the local park... Well, you can probably spot Joker still stuck in the tree. Every now and then he gives a bit of a wiggle, shifts to the one arm, looks down... and then apparently decides to stay stuck. The Charizard flapping about and giving dismissive snorts doesn't seem impressed.]

[Could you look any less uncool, trainer?]

Oh!

[HE'S SOUNDING LEGITIMATELY SURPRISED. So much so that introductions have left his brain.]

You put on the circus? [is he wording right, he doesn't know] I only just learned what that was, a while ago. I'll have to go to one soon. We don't have that where I'm from.

[pipers_son]

You won't believe how many people I've heard that sad fact from.

But no worries~. We put on shows once a month, and there's a flyin' service if you're in another town. Entertainment, food, games, we have it all!

Or at least enough of it. [He gives a teasing wink.]

[berkthorn]

Great. I'll probably be traveling, but a flying service isn't needed. Something tells me that wouldn't travel like Carmen and I travel.

[...to be fair, they're awfully insane when it comes to their flying.]

Give me a heads up, though, and I'll see of we can make it! It's in a Goldenrod, huh?

[He recognizes Joker's surroundings.]

[pipers_son]

Most a the time, yeah. Figure, middle of the country, big city... Good a place as any, yeah?

[berkthorn]

It's definitely a popular place. Haven't made my way back there yet, but I used to spend a lot of time in Goldenrod.

Has it been going well, there?

[He's still kind of picturing a Berk competition, and it's a weird combination with the city's high buildings.]

[pipers_son]

Yep! Goin' just as good as I hoped.

I might do a recruitment run again and see if that gets anythin'. I know there's a lotta talented folks about, Pokemon too.
