[Here's Joker this fine morning, twirling a Glacier Badge between his fingers while Rogue the Furret stays wrapped around his shoulders with some pleased chirping noises. He seems exhausted, although in a pleasant way. Someone clearly just got done with a Gym battle.]

I have ta say, I'll give it ta that Pryce... Clever old codger. Gave my lot a run for our money even with the strength difference. Guess it's true what they say about age and experience, eh?

[He finally stops toying with the badge, tucking it away and giving a grin to the camera. Rogue gets a ear scratch for his troubles.]

It seems like a shame ta leave right after that in such a nice little town like this! Anythin' interestin' ta see, for those who've passed through before? Or... [A thoughtful hum.] Wonder if I could make it ta Blackthorn real quick... Wouldn't mind finishin' things up.

Y-yeah, I should probably do that. [She just kind of offers him a sheepish grin.] I've been busy working, and I'm working up money for the ferry, I guess.

[A shake of the head.] No, I asked around a little, but no one had it. I'll have to get it myself.

Think it only works if ya have the badge for it... So it all works out in the end, I suppose!

You'll probably want ta save up for when it's a it fairer weather. I've traveled in worse type a conditions than these, but I know not all folks care for it.

[She lets out a tiny scoff.] I've traveled through worse weather then this. I'll be fine.

[The only problem... was...]

I-I just.... can't swim.

[Video]

[pipers_son]

...Well, that might be a small problem.

[No shit, Joker]

Y'know, Olivine is right opposite a Cianwood, and the gym there'll give ya Surf.

Could catch a whale. Big enough ta not have ta touch the water a bit.

Y-yeah.... [Suddenly looking a lot smaller and a lot less threatening. As a giant sword swinger, Veronica sank like a rock whenever she was in bodies of water larger then a bathtub.

She'd never thought she would have to swim; there were planes and boats and other things that did that for her. She hated this world.]

A... whale? You can catch those?

[Aren't there laws?]

[Welcome to Pokemon]

Yeah. Y'know... Them Wailords or what have ya.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Wailords....?

[....Blinkblink.]

O-oh! I think I remember seeing those in my Pokegear.

[Video]

[pipers_son]

Yeah! Use one a those, I bet ya would be fine, so long as ya didn't slip off.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

I'll, uh, try not to. [Thanks, Joker....]

[Gosh he's being helpful!!!!]

Y'know, can't imagine that would be too hard if ya had a flyin' or psychic type with ya, ta keep ya steady.

[Video]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

That's true... [though, with Ako, she might let her fall...]

I'll have to think up how I'm going to do this when I get there. Maybe I'll buy some water wings, too.

Can never be too prepared, eh?
