Video/Action - Blackthorn City

[lightningbearer]

*the video opens up to a nice shot of a few eggs neatly placed in a row. after a few seconds to allow viewers to get a good look at them, a voice can be heard*

If you want to buy one, talk to me.

*...and it ends at that; looks like Geddoe's as short and to the point as ever*


((There's still a woobat egg left, if anyone is interested!))

[Ah. It's him again. They never got around to introductions... in fact, they never really got anywhere past an exchange of a couple of words.

And what if he doesn't want to buy one?]

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*well, there's always the politely inquiring and then deciding not to buy after all method, but pffft that's for people with social skills.

more importantly, is he just staring with the 'gear recording, or does he have it off while he contemplates?*

Re: video

[aburame]

[Right. Polite inquiring. Let's give this a shot. And yes, he's been letting the gear record before now.]

Were they unexpected?

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*....oh boy, someone with arguably worse social skills than Geddoe \o/*

Yeah.

Re: video

[aburame]

[... Dude, he wasn't the one who just spat out a one word answer. But we'll see. He may be a pretty tough contender.]

What is there?

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*well, it was a yes or no question! If you wanted details you should have said so >_>*

Woobat and Oshawott.

*as far as he can tell, at least*

video

[aburame]

[These two need to take Communication 101, stat.]

Neither of which are bug type... [From what he knows, right?]

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*hey, nonverbal communication is still communication!*

They aren't. I only have one of that type.

*which thanks to egg groups means no change of it breeding in the foreseeable future...*

Re: video

[aburame]

[True, they've gotten this far as they are. And they've managed to beat their record time speaking as of... now!]

The species?

[He's always open to learn more about his type of choice.]

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*go them?*

Escavalier.

video

[aburame]

Not a name I am familiar with, then.

[You could go search it up, Shino...]

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

It doesn't seem to be very common.

video

[aburame]

[Hmm.]

From where?

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

National Park, north of Goldenrod City. I only saw them during the contest, though.

video

[aburame]

[Oh. He's listening.]

There is some kind of contest held at the National Park?

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*nods*

They called it the Bug-Catching Contest.

video

[aburame]

[ho shi- there's a contest for that?]

Most things of a competitive nature require some kind of quality to judge. [The most rare? Strongest? Size? Slow down, dude...]

[Politely:] ... Were you successful?

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

Second place.

video

[aburame]

[He... doesn't have much to say to that, only offering a nod of acknowledgement for Geddoe's answer.]

The information is appreciated. [Guess who's going to check out the next Bug Catching comp after this?]

I did not get your name before.

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

*whenever the next one is even held...*

Geddoe.

Re: video

[aburame]

Shino. [Returns the name in kind.]

Will you be attending the next one, if there is? [Whenever it is...] If so, there is a chance we may run into each other.

[H-he's already decided on going.]

Re: video

[lightningbearer]

Maybe. If I'm in the area, probably.

*since why pass up the chance at winning some extra cash for relatively minimal effort?*

Re: video

[aburame]

... Maybe, then.

[Shino couldn't care much about a cash prize, but rather the Pokemon-catching opportunity. Any money is just a bonus. Now that they've mostly been drawn to an end, he'll give Geddoe one last nod before switching off the feed.]
