001- Video from Cherrygrove inn

[likerabbits]

[Well, Tulane's up to no good again. Bunny and Tooth have been buzzing around Cherrygrove trying to get used to this... human thing. Especially financially-- Bunny's been writing up numbers everywhere. Science had been his thing long ago and he certainly was no stranger to mathematics but hell if it didn't concern him a little; being human is taxing and he definitely prefers guarding them instead.

Tulane, however, is not being the most cooperative smeargle in the city. He's stolen Bun's pokégear again, and for a few seconds the feed is just a smeargle's mischievous face as he carts about the inn's room.

Until, of course, Bunny snatches him up, carries him upside-down under his arm, and looks into the video feed.]

Quick question.

[Shooting Tulane a look, Bunny decides to ignore the fact Tulane's sticking-out-tongue is definitely being aimed his way. Rude, Tulane.]

They all like this, or is there some sorta clue t' what these buggers are like?


[anyone at this inn right now is welcome to arrange to talk somewhere outside it or something /o/]

All I'm sayin' is, there are police around 'ere an' they can see ya. An' we ain't postin' bail for ya.

[He's teasing, but hey-- it wouldn't be Bunny otherwise, would it?]

[justanexpression]

Oh come on. Giant dragonfish. Who's gonna catch me?

[He'll be like the opposite of a ninja or something.]

[likerabbits]

Should I expect to ignore calls from ya next week or the week after?

[Oh, he knows you're going to end up in trouble.]

[justanexpression]

I can take care of myself just fine, thanks.

[Besides, who knows when Dingle will feel like evolving? Of course, everyone will know once he has evolved, so it evens out.]

[likerabbits]

[Bunny's quiet for a few moments, but nods.]

Good. Stay outta trouble.

[Scolding is just Bunny speak for 'call for help if you need us', okay. It's not like North is around to impart a fatherly blessing, anyhow.]

[justanexpression]

[Jack's never exactly been one for calling for help, though. Maybe being stuck here can help fix that a little. For now, he rolls his eyes.]

You sure you're in charge of Easter and not Mother's Day?

[likerabbits]

[The comment quiets Bunny for a few moments before he rolls his eyes right back at Jack, grumbling. He doesn't address it, however.]

If I don't get after ya, Tooth will.

[justanexpression]

...Did you seriously just 'wait till your father gets home' me? With TOOTH?

[Sorry, he's laughing now. With all that 'working together' stuff, he'd forgotten how much fun it is to tweak Bunny's ears instead. Well... metaphorically. At least in this case.

He's totally going to have to start addressing everything to them as 'Dear Mom and Dad.']

[likerabbits]

[This time, however, Bunny doesn't even bother getting mad. Jack's not the only one who likes playing jokes. Instead, he gives Tulane a look-- an 'I warned him, you heard me,' look.]

Nah, 's more of a... warning. I ain't gonna get after ya, but you're on the team now. Means Tooth'll be worryin' after ya and if you get in to trouble, well.

If ya thought North bein' mad was a bad thing, you've got another thing comin'. Just a bit of advice, Frostbite: don't worry a queen.

[justanexpression]

[Okay, that... that does make him pause, just for a second, while he tries to figure out if Bunny is serious or just pulling his leg.

Maybe, just for now, he'll err on the side of caution.]

Like there's anything to bother getting in trouble for here, anyway.

[likerabbits]

Better hope it stays that way.

[He's pulling your leg, Jack, but that doesn't mean he's not being completely honest.]

Got plans on what to do next?

[justanexpression]

[Not cool, Kangaroo.]

Keep going, I guess. I'm in Violet City right now, and I'll probably stay here for a while, at least until Dingle's more... talented.

[By which he means useful but that doesn't sound as nice. Back in the ball, Dingle.]
