babel_hacker | Day 37 - [Video] | [Action] at Pewter

Never expected to end up on a museum’s roof during that craziness. And stuck there for a while.

[The camera shows movements, as Atsuro walks down the stairs in the museum to the lower floors. He turns his ‘Gear to show some of the exhibits, as well as his Clefairy looking at some of them, before turning the screen to his face.]

I take it most people end up somewhere else entirely? I went from Fuchsia to...Pewter, I think. I’ll check in a moment. [Ah, there’s the reception area.] Where did you guys end up in? You get bonus points if you have a funny story to go with it. Even if you don’t have a funny story, just tell me anyway. I’m curious.

[Is he forgetting something?]

Oh yeah. Today’s also my birthday! I’d probably eat out with my Pokemon later. [Give the birthday ~~boy~~ guy your birthday greetings! Asterisk runs over to him, giving her trainer a celebratory cry. Happy birthday, Atsuro!] Thanks, Asterisk.

...It’s kinda weird to think I’m twenty years old already... If I was back home right now, I would be attending college right now and getting ready to enter the workforce.

Lemme spring up another question, if you're home right now, what would you be doing at your current age?
-
[So at some point in the afternoon, a text post appear on the network.]

NAME: Atsuro Kihara
SEX: Male
AGE: 19 20
OCCUPATION: Trainer.
OFFERS: Company, weirdness, programming skills, being a good house husband
SEEKING: One person to date him. Guy or girl. At least near his age or looks like it. ~~Stupid trai~~ He needs to date someone.

Please respond if interested._

[Guess whose Porygon went inside the PokeGear...

Some time after that post went up, another text appear.]

Please ignore that post! My Porygon put it up, not me!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

YOU LIAR! I HOPE NO ONE EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER DATES YOU EVER! You said there was a wish! I played right into the 60,000s and someone informed me that there is indeed no wish! You lying liar with pants out of wire!

[Wow, way to break the chain of well wishes, Momo.

Atsuro stares at the text, before he cracks up. He's been wondering when she discover the cold, harsh truth. Too bad he's not the guy to break it to her, because he have fun messing with her.

Okay, okay, he can type now.]

Aw, but it's all in good fun!

And hey! Maybe there's someone out there who wouldn't mind dating me!

[Even if he doesn't expect anything to come out of this dating ad.]

No! It's not! You lied to me! I wasted hours of my life! I dominate 6 out of the top 7 spots for the top score in the entire region and three of those are pokémon world top five! [ she really wanted that wish.... ]

No one will ever date you! You're undatable! [ gasp! ]

Yeah, I think I saw those scores. [Whenever he feel like checking Robot Rapidash Attack.] But hey, you're one of the top players of the games now!

And hey! I'm not undatable!

I don't care! Scores mean nothing! I just wanted the Rapidash to finally have his wish! Yes! You are! You're ugly on the inside! You're mean and you wasted hours of my time! Days, even!

Alright, alright. I was a little mean by not telling you the whole story!

I'm sorry, so please forgive me?

[Times like these that he's glad Yuzu's not here. She'd probably join Momo's side and make it worse for him.]

Okay! But you better be honest with me from now on or else I will make sure your life here becomes very very difficult!

I will, promise!

[Well, he won't outright lie to her any more.]

So you can mark my words.

I'll be marking them all right! I have pokémon everywhere and they will find you.

[ this is actually true!! Go usually ineffective Zubats and Woobats... ]

And what do you have? A flock of Pidgeys?

[NOT...QUITE...]

Bats.

[ He's free to react at any time. But one word should explain all. ]

Zubats?

[Oh my god]

Yes. Zubats. [ And Woobats but Zubats seem to concern people more. ]

How many do you have?

Over twenty. [ Her roster is a mess tbh. ]

Don't you think that's too many Zubats? [While Atsuro wouldn't comment on how other people fill out their rosters that much...that's just too many bats.]

No? I use them to deliver messages that I can't say on the network. They also make for effective spies and battles sometimes.

Spies?

[Yeah, that stands out to me a lot.]

Yep! They're effective at tracking, travel and stealth! They're totally usable as spies!

There's so much I can ask about any of that.

Do I even want to know why you use them as spies in the first place?

Because they're stealthy and they're already everywhere! I mean, think about it, they're the perfect spies!

I can understand why you use them. But what do you do with that information you get?

I keep it and, if it's really helpful or something, I distribute it! Like, for example, I can have my zubats tell each and every pokémon they encounter that you're a lying liar who lies!

Hey! You don't have to go that far! What if I find a really neat Pokemon and want to catch it?

Why would I want a good pokémon to spend the rest of his stay in Johto here with a lying liar who lies?
