[Wataru starts the feed with a wave, a beautiful Glaceon next to him.]

Hi! I just wanted to check in with everyone since I'm, um. Kind of back in Goldenrod again.

[He looks... sheepish.]

I ended up back here sometime during that weekend nobody remembers, and I forgot to tell everyone about it. So... yeah! I'll probably be sticking around until after the holidays if anybody wants to meet up. After that I'm going to finish getting all of the Johto badges and then go back to Kanto.

So, what about you guys? Are any of you going to be in Goldenrod for the rest of December? And how many of you are going to take on the Kanto gyms? I don't know when I'll finally be able to go, but it might be cool to meet up over there, too!

I'm gonna stay in Ecruteak for Christmas.

Otherwise I'd pop by and visit.

Oh... Then I'll have to--

[Wait. He probably shouldn't mention that.]

...Uhhh we'll have to... spend it without you... which won't be as fun.

[...Wow that was a really bad cover up. UM.]

Is there something going on in Ecruteak?
foolishwren: and it so bright its like NAAAAAAA SEBANYAAAAAAAAAAAAA (when you check your phone at 2 AM)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2011-12-24 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[... Brow raise.]

Hey, uh... I'm sure you guys'll survive.

[What're you plannin', kiddo.]

And no, not really. Just don't feel like lugging the whole gang on down through the snow to get to the city. Figured we'd have a quiet holiday and all that.

[Now that she had family in Johto, it changed the dynamic a little... no more Lone Wanderer Heather who went wherever she wanted with no regrets.]

[Nooooooothing...]

Oh, if you're with a bunch of others-- yeah, that makes sense. And you're right, Christmas gets a lot noisier in Johto than it ever did at home.
foolishwren: as i was, you shall be (Default)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2011-12-27 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, actually, it's a lot quieter here than it ever was at home... Christmas is kinda a big thing in America.

But that's sorta nice, you know?

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-28 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Right... It doesn't get celebrated as much back home in Japan.

Hey, what's it like in America? If it's even bigger than here...
foolishwren: as i was, you shall be (Default)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2011-12-28 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
Well... pretty much right after Halloween, the stores start putting Christmas decorations up... Christmas commercials start popping up all over the TV... people go nuts shopping for gifts...

[She shakes her head with a sort of wry grin.]

It's just all over the place.

Can't avoid it.

... Not gonna lie, though. I was always kinda fond of how stupidly ever-present it was.

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-28 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
...Wow. After hearing that, I'm not so sure I'd want to see it for myself...
foolishwren: as i was, you shall be (Default)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2011-12-29 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[That gets a laugh out of her.]

Hah! Don't really blame you. But it's not all bad.

Lots of good food and then on Christmas Eve people go singing carols door to door in the street... well, most people. Dad and I didn't really do it. We got some at the door a few times though.

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-30 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
People really do that? Singing carols?
foolishwren: what doesn't kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humor (well you know what they say...)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2011-12-31 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure do!

Or, well, they did it more when I was little, I guess. Or in the areas I lived in when I was little.
foolishwren: guess that makes me HOTTER than U (you're cooler than me??)

[personal profile] foolishwren 2012-01-03 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Depends on who was singin' 'em!

If I recall correctly, some of the neighbors when I was five or so were really good singers, but I, on the other hand, was referred to as 'Caterwauler'.

A nickname I'm still proud of.

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2012-01-04 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
...Caterwauler? That's... uh.

[He'll quietly make a mental note never to ask Heather to sing.]

Hey Wataru!

Since you're in Goldenrod, you think we could meet up on Christmas eve or something?

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! I should have time that day!

[identity profile] superrising.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
Great then.

As for your other question--- I'm definitely hitting them up. I just need two more badges in this place first.

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
That's the same as me! Which ones do you need? All I've got to get are the Glacier and Rising Badges.

[identity profile] superrising.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Those two, actually. They're the ones in Blackthorn and Ecruteak, right?

[identity profile] hasavision.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, it's Blackthorn and Mahogany. Ecruteak is the Fog Badge.

We'd still have to go the same way for them though, so wanna just travel together?

((OOC: ...It would figure I'd forget I have an edit button now.))

Oops, looks like I got my places mixed up.

And that's a good plan! It'll be easier too with two of us.
