5th flight [Text/ Action for travel buddies]

[tookthename]

A fighting tournament? Okay, I'm in. Seems unfair to make the pokemon do all the fighting.

So who else is planning on entering this thing?

Cause that's not exactly a fair fight, unless there's separate leagues or something.

[tookthename]

Yeah. Steve's my normal sparring buddy when he isn't all banged up, and I meet up with Yusuke whenever we're in the same town. Other than that just my morning workouts. What about you?

[tookthename]

Previous fighting tournaments or previous events? What else has there been?

[tookthename]

Afraid to get your ass handed to you by a girl? I promise I'll go easy on you if we have a match.

[eagletalons]

If there were other people I know in the tournament? I wouldn't even root for anyone.

[arrogantalloy]

A slant out of my pants.

[He writes her name the way she suggested with his finger over his shirt.]

See, you're coming out of my pants, feet first. Not that I mind at all, but hey seems a but indirect. Although.

[He rights down his shirt again using his reactor as an A instead of an O]

That could work.

You're entering a fighting tournament? [ Ooh, exciting. ] Good luck, Carol.

[tookthename]

That could work too. It'd look better as the O though. Otherwise it might look like Corol.

Sponsored events have so far been nothing but opportunities to compete in capture rates.

[lieutenantantichrist]

You were giving me shit for hitting a woman, and now you're mad I don't want to do that again?

Re: [video]

[tookthename]

Context is everything. You enter a fighting tournament to get hit and hit things in return. You don't wear a hair bow out to get assaulted by a random guy.

Re: [text]

[tookthename]

This sounds much better.

I'm Carol, by the way. Carol Danvers.

[tookthename]

Thanks, Serah. Are you going to be in town for the tournament?

[searched]

I'm not sure. Where... is it being held, exactly? [ Excuse her extreme newbie... ness. ]

Re: video;

[tookthename]

Goldenrod national park. It's not hard to get too.

[angerpoints]

Yeah, definitely. It's been a couple months since we last fought. You've been keeping up on your training, right?

Re: video;

[tookthename]

Yeah! It's been hard since Steve got injured, but I've kept up.

[angerpoints]

["Steve", huh? Yusuke's eyebrows lift a bit at that, but he doesn't ask about it right away - instead, he addresses the topic of training first, giving her a cheeky sort of grin as he says:]

Heh, glad to hear it. It'd suck if we had a rematch and I ended up laying you out within the first five minutes. The secondhand embarrassment alone'd probably ruin my day.

[Heh heh heh. Anyway, now that he's duly taken the piss out of her...]

So uh, who's Steve? I'm guessin' he's a friend of yours?

[Yusuke doubts she's talking about Lieutenant Blake's little pink dog.]

[arrogantalloy]

That's why we go with a serif font, and give the "a" The little hairstyle at the top and a flick at the bottom.

Simple. I thought you were a thinker?

[tookthename]

[She smirks. Trash talk with Yusuke is one of her favorite pass times]

You say that like you didn't eat more than a few mouthfuls of dirt last time.

He's a friend of mine from back home. Well, kinda. He's from an alternate version of my world where I either don't exist or he hasn't met me yet.

[She's rather talk to the dog than his trainer.]

[tookthename]

Okay, that could work.

Just because I'm smart doesn't mean I'm a graphic designer.

[angerpoints]

Oh. Well, that makes... sense...

[... says he, as he makes no attempt to disguise how little he understands how that's supposed to work. Geez, and he thought his time paradox-related problems were bad. At least all of the people who've shown up from his world actually know who he is...]

How'd he get injured?

video;

[tookthename]

No one really gets it, it's okay.

An Areodactyl attacked him. Not sure exactly what happened, but he was in pretty bad shape when we found him.

video;

[angerpoints]

Damn, I'll bet. I've got a friend from back home that got mauled by one of those things too, a couple months ago. I mean, he kinda brought it on himself, since the only reason why it attacked him in the first place was because he climbed up Sprout Tower and wrestled it outta the air like a dumbass, but yeah, he was pretty fucked up for a while afterwards.

[Seriously, it's a good thing that Yusuke here isn't squeamish when it comes to blood, because if he were, seeing Jin all torn up after his encounter with Riki probably would've made him pass the fuck out. As it is, the only reactions he'd had when he found him were horror and an incredulous (and, all things considered, very hypocritical) anger over how stupid he'd been. He might've given Jin a high five for surviving the ordeal once he'd gotten patched up, but you better believe that if that windy bastard pulls another stunt like that again and doesn't at least make sure to bring Yusuke along so that he can be on stand-by in the event that the situation goes awry, Yusuke is totally gonna correct the deficiency in his brain by punching him in the head. >:(]

[tookthename]

Let me guess, Jin?

[She recalls the convorsation she had with the hyperactive red-head. Sounds an awful lot like him.]
