004 [video] [backdated to thursday night]

[failures]

[Phoenix's group might be wondering where the heck Larry went to. Well, here he is.

The feed is on, but anyone watching will see practically blackness. The faint outlines of trees can be seen, but not much else. However, one can hear the occasional cry of a Hoothoot and the music for Route 31, but mostly they'll just hear what sounds like Larry's teeth chattering.]

Uh...Nick? Maya? Pearl? G-G-Guys?

[The camera shakes violently for a moment, when suddenly Larry's face can (somewhat) be seen. He definitely looks like he doesn't do well in the dark. Alone. Why did he put his Pokemon back in their balls again?]

I th-think I got lost. H-Help?

[Getting lost on a route he's been on at least twice by now. Larry's got this. He's really only a few minutes away from Violet City, but he's Larry, so.

Suddenly, something appears on screen behind Larry. A Gastly, with a mischievous look in its eyes. Larry shudders, then spins around, but the Gastly had already disappeared. Only to appear next to him and give him a nice big lick on the cheek and disappear once again.

Yeah, that doesn't go over well with Larry. He lets out a scream, and drops the PokéGear. The feed cuts out as soon as the Gear hits the ground.]

Nah, just a little...freaked out.

Good plan...! If I could actually see where I came from.

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Try using the light from the pokegear. It's about as bright as a cell phone so it might help!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Hey, good idea!

[So he's gonna do that.]

Man, I hope the café's still open. I need something to wind down with after going through all that.

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Larry, I will make sure it stays open for you.

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Whoa, seriously?

You are awesome.

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Hey, anything for a bro.

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

[It might be hard to see, but he's totally grinning.]

Oh yeah, didja decide if you were gonna do the trainer thing yet?

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Y'know, I think might just do it. Until I can get a decent job anyway.

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

[That's what he wanted to hear!]

We should train sometime then!

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Yeah, totally! That'd be awesome. Like, when you get back to Violet or something.

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Aaand when it's actually daylight out.

[usedsuitup.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That'd be good to.
