You. Guys. Are. AWESOME!

[Yep, a certain derp found his presents after waking up from a much-needed nap. His journey to Goldenrod was a long and tiring one, but he managed to make to Goldenrod in time for Christmas with Iris and Barney.

He's sitting around a pile of presents, even wearing a few of them! His egg is in his lap, and his Pokemon are curled up around the presents, except for Onix who is much too big to fit in the room.]

This is the best Christmas I've had in a while! All these awesome presents-I hope you guys liked liked yours from me by the way-and getting to Goldenrod in time...this is definitely the life.

[His eyes light up, remembering what he really wanted to say.]

Hey! Does Goldenrod have a bar? We should hang out there sometime if they do! Heck, I'm even up for doing it tonight. I think all of us could use a little R&R, if you know what I mean. Get back to me if you're up for that.

Merry Christmas, guys!

[[OOC: Sorry this is so late. I got really busy the last three days. I'll be going back to backtag other Christmas posts after this.

Here are the gifts Larry sent out:

Everyone who he's interacted with and at least knows the name of got a colored sketch of themself and their Pokemon (that Larry knows of anyway).

And with the little scraps of Pokedollars he had left, Larry got a few other gifts.
Phoenix got a snazzy black belt to clip his Pokeballs to.
Edgey got a shiny Fire Stone. Larry doesn't know if he ever intends to evolve Pess, but hey.
Iris got a pretty necklace ~~and a mistletoe~~.
Barney will be getting free drinks at the bar if there is one.
Heather got a box of delicious chocolates shaped like Pokeballs.
And to his other friends, well. Larry intends to find a way to make some more money to make up his lack of gifts other than the sketch. The bum needs a job.

Lastly, here's a little pic I drew up for Christmas. Click for the full thing.

Merry Belated Christmas, guys! ♥]]

[[ OOC; FIRE STONE. THIS IS MILES' THIRD ONE NOW. ]]

[Let him turn on the Pokégear to reply to you, Larry, as he tries to shove the two extra stones in the bag he sprayed with Repel, his Growlithe Pip eying them like B[ as he does. In the background, there's a huge Arcanine dozing on the floor.]

-- Merry Christmas, Larry.

[[OOC: H-HE CAN ADD IT TO THE COLLECTION. ;; Leave it to Larry to buy the same gift as other people?]]

[Staaaring at the Arcanine and not noticing the extra Fire Stones.] Wow, you sure used that stone fast.

[[ OOC; HE'LL SAVE IT FOR A FURTHER DATE. It's okay. It's better than the twenty people giving Miles hot chocolate or every person in Johto giving Apollo a red scarf. ORIGINALITY IS OVERRATED ANYWAY.]]

I didn't. [Holding up the bag.] That was the stone Phoenix bought for her, she dug it up while I wasn't looking.

[[OOC: I'm still laughing at the scarf thing.]]

... Oh. Whoops. Sorry for the extra then. But hey, it's not a bad thing to have extra stones. I've still got a Moon Stone from forever ago.

[He pauses.] Did you ever try to lead Pess through a door after she evolved? I bet that would be hilarious to watch.

[[ OOC; I couldn't stop laughing after I saw the fifth one. I kept imagining the poor guy swimming in a sea of scarves.. ]]

It's all right. I'm sure I'll use it sometime -- and no, I haven't. I know she wouldn't fit, so..

[[OOC: Apollo's neck will never be cold. Ever. Again.]]

Yeah...I definitely wouldn't try it with Onix. She's probably take the wall out.

Oh yeah! The egg finally hatched. [He holds up the tiny Growlithe who was trying to sleep nearby. Thanks Larry. >:C] Figured you and Pess would want to know that no freak accidents happened.

[[ OOC; And now he has extra ones to keep his forehead warm with, too! :D ]]

-- Oh! That's good to he--fhasdlfhldskajhfglkadsjgh---!

[And then Miles disappears off the side of the bed as Pip, realizing that OH MY GOD IS THAT HIS SIBLING HFLSDKAJFHDSF MOVE OUT OF THE WAY TRAINER, headbutts Miles with all his eight-inch mightiness and rushes up to the Gear, barking excitedly!

OMG OMG OMG SIBLING. :DDDD ]

[[OOC: Yeah! And maybe some of his Pokemon.]]

[Larry blinks a few times at Pip's reaction. Damn, that puppy got lively fast.

Larry's Growlithe yips lightly, still a bit groggy from the nap. Then she stares curiously at the screen. Why are you in a little box, sibling?]

[[ OOC; There are many uses to a scarf. :Db ]]

[Pip is very easily excited. He gives his sister a happy bark, his tail wagging a mile a second. Sister sister omg I'M ON TV THAT'S WHAT THIS LITTLE BOX IS]

_{[Because mun is incredibly lazy and hasn't made a list of gifts Heather got for everybody, yet-- she sent Larry a snazzy bow tie and a gigantic box of jelly-Caterpies.]}

Merry Christmas~!

Thanks for the candy!

_{[She'd gotten candy from a lot of people, but... dude. Why would she ever complain about getting a lot of candy?]}

[Now Larry can be cool like the Doctor!]

No prob!

[In reference to Heather's gift for him,] Dude, I'm going to have so many cool things to wear with the new suit I'm getting.

_{[THEY CAN BE BOWTIE BUDDIES.]}

Best thing about Christmas's new clothes and stuff.

Get anything else good?

Gotta agree. Money doesn't hurt either.

Uhhh, I got tickets to a restaurant! I gotta pick someone to go with...

_{[Iris comes into the room a few seconds after he ends the feed, peeking in shyly first to make sure it's alright for her to enter. As soon as she sees Larry has finished, she tiptoes into the room. She laughs when she sees him surrounded by all his presents.]}

Look at them all! You must know everyone in Johto Larry!

[Larry grins at the sight of Iris.]

Hah! Nah, I still got a ways to go there. But man, I definitely didn't expect to get this many presents!

_{[Iris giggles.]} I didn't expect to get so many either. There are so may nice people here!

...Did you mean what you said? About the...bars Larry?
