017 [text/action for Goldenrod]

[failures]

[Anyone checking their 'Gear will find this lovely blinding message on the network:]

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

I hope you lovely ladies of Goldenrod enjoyed my humble gifts. ♥ If any of you single ladies are looking for a date today, Larry Butz is (shockingly) open! Drop me a line!

[... Yeah, Larry somehow managed to send every girl in Goldenrod flowers and a box of chocolate. Can this guy get any more desperate?

If anyone happens to see him at the festival, he'll be moping around. It's been years since he's been without a girlfriend on Valentine's Day and he's having a hard time coping. He's been struggling with the idea of asking someone out, but for once he's actually terrified of rejection.

Basically, Larry is being a desperate drama llama today.]

Urk--!

[He instantly straightens up. He wasn't expecting to be found so quick!]

H-Hey Iris! Didja like the gifts?

Oh Larry, they're wonderful! _{[She smiles.]} I was hoping I'd find you so I would be able to thank you for them.

[He grins sheepishly.]

Don't mention it. I figured since I don't have a girlfriend right now I might as well give all the ladies a little somethin'.

It was very sweet of you. I'm sure they were appreciated.

What are you doing all by yourself out here?

I can only hope!

Um... Not sure, really. I just went wherever my feet took me. I'm used to having plans on this day so it's been weird.

I'm positive! What sort of person would refuse such a nice gift?

Oh that's alright! I think not having plans is more exciting! That way, you'll be surprised!

[He could name a few back home, but he won't.]

I guess you're right. [A pause.] So... What've you been up to?

Well, nothing terribly exciting. I've just been enjoying this lovely festival. It seems everyone is just bursting with happiness! _{[She smiles.]}
