Search Three: [Video] / Action for Goldenrod

[Video: Hey Route! Have an awkwardly smiling Harry, he's standing outside a hotel. Lisa the Togepi is peaking out of the bag on his shoulder, looking around.]
 
I guess you can get used to anything. Or at least I'm getting used to camping anyway. Heather and I made it to Goldenrod. 
 
[Just looking around]
 
....I guess it is true they paint every building the same colour. ...
 
Ah, well. I'd better go look around a bit so I don't get lost. 

[Action:

Harry Mason is off on an adventure. And by adventure I mean he's exploring Goldenrod. 

You can find him looking around a few places in the town. Stores mostly.  Why yes he does look lost.  ...is there a book store? He may be looking for something with books. Or feel free to find him in front of the hotel. ]

[Well of course Heather wouldn't let her dad go off to explore the city COMPLETELY alone! There's so much to show him!]

Dad. Dad. Dad. Look.

[Assuming she navigated him to some bookstore or other, she'll be waving a heavy hardcover novel around in front of his nose.]

They've got crappy serial bestsellers in this world, too!

Oh really?

[Amused smile as he tries to get her to stop waving it in front of him so he can see it.]

Are they all about Pokemon?

[And here is Otacon walking around outside the hotel, with a giant purple cobra (http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/c/cd/024Arbok.png) and kangaroo-sheep (http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/47/181Ampharos.png) at his side.]

[Okay that's going to get a curious look....giant snake. So by curious I mean nervous.

He isn't used to the monsters you don't need to shoot yet....]

[EVENTUALLY she holds it still for him to look at. It's got one of those typical covers where the author's name is bigger than the title and the illustration is some cryptic picture of a knife dripping blood.]

Totally.

I got this one for a friend of mine for Christmas-- it's about a detective chasing a serial killer, and the twist ending is that all the murder weapons are secretly the same Ditto.

That's a Pokemon that can turn into anything it wants.

[Yep, just chilling out here and sharing a couple sandwiches with the snake and kangasheepthing.]

[The eleven-foot snake decided to coil its tail around his waist and pick him up off the ground like he weighed nothing, but Otacon didn't exactly seem concerned. She was quite the clingy giant snake.]

Kotai, please put me down. I don't have any more food for you right now.

[.....yeah creepy. Oh wait...you look familiar. Harry walks over. Not too close though...creepy snake.]

...ah...hello?

[Best greeter ever.]

Hm?

[The Ampharos waddled over with a dorky smile on his face because aaaa new person I can has headpats? On the other hand, the Arbok seemed quite content to keep holding on to her unfazed trainer.]

Oh, hey. You're Heather's father, right?

[Action]

[identity profile] harryusedworry.livejournal.com 2011-05-08 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Tacky.

[Looking at the authors name of course. Harry is judging the covers okay. You've probably heard speeches like this before. It's supposed to be about the story, not the person writing it.]

.... wouldn't it be easier to just use a weapon?

[Wait.]

...So there are writers here?

[action]

[identity profile] harryusedworry.livejournal.com 2011-05-08 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. Harry Mason. I think we talked before.

[Okay sheep thing he's alright with. Sorta. The Togepi in his back pack makes some small noises. Oh hey, new friend right?]

[action]

[identity profile] philanthrotaku.livejournal.com 2011-05-08 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm Hal Emmerich--Otacon, whichever you want to call me. Kotai, could you please put me down?

[The Arbok finally let him go, while his Ampharos waved enthusiastically. NEW FRIENDS OMG.]

[Yes, she's heard this speech many times, and hearing it again makes her grin widely.]

Prob'ly, but I'm guessing that if the weapon had just been a weapon, it couldn't turn back into itself and escape from the place where they store all the vital evidence each time like it does in the book.

N'yeah, of course there are. Writing's kinda universal, isn't it?

...Hm...I suppose that does make sense.

[Just running through a few stories in his head.]

Oh? Good, I should hope so.

Oh... would you happen to be Heather's father?

It's nice to meet you. I just got here with Heather a few days ago.

[Harry eventually get's from Lisa's waving her arm in his face that she'd like to be let down now. So he'll place her on the ground so she can go say hello. Hi friend!]

[identity profile] harryusedworry.livejournal.com 2011-05-08 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that's me. Harry Mason.

It's great to finally meet you in person. I've heard a lot about you. O-oh, and these two are Kotai and Asimov.

[The Arbok tilted her head at the sound of her name, while Asimov was too busy investigating this funny little egg-shaped friend to care.]

How wonderful, we finally meet!

[She curtsies.]

My name is Minnie Mouse, and I am a friend of your daughter.

So Heathers been telling me.

Oh? Did you name him after the author?

[Writer senses go. And he indicates where the Togepi is jumping up and down. She likes to do that.]

This is Lisa.

.....

[Okay Harry may be a socially awkward writer with no life but...yeah he knows that name.]

....Minnie Mouse?

And you say you know Heather?

Let me guess, you know of me from 'cartoons'?

[identity profile] philanthrotaku.livejournal.com 2011-05-09 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, boy. I hope she didn't tell you anything too embarrassing about me.

Actually, yeah. He was a little electric-type sheep when I got him--probably should have named him Rick Deckard or something, but I liked how 'Asimov' sounded.

She's a Togepi, right? My best friend started with one of those.

I mean, MOST of the same jobs that exist back home exist around here, it's just... all... Pokemon-oriented.

[As if to demonstrate, she spreads her arms a little and just... gestures around them. Almost EVERYTHING has something to do with the animal life here-- and brightly-colored creatures of all shapes and sizes mingle with the bustling city crowds almost more numerously than leashed dogs do in the cities back home...]

But yeah, there's books here, so... SOMEONE'S gotta write 'em.

[ Miles knows Harry's here, because Heather told him so. He's currently cooped up in the Pokémon Center with a comatose best friend and their Pokémon, so Harry gets a response via video! ]

Have you ever been in a city like this before, Mr. Mason?

[Action]

[identity profile] harryusedworry.livejournal.com 2011-05-09 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Rather fixated on them aren't they.

[Rather amused by that.]

Something to look into for the future I suppose then.

[He can train pokemon and write...right?]
