[When the video flickers on, we have a Franziska smiling haughtily into the screen. She brushes a few stray strands of hair back from her eyes with a quick movement, and gestures to whatever that's holding the camera in a jerky motion

You got to Blackthorn City already, Miss Franziska? Wow!

And I remember that Goldenrod City had some TMs with ice moves in it... You can mail order one from the Poke Mart!

[AFTER CATCHING UP TO HER WARTORTLE she is still dripping but looking a good deal more pleasant.]

Blackthorn is not a particularly impressive city. However, the journey itself was not as difficult as I had envisioned.

And is that so? Thank you for your information, Cocona. Do you happen to know if there is a catalog available anywhere?

[photonsaber]

I'm pretty sure Blackthorn City has a Pokemart too, so I think you can place an order there and it'll come in two days! At least... that's how it worked in other cities besides Goldenrod. Maybe they have a book that lists all the TMs in it.

[recrimination]

That certainly sounds viable. However, I suppose my main concern is if the catalog itself is up-to-date with all of the current TMs available.

After all, I will not stand for anything than a complete source.

--ahhh!! Are... are you all right, Miss Franziska von Karma?! *The only person who will ask out of genuine worry? I hope not.*

[Probably 8Da;;

Aaaand after being put on hold for a few moments, the video feed returns to the sight of a drenched Franziska sitting on a wartortle's shell with a towel draped over her head. The wartortle is still chortling.

Despite looking very much like a drowned rat, she attempts to look reassured.]

Of course I am, Hayate. It is inconceivable that a little water will do me any harm.

After all, it is only water.

[combat_butler]

*sob poor Franny; AND LOOK HOW WORRIED HE LOOKS* --ah. That's good... But some Pokemon shoot it out really strong! So having one spray you like that could really hurt... Still, I'm glad it didn't injure you, just drench you...

[video]

[recrimination]

As I have said before, it is only water. For a pokemon master to be hurt by her own pokemon is simply inconceivable and beyond foolish.

[a pause, and she seems to exhale] However, I will agree that water pokemon can be formidable. When Wartortle is not participating in foolish parlour tricks, he is a formidable opponent on the battlefield.

[yattagarasu]

Whoa, Ms. von Karma! That's useful in the summer, but are you okay??

[video] /loves on!

[recrimination]

I fail to see how being drenched would be any more useful in the summer.

[yattagarasu]

You beat the heat with your very own water gun! And yours has personality!

[video]

[recrimination]

Is that so? Then I wish it has less personality.

[cynicizing]

[... Okay, so he can't hold back a couple of snickers.]

Looks like someone's vying for some attention.

[recrimination]

[Aaaand video feed opens to her sitting on the wartortle's shell. The turtle pokemon is... still snickering, sob why is this her life.

Have unamusement.]

If he wishes for attention so dearly, then I will double his daily regiment! This behaviour is entirely unacceptable.

[cynicizing]

... Geez, talk about harsh. You're way too serious, you know that?

[recrimination]

Only one who does not understand the meaning of discipline would say such a thing. However, I will not refute the fact that I am a serious person.

[bakaitoukid]

You're in Blackthorn City already?

[video]

[recrimination]

[after the whole shenanigans with the wartortle--]

Of course, as per my itinerary. It was only to be expected.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

How many badges do you have?

[video]

[recrimination]

None as of yet.
