17th treasure [video]

[Ah, such a lovely day this is. Seriously, it has everything needed for perfection: a wobbly video feed, a fluffy lime green afro taking up most of said feed, a Relicanth swiftly swimming away from said afro, and an original score -crashing waves, Eevee screams, the shouts of a hundred furious souls- that matches the action perfectly.]

Look at that fish go-

[For a man who has to deal with an Eevee screaming in his ear and digging his claws in his shoulder, Ash sounds much too gleeful. The image starts to turn around, shaking even more as it moves.]

-and look at those turtles follow!

[Ash also sounds much too cheerful for a man being pursued by dozens of angry Tirtougas. He might even sound like he's laughing.

...He is laughing. Oh hell.]

Looks like they're gaining on us. Afrodite, show them what we can do!

[Not that anyone else will get to see what exactly that is, because Evo chooses that moment to try and get away from this madness, hitting the Gear in the process.]

Really? Now, that's just tasteless.

Tasteless. Ha.

[He manages to be both amused and unamused at the same time. It's quite the feat.]

As you can surely imagine, she doesn't like those people very much.

[he does his best]

I should imagine not. Honestly, that's just ill-advised all around...

It's lucky she was little more than a baby at the time. These days, she'd freeze the offender solid and leave them to melt.

Really, in this world of all worlds, you'd think people would learn that taunting small, helpless-looking things is really only going to end up more trouble than it's worth.

Well, it's not like people die here. They can afford to make more stupid mistakes.

Honestly, I get the feeling that even if people did die when they were killed here, they'd still do the same thing.

...I'd like to think that the majority would know better.

Perhaps, but there would still be far too many who wouldn't.

That also probably applies to a lot of those who arrived here like us, you know.

It does, unfortunately. That's what brought it to mind.

Brought it to mind in general, or in specifics? Because I can think of a few of those.

...Admittedly, general, though I have to admit, I'm a bit curious as to who you're referring to.

There was this blonde woman in Goldenrod once. Absolutely terrified Sweet, for a few minutes.

Somehow, I'm not terribly surprised it was Goldenrod, to be perfectly honest.

Because the higher population density comes with a higher weirdo density?

Among other things, yes. I'll admit, I'm not terribly fond of the place in general.

Big polluted cities aren't for everyone. Places like Cherrygrove and Azalea also have their types.

Azalea actually is quite pleasant, I've found... though there isn't a decent drop of alcohol in the whole town.

And in the minds of many people, that's an inexcusable sin.

I wouldn't say it's inexcusable, certainly, but it's not particularly excusable, either. The place has enough other draws that I enjoyed my stay, but I certainly know I would have preferred alcohol that wasn't awful.

You'd think someone would open a decent bar to tap into that potential market, especially with the number of trainers and breeders travelling through.

I think that would require people here to actually think.

...I bet they would if alcohol was somehow Pokémon-related. With a grape Pokémon, maybe.

You wouldn't even need wine, I don't think --- just gimmicky Pokemon-themed cocktails.
