Dive 03 [Action / Video]

[manlymanly]

*Do you happen to be in Violet City today? If so, you may find yourself with Aoto sneaking up behind you as you walk around. What does he do once he gets behind you, you ask? Flip your skirt? Tickle you? Jump you? No no, it is something far far more childish.

He's sticking the mouth of his Remoraid up against your back while holding the water-type like a gun.*

Freeze! Keep your hands where I can see 'em.

[Video, an hour or two later]

Hey, does anybody know a good place in Violet to buy materials? A place for stuff like clothes and plush animals and... well, a good place to buy food too, I guess. Now that I have a good amount of cash I have a few projects I need to get started on!

...Sheryl? [ that seemed most likely given the description. ] That's none of your business!

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... next question!

If you're neutral with her... Does that mean you like them flat? *Yeah he is not at all serious about this anymore*

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

That's not what it means! [ and yet he seems to be getting more serious with each question. ]

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

Hey man, I won't judge! A real man should appreciate all shapes and sizes, but if you have a preference that's totally reasonable.

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

I... I don't have a preference! Why the hell are you even bringing this up!?

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... why not? It's completely normal for guys to talk about this! *He thinks.*

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

[ he had to admit that was sort of true. ] Usually not at gunpoint.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... oh, right. *LOWERING IT HA HA* In that case, we can now talk about it openly!

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

...you're really bad at this.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

--huh? Bad at what?

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

I don't even know anymore! What were you trying to pull? A stick up? An interrogation? ...some goofy prank?

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

Er... I was going for the last one?

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

[ and alto finally turns around, since it seems like the stick up portion is at least over. ]

You haven't been going around doing this to multiple people, have you?

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... uh. A few?

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

[ groan. ]

I hope none of them took you seriously.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... most of them didn't?

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

Which means some did.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well... Everyone is in one piece, so that's what matters!

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

Someone could file charges against you, you know. I'm pretty sure even for a "joke", that's a crime.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

--seriously?! Even though I didn't fire a single blast of water aside from at Finnel?!

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

Threatening someone, even if you're joking, can be taken pretty seriously.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... it wasn't even much of a threat... I mean, if they stopped to think about it, there's no way I could really have a gun, right?

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

People don't usually think rationally when someone's pointing a gun at them. er, or pretending to.

[action]

[manlymanly.livejournal.com]

... even though you say that, most of the people I snuck up on didn't freak out...

[action]

[aerialist.livejournal.com]

...you were too obvious. You need to be harsher if you want to really sell it.
