4th pokeball | action

Characters: John Egbert, his Pokemon, and you!
Setting: Floors 100, 95, 82, and 48
Format: action because i'm feeling lazy right now
Summary: Block five seems like as good place as any to start with exploring the new floors. Later, it's John's first night at his new job as a gravekeeper.

Floor 100:
[When John begins his exploration and suddenly finds himself in the Other House, he's understandably confused. Did he somehow make it back to Johto? But why here of all places? He hadn't set foot inside the Other House since the Other Father had disappeared back in November.]

[He'll spend a good while walking through this floor, calling for "Dad", Rose, Dave, and Jade. It's not until he enters the music room and attempts to lay a hand on his piano that he realizes something is not quite right here. Of course it's a fucking illusion, what was he thinking? He kicks at the wall, expecting his foot to go through it, only to find out that that was actually the wall of the room itself.]


Ouch! Dammit!

Floor 95:
[John's still in kind of a bad mood thanks to the 100th floor as he continues his trek down through block five. Not even letting Chandel out of her ball seems to have been enough to cheer him up, though the little candle is trying her hardest. Upon reaching floor 95, however, his face lights up.]

Holy shit!! [He immediately moves away from the stairs and dives in. Chandel squeaks a little in protest at being left behind, zooming through the air after her master and balancing herself on top of one of the balls, looking around and waiting for John to resurface. The two will be on this floor for a good hour or two, this is just way too much fun.]

Floor 82:
[Later on in the afternoon, John can be found on the fifth block's other ballroom, a Haunter mask slapped on his face. Even Chandel is now sporting a tiny, intricate, sparkly purple mask. The two are sharing a few giggles over it, though John is a little bummed that he doesn't have anybody to dance with.]

Floor 48:
[John didn't remember ever signing up for a job but he wasn't really complaining about it. He kind of missed his days working as a medical assistant in the various Pokemon Centers of Johto and Kanto. Sure, Gravekeeper was nothing like that but it didn't sound like such a terrible job. Even if he wasn't getting paid for it, it was at least something to do to help pass the time.]

[So later on that night, John can be found in the graveyard along with his Litwick and Dusknoir. The former seems to be there to provide him with a little light as he cleans some of the graves, while the latter seems to be some kind of watch-ghost, keeping an eye out for any strange occurrences, people, or monsters. It may appear as though he has a third pokemon out as well, but upon closer inspection it's actually the Haunter on his shirt...apparently it glows in the dark.]

I think your Haunter is a little more badass than a gross ectoplasmic ghost blob-- he probably deserves way better than that, to be honest.

[#actual siblings]

...Maybe if he doesn't make too much trouble I'll consider giving him refuge from Casa de Egbert.

It's a dishonorable name! You're bringing dishonor on your family! Which I guess also sort of means me in a weird ectoplasmic-cross-universe kind of way, so I'm ashamed.

[#actual best siblings]

Maybe he causes trouble because he's lashing out over this horrible dishonor.

[MUSHU--]

Your half of the family is just about the biggest dishonor-mongering savages out there! Seriously, all that cake and gushes shit-- just about the disgrace of this already abominable cross-universal lineage. Paradoxspace doesn't even fucking know what it's doing thanks to Egbertian trickery.
reddeadvirtuoso: (Haha¸ cold and blood and...)

[The sad part is, Jade seemed to completely understand this.

Strider Stoicism be damned, because she couldn't help but let out a laugh.]


All of that shame just for one pan-universal Prankster's Gambit. I dunno whether to say you're fucking stupid or diabolically brilliant.

[Stupid Egberts and their stupid jokes geez.]

I dunno John, that's a dangerous line to be straddling there. You might end up getting splinched by space-time if you try and fuck with the balance like that.

[Excuse you, that was completely accurate the first time.]

Oh yeah, totally dangerous, right-- don't you live in the middle of the suburbs or something?

[SHUT UP.]

Roughing it in the wilds? Come on, there are ten year olds that probably dealt with more shit than you.

[Did catch a red gyarados and single-handedly stop a criminal organization, John.]
