video; action for Goldenrod

[Hello Jhoto. Here's a surprise video from Shiro's very own Haunter. Who has absconded with his 'gear and grins cheerfully into the screen. It leans back, holding up a party hat with the words "HAPPY ANNIVERSARY" scrawled on the side.]

[And then it turns, waggling the camera a little to show off its trainer, doing his best to avoid the heat by hunkering down in the shade of a big tree with his Aggron. Who's chewing on some bit of metal like a dog with a bone.]

[It swoops down, and drops the hat on Shiro's head, cackling.]

Hey-! Haunter-! [There's a brief flash of him snatching it off his head.] ... are you serious? No.

No speech. We're not celebrating -- it's just a day.

[WHAT A GRUMP. And then the feed ends.]

Are ya sure?

[Even as Joker says that, he starts to move along with his own Pokemon in tow.]

Want it ta be somethin' ya like and not that yer just agreein' ta.

I'm at the point where anything that isn't a protein bar or green jello sounds amazing, honestly.

[Shiro your food life is sad.]

...Mate, tell me that's not what you've been eatin' this whole time.

...

I wish I could?

Mate, I have got ta teach ya how ta cook properly while yer on the road. That's just a tragedy.

Braver beings in the universe have tried.

And caught fire.

....Mate, don't set fire ta yer teachers, that's bad.

It wasn't on purpose!

What do ya even cook that gets set on fire?

[He's trying hard not to laugh.]

Last time?

Instant noodles.

....Mate.

[Literally the most embarrassed shrug occurs.]

Hey, I said it was hopeless.

Still, now that ya say that, I kind of want ta see it. S'just putting hot water together with noodle, yeah?

You'd think so.

Apparently not.

Amazin'.

Well, the good news is that the cookin' will be done for us today- and here we are! [Finally giving Shiro personal space, Joker goes over to open the door for him.]

That is good news. I wouldn't want to subject you to anything else.

[He ducks his head a bit, as he enters, trying not to look as embarrassed at the courtesy as he feels.]

Well, when April comes around, ya can subject it ta me then.

[Laughing, he makes sure that seating themselves is fine before he hops over to a table.]

So, care for liquor, or not yer type of thing?

What happens in April?

[He'll just. Ease into a seat himself.]

Nah, I don't drink.

Then soda or some such it is~.

[Flipping through the menu, Joker considers his options.]

Anyway, April has April Fool's- kind of day meant for pranksters.

... Right.

I think I aggressively try to forget it happens.

Aw no- [He chuckles a little.] Have ya been picked on before?

You saw Haunter.

[Which probably answers that.]

Ha. Gotta find him a better target, mate. Or get a better sense of humor.

[That's certainly helped Joker out with some of his problem children, or so he likes to think.]

Anyway, know what ya want ta drink then if not liquor?
