[The camera for the pokegear opens to...A Sight. Down a small 'hall' with things like a woodstove and a sink at the side, can be seen a nice soft bed- or part of it. That's not what the Sight is.

The Sight...is the Lime Green. The Deep Purple. The White, even. It is a garish blend of blinding hues, and at the center of it on the bed is a handsome bean indeed.

They...match...]

Uuuuhuhuuuu...! It's here..! The caravan Dirk built for me..! I didn't say how to decorate, so I got a really nice surprise actually! [Carly adds as she pulls herself into view.] Look~ Baby Boo matches totally..!! I might get them a white ribbon now, I just have to honestly...

[How can she...see...]

...oh what the hell....

Carly, what is wrong with you? Did you get kicked in the head and lose your ability to see color?

Video

[fortuneglass]

Hehh!?

No way! Where I came from this would be a pretty high-fashion match you know! And besides it matched...

I haven't really added any decorations yet anyway, but look~! [Baby pumpkaboo...is on Display.] It's perfect~

wwWWBoooooo~!

Video

[thedifferencebetween]

Where you come from is wrong, kiddo! There is nothing high fashion about that.

I still can't believe you're a friggin hobo.

Video

[insidescoop]

I'm not a hobo I'm a camper there's a difference!

Honestly, I still have an actual... Apartment..! [she insists, pausing before she says anything incriminating.] This is just while I'm on the road!

And honestly it's worth it in my opinion- it's freezing out there...

Video

[sleepallthewayhome]

What's a caravan?

[Also wow, she's eight and those colours are sure a thing.]

Video

[insidescoop]

Oh oh oh!!

I'll show you, hang on...

[There's a bit of fussing as she leaves the thing- the door goes...Up rather than to the side, Thanks Dirk, but anyway.

Once they're outside it looks to be...some sort of small wagony trailer? Except wow, uh, Not really a lot of windows visible. Also the shingles from the roof go all the way down the front and back- including...the door...

Oh but as she moves around to the opposite side there's some sort of bench and harness deal.] Tadahh- it's basically a little camper that a pokemon can pull! It's uh...pretty simple, mind you. I mean I gotta have one of the pokemon power the electricity...or start the heat...or handle the water...

But that would be happening in a tent anyway really. This just means it's way warmer and handy for the roads right now~ [the toilet...in particular...]

Video

[sleepallthewayhome]

Oh wow!

That looks really useful. And someone made it for you?

Video

[insidescoop]

Yeah~

Or, well. It wasn't free obviously, I did pay them for it...but all I really knew was what I wanted from it, and who was going to be pulling! After that, he designed the whole thing, figured out how to keep everything light enough...

I think if you looked for it there would probably be people here who could build something like it too, but honestly I only wanted it because of the weather...it's so cold out there! I don't like having just a tent between me and that, it was bad enough in Ice Path!

Video

[sleepallthewayhome]

[She nods.]

Yeah. I try not to travel much in the winter. When I first got here it was January two years ago and I only had a sleeping bag and a fire pokemon. It was really, really cold.

[Also she had never seen snow before?? How did you survive Newt??? How???]

Do you think you'd be able to get your caravan through the Ice Path?

Video

[insidescoop]

Y'know...I don't think it would? I mean the cave itself is pretty big, but there were a lot of ladders in there!

It's alright though~ I'm not taking it that way- I'm in Kanto right now. First time, and that means lots of routes to travel! [She gives a bit of a whoop, already heading back inside. Chilly, chilly!]

It'll be a bit slower, but it's worth it... And now I can even take my time properly~ Just need to make sure I stock up on canned food and stuff.

[cyan_maid]

...Wow! That is, um.
That sure is a Look.
Does the exterior match?

TEXT my only lament is there was no image that best combined FeltAesthetic with DerseAesthetic :'[

[insidescoop]

Right??? He could have left it all blank but instead it feels like I just got one of those really ritzy trailers that people I interviewed would use back home...

Oh! It's just white on the outside actually. Probably going to get messy really fast but what can you do I guess...

[Text] OH GOD...

[cyan_maid]

Oh...!
Well!
Then, erm, perhaps...if you invite someone in, then they will be...pleasantly surprised? By the interior? They certainly won't be expecting it!

[insidescoop]

YEAH~

I'm getting the feeling this isn't high fashion for most people though.

[It wasn't you who spoiled it though don't worry Jane....you're Cool...]

[cyan_maid]

Er, well, no...perhaps not...
Then again, his sense of aesthetics is...
Uh...
It is what it is, and other people simply have to deal with it.

(That is startlingly indicative of his person in general, though.)

[breakyourlife]

A nice surprise...?

[Carly, are u sure?]

[insidescoop]

[yes]

Of course! How many can say their room matches the pokemon they just hatched!

And pumpkaboo aren't normally this colour either~ So it's Extra special!

[breakyourlife]

Aren't they? I thought Pokémon always looked pretty much the same?

[There's an offended "boof" from somewhere behind him, and an Arcanine's nose peeks into view. Steve reaches out to rub the snout affectionately.]

Not you, buddy. You're prime alpha material.

[insidescoop]

I dunno about you, but I'm pretty sure this baby pumpkin is a pretty big number of differences away from like...a dragon. Or a bird.

Anyway, pumpkins aside, these guys are...well! Normally orange!

One in this colour is reaaaaaaally rare~

[breakyourlife]

Yeah, but a Pidgey always looks like a Pidgey. I've never seen any that are bright pink or whatever.

I didn't know that could even happen.

[Yeah. That's why she said it's rare, Steve.]

[cyclonely]

[Whoa.]

Did you commission that? It seems like a really cool way to camp!

It is also pretty much the ugliest thing ever but everyone has already told you that. I guess at least you have the same complete lack of taste as Dirk, so everything worked out okay.

[insidescoop]

[Watch, as Carly's smile fades, and fades-]

You know there's such a thing called tact?

[cyclonely]

I said it was cool! Also it is not like I am even the first person to tell you the decor is eye-searing.

[insidescoop]

You're sure the first to say it like that!

You even insulted Dirk right in the middle of it! For a camper that he built! [Rude!]

[cyclonely]

Well, duh. The point is that he built it. That is why it is like, ironically awful on the inside as an irony surprise or whatever it is Striders say as an excuse for the weird and sometimes gross things they like.

[He shrugs, still looking unapologetic.]

It is a good camper! I bet it is really functional and works perfectly and I'm glad you and Dirk are able to enjoy looking at it together without going blind.
