003 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action for Ecruteak] (Backdated to early this morning)

[buckyouup]

[The feed opens very early, the camera half-obscured by a drooling mouth. It seems there was a certain delivery to the Ecruteak Pokemon Center not too long ago. The camera quickly dashes around the room, before doing a couple laps around a certain blonde-haired southerner passed out asleep in a chair. The camera comes close, before the sound of a loud bark sounds off, the 'gear falling to the floor. AJ stirs, and groggily reaches over to pat her faithful Growlithe on the head.]

...Good girl, Jessie. Go get some sleep now, okay? S'been a long trip...

((Tags can either come in now, or later, when she's gotten her rest.))

Not right now. But you were.

_{[He stands up properly, offers her a hand. He knows she can be stubborn and tries to consider this in his phrasing of words.]}

Here's a suggestion: how about we get you checked into the Inn? So you won't have to worry about it later.

[She tentatively takes his hand, helping herself up to her feet. She's not about to admit how exhausted she is, but she'll play along, if it'll make him happy.]

...Sounds nice. Mind leadin' the way?

[action]

[tapestodiane]

_{[Which is a win/win situation, isn't it?]}

It's just around the corner. Do you have all your things? And Jessie?

[She reaches to her side and lifts up her bag, tossing it around her shoulder, before putting two fingers to her lips and whistling. A few barks come from across the room as Jessie runs up, as happy and energetic as ever.]

I think that's everythin'.

_{[He leans down to pet Jessie for a short moment, before opening the Center doors and leading the way out. It really isn't far - and fairly pleasant, really, despite the drizzle.]}

[AJ follows behind him, bringing her hat down to keep the rain out of her eyes.]

Sorry I didn't warn ya I was comin' in to town.

[action]

[tapestodiane]

Think you need a warning, Applejack?

_{[He throws her a mild smile and takes a right turn.]}

I'm happy to see you in person. But I admit I am curious as to how you got here so quickly.

[action]

[She laughs awkwardly, scratching the back of her head.]

Well... with my friends so far away... I couldn't get my body t'stop movin'.

[action]

[tapestodiane]

_{[No wonder she'd be exhausted enough to pass out in a chair, then.]}

You're not used to being apart for too long, are you?

[action]

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

The six of us are inseparable! But I'm more worried about Fluttershy. Poor girl shouldn't have to have gone so long without seein' us...

[action]

[tapestodiane]

Yeah, that must have been quite an ordeal. She must have been happy to see you come back.

_{[The Inn sign is clearly visible now and he nods to indicate that that's where they're headed.]}

[action]

[She nods and continues to follow.]

She's the sweetest lil' filly you'll ever meet. I'll never let her go through that again.

[action]

[tapestodiane]

_{[He nods.]}

Here's hoping neither of you will have to.

_{[Because being without your friends is pretty hard. (And Coop should know, as the lone canon warrior he is.) But having gotten to the right building, he holds the door open for her.]}

[action]

[She smiles and tips her hat thankfully, stepping inside.]

I ain't gonna let it happen again.

[action]

[tapestodiane]

I believe you.

_{[He follows her inside and lets the door close behind him.]}

Now, this is where you'll want to stay. It's not too expensive but you might need to get a job at some point to pay for your room. A lot of places are willing to hire, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

[action]

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

It's right cozy. Sure beats sleepin' in the pokey-mon center.

[action]

[tapestodiane]

Just wait until you see the rooms, Applejack. The beds are excellent and the view is damn fine.

_{[Maybe not up to par when compared to the big city hotels, but there's a certain charm and comfort to this Inn that he really likes.]}

I'll let you check in. Make sure you get some rest, and feel free to call me later.

[action]

[buckyouup.livejournal.com]

Gonna give me a tour later?

[action]

[tapestodiane]

If you'd like, I'd be happy to.
