Maybe...

[Dipper's a bit tempted to let out the goat that random old man gave him, but Mabel doesn't have anything to ride on, and he's not sure if they'd both fit on one goat...]

Whatever happened, it must've wiped our memory too.
kittenfists: (✭₎ but before i go.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[...Probably not, but it would be hilarious to see.]

Okay, the only thing I'm getting here is...aliens! Aliens can wipe minds, right? It's gotta be them.
pinevestigator: (carry me)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
Aliens?

[He knows he's paranoid, but come on now.]
kittenfists: (₍✮₎ when can i see you again?)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
[She's just tossing ideas out there...]

Well, what else could it have been? Other than, you know, Bill. ...But if he wanted to send us somewhere, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have sent us here. Maybe someplace more...creepy and dangerous?
pinevestigator: (where the lost)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe, maybe not. He's tricky. ...might be trying to go with something more subtle.

[Yeah, and maybe the sky is gonna fall and Mabel's pig is going to start flying.]

Either way, this place doesn't seem... too dangerous...
kittenfists: (₍✭₎ but before i go.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Dipper, what could Bill possibly gain from throwing you two in Johto.]

See? And I mean, these things are pretty cute, too! If they wanted to attack us or something, they would've done so already.

[inb4 they encounter a wild Pokémon.]
pinevestigator: (take a breath)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey man, you never know. That triangle is weird.]

Yeah, I guess you're right...I mean, this deer has been helping me get to places, so that's...good.

[More like shoving him until he gets moving, but details.]
kittenfists: (✭₎ ᴀɴᴅ ғᴀɴ ᴛʜᴇ ғʟᴀᴍᴇs sᴏ ʜᴏᴛ.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
You need to give it a name! ...Ooh! How about...Leafy?

[Please do NOT name it that.]

It's got a little leaf thing on its head!
pinevestigator: (cause after all)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Nooo...I don't think that really fits.

[He looks down at the Deerling, who bleats softly and pushes her nose into Dipper's hand.]

I think it is a her, actually...

[...]

...it...wouldn't be weird if I called her Wendy, would it?
kittenfists: (✭₎ and the stars glow for you.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[There are two ways she could go about this: one - being mature and not saying anything, or two - being the great older sister she is and teasing him about it.

...

While the second choice is most tempting, she's certain that he'd just end up getting flustered and yelling at her, so...he gets a break. Just this once. It doesn't stop her from giggling, though, as she shakes her head.]


I don't think it's weird at aaaaall...
pinevestigator: (shipwreck)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, it helps that he's actually starting to get over Wendy...little by little. And them still being friends makes it easy for him to name his new little friend after one.]

Alright. Wendy it is, then.
kittenfists: (✭₎ ᴀɴᴅ ʙʀɪɢʜᴛʟʏ ʙᴜʀsᴛ.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-15 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
[She's still working on that list of rebound crushes...slowly but surely.]

Well, that's settled... Haha, their names both end in "y"!
pinevestigator: (away from here)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-15 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
[You will find 'the one' one day, Mabel. He's sure of it.]

Heh, they do. C'mon, let's get to Cherrygrove. Maybe they actually do have cherries.

...just uh. Let me look at any berries you find before you eat them. Apparently a lot of them are just for the Pokemon and can make people sick.
kittenfists: (₍✮₎ i gotta know.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-17 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, she knows she'll find "the one" someday, Dipper... She's just trying to help you out. It's good to have a wingman - er...wingwoman? - to put in a good name for you in the dating pool, right? And what better one than your beloved twin sister!]

Whaaaaat? Bummer.

[What if she wanted to eat berries... Johto, why have you forsaken her...]

Oh well, guess I'll just feed them to Roasty.
pinevestigator: (wide eyes)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-17 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
[YES WELL...maybe he should stay out of the dating circuit for a little while. For his sanity and everyone else's.

Also, Johto is a cruel mistress.]


Yeah, that'd probably be best. I've seen a couple here and there...mostly things that kinda look like blue oranges, and some things that looked like peaches.
kittenfists: (₍✭₎ of the night.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-18 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
In that case, Iiiiii think I saw some earlier before I came here, but when I went to go check them out, Roasty ended up setting them on fire, sooooo...

[Yeah. That was a thing.]
pinevestigator: (so that I won't feel dead)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-18 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
.....what all has Roasty set on fire, Mabel?
kittenfists: (⁽✭⁾ ʙᴜᴛ ɴᴏᴛ ᴛʜɪs ᴛɪᴍᴇ.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-18 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
He set the end of my sleeve on fire, too!

[Mabel...why are you so cheery about that...]
pinevestigator: (chase your dreams)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-18 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
That...that sounds pretty dangerous, Mabel...

Can he control that...?
kittenfists: (✭₎ 'til then.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-18 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Gasp!]

Roasty's not dangerous, Dipper!

[She is so offended that he said such a thing.]

He can control it, but sometimes he gets a little...I dunno, excited? But it's not too bad!
pinevestigator: (and there's more)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-19 12:05 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, I'm just saying! You don't want him to...I dunno, accidentally set something else on fire.

Or set you on fire.
kittenfists: (✭₎ ᴀɴᴅ ғᴀɴ ᴛʜᴇ ғʟᴀᴍᴇs sᴏ ʜᴏᴛ.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-19 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
[She places a hand on his shoulder and shakes her head.]

Pshhh, he wouldn't set me on fire, Dipper!
pinevestigator: (carry me)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-19 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
On accident, though! Maybe.

[Dipper calm down.]
kittenfists: (✭₎ ᴏʜ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴏᴜʀɪɴɢ ʀᴀɪɴ.)

[personal profile] kittenfists 2014-09-19 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Maybe"...meaning "maybe it won't happen!" It's fine, Dipper, don't worry so much!
pinevestigator: (and mystery)

[personal profile] pinevestigator 2014-09-19 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Look, at least his deer doesn't breathe fire.

If it did, he would be 150x more worried right now.]


Ugh....alright, let's just keep moving. We've got a long walk ahead of us.

that icon made me laugh...
