OTA

[Sorey is incredibly excited to get to explore all of Union and its ruins, but he's been holding off on the ruins until Mikleo got back from Gigas so they could go exploring together.

And he's back, so that means Sorey is trying to find where the blazes he's supposed to get a lantern. His Eevee is just sitting at his feet, yawning while Sorey looks around the Union shopping district a bit confused]

There's got to be a supply shop around here somewhere...or even a bookstore.

Closed to Mikleo

[Mikleo is met by Sorey's Eevee whenever he gets back to where they're staying since Sorey's gone to get dinner. Mab nearly trips him as he runs over and rubs himself all over Mikleo's ankles. Looks like he was worried]

Comments

[ruinsandchill]

Yes, to both questions. Mikleo and I spent a lot of time reading growing up, and it's fun to argue over the books we're reading.

[sparrowfeathered]

[Just, immediately:] Ooooohhh, nerd fights!

[ruinsandchill]

--what, nerd fights? What do you mean?

[Mab is laughing his ass off, meanwhile]

[sparrowfeathered]

Nerd fights! You're totally fighting over details in the books, aren't you?

I mean, I don't know what else you'd fight over in a book.

[Rose gets going. Really gets going, into a full-on ramble, and doing voices. (Neither voice sounds like Sorey or Mikleo.)]

"Oooh, this page is very crumbly. But the lines are even."

"No! The letters are all crooked. Look!"

"There's words here."

"I guess."

[ruinsandchill]

...no? We argue over what the books say and if they're accurate...?

[sparrowfeathered]

See?

Nerd fights! Those are cool!

[She pauses.] Who usually wins?

[ruinsandchill]

No one? We just...have fun with it. There's no way to really win this kind of thing, anyway.

[sparrowfeathered]

Those are the best kinds of arguments!

I mean, I don't think I'd get the argument about the book, but it sounds fun. Like running a race, sort of!

[ruinsandchill]

[That makes him laugh a bit]

Yeah, kind of. I know our Pokémon like to watch us go at it.

[Mab, still laughing, nods]

[sparrowfeathered]

[Rose laughs, then puts her hands on her hips.]

Sounds like you've been friends for awhile, then. Bring him by sometime, if you wanna! I usually get a few new books in every now and then.

[Little does she know: she met him in the very same bookstore she got these from.]

[ruinsandchill]

I will! Thanks, Rose.

[sparrowfeathered]

You bet! Any time!
