so i know the first rule of fight club is not to talk about fight club
but after the shenanigans from a week ago and the devastating loss of drink pushing bears
i gotta say
i am really god damn bored
i am watching my fingernails grow here people
youve gotta fucking help me

if any of you happen to be a badass or something
you should get your bad ass up on the roof and bring your a game
it is on
paradisa
fite me
imma be chilling on the roof above the courtyard if you got the skills to punch the guys who give you the bills

bring it

[ooc: Long story short, Dave is bored and pretty restless. He's looking for someone to practise fighting with but he also wants to scope out the fighting crowd here. If you want to jump right into action that is OK!]

[ What an insensitive boob John is! Or maybe he just doesn't feel like fighting right now. He does grin when Dave seems to give it up and walks over to just hang out with him. ]

Not much, I was just taking Rock out for a walk earlier.

[ A pause. ]

Hey, have you met him yet?

[shenunigans]

[Maybe he should fake it for his friend! Whatever. Dave just decides he's afraid of losing and stops caring because he's better.]

Please don't tell me you have a pet rock. [A beat.] Please don't tell me you take your pet rock out on walks. [He can see it. Vividly.]

[dupable]

[ Never. John likes to be honest with people. And okay, Dave, you believe that. John will let you believe that. ]

What? No, that's dumb. He's a giant fire dog thing. Well, not really a dog. Kind of a dog? I am not exactly sure what he is.

[shenunigans]

So what you're saying is- you have a pokemon?
[He gives him a confused look, but it's not really apparent thanks to the shades.]
Where did you get a pokemon?

[dupable]

[ He looks oddly impressed here. ]

Yeah! Someone told you about them? Anyway, my friend Rin gave him to me.

[shenunigans]

Uh, no. I thought you were fucking around. Hell, I was fucking around. I'm so fucking jelly it isn't even funny right now.

Hell yes, Egbert. You can show me your pokeymons.

[dupable]

[ Floating about a foot into the air! He's ready to go then and there. ]

Okay! Wait-- do you want me go to get him and come back here so you can keep up your fights or what?

[shenunigans]

[Welp. Dave had almost totally forgotten about that. He shrugs dramatically before moving to sit where John had been.]

Bring him up, maybe he can scare some bitches off.

[dupable]

Sit tight I will be right back.

[ And he sort of falls back over the edge and zooms down the side of the castle back to his room.

Several minutes will pass before the door to the roof bursts open with John riding on the back of a Typhlosion. ]

Dave, meet Rock!

[shenunigans]

Uhuh.

[He sprawls a little once John leaves, reflecting on the deeper meaning of life whilst waiting to be thoroughly disappointed because there's no way John has a pokemon.

...Only he does.


....And it's awesome.

He's so fucking jealous.]

Woah.

[dupable]

[ He's grinning like a complete douchebag too as he floats over Rock's head and lands in front of the pokemon how stands up to his full height. He's a pretty big dude. ]

Pretty cool, right?

[shenunigans]

Yeah.
[Man, John. You are a douche. Dave hates you so fucking much right now. He's wanted a pokemon since he was like. Seven. Shit is so unfair.]

So someone just gave it to you?

[dupable]

[ Life's unfair ;) ]

Yeah, my friend Rin. I guess a friend of hers owned Rock before I showed up here.

[shenunigans]

[John is unfair.]

Do people usually just give away pokemon here?

[dupable]

I don't think so. I think it was just because he got sent home.

[shenunigans]

That's bullshit, how the hell did you luck out so much?

[Just. Staring up at it.] You think two people can take a ride on it? ...No homo. [Please let him on the pokemon, John.]

[dupable]

I have been here for two years! It just sort of happens.

[ Scoffing at his no homo but glancing up at Rock. ]

Is it okay with you?

[ The pokemon turns and stares at Dave for a few seconds before dropping down on all fours. ]

I think that means it's fine!

[shenunigans]

Dang. So I gotta stay here two years to mooch?

[He watches with eager interest as Dave talks JUST LIKE A REAL POKEMON TRAINER god he's so jealous.]

My ten year old self is going to fucking piss himself. [He shuffles over quickly and clambers up.] My Fifteen year old self is fine, though. Just sayin'.

[dupable]

Pretty much!

[ Not that he'd put it that way, but that's not the point.

Also John's making a face at that. Gross! ]

Good, because I am pretty sure Rock wouldn't be okay with this if you were gonna pee all over him.

[ Hopping up after Dave and getting situated before Rock starts walking forward. ]

[shenunigans]

Guess there are worse ways to live. Big ass castle, wishing up shit and getting pokemon. Could be way worse.

[He's just going to. Tense up like crazy when Rock walks. Jesus this is both amazing and horrifying.]

Must be his lucky day, my bladder is empty.

[dupable]

Could be better though. This place can get really shitty sometimes.

[ Though overall it's true, it's a pretty nice life and he does like the friends he's made here. ]

And I think you mean your lucky day, he would kick your ass if you did.

[shenunigans]

So far I've only been to the mildly irritating level of buttfrustration this place seems to have a rep for.

[He shrugs a little. He hates being a noob at anything, even stuff he hates.]

I dunno, man. I think he likes me more than you already.

[dupable]

Just wait, it will definitely get worse. It always manages to get worse.

[ And at that comment he's flopping down on Rock's back. ]

No way, me and Rock are buddies and he is not going to abandon me like that.

[shenunigans]

When you say 'worse'...? [He trails off, leaving an open ended question for John. He's curious, but he doesn't want to specifically ask what shit the other guy has gone through.]

People change, man. Pokemon...evolve. Or whatever.
