32 days till Halloween [video/Action for Goldendrod]
//ACTION- He's wandering around in Goldenrod hunting a job. Feel free to run into him!//
[A whole city made of lights is an awful lot for one little skeleton to take in all at once. There were shopping centers! There were movies! There were shows and elaborate battles and probably hundreds of places to eat. There were also casinos full of ringing bells, laughing people, and blinking lights.]
[Guess who really really liked the blinking lights.]
[Go on, guess.]
[Jack leans against the outside of a little diner with a Help Wanted sign in the window. It's early morning and he's waiting on whoever owns the place to show up. He's not wearing that grey and black coat he always has on. Or his gloves. Or his shoes...or pants. Instead, all the old king has on are a pair of black swim trunks, the red Exeggutor-print Hawaiian shirt he picked up forever ago, and a very, very humbled expression.]
[Oh, dear.]
//VIDEO//
[It's still early morning when the camera clicks on. Jack looks tired and maybe a little embarrassed. THERE BE SCARIER THINGS THAN LEDGES HERE IN GOLDENROD]
Good morning, Johto. I hope you all slept well. Goldenrod is different from any other city I've visited so far. It's taught me something I thought I already knew: everything in moderation.
[Yeah, he's flat-ass broke.]
I'm going on a job hunt today and was wondering if I could perhaps pitch in half on a hotel room for a few days with someone--just until I'm back on my feet. I don't have much money, but I have a few healing items. I won't cause you any trouble and I don't snore...I don't think I do.
[Jack yawns, as he's been out all night long.]
I think I've had enough of the nightlife in this place.

W-well, when can I start? I'll march inside and start filing papers in five minutes if you need me!
[WHAT IS DESPERATE?]
