35 days till Halloween [video/action]

_{[Anybody passing by the Goldenrod Breeding Center will notice the front yard of the property is a horror scene of guts and flesh--pumpkin guts and flesh that is!]

[Jack is sitting in a folding chair enjoying the sunshine and elbow-deep in a pumpkin, scraping it out for carving. He's got his sunglasses pushed up on his forehead and a huge grin on his face. There are dozens surrounding him, most of them carved, each face more twisted than the last. His pokemon, Edgar the Murkrow, and One the Houndour are chasing each other around through the carnage.]

[He's got his 'gear in his free hand, holding it awkwardly because pumpkin goo has made it slippery .]}

How is everyone today? We're halfway to Halloween! Well...almost halfway. Anyway, I'm warming up my carving skills because I haven't done it in over a year. I'm open to requests! Just go easy on me, I'm rusty.

Heh, having a countdown to Halloween already? [He looks amused, regardless. Kaede would start up the countdown about now too, actually!]

Hmm... how about a scary tiger face? [Some of those twisted faces are totally passing over his head and yeah, "Wild Tiger" has no idea what he's in for, does he?]

...That's a lot of pumpkins.

[You can tell he earned a living as a detective, right?]

You do all those yourself?

[Have one curious goth lolita and a Gastly watching.]

They even have pumpkin patches here...

[on his way to the store aww yeah. However as he passes by the horrific pumpkin scene he stops and stares.]

Whooo, man those look good.

[Have a very confused looking young lady, dual colored eyes wide with brows lifted in a quizical manner.]

You are making Jack-o-Lanterns, desu? I have never ah, carved a pumpkin before, but I have seen it done, desu. It looks very messy, desu...!

[But curious rozen maiden is curious... Even if some of them have been pretty frightful in the past.]

Yup! Ha-ha, it is, that's why I'm doing it outside. I started in the kitchen, but it turned into a huge mess. The wildlife out here should take care of that for me.

Are you excited about Halloween?

_[Waaaaave!]

Thanks! I hope they look even better by the time Halloween gets here!

Jack-o-lanterns!

_{[Jack holds up one with a rather unpleasent, puckered expression.]}

And I'm glad too!

Yup!

_{[Jack can't help but look a little proud.]}

_{[Jack nods and starts working without a word. He balances the 'gear on the arm of his folding chair and turns the pumpkin towards it every time he cuts out a new shape so that he could see.]

[And soon, it's done! He turns the jack-o-lantern towards the gear one last time to reveal a stylized screaming wildcat face.]}

I haven't seen many tigers but-- I think I got pretty close!

Do you save the seeds, desu? I have heard that they are quite tasty when prepared, desu.

[She could well imagine that the kitchen would have looked like a horrible mess, she's seen her fair share of messed up food preparation areas (And maybe had a hand in them).]

I believe I am looking forward to it, desu. It will be my first celebration here in Johto, and it has been a very long time since I got to see Halloween celebrated, desu.

[Suiseiseki wasn't even sure what to expect beyond jack-o-lanterns thanks to this feed, so she's may be a little nervous as well.]

I'm sure they will! If they look that good already.

[Man, he can't remember the last time he carved a pumpkin.]

Pretty impressive. Very Hieronymus Bosch meets HR Geiger meets... I dunno, Ghostbusters or Beetlejuice, maybe.

[Kotetsu will definitely be quiet and let him work, watching curiously until the pumpkin is turned and he jumps a bit in in his chair.]

Oh whoa, that's great! Perfect!

_{[Jack pauses in his work and looks at the mess around his feet. ROASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS. HOW COULD HE FORGET ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THAT? ASDFDSKGLLggl]}

Thank you-- I'd forgotten about that entirely! I'll-- I'll have to start saving some of them.

_{[Jack grins like a fool.]}

I'm glad you like it-- if you're stopping by Goldenrod sometime, you're welcome to it!

_{[Jack tilts his head. Only one of those names sounds sort of familiar. Whatever a ghostbuster was, he didn't think he'd like it very much.]}

Thanks!

[omg the king of halloween is slipping D8... T-that can't be a good sign. thiscallsforahalloweenymusicmontage...]

It is no problem at all, desu!

[she smiles politely, glad that she could be of some help with the halloween preparations.]

Did you grow all the pumpkins yourself, desu?

[Because lol plants. She has to ask, plant freak that she is.]

[Without his magic, confusing non-human types is practically Harry's signature.]

You doing them for this festival thing, or just really enthusiastic?

Oh, that? No, I just thought I'd try my hand and see if I still remembered how. It's been a whole year!

_{[ALL THE FESTIVITIES. ALL OF THEM.]}

Oh, no, I found them in the market. Though...I should try and grow some for next year. If I still live here that is. I might be moving around again by planting season...but who knows?

_{[ 8'D AND NOW HE IS BROKE AGAIN ha ha what is money. Ramen sure is great.]}

I have not been to the market in this place yet, but in a city this big I do look forward to finding one, desu. Especially if you can find such well grown produce, desu!

[She nods a little, before continuing,]

You should try if you can, desu! I am sure it would be quite splendid to be able to harvest your own pumpkins next fall, desu. I do hope to eventually find a place to plant a garden of my own, desu.

But it is quite hard to say where one will be from one day to the next, there is just so much to see in Johto, and so many places, desu!

[Oh Ramen is the greatest /o/ the best gourmet meal for those without income~...]

Haa, I'm not sure I'll make it all the way to Goldenrod before Halloween, but I'll keep it in mind!
