36 days till Halloween [Video/Action for Breeding Center]
[What? Why, NO, you can't use the livingroom.]
[There's a Jack in it.]
[A rather distressed Jack. He's sitting on the center of the rug surrounded by open movie rental boxes and sorting through them like a mad man. The remote sits off to the side and the flatscreen is playing credits from the last disaster he's pre-screened. Some cornsyrup happy gorefest called Crockagnaw 2. Jack doesn't look well. There are dark circles under his eyes (even more so...considering he's like...a dead guy) and his hair isn't tied back. It is fucking EVERYWHERE. He's punching away furiously at his 'gear and broadcasting his findings.]
Can ANYONE out there reccommend me a good horror movie? I've watched over thirty eight and they all SUCK. [Thanks again, Barney, for teaching him that word.] Come on, Johto! You're killing me! Flying Type? Honestly?
[He holds up a sun-faded box with an ominous Pidgeotto silhouetted against a rooftop on the cover.]
I admit, Used Revive had potential but....hhhhhhhgggggghh!
[He gives in and flops backwards, giving the 'gear a good shot of the ceiling light fixture.]
This movie night is going to be a disaster. I know it. It's not going to be a horror fest. It'll be a comedy show.
[WOE.]

action;
[ Who is this hobo in his house? ]
[ Oh, no, that's just Jack who looks even more hoboish than usual. ] Are you alright, Skellington-san? [ You look really dead... ]
action
My life is over.
[Dramatic, much?]
action
[ A short pause. ] Are they that scary, or just that bad?
action
And not the good kind of dreadful. The dreadful kid. Where you dread them. I can't show the house these films. You'd think one out of thirty some odd would be good. Or maybe I'm just old fashioned and don't get them.
[He gropes around blindly and holds up a box with a menacing looking Magikarp on the cover. It was called Struggle.]
Where are the horror movies about people? The people hiding under your vehicle in the dead of night, waiting to slit your ankles? The man outside your window? The jealous lover that traps you in the attic and peels your skin off little by little with a grapefruit spoon? Where are THOSE movies?
action; YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT FAIL
Are all of these movies about Pokemon?
WHAT FAIL I DIDNT SEE NO FAIL
We may have to call off the horror marathon.
[Still with the box over his face. Classy.]
YOU BETTER NOT OR YOU'LL REGRET IT
Why not try making your own then?
AND THEN LJ SUCKED FOR A WHILE
No time. I was supposed to square this away today and focus on spider webs. They're very important.
[He reached for the movie box. If Souji let him have it, he'd replace it over his own face.]
LJ ALWAYS SUCKS, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
[ And no, Souji is raising the box out of Jack's reach. ] That excited for Halloween?
HARRBLARBLARBLG
[He sighs.]
Back home, Halloween was what we prepared for all year long. We brought it to the rest of the world. It's my job.
