41 days till Halloween [video/action for Goldenrod]

[quickattackjack]

Ha ha! Get a load of this!

<sub>[It's early morning in Johto and Jack is on a supply run for the Breeding Centre. A somewhat disheveled Poke'mart can be seen behind him. People are moving slowly, sipping their coffee, and trying to stock the shelves before the sun finishes rising.]

[The ex-skeleton gestures to the novelty cap he's wearing. He found in the very back of the store near one of the windows (he's several floors up in the Goldenrod mart). It's a simple looking cap with a pair of tacky Vulpix ears on it. The front is printed with:]</sub>

FOXY GRANDPA

<sub>[It isn't long before Jack's grin dissolves into shoulder-shaking snickering. He's TRYING TO BE QUIET because Arceus knows the poor workers need it...but this is the best hat he has EVER found, you guys.]

[EVER.]</sub>


[OOC: Anyone is welcome to run into him in the Mart in the early morning. He can be found eating breakfast in a little cafe near the music shop later.]

[Tagging along, the Other Father's looking at the hats in the surrounding area too.

He takes a look at the hat, grinning, a brow raised. He's found a hat with a pair of wartortle ears on, which he's sporting himself.]

We~ll...

[Action]

[quickattackjack]

Suits you, I think!

_{[There was no Music Type, so a water type would just have to do for Father!]}

[Action]

[pianokeys]

I~ don't know. 'Think a grass type might be better?

[He saw a Vileplume hat back there. It's mighty impressive.]

Don't think any could suit more than yours.

_{[Jack just beams.]}

You know, it just might....I think I am going to buy this.

[uuing]

[ Maria's just staring at the hat for a while. She doesn't get the joke, sob. ]

Are you a grandpa? .. A grandpa that's a fox, uu-?

[ video ]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack shakes his head, still laughing somewhat.]}

Oh, no, not me. I'm nobody's grandpa. It's a joke gift.

[ video ]

[uuing]

Then why are you wearing the hat, uu-? Maria thinks only a foxy grandpa should get to wear it, since it says that on it..!

[ video ]

[quickattackjack]

Just being silly! I might actually buy this one. It could be good for a laugh back at the Center.

[laplaceattorney]

[Excuse this rude teenager staring at you. It's just...that's quite the hat.

The little Vulpix pup bouncing over to you thinks so, too.]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack takes no offence. Instead he puts on a goofy grin and waves until the little fox pokemon approaches. He crouches down with his elbows on his knees.]}

Well, hey there!

tagging this thread with keisuke was very deliberate.

[laplaceattorney]

[The pokemon yips a cheerful greeting to this man, because CLEARLY he is her grandpa! Look at those ears. Her actions--excitable, for this particular Vulpix--snap Keisuke out of his distracted state just enough that the stranger's easy demeanor doesn't register.]

Jack, don't bother him!

name confusion is always welcome!

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack is in the process of reaching out to pat the little fire pokemon on the head when Keisuke calls out his warning. Jack draws his hand back instantly. It's quite early in the morning and he isn't sure if he and the boy have met before.]}

I'm very sorry...

[francia]

[France is laughing despite himself.]

That pun is terrible.

[Video]

[quickattackjack]

Isn't it though?

_{[Perhaps it would be good for his pun-war with Heather.]}

[video]

[majorleague]

[Snickers, then starts to full-on laugh.]

Nice hat, geezer.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Somebody who gets it!]}

Same t'you, sonny!

[video]

[majorleague]

[Scout was totally laughing at you, not with you, but he agrees that his own hat is pretty awesome so he doesn't bother to correct that small detail.]

'Course my hat's nice. Had it for as long as I can remember.

I had a lotta hats back home but they didn't come here with me. One of 'em has a hot dog on it!

[video]

[quickattackjack]

You must have quite the selection where you're from!

_{[He has NO idea.]}

[ Hello, here's Sakura's smiling face. ]

Your hat's cute, Mr. Jack!

[ She... doesn't get it. But she thinks it's cute anyway! ]

Re: video;

[quickattackjack]

Haha, thanks, Sakura! How'v you been?

[notakaijuu]

I've been good! Have you been doing okay, Mr. Jack?

Re: video;

[quickattackjack]

I'm well. Been working hard at the Breeding Centre since the storms. I hope you didn't get caught outside in all of that!

[Trying very hard not to laugh. Harry's a very serious adult-type person who- oh, who is he kidding.]

Nice hat.

Re: [video]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Goofy fake grandpa voice is go.]}

Ha ha, thanks, sonny!

Re: [video] So somehow the response to this got buried in my inbox...

[used_fireblast]

[That was definitely not a chuckle at the goofy old-man voice. This is serious business, and we have always been at war with Eastasia.]

Man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything. Also that he's one hip dude like what all we kids hang out with these days.
