62 days till Halloween [Video]

[quickattackjack]

_{[It's early. It's way, way too early, but here's Jack outside in the dawn fog, perched precariously on a ladder and stringing up lights along the eaves of his mansion. The Halloween decorations haven't even been taken down. Why would they be? Of course he's going to address the network!]}

Jingle bells! Silver bells!... Bells bells bells! Aha-hah! I can't believe it, it's already here!

_{[At least he didn't do this on November first, right?]}

I hope you've all been good! I know I have! What are you hoping to get this year from old Sandy Claws?

_{[His joyful yammering is cut off for a moment as his ladder wobbles and he pinwheels his arms (gear in-hand) to catch his balance. Somewhere off-screen it's possible to hear a Yamask having a poke'breakdown.]}

That was a close one...I think. I think this year I'd like...a quiet holiday. And maybe hiking boots.

_{[Jack beams at his gear, taking a break in nailing up the lights. His Yamask really wishes that he wouldn't just...HANG OUT on the top of a ladder though.]}

Well you're in for a treat, I'll tell you that right now! Johto doesn't do anything quietly!

[Jimmy is quick to mirror Jack's big grin, leaning in a bit closer to the Gear's screen.]

Aw man, I can't wait! I dunno what I'm gonna do yet, but whatever it is, it'll be awesmazing for sure!

[quickattackjack]

Have you thought about what you want from Sandy Claws yet?

[awesmazings]

[He pauses, tilting his head.]

Sandy Claws?

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Yes! A fellow in a red coat who comes down the chimney and leaves gifts for everyone who's been good during the year!

[video]

[awesmazings]

Oooh, you mean Santa Clause! Is Sandy Claws the version of Santa here in Johto?

But uh...I actually don't know! I haven't really thought about it lately.

[quickattackjack]

I'm afraid Sandy Claws is just what I've always called him since I met him years ag--

_{[THAT ONE TIME I FUCKED UP REAL BAD.]}

Learned. About him. Years ago. You asked if you could lend a hand, right? I could use someone to help wrap gifts for the Pokemon! You can think about it then.

[video]

[awesmazings]

Oh, alright!

[SURE THAT SEEMS LEGIT.]

I'd love to, Jack! I can get my Pokemon to help and we can get it done twice as fast.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Great! See you soon!

_{[Not a lot of Jack's pokemon have...hands...so all the help is greatly appreciated.]}

[video]

[awesmazings]

You too!

[And with that, Jimmy cuts the feed.]
