5 days till Halloween [Video]
[The feed opens on the path winding through town. Jack is sitting under a tree near the entrance with his Poke'Gear pointed at it. Edgar occasionally hops into view, pecking at the ground. It's afternoon.]
Hello! Before Edgar and I head off in search of the tower with the ghosts, I thought we would stay around here a few days. Would anyone in the area want to meet and swap stories? We're in Cherrygrove!
[He tilts the 'Gear up to point at the sign.]

[He tilts the 'Gear up to point at the sign.]
[That sounds like the beginnings of a song. It must come to be.]
[Jack looks like he's tasted something kind of sour but quickly shakes it off when he notices Phoenix's Pokemon. He flips the Poke'Gear open to learn more about them. Edgar seems more interested in Phoenix though. She narrows one eye at him at a time, trying to figure out if the lawyer is going to flying tackle her master or not. >8c!]
Good to meet you, Phoenix! How long have you been in Pokemon Town?
[He gladly accepts the shake with one of his own spidery hands.]
[That and the Three Woopateers.]
Ah-- [He scratches the back of his head in that sheepish manner of his, trying to recall when exactly he got here.] About a week, maybe? [He glances at Jack curiously.] How about you?
[One Wooped over the Wooper's Nest]
Maybe a little less than a week. We set out for Cherrygrove a day or so after waking up. And then that took about three days. It all gets kind of fuzzy towards the end.
[Jack looks thoughtful. He really doesn't remember much between the Uncatchable Hoot Hoot and getting flying tackled by Old Snake. Maybe it's for the best.]
It's a strange place, isn't it? It's really...bright.
[Dances With Woopers]
Ah, well, you made a faster start than I did. I didn't start traveling until...maybe two days after I woke up here? Took me a little over three days to get here, and if I've been in Cherrygrove for four...that's nine days, yeah. [He counts each day off his fingers as he says this.]
...it's a really strange place. Although bright isn't exactly a word I'd use...?
[The Wooper in the Willows]
Well, to be honest, I was looking for a way out of here. Didn't find one. It's more colorful than what I'm used to.
[He pulls up a fistful of grass and watches the blades drift back down to the ground.]
Maybe green's the word. It's very...green.
(( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJum3mdJSrY also have you seen this? I thought you might appreciate it. Woop!))
[A Clockwork Wooper -- also, late. S-sorry! ;;]
Well, we're all trying to find a way home. [He shrugs, looking at Jack curiously.] The place you're from isn't...green? Don't you have, y'know, grass and trees and stuff? I mean, I'm not from here, but even my hometown has...green.
...Lady! Stop that, you're aggravating the poor thing. [He gives Lady his best >8C look, and she scowls a bit before backing off.] S-sorry about that.
[The Wooper of Oz--- ITS OKAY <333]
Do you know if anyone's made it? Is there a door? The last time I ended up in another world, I fell through a door in the woods....and no. Well there IS grass but it's rarely green. It's a place called Halloween Town.
[That doesn't make you sound like a drug addict at ALL, Jack. And come to think about it...how did you even get back? Magic snowmobial?--He notices the mini fight brewing.]
Edgar! Be nice! We're not battling today! It's fine, Phoenix. She's been a little on edge.
