[Dee has a look of quiet contemplation on her face as she turns on the Pokegear, but her trademark smile is back soon enough.]

Things have been a bit slow-going for me; turns out I twisted my ankle a bit last time. You know, I can't really say I like pain that much. Still, at least Ronmeer has been helping.

[The screen turns around, showing that she's sitting down against a tree. As it focuses on her ankle, a Magikarp just stares at the screen. Endlessly. Without blinking. Into your soul. Oh, and it's just kind of laying on her ankle.]

He makes a handy ice pack. Are all Magikarp supposed to be this cold?

[The screen turns away from the soul-staring devil fish (who may or may not be in a coma) and back to Dee.]

I think I'm getting close to the next town, so that's a plus! It'll be great to have a bed again. I wonder if this is what Heather was thinking about before?

((ooc: This is my excuse and I'm stickin' to it.))

_{[The stare will never leave you, Heather. It will haunt you forever and ever. NO ESCAPE. This thing cannot possibly evolve into a Gyarados, it will evolve into a Silent Hill thing, that is how bad it is.]}

Ecstasy, huh? I wouldn't mind a little bit of that- I had some coffee in Cherrygrove and it was great.

The way you talk about this sounds like it's going to be even better.

_{[Dee has some pretty low standards when it comes to a great time.]}

_{[ugughghghghhhh nooo she got enough of that from Wall-Eyed Magikarp, she doesn't need any mooooore. Wrinkling her nose, she tries to ignore whatever of Evil Death Magikarp is still visible.]}

Oh yeah, forgot about the coffee. Getting coffee after being stuck in the wilderness for awhile is pretty sweet, too.

But nothing beats a bed.

You will sleep like a rock.

_{[Okay, fine, you'll be pleased to know he's not in the shot right now. Poor Ronmeer, so unloved.]}

Ignoring the boringness of being a rock, it sounds like a pretty sweet deal.

_{[NO ONE LIKES YOU, RONMEER.]}

Sometimes boring can feel awesome.

_{[SOB WHY YOU BREAK HIS HEART LIKE THAT.]}

I'll take your word on it, Heather. After all, who else would I listen to? _{[There's a bit of a teasing grin with this.]}

<sub>[... It was honestly funny how much talking to Dee felt like she was talking to someone she'd known for a long time. It was so uncanny that she didn't even actually notice it.]

[She puffed up and took on a lofty expression.]</sub>

Well. I mean, I kind of am the leading expert on 'awesome', after all...

In fact, I'd even call you the Queen of Awesome. Or is that too corny?

I'm still learning, see.

_{[It's fun to play along like this; her own family are rather down in the dumps when it comes to stuff like this. Destruction wasn't, but he's... gone.]}

Hm, 'Queen's a bit too traditional.

Maybe 'High Overlord' of Awesome. ... Or maybe, you know, just the one-word name. Awesome. Like 'Cher' or 'Madonna' except way cooler.

What do you think?

_{[Yeah, apart from him, they weren't exactly a bundle of laughs...]}

Ooooh, we're trying to outdo Cher and Madonna now?

Then we practically have to go with the one word name.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

You think so?

Let's do it, then.

As of right now, my official title is just 'Awesome'. No frills, no nothin'.

Just sayin' it like it is.

[oldestfriend.livejournal.com]

Awesome.

You're gonna rock everyone's world.

Already in the process, man.

Already in the process.
