usedsuitup | Entry 20 [video]

[Hello Johto! Today on Barney's blog you are receiving the rarest of all things, a travel entry. Yes, Barney has had an eventful last while what with crazy parties and floods and fourth walls breaking. Barney still isn't sure what to make of that weekend, since he's missing three days and all he can remember is zombies and boobs, but that is beside the point. He's on Route 39 now, and has been for about two days.]

Hey everyone! Can you see this place? This is a completely unnatural landscape. Look at it. It's flat. Completely and utterly flat. There is nothing here.

[He waves the camera around to reveal the boring flat farmland. And more than a few Murkrows. Maybe an odd Houndour if they're around.]

This has got to be the most boring thing ever, and it's all I've been seeing for like two days! That's not right! This place sucks. I never would have left Goldenrod if I'd have known that this is what I would have had to deal with. I'm going nuts out here since there is absolutely nothing interesting here! Just farms and music and a whole lot of nothing. The music isn't helping by the way. Really, it's not. God this sucks.

[There's a sigh as Barney stops ranting for a bit and walks for a bit, the screen simply showing the road. He then stops and appears on the screen again.]

So, anyone know how long it takes to get back to Goldenrod from Oli-whatever?

[More walking and then another brief stop]

Oh yeah, I scored with the Olivine Joy, so that's four Joys now, what up?

[He goes back to walking for a bit. Think he's done? Not quite.]

Have there always been this many birds around?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

FOUR?!

[Cough, compose yourself, child!]

I...I mean.....FOUR??!?!?!

Uh yeah? Cherrygrove, Violet, Goldenrod, and Olivine.

Got 'em all.

[Counting them off on his fingers, and completely unapologetic about everything.]

That's.....uh....well, that's pretty awesome, actually!

Isn't it? I'm going for a full set.

Niiiiice!

I know, right? I was thinking after that I'd go for the Jennys.

Dude. I think you might be my hero. Or idol. Either way.

Always nice to be appreciated. It wasn't easy, let me tell you.

I'm sure! Uh, but if for some reason my girlfriend shows up, she'd....probably not want to know. At all.

[Barney gives Danny a once over? You're a kid and you have a girlfriend. Oh you poor thing.]

If you say so, but you know, you don't have to tell her.

She'd find out. She'd totally find out.

Ah, the nosy type, right?

Ehh, kinda? She's really, really rich, so she's able to buy access to pretty much any info she wants.

You left the big city for that?

[ Sanae is both impressed and incredulous. After a moment, amusement is added to the mix. ]

Better question -- how'd you make it to four?

Actually I left to help with the flooding. [Momentary lapse in judgment fueled by alcohol]

Cherrygrove, Violet, Goldenrod and Olivine. The Joys really know how to appreciate a good suit.

Well, I can't argue reasoning like that. Good of you to do, boss.

Anyway, sounds like I oughtta invest in a suit. My count's still at zero.

[ Not really unusual for him, and it's all said jokingly, but man. Human hormones take some getting used to. ]

It'll be one of the best purchases of your life. Girls dig suits, trust me on this.

I'll keep it in mind. You got this much of a female following back home?

You could say that, yeah.

[ He gives a brief but good-natured little laugh under his breath. ]

Well, color me impressed. Don't think I ever got to asking -- what is it you do back home, boss?

Heh, please.

[Beat]

In all seriousness, I work in a bank.

Hah, and here I'm just a cafe owner. With some street art on the side.

[ The art's actually the main thing, but he doesn't like to play himself up too much. There's also that whole 'watching the souls of the dead battle monsters for a second chance at life' gig, but let's stick to the interesting stuff.

Like coffee beans. ]

Oh, hey, that's pretty cool. Do you sell art in your cafe?

Nah, I tend to keep the two separate. The art's kept pretty quiet -- I'm not much for the spotlight.

Makes sense. Gotta friend who's an artist so I was curious.
