Fourth Exorcism - The Miracle of... Eggs?

[os_blackbird]

Crow seems to be looking over a small booklet of sorts, breeder card in hand. It's a fairly strange look to catch him in- he's normally grinning ridiculously, or talking to thin air, but it seems not even that is happening today.

Instead, he frowns, looking over the booklet. "Shit," he mutters, glancing at his card. "How'd I even rack up these funds..."

As he mutters this to himself, his newest pokemon- a Sigilyph and a rather gorgeous shiny archeops- huddle next to each other at the side. Crow seems only vaguely aware of this, continuing to look at the card with an almost twitching expression.

"AAaaaaaagh! What the hell do I do with this kind of cash!? i didn't have to worry about this when jack was around..."

Some noises at the side and he turns, only to gawk.

"What the-"

A little while later the camera will turn on, with an incredulous Crow holding an egg.

"It really did just 'appear', what the heck!?" BIOLOGY SHOULD NOT WORK LIKE THIS.

This isn't exactly the same as taking care of your kids, you know.

[...]

They have a bigger capacity for causing trouble.

[os_blackbird]

Mnnn... "Well-" Wait, wai-

Suddenly turning to catch the rufflett as he threatens to topple off the edge. "Woah there-!"

"FleE-!"

...Well there goes the book. "Phew..."

[planetary_bonds]

...

[Sigh.]

[os_blackbird]

He's gonna pretend he didn't hear that sigh. He's gonna just adjust very careful hold on very clingy rufflett and pick up that book. "I mean- I can't just send them off," he manages to admit. "I can't."

[planetary_bonds]

I know.

[Blink. What was on that page? A...picture? Why did it catch his eye?]

Crow? Can I see that?

[os_blackbird]

"Sure?"

Crow you didn't see what was on the page did you.

At any rate, it's handed over... In all it's caravan discount glory.

[planetary_bonds]

[Blink. Then looking more closely.]

...Caravan.

[os_blackbird]

Looking at the book now. Uh.

"...Yea but the most I'd afford is the one with two beds..." Crow you idiot there's more than you here with money.

[planetary_bonds]

Keep in mind that you're traveling with multiple people, Crow.

[Unspoken hint: we can easily contribute.]

[os_blackbird]

Looking at you almost with narrowed eyes.

"....Think we'd be able to get the boat version?"

Well at least he didn't ask for the one with eight beds.

[planetary_bonds]

[There's an eyebrow raise.]

We don't have any Pokemon that can surf, do we?

[os_blackbird]

". . ."

Looking toward the caravan store's direction now. "...I get a discount."

YEAAAaaaAAA!

[planetary_bonds]

[pft]

I see.

[os_blackbird]

"LET'S GO!"

All the birds are immediately at attention.

What. The. Hell.

DAMMIT THEY WERE TRAINED ALL ALONG.

[planetary_bonds]

[But the problem is when trainer is too busy sleeping to enforce training, isn't it? Yuusei is almost amused.]

Ahh...

1/2

[os_blackbird]

[To the caravan place? SOMEONE IS ALREADY THERE..]

2/2

[neikeabequeathing]

[Zone what-]

"A-Are you sure I can't just put these in a flashlight??" is what he seems to be saying to a store manager, a box of lightbulbs in hand.

"Sorry... Kid. But they're way too big for anything but caravan porches."

[planetary_bonds]

[Ah...?]

Zone?

[neikeabequeathing]

"Hihh-!" ACK-

He very nearly drops the box, but manages to turn and adjust his odd glasses to face the others. "A-Ahh- Yu-Yuusei, Crow..."

Crow merely smiles somewhat. "Huh! Didn't think we'd see you here!" Uhh... "Lightbulbs?"

The boy merely looks down to the box shyly. "R-Repellent bulbs..."

[planetary_bonds]

[Hn.]

It would save all that money you keep spending on Repels...

[os_blackbird]

The store manager adjusts their glasses. "While that is indeed the case, I must inform you that these bulbs only work with a caravan! They're far too big for handheld use!"

That's what they say...

While Zone continues looking a bit dejected however- "Heh! Well go figure, that's what we're here for," Crow says with a grin, pulling out his card and licence. "And I even get discount!"

[planetary_bonds]

If you really wanted, Zone, you could help contribute and we could put the bulbs on the caravan we're planning to get.

[neikeabequeathing]

"E-Eh... We're getting..."

Crow flashes a bit of a thumbs up. "Yep! Four beds- one for everyone, at least until Ruka recovers!"

And then Crow volunteers for hammock.

Anyways he'll be dealing with the salesperson now, making sure they get the right thing...

Zone looks back to Yuusei rather curiously. "What kind of caravan..."

...The... Boat kind?

[planetary_bonds]

I think Crow settled for the one with the boat extension.

[neikeabequeathing]

"Heh! Boat?" What what but nothing knows surf-

"T-Then it has an engine too!?" ...No.
