- 5 08 18:59:44 <KamenWatcher> I assume Edmund told you where to meet "Emma" then
- 5 08 18:59:50 <KamenWatcher> So what do you do until then?
- 5 08 19:00:02 <KamenWatcher> You got your Arm sock I assume
- 5 08 19:00:46 Bruce tries to find a place to clean up quickly enough as to not be late, oh god he's going to look like a Hazy brooks if he's dirty
- 5 08 19:02:02 <KamenWatcher> Well, there's probably a place somewhere to take the water you have and clean yourself up
- 5 08 19:02:12 <KamenWatcher> It's a fairly modernized town after all.
- 5 08 19:02:22 <KamenWatcher> And it IS adjacent to a river
- 5 08 19:03:04 Bruce heads to the river, at least he can explain what's going on to the wailord then
- 5 08 19:03:33 Paradox ([email protected]) has joined #WildWestmon
- 5 08 19:03:39 <KamenWatcher> Okay then
- 5 08 19:03:48 <KamenWatcher> You're at the river
- 5 08 19:04:17 <KamenWatcher> The gawkers have naturally dispersed by now
- 5 08 19:04:49 Bruce lets out the wailord and gives her another snack (Week of food gone ;-; 20 more cents)
- 5 08 19:05:25 <KamenWatcher> (This is ONE reason I didn't let you take the Wailord before :B)
- 5 08 19:05:58 <KamenWatcher> The Wailord :Ds at the food, but D:s when she notices she's still in the river.
- 5 08 19:06:00 <Emma> (let her feed herself bruce :B)
- 5 08 19:06:20 Gorbash ([email protected]) has joined #WildWestmon
- 5 08 19:06:21 <Bruce> "Hey, we're trying to figure it out, you fine in the ball?"
- 5 08 19:06:25 <Bruce> (nuuu ;-;)
- 5 08 19:06:39 <KamenWatcher> She sings affirmatively
- 5 08 19:07:31 <Bruce> "Alright, we're figuring out how to get you back in the open water, it'll just be a bit longer. You want to stay in the ball? I can't imagine it being more comfortable than the river..."
- 5 08 19:07:57 <KamenWatcher> She nudges the ball, wanting to go back in
- 5 08 19:08:14 <Bruce> "Alright big girl, I'll see you tomorrow morning for breakfast then."
- 5 08 19:08:23 <KamenWatcher> Roll a Strength check not to fall over from OH GOD WHALE NUDGED ME
- 5 08 19:08:25 Bruce returns her with a sigh, looking at the pokeball a little confused

- 5 08 19:08:44 <Bruce> 1d20+13
- 5 08 19:08:45 <DiceMaid-9001> Bruce, 1d20+13: 15 [1d20=2]
- 5 08 19:09:00 <KamenWatcher> Doink. You stay up. Just barely
- 5 08 19:09:22 <KamenWatcher> So where to now?
- 5 08 19:09:49 Bruce gets cleaned up, explaining what's going on to the pokemon, (Not what he's doing getting cleaned up, despite them never seeing it being done before)
- 5 08 19:10:36 <Emma> (then what is he explaining?)
- 5 08 19:10:42 <Bruce> (Where he's going)
- 5 08 19:10:47 <Emma> (ah)
- 5 08 19:10:59 <KamenWatcher> <So... other than doing our noses a favor... you're off to see a lady human?>
- 5 08 19:11:26 <Bruce> "Ed's cousin apparently, he wanted me to keep her company."
- 5 08 19:11:30 <KamenWatcher> (Remember, you made the date after Augustus left I believe)
- 5 08 19:11:38 <KamenWatcher> <Ed's... Cousin?>
- 5 08 19:12:26 <KamenWatcher> <I... see.>
- 5 08 19:12:27 <Bruce> "Yeah, he said he has family business to take care of, I'm worried about what's going on, but if he thinks that this'll be fine.."
- 5 08 19:13:04 <KamenWatcher> <Well...> :I <Have fun I guess.>
- 5 08 19:13:20 <KamenWatcher> <And... uh... be careful.> D:>
- 5 08 19:13:46 <Bruce> "And uhh, you have any of that fiver I gave you still? I'm a bit low on money."
- 5 08 19:14:01 <KamenWatcher> >:I
- 5 08 19:14:15 Bruce raises his hands defensively, "Alright, you don't."
- 5 08 19:14:25 <KamenWatcher> Augustus reaches into a pocket and pulls out fifty cents
- 5 08 19:14:32 <KamenWatcher> Wait, a pocket?
- 5 08 19:14:35 <Emma> (Pockets? he has them?)
- 5 08 19:14:36 <Bruce> (oh god what)
- 5 08 19:14:50 <Bruce> (I did give them jackets, but are they wearing them still?)
- 5 08 19:15:08 <Emma> (that was...a long time ago)
- 5 08 19:15:12 <KamenWatcher> Sure, that makes more sense than him reaching into quantum space where he stores his money :B
- 5 08 19:15:26 <Emma> (like, when they were still 2nd form right?)
- 5 08 19:15:39 <Bruce> "Ahh, much appreciated. Next bounty we pull in I'll make sure everyone gets a round on me."
- 5 08 19:15:56 <KamenWatcher> Well, Dabras and kazams aren't that different body types. Little bigger but no tail
- 5 08 19:16:08 <Bruce> (yeah, that was in fire town)
- 5 08 19:16:34 <KamenWatcher> Anyway, I assume Bruce does not take his pokemon is why he's telling them this?
- 5 08 19:16:49 <Bruce> (Hrmm)
- 5 08 19:17:33 <KamenWatcher> (Keep in mind, Augustus WILL make smartass comments if you take him along :B)
- 5 08 19:17:59 <Bruce> (Yeah, I was considering bringing just Criosaidh, then I realized that Jet and Kelleigh would feel left out)
- 5 08 19:18:00 <Emma> (dont tell him that, you'll tempt him. which i'm assuming is the point of telling him :B)
- 5 08 19:18:16 <Bruce> (Let alone Eil, Scottie, and August)
- 5 08 19:19:22 <KamenWatcher> (As long as you don't leave them completely on their own, they won't mind you leaving them for a while I'm sure)
- 5 08 19:20:00 <KamenWatcher> (Especially if you leave them with Augustus, Int 7, babysitter extrordinaire to most of your party)
- 5 08 19:20:11 <Bruce> (I feel bad making him do that every time though :<)
- 5 08 19:20:49 <Emma> (do it anyway :B)
- 5 08 19:21:58 Bruce will bring Kelleigh, Criosaidh, and Eilidh along, letting the guys have the night to hang out
- 5 08 19:22:28 <KamenWatcher> Augustus leads them off to their next adventure.
- 5 08 19:23:13 <KamenWatcher> Alright, so
- 5 08 19:23:31 <KamenWatcher> You head over to the hotel where Emma is staying?
- 5 08 19:23:55 <Emma> (Sure, lets say i told him there :B probably better than meeting at a saloon)
- 5 08 19:24:08 <KamenWatcher> Okay.
- 5 08 19:24:20 <KamenWatcher> Bruce you walk into the Hotel.
- 5 08 19:24:58 Bruce walks in with Criosaidh on his shoulders, the other two walking along, the black glove covering his ice arm
- 5 08 19:24:58 <KamenWatcher> Emma there is a staircase, describe yourself decending it like you're freaking Scarlet o'hara and there was a sale at the curtain store.
- 5 08 19:28:17 <KamenWatcher> loading cutscene
- 5 08 19:28:21 <Bruce> (<:3c)
- 5 08 19:28:42 Emma descends the stairs slowly and smoothly, her heels making soft thumps as she descends. Her hair is done perfectly, tight curls swishing from side to side above her eyes. her neckline is adorned with a golden necklace, her gloved hands occupied with a matching parasol and handbag. She bites her full red lips softly as she sees Bruce, eyeing him curiously.
- 5 08 19:28:49 <Emma> (is that good enough kamen :B)
- 5 08 19:28:56 <KamenWatcher> (That'll do :3)
- 5 08 19:29:13 <Emma> ( http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l2xp1gZGG41qbkn6io1_500.jpg the dress if it REALLY needs to be posted a third time.)
- 5 08 19:30:37 Bruce tips the hat from Criosaidh's head, handing it back after she reaches up for it, adjusting his worn suit slightly
- 5 08 19:30:53 <Bruce> "Evenin' Emma, or do you prefer Miss Wilhelm?"
- 5 08 19:31:28 <Emma> "Just Emma, is fine." she says in a soft dignified voice. She smiles, "May I call you Bruce, Mr. Hasbrouck?"
- 5 08 19:31:52 Emma glances at Bruce's pokemon.
- 5 08 19:33:09 <KamenWatcher> They appear well-behaved.
- 5 08 19:33:30 <Bruce> "A' course, this is Criosaidh, Eilidh, and Kelleigh." Motioning at the Croagunk, Electabuzz, and Lucario
- 5 08 19:33:56 Emma murmurs her pleasure to 'meet' them, being polite.
- 5 08 19:34:01 <KamenWatcher> The Lucario seems to stick very close by Bruce when it sees you Edmund.
- 5 08 19:34:07 <KamenWatcher> *Emma
- 5 08 19:34:28 <KamenWatcher> (This is going to be a mistake I make all night :3)
- 5 08 19:34:46 <Emma> (well thankfully its not a secret OOC like nathan was :B)
- 5 08 19:34:57 <Emma> (and trust me, its hard using female pronouns)
- 5 08 19:35:52 <KamenWatcher> The other two pokemon seem fine with you, however
- 5 08 19:36:40 Emma gives Kelleigh a slightly longer glance than the others, then smiles to Bruce, "Shall we get going then?"
- 5 08 19:37:11 <Bruce> "Right, where were you interested in going? Have anything to eat today?"
- 5 08 19:38:26 <Emma> "A meal would be lovely."
- 5 08 19:39:22 <Bruce> "Well let's see what there is around town then. I'm just as new here as you are." He chuckles nervously
- 5 08 19:41:01 <KamenWatcher> Alright, so you head out to find a restaurant.
- 5 08 19:41:09 <Emma> She nods, taking his right arm, "I understand. That's fine. We can just wander until we find some place, I'm afraid I did not do much research either."
- 5 08 19:41:38 <KamenWatcher> There are a few interesting places. mostly delineated by prices
- 5 08 19:42:03 <KamenWatcher> the cheap-looking places, the sane looking places, and the super fancy places
- 5 08 19:42:30 <Bruce> "I have to admit, I- Uhh I'm not the most interesting one to talk to, least compared to what you'd probably hear."
- 5 08 19:43:47 <KamenWatcher> As far as the food, steaks and sausages and other hearty good things.
- 5 08 19:43:54 <Emma> "Well, perhaps you don't talk much about yourself." She lets bruce decide which of the three choices to go to, not commenting to let Bruce decide. She watches him carefully.
- 5 08 19:44:02 <Emma> talk about yourself enough*
- 5 08 19:44:32 <Emma> "So tell me, how did you fare once you entered the states?"
- 5 08 19:45:18 <Bruce> (The super fancy would be how much considering that it was 25 for a meal at a saloon)
- 5 08 19:46:03 <Emma> (he has prices ont he wiki)
- 5 08 19:46:59 <Emma> (A good meal at a Saloon: $.25 so likely something similar to a mid level.)
- 5 08 19:46:59 <KamenWatcher> In any case, The walk over takes a while, so talk amongst yourselves while I BRB (Bathroom)
- 5 08 19:47:45 <KamenWatcher> (And yeah, high end meals would be, like approaching and surpassing the 1$ to 1.50 mark)
- 5 08 19:47:47 <KamenWatcher> (BRB)
- 5 08 19:48:07 Emma smiles up at Bruce, awaiting her answer.
- 5 08 19:48:15 <Bruce> "Ahh, well I made my way west, was a fair bit younger before."
- 5 08 19:48:44 Bruce motions at the beard, "Bout the only thing that was different was less sense and better kept hair."
- 5 08 19:49:29 Emma chuckles, "Well, perhaps trimming your beard every once in a while wouldn't hurt." She smiles, "How old ARE you, Mr. Hasbrouck?"
- 5 08 19:50:20 <Bruce> "Well, if I'm keeping track right, eight an twenty, it'll be nine a bit after the new year."
- 5 08 19:50:34 Bruce rubs at his head, "Ha, where did everythin' go."
- 5 08 19:51:23 Emma nods, "Wandering the country?" She asks slyly.
- 5 08 19:52:08 <Bruce> "A fair bit just wandering, mostly trying to find the nest best place."
- 5 08 19:52:14 <Bruce> (Next best*)
- 5 08 19:53:00 <Bruce> "I know that Ed sends pokemon back to your family, what do you do?"
- 5 08 19:53:35 <Emma> "Oh, well...I'm on holiday."
- 5 08 19:53:55 <Emma> "Edmund is not the only family member collecting pokemon."
- 5 08 19:54:49 <Bruce> "Well it must be nice to run into one another like that while you're on holiday besides the-"
- 5 08 19:54:50 <Emma> "I do...contests. I haven't done one in a while though, and I'm a bit of an amateur..."
- 5 08 19:55:01 <Emma> "Hm?"
- 5 08 19:55:24 KamenWatcher has quit (Ping timeout)
- 5 08 19:55:33 <Emma> (ohnoes)
- 5 08 19:55:38 <Bruce> "Nothing, but Eil has pulled out pretty good for her two contests."
- 5 08 19:55:58 Bruce points at the booby ribbon she has proudly on the remains of her suit jacket
- 5 08 19:56:12 Emma claps softly for Eil.
- 5 08 19:57:50 Bruce smiles, "Your friends busy somewhere else in town?"
- 5 08 19:58:16 <Emma> "Y...Yes. With Edmund."
- 5 08 19:58:35 KamenWriter ([email protected]) has joined #WildWestmon
- 5 08 19:58:45 <KamenWriter> (Sorry about that)
- 5 08 19:58:52 <KamenWriter> What did I miss?
- 5 08 19:58:53 <Bruce> "Ahh, makes sense, Ohhh. Oh ok."
- 5 08 19:58:59 <Emma> http://pastebin.com/PYp6n114
- 5 08 19:59:40 <Bruce> "Ahh, well he'll take care of them, and whatever is going on, he's a great guy."
- 5 08 19:59:54 <Bruce> "Fair bit more dependable than most."
- 5 08 20:00:00 Emma nods slowly, "What do you think of Edmund, Bruce?"
- 5 08 20:01:39 <Bruce> "Ed?"
- 5 08 20:02:02 Bruce thinks, trying to decide if he should just ask if she knows
- 5 08 20:02:07 <KamenWriter> You approach the restaurant as Emma asks this
- 5 08 20:02:27 <Bruce> "Well, even though I'm, well, a wanderer, he's been my closest friend."
- 5 08 20:02:31 <Emma> (which did Bruce decide on)
- 5 08 20:02:40 <KamenWriter> (I dunno)
- 5 08 20:02:48 <Bruce> (Medium, 50 cents)
- 5 08 20:02:51 <KamenWriter> (But whichever one it is you're approaching it)
- 5 08 20:02:54 <Bruce> (Because I have nomoney)
- 5 08 20:03:04 <Emma> (I sympathize)
- 5 08 20:03:37 <KamenWriter> Ok
- 5 08 20:04:23 <KamenWriter> It's a respectable little place where the head waiter bows and shows you to your table. There are sounds of laughter and people having fun at other tables.
- 5 08 20:04:49 Bruce is glad the place isn't TOO upscale, he doesn't know all the proper table manners
- 5 08 20:05:00 Emma listens quietly to Bruce as they are seated.
- 5 08 20:05:22 <Emma> "Your closest, friend, you were saying?"
- 5 08 20:05:26 Bruce at least pulls the chair out for her, sitting down opposite
- 5 08 20:06:05 Emma feels a flutter in her chest as Bruce does so, but says nothing.
- 5 08 20:06:46 Bruce nods, "Scottie's been with me since I was a wee lad, and I honestly couldn't choose between them."
- 5 08 20:07:07 Bruce sighs, "Scottie wouldn't be too happy about hearing that." He chuckles
- 5 08 20:08:08 Emma mirrors his laughter, looking a bit happy.
- 5 08 20:09:20 <Emma> "Scottie is...your Machamp, was it?"
- 5 08 20:09:51 Bruce nods, "Real barrel of laughs to have around, and I don't think I'll ever get over his new beak."
- 5 08 20:10:47 Emma makes idle talk as they wait for the waiter.
- 5 08 20:11:05 <KamenWriter> The waiter does indeed appear
- 5 08 20:11:07 <Bruce> "It'd just been the two of us for nearin' 10 years, till we met up with Ed and the others. Slowly managed to pull these other misfits together." Bruce sits back and smiles, "Great fighters, better friends."
- 5 08 20:11:17 Bruce motions at the three pokemon that sit beside him
- 5 08 20:11:19 <KamenWriter> "Good evening. Here are your menus."
- 5 08 20:11:36 <KamenWriter> "I am Gerald, and I'll be your waiter this evening."
- 5 08 20:11:44 <KamenWriter> "Can I get you anything to drink to start?"
- 5 08 20:12:24 <Bruce> "Only if the lady wants something."
- 5 08 20:13:06 Emma takes hers, nodding to Bruce and the Waiter, "What do you have? On second thought...surprise me. Something light and sweet would be fine."
- 5 08 20:13:37 <Bruce> "Surprise me as well, but try not to surprise my wallet too much."
- 5 08 20:13:52 Bruce realizes what he said and turns red behind his beard
- 5 08 20:14:00 <KamenWriter> :I "Uh, alright."
- 5 08 20:14:16 Emma giggles, "He can probably handle something quite a bit heavier than me..."
- 5 08 20:14:23 <KamenWriter> He leaves, then
- 5 08 20:14:47 <KamenWriter> To get your drinks
- 5 08 20:15:13 Emma looks back at Bruce, "I'm happy to hear that."
- 5 08 20:15:40 <Bruce> "What about you? Anyone you travel with in p'ticular?"
- 5 08 20:16:44 <Emma> "They're...good friends. One in particular, I hold dear to me."
- 5 08 20:17:51 <Emma> "It feels like...they don't really know me though."
- 5 08 20:18:42 Bruce rubs at his left sleeve, "Do they not try to know you, you seem pretty easy to talk to ta me."
- 5 08 20:18:45 <Emma> She smiles, "To be honest...I'm a bit envious. Edmund gets to travel with you and his other friends." She looks at the menu, what looks good?
- 5 08 20:19:29 <Emma> "No it is more...I'm not sure if I can explain proper. My apologies."
- 5 08 20:20:37 <Bruce> "No need to apologize, you didn't do nothin' wrong."
- 5 08 20:20:48 <KamenWriter> Soon the waiter comes back with a light, fruity wine cocktail, and a... Water for the gentleman :I
- 5 08 20:20:52 <Bruce> (;-;)
- 5 08 20:21:20 <Emma> (i did say he could handle something heavier than I could :<)
- 5 08 20:21:30 <Bruce> (<:3c)
- 5 08 20:21:33 <Bruce> (it's fine)
- 5 08 20:21:38 <KamenWriter> (And he said not to strain his pursestrings too much :3)
- 5 08 20:21:42 <Bruce> (I did)
- 5 08 20:21:54 Bruce nods at the man, with a slight grin, "Thank ya."
- 5 08 20:22:06 Emma takes it, looking a bit apologetically at the water. She stirs the glass a bit, taking a sip.
- 5 08 20:22:43 <Bruce> "Ahh, it's nothing big, if I really need something to spice up the food, I've got what I need."
- 5 08 20:22:52 <Bruce> "Hopefully the food doesn't need it though."
- 5 08 20:23:23 <KamenWriter> "Speaking of food."
- 5 08 20:23:29 <KamenWriter> Says the waiter >:I
- 5 08 20:23:31 <Bruce> (oh god I thought he left)
- 5 08 20:23:35 <KamenWriter> "Are you ready to order?"
- 5 08 20:24:07 <Emma> "Ah...yes." (any idea of what they have, or should I just say 'steak' or 'chicken' or sommat :V)
- 5 08 20:24:25 <KamenWriter> (It's a basic steak and potatoes kind of place.)
- 5 08 20:24:55 <KamenWriter> (so you could specify a style of preparation if you want.)
- 5 08 20:25:25 <KamenWriter> (It will cost the same whatever you get)
- 5 08 20:25:37 Emma orders a steak, well done. with a Bayleaf salad on the side.
- 5 08 20:25:58 <Bruce> "I'll just take my steak red in the middle."
- 5 08 20:27:17 <Bruce> "And the meals for my three friends."
- 5 08 20:27:30 Emma makes a face of bliss when she sips the drink, its so sweet~
- 5 08 20:28:08 <Bruce> "Fairly bloody for Kelleigh, a salad for Criosaidh, and done for Eil, sound good?"
- 5 08 20:28:12 Bruce looks towards the three of them
- 5 08 20:28:57 <KamenWriter> "Alright, two slabs, one bloody, a salad for the lady, and two carnivore chow and one greens eater. right?"
- 5 08 20:29:03 <KamenWriter> He says this very quickly
- 5 08 20:29:04 Bruce nods
- 5 08 20:29:11 <KamenWriter> "Alright."
- 5 08 20:29:16 <KamenWriter> He heads off.
- 5 08 20:29:50 <KamenWriter> Continue you two.
- 5 08 20:29:50 <Emma> "You are very kind to your pokemon."
- 5 08 20:30:37 <Bruce> "Don't see why I shouldn't be, they're just as much people as other people are, and I like them a lot more than most."
- 5 08 20:31:16 <Emma> "Not too many people think of pokemon that way, of friends sure, but usually just as pets."
- 5 08 20:32:38 <Bruce> "I'm sure you treat your friends just as fine. I can't see anybody I've met from your family being really cruel to any of their friends."
- 5 08 20:33:28 <Emma> "But its just been Edmund, hasn't it?"
- 5 08 20:34:00 <Emma> "However, I would agree most love their pokemon."
- 5 08 20:34:11 Bruce grins, "Well yeah, but he seems to be a pretty good example."
- 5 08 20:34:26 Emma can't help but laugh at that.
- 5 08 20:35:38 <Emma> "Bruce...tell me more about yourself." She says sweetly, "Something even Edmund doesn't know."
- 5 08 20:35:57 Bruce scratches his head, "Something even Ed doesn't know."
- 5 08 20:38:19 Emma waits happily, enjoying herself, and taking another sip of the delightful drink.
- 5 08 20:39:09 <Bruce> "Family back in Scotland, last I heard I was an only child."
- 5 08 20:39:42 <Bruce> "Well, could have a brother now, dunno if Da has moved on from when my ma died."
- 5 08 20:40:20 <Emma> "Oh?"
- 5 08 20:40:50 <Bruce> "But my family has always been sort of dysfunctional, one side rowdy and fun, the other ordered and responsible."
- 5 08 20:40:58 <Bruce> (Wow he knows dysfunctional as a word?)
- 5 08 20:41:09 <Emma> (dammit I was going to say that :B)
- 5 08 20:41:22 Emma looks at Bruce curiously, then smiles, "I take it you are from the former?"
- 5 08 20:41:45 <Bruce> "Dunno what Ma would say, but I certainly aint the latter."
- 5 08 20:42:53 <Emma> "I think...you are very responsible. You keep your pokemon close to you, and Edmund and the others safe." She looks into Bruces eyes.
- 5 08 20:43:25 <Emma> "Ordered? ...probably not," She giggles.
- 5 08 20:43:30 <Emma> (Probably hot :B)
- 5 08 20:43:57 <KamenWriter> (:< It isn't even space and still it torments me)
- 5 08 20:44:00 <Bruce> "Nearly lost them both, I do want to keep them safe though..."
- 5 08 20:45:03 <Emma> "I think you do a fine job...from what Edmund has told me." She adds.
- 5 08 20:48:06 <KamenWriter> The waiter soon arrives with your food
- 5 08 20:48:26 <KamenWriter> "Here you are. Enjoy. The lighting should start soon."
- 5 08 20:48:43 <Emma> "I look forward to it, thank you. This looks delicious."
- 5 08 20:49:03 <KamenWriter> He leaves soon after.
- 5 08 20:49:14 Bruce smiles, "Ahh, it's something."
- 5 08 20:49:33 Emma takes the knife and fork and begins daintily cutting small bitesized pieces.
- 5 08 20:50:28 <KamenWriter> Your pokemon got some cuts of meat as well, which they begin to devour. Except Crio, who is all MMMMMDAMN GREENS
- 5 08 20:52:45 Emma eats in peaceful silence, comfortable with it.
- 5 08 20:54:28 Bruce eats happily, not rations for once :D
- 5 08 20:54:47 <Emma> "Would you be interested in meeting your brother? Or is he simply...theoretical?"
- 5 08 20:55:39 <Bruce> "Oh, dunno if it would even be a boy if I had a sibling."
- 5 08 20:56:31 Bruce smiles, "It'd be nice to have someone to just come to you for advice, like a big brother."
- 5 08 20:56:49 <Bruce> "Course that aint gonna happen, for me at least. You have any younger siblings?"
- 5 08 20:57:44 <Emma> "Oh...no. Many siblings is a common occurance for my family, but I'm afraid I have no brothers or sisters."
- 5 08 20:59:04 Bruce nods, "If Ma hadn't passed, I'd probably be the big brother to a whole traincar of redheaded menaces."
- 5 08 21:00:00 Emma laughs, and takes another drink from her glass, "I'm sure that would be quite a sight. So many little bruces...Tell me, have you ever thought of...children?"
- 5 08 21:01:32 <Bruce> "Didn't really think I'd find anyone, then...phew, that whole mess. It got me thinking, don't know if it'll ever happen though."
- 5 08 21:02:44 <Bruce> "When I first started out, I was happy I didn't have anything holding me down. Recently? It'd be nice to have someplace to go back to, someplace that I know how they feel."
- 5 08 21:03:09 <KamenWriter> "Ladies and gentlemen!" you hear from the entrance of the restaurant
- 5 08 21:03:20 Emma nods, about to say something, but then looks over to the voice.
- 5 08 21:03:51 <KamenWriter> "It you would please put out the candles and lamps on your tables, tonights lighting will begin."
- 5 08 21:05:09 Emma turns the lamp off if Bruce doesnt.
- 5 08 21:05:39 Bruce lets Emma unless she seems extra flammable, in which case he uses his left arm, "Fire and I don't really get along..."
- 5 08 21:05:57 <KamenWriter> After a moment, the entire restaurant is plunged into darkness.
- 5 08 21:06:00 Librarian has quit (Client exited)
- 5 08 21:06:02 Emma giggles, "So I've heard." She whispers.
- 5 08 21:06:09 <KamenWriter> Everyone has gone quiet in anticipation
- 5 08 21:06:13 Librarian ([email protected]) has joined #WildWestmon
- 5 08 21:07:01 <KamenWriter> And then, with a flicker, rows of white bulbs you might have assumed were more oil lamps in wall fixtures suddenly come on.
- 5 08 21:07:50 <KamenWriter> The room is thrown into a brighter light than it had been in before, and the patrons of the restaurant can't help but Ooooh and ahhhh and applaud for a moment before going back to their dinner.
- 5 08 21:08:13 Emma does the same, letting out a soft gasp.
- 5 08 21:08:21 <KamenWriter> The waiters then circulate around relighting all the lamps and candles.
- 5 08 21:09:11 Bruce breathes out slowly, "I'll be."
- 5 08 21:09:54 <Emma> "I never expected so many to be lit up at once..."
- 5 08 21:10:32 <Bruce> "Guess I never expected Lords to be put into little apricorns either, seems like things are changing..."
- 5 08 21:12:30 <KamenWriter> Now that the lightbulbs are lit up, you can sometimes see orange faces appear and disappear from time to time, saying hello to diners. 8D
- 5 08 21:12:49 Emma nods, and continues eating her meal, she giggles when she spots the rotom.
- 5 08 21:13:27 <Bruce> "These honestly don't seem too much like ghosts."
- 5 08 21:14:24 <Emma> "They're just a different type of ghost."
- 5 08 21:16:19 Andromeda has quit (Quit: Where am I stuffed? You must explain clearly for me)
- 5 08 21:16:54 Bruce nods, "Still expected the town to be a fair bit different."
- 5 08 21:16:54 <Emma> (did i DC)
- 5 08 21:16:58 <Emma> (nope)
- 5 08 21:17:06 <KamenWriter> (no, you're still there)
- 5 08 21:17:17 <KamenWriter> (You two are just slow conversationalists :B)
- 5 08 21:17:38 <Emma> "Oh? Did you expect it to be like the ancient god?" She muses.
- 5 08 21:18:10 <Bruce> "You know of him?"
- 5 08 21:19:05 Bruce looks surprised, "I didn't expect them to worship Thor or even close to that, but at least some respect."
- 5 08 21:19:29 <Emma> "Well, I know what i've learned in books."
- 5 08 21:20:13 Emma gets close to finishing her meal and her drink, she's tried to be careful not to make a mess.
- 5 08 21:22:48 <KamenWriter> (Boy, I'm starting to wish Bruce DID bring August along)
- 5 08 21:23:00 <KamenWriter> (So we could fill these awkward pauses :B)
- 5 08 21:23:09 <Bruce> "You something of a researcher?"
- 5 08 21:24:20 <Emma> "Oh no. I'm just well learned I suppose." She chuckles, taking another drink.
- 5 08 21:24:34 <Emma> (you could end the meal :B)
- 5 08 21:25:10 Bruce finishes up his steak, "Another thing I can look to Ed for, a fair bit smarter than the lot of us."
- 5 08 21:25:50 <KamenWriter> Alright, so you finish up your plates, and the waiter comes along to collect the dishes. He hands you the check, Bruce.
- 5 08 21:26:11 Emma finishes the last of the sweet nectar, asking for the name of the drink, and makes a note of it.
- 5 08 21:26:47 <KamenWriter> (Some newfangled invention called a "Wine cooler" darndest thing :B)
- 5 08 21:26:47 Bruce drains the last of the water
- 5 08 21:27:30 <Emma> (:B)
- 5 08 21:27:59 <Emma> 1d20-2 for shits and giggles.
- 5 08 21:28:00 <DiceMaid-9001> Emma, for shits and giggles.: 4 [1d20=6]
- 5 08 21:28:46 <KamenWriter> Well, you have about ten minutes of electric light left. What do?
- 5 08 21:29:20 Bruce pays, and sits there, "The lights are fancy, but I still prefer the more reliable."
- 5 08 21:29:35 <Emma> "You mean Candles and fire?"
- 5 08 21:29:44 <Bruce> "And others."
- 5 08 21:30:04 <Emma> "Ah, I thought you said you didn't do well with fire." She teases.
- 5 08 21:30:15 <Bruce> "Well, we have an odd arrangement."
- 5 08 21:30:29 <Emma> "So I see."
- 5 08 21:32:09 Emma glances and sighs, "So I suppose we should start heading back?"
- 5 08 21:32:14 <Bruce> "I don't get mad at it for hurting me, mostly just my fault. Do you want to go for a walk?"
- 5 08 21:32:20 <Emma> "Oh, Yes."
- 5 08 21:32:23 <Emma> (:B)
- 5 08 21:32:35 <Emma> "A walk would be lovely."
- 5 08 21:33:02 Bruce stands up, picking up Criosaidh and setting her pack on his shoulders while the others get situated as well
- 5 08 21:33:24 <Bruce> "The town is nice, but honestly, little lifeless for me."
- 5 08 21:34:06 Bruce helps her up and starts towards the exit
- 5 08 21:34:37 <KamenWriter> Says Bruce as a light bulb blows a raspberry at him.
- 5 08 21:34:50 Emma stays attached to his arm, She giggles at the lightbulb.
- 5 08 21:34:54 Bruce silently changes his arm to electricity and touches the lightbulb
- 5 08 21:35:17 <KamenWriter> 8D omnomnom
- 5 08 21:35:30 <Bruce> "Have a good night you little guys."
- 5 08 21:35:33 <KamenWriter> (yay Ergovore :3)
- 5 08 21:36:34 <KamenWriter> So, the two of you go walking
- 5 08 21:36:39 <Emma> "You are quite talented."
- 5 08 21:36:58 <KamenWriter> As you do, you see that the street is very well lit up by the streetlamps which line the streets.
- 5 08 21:37:04 <KamenWriter> streets
- 5 08 21:37:04 Bruce walks along, "Wouldn't call it talent, more like stubborn."
- 5 08 21:37:25 <Bruce> (And my arm is covered with the glove, as to not freak you out)
- 5 08 21:37:33 <KamenWriter> There is a small park nearby.
- 5 08 21:38:33 Bruce walks towards the park, "Doing those contests, that takes talent."
- 5 08 21:38:58 <Bruce> (Note that everyone but Bruce has won a contest)
- 5 08 21:39:00 <Bruce> (;-;)
- 5 08 21:39:04 <Emma> "Oh, yes I suppose but...I don't actually have any of my own pokemon, with me."
- 5 08 21:39:28 <Bruce> "Doesn't make you any less for it. It's like a partnership."
- 5 08 21:39:41 <Bruce> "You make your own name, just as they make theirs."
- 5 08 21:40:52 Emma nods, walking a bit closer to Bruce.
- 5 08 21:41:56 Bruce looks around for a tree or something to sit on, considering Emma more than himself
- 5 08 21:42:11 <KamenWriter> Kelleigh pushes her way between you two :I
- 5 08 21:43:07 Bruce rubs at her head, "Hey Kelleigh, I know you're still here."
- 5 08 21:43:38 Emma looks at kelleigh with a bit of a pout.
- 5 08 21:43:51 <Bruce> "We can spar after we get back, that make you feel better?"
- 5 08 21:45:00 <KamenWriter> :< She leans into your pets, and stays close.
- 5 08 21:45:47 Emma attempts to transfer to the other side of bruce.
- 5 08 21:46:13 * Gorbash is now known as Gorby|Away
- 5 08 21:46:25 Bruce holds onto Kelleigh, looking to his left, "Emma, you be alright to sit someplace in that dress?"
- 5 08 21:46:57 <Emma> "I suppose..." She looks for a park bench.
- 5 08 21:47:11 <KamenWriter> There is a park bench
- 5 08 21:48:09 Emma brushes her hand on the seat before she sits.
- 5 08 21:48:22 Bruce sits down, waiting for the electric lights to go out
- 5 08 21:49:33 <KamenWriter> One stares at you for a moment. OoO before smiling and moving on, assuming you want privacy.
- 5 08 21:50:00 <KamenWriter> About 3 minutes of electric lights left.
- 5 08 21:50:45 <Bruce> "The strangest thing, I usually get so stuttering and awkward when I'm trying to be comfortable around people."
- 5 08 21:51:05 Emma leans her head on Bruce's side. "You are being fine...You are a wonderful person."
- 5 08 21:51:56 Bruce looks over and sighs, "I'm really not, but I'm sure you'll find somebody who is."
- 5 08 21:52:21 <Emma> "So Warm, so kind..." she looks up to him, blushing a bit, "Strong, and beautiful."
- 5 08 21:52:40 Bruce puts his arm around her shoulders, "Hey..- uhh."
- 5 08 21:53:20 <Emma> "...Sorry."
- 5 08 21:53:28 Emma looks down.
- 5 08 21:53:56 <Bruce> "Hey, chin up, nothing to apologize to me for, I just couldn't if I wanted to."
- 5 08 21:54:47 <Emma> "Bruce...I'm sorry. I was too forward."
- 5 08 21:54:59 <Emma> "You barely know me..."
- 5 08 21:55:37 Bruce nods, "To be fair, you're beautiful as well."
- 5 08 21:56:01 <Bruce> "It's just that, I have to sort my own ends out even if we did know each other better."
- 5 08 21:56:30 <Emma> "I wish...we Could get to know each other better."
- 5 08 21:58:46 <Bruce> "Oh..."
- 5 08 21:59:13 <Emma> "The woman you have...what does she mean to you?"
- 5 08 22:00:25 <Bruce> "She's in a bad position because of me, it wouldn't be...right, for me to just leave like that."
- 5 08 22:02:00 <Emma> "As long...as I can be like this, even for a little while. I'll be happy...I'm sorry I'm being so forward about this."
- 5 08 22:03:39 <Bruce> "Well there's nothing wrong with just being like this."
- 5 08 22:05:17 <Emma> "Alright...thank you Bruce."
- 5 08 22:05:24 <Bruce> (lights out yet?)
- 5 08 22:05:30 <KamenWriter> Soon after you say that, the lights go out
- 5 08 22:05:58 <KamenWriter> It's quite dark now, but as your eyes adjust, the starts begin to come back into view.
- 5 08 22:07:18 Bruce pulls his arm back out from her shoulders, "I wanted to show you this." He stands and walks around to her left, sitting either on the armrest or edge of the bench, putting his right arm around her and shoving his left arm up as the flames lick around the ghost arm
- 5 08 22:08:24 Emma smiles at the arm. "I like you the way you are Bruce. You can't scare me off that easily."
- 5 08 22:10:01 <Bruce> "Oh, I wasn't trying to scare you off. I could do that a lot easier other ways. This was me wanting to show you the way fire seems to live with me."
- 5 08 22:10:17 Emma nods, listening to his explanation.
- 5 08 22:10:35 <Bruce> "Same way that people seem to live with one another, they may hurt you every now and then, but when you seem to focus in the night, they're there for you, burning brightly."
- 5 08 22:11:37 <Bruce> "I'm sure that if you go to your friends and talk to them, really talk to them, not in some busy bustling city, maybe not the dead of night. Just a dimly lit time. You can burn bright. Burn bright blue."
- 5 08 22:12:23 Emma sighs happily, "That was beautiful."
- 5 08 22:15:09 Emma looks in the distance, "Shall we...get going back to the hotel? There is something I need to talk to you about...in Private."
- 5 08 22:15:47 Bruce nods, "Alright."
- 5 08 22:16:19 <KamenWriter> Alright
- 5 08 22:16:45 <KamenWriter> So you get going back to the hotel. It is getting quite late by the time you're back.
- 5 08 22:18:05 Emma tries to take Bruce up to his hotel room, without his pokemon.
- 5 08 22:18:08 Bruce sets Criosaidh down by Kelleigh, "Eil, watch over these two and make sure nothing gets broken, I'll be right back."
- 5 08 22:18:32 <KamenWriter> :< goes Kelleigh, but she stays downstairs with Eil and Crio
- 5 08 22:19:10 Emma shuts the door after Bruce, and goes over to sit on the bed, trying to find the right way to begin.

- 5 08 22:19:45 Bruce stands there, huh, nice room
- 5 08 22:20:32 <Emma> "Bruce I'm...about to tell you something...please, just please don't leave until I've finished..."
- 5 08 22:20:40 <Bruce> "Alright."
- 5 08 22:20:53 <Emma> "Maybe it was those words in the park. Maybe its the alcohol. Maybe some combination of both..."
- 5 08 22:21:41 Becky ([email protected]) has left #WildWestmon
- 5 08 22:21:43 Emma breathes in.
- 5 08 22:23:09 <Emma> "Bruce I...I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said you're moving in with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air.
