[Open, but directed toward gym leaders]

[pain_split]

To my fellow gym leaders, has anyone heard what we are doing here in Sheercliff? I hear that he has gone missing and the League has been almost silent since the Team Rocket post on the trainer forums....I mean honestly. I hate this town, can't we just move on?

No one is forcing you to stay, you know.

[pain_split]

We have to stay, Dist. It's league required. I still want to take him on when he returns...he owes me a battle.

[thereaper]

...Why do we have to stay?

[pain_split]

Because we are the eyes and ears of the League...we are figure heads and suppose to 'set an example'. At least that's what the letter the League sent me said...did you not get one?

[thereaper]

Oh, that? I thought it was a stupid reason so I ignored it.

[pain_split]

Well we all knew you would.

[thereaper]

You'd think they'd learn to leave me alone.

[pain_split]

I know, we keep trying to tell them, but they just want to bug you as much as us. Silly.

[thereaper]

They do! It's ridiculous. Rest assured, I won't be staying any longer than my business here requires.

[pain_split]

Well I'm glad to hear. How is Sheercliff treating you?

[headshotsavvy]

[Alright, Sniper is biased because he's a Flying specialist and likes high places.]

I don't see any reason too, Viktor, mate. Then we'd just have to backtrack, n'awl the new trainers would have t'do the cliffs twice. I don't see that makin' anyone happy, d'you?

[pain_split]

True...but all these bells going off before the sun comes up, it's annoying for people that are trying to get some rest. I mean honestly, who wants to spend all their time doing classes with fighting type pokemon.

[headshotsavvy]

Moight not be yer cup a' tea, but other's moight loik it. Y'can piss off if ya want, but I'm stayin'.

[pain_split]

I'm not leaving until he shows up, trust me. This town is just boring, and the league needs to hurry it up already.

[headshotsavvy]

[Jeez Viktor get your panties out of that wad that they are most definitely in.]

Perhaps if ya' got out a bit it wouldn't be so boring. Go find someone to battle or summat.

[He knows you, Viktor. You are sitting in your room writing Dark Poetry on your livejournal in your diary.]

[pain_split]

I have been going out! Its just ridiculous how to get around. Thank goodness for my Drifblim, I don't know how else I would be able to get anything done. Not to mention the food here is meager and terrible.

[WHINE WHINE COMPLAIN COMPLAIN >8C]

[headshotsavvy]

Y'sound like Dist.

[When he was a young man they ate DIRT and lived in holes in the ground! No but really. Yeesh.]

[pain_split]

...Oh god I do don't I. But this place is pretty cruddy...I mean honestly, rope ladders? What are we? Cave men?!

[SLAPPED IN THE FACE WITH A MAGIKARP.]

[headshotsavvy]

Mate, y'know my feelings on havin' to do a little bit a' work to get a payoff.

[HE IS TRYING TO IMPART FATHERLY WISDOM UNTO YOU. RECEIVE IT.]

[pain_split]

I agree, I built my gym from the ground up, so I understand, trust me. But this is ridiculous.

[YOU'RE NOT MY REAL DAD D8]

[dudeihaveagym]

Jeez, Viktor. You complain like a frickin' twelve-year-old. I've been climbing the stairs and ladders and stuff all week, it's good for your lungs you know.

[pain_split]

Wha! I am not! This town is just ridiculous! Ridiculous I say! Why would anyone live here. Someone let me know when HE gets back. I'll be staying in the Inn until then.

[RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE]

[dudeihaveagym]

C'mon, lighten up. Doesn't the inn have an arena? I'm sure you could find a trainer or two to battle you.

[Ask for a rematch I will kick your butt this time come on ask for it.]

[pain_split]

Perhaps...My pokemon do seem a little restless. Perhaps I could find a trainer or two to utterly destroy.

[Lets peak into his imagination for second: oh god he is destroying everything and laughing like a maniac. HE WILL RULE SUPREME!]

[dudeihaveagym]

Huh, really? 'Cause you haven't been getting any farther in the tournaments than me. Maybe back in Lumeloch was a fluke.

[Skyler can roll her eyes so hard it must come from being daddy's little girl.]

[pain_split]

Clearly! Not to mention the Pokemon were obviously not my own! I didn't have much time to train it. Hey! If you want to insult my skills, maybe you and I should battle. Because obviously you don't understand my real training abilities, Sklyer.

[HE IS HUFFING, OH HUFF HUFF FUUUUME]

[dudeihaveagym]

Obviously.

[Oh he has DONE IT NOW.]

I'll battle you any time, anywhere.

[pain_split]

Well fine! Then I suppose you won't mind battling me this evening?!

[dudeihaveagym]

Tonight?

Do I have anything going on tonight? Uh...

Tonight is fine! Better prepare to lose!

[pain_split]

Fantastic! Meet me at the Pokemon center, I'll arrange for a location.

[quakekid]

[Laughing at you so hard right now Viktor. You have no idea. He is totally stalking your other conversations. It's hilarious. Managing not to show it though!]

Man, you'd think you'd never run the circuit before. It's not that bad here. And it's not like we can move on anyway. The trainers would all have to come back here to get the badge for the league, and I can't see half of 'em appreciating that. We have some whiners this time around.

[pain_split]

Well I know that Shawn. You probably like it here, this is still your neck of the woods....rather mountians. This place just isn't home to me...especially Sheercliff. Quakesberg was nice, dark, underground, mysterious...this place is just down right dangerous.

I hate coming here.

[WHINEWHINTEDARKNESSSORRROOOOOW]

[quakekid]

Then why don't you just go on and come back when you're needed? It's not like you have to hang around until the tournament.

[Duh. You whine worse than Rava when she's been underground for too long]

[pain_split]

Because where else am I going to go? I live in Abeo, remember? Do you know how long it takes to just fly to Abeo. Not to mention Drifblim is loving it here and I doubt he'll want to leave.

[LE SIGGGGGGH, LETS IMAGINE A DRIFBLIM FLOATING AROUND THE CLIFF FACE IN A HEAVY BREEZE. BAWWWWW]

[quakekid]

[You know, he kind of hopes Skyler kicks your butt. It might do you good!]

You complain too much. [Srsly. He's supposed to be the teenager here, not you]

[pain_split]

YEAH?! Well....whatever

[Nice comeback Viktor...]

[quakekid]

[...please hold, laughing at that just a little too hard to talk]

[pain_split]

Are...ARE YOU LAUGHING?!

[VIKTOR IS NOT AMUSED. HUFF HUFF HUFFY MCHUFFERSON]

[quakekid]

[Uh. Duh?]

Noooo, not all oh mighty ghost-leader. You can't hear anything from me, nope! [And laughing again]

[pain_split]

What?! HOW?! Youuu! I can't even....WHY! BAH!

[Huff huff huff]

I WILL TAKE YOU ON LITTLE MAN, DON'T THINK I CAN'T DESTROY.

[quakekid]

[Manages to stop laughing, barely]

You want me to kick your butt, I'll happily take that challenge! My Pokemon were getting bored.

[pain_split]

FINE! When I finish up with cleaning up Skyler, I will shoot you a message...

[quakekid]

Looking forward to it! [Just a cheerily as the rest, but probably more true than the rest]
