003 ♝ Text | Action for Goldenrod

It's been a bit quiet as of late, hasn't it?

I wonder how long it'll be this way.

[It's short, simple and to the point. A good way to gauge reactions from people -- who likes the quiet, who misses excitement, who is skeptical it'll last much longer. In any case, it's time for him to get on with his business.]

[For those in Goldenrod, you may see him hopping rather merrily along. He may be empty handed, or you may see him carrying four very different eggs! Or maybe you see him in that in-between, while he's at the Breeding Centre picking up his order.]

[Whatever it is... he wants to talk to you. He wants to see what you think of all these things! Flag him down, trip over his feet, ask him on a date... Izaya won't mind.]

If you don't have hope you're pretty much left with nothing and that sounds too sad.

[parkour]

So long as you keep in mind that it's only a matter of time before something strange - perhaps bad, depending on how you look at it - happens once again. [And this is giving him a good idea of her character, so color him intrigued.]

[walkinthruwalls]

I couldn't forget. But you can't have anything good if you don't look or at least hope for it, right?

[parkour]

You can have plenty of good - it's not as if it never happens, after all. But it won't prevent the other things from happening, either.

[walkinthruwalls]

True, it just seems that bad can overshadow the good, hence why I like to stay hopeful.

[parkour]

Do you really think the bad overshadows the good here in Johto?

[walkinthruwalls]

I don't know about here but at home it does.

[parkour]

Most of what you know from your home is null here.

[walkinthruwalls]

Maybe after I've been here longer I can compare it.

[parkour]

I'm sure you'll be able to soon enough.
