[There's a lot of interference in the audio.]

I AM FLYING. I AM FLYING ON A DRAGON. I THINK I WIN FOR CURRENTLY DOING THE COOLEST THING RIGHT NOW.

[To say Ellis is surprised that he's getting this message is an understatement. But not in a bad way! This is honestly the most exciting thing he's heard in a while. He's been too busy trying to find a boyfriend for his pig that he's barely done much involving other Pokemon, let alone dragons. So this is really cool!]

Whoa, holy shit! For real? It must be real, I can hear the clouds!

[He means the wind. Same difference.]

I'm so jealous!

[Have you been catching Pokemon, Ellis? Gosh. Get on that shit.]

It is true! And it is soooooo cool! I bet when you trained a dragon that can fly, you'll be able to do it too!

[It's not her dragon, but same diff. She's lucky to have friends here that already have dragons and higher leveled Pokemon.]

[He needs to, it's true. But gosh, pig boyfriends are important. And he's been trying to make sure he doesn't end up starving, too. So that means jobs... Pokemon is hard and nobody understands.]

Aw damn, I sure hope so! I really wanna get me a dragon as soon as I can. It'd be so cool! Maybe if we ever run into each other, I could ride yours? I mean, if I don't have one on my own by then. Mostly I just got a pig.

Not that my pig ain't awesome! Cuz you never saw an awesomer pig than she is.

[Terezi has the luck that she's surrounded by friends who don't want her starving.]

You should start catching Pokebeasts! It gets easier when your team starts expanding! It also means that you aren't relying on just one to get around.

I'll show you all the dragons I have when we meet. [She only has one right now, though. But there's nothing wrong with variety.]

Well I got some eggs, that counts doesn't it? They're just gonna take a while to hatch.

And... I totally can't wait for that, it's gonna be awesome!

Eggs are supposed to be better than catching Pokbeasts in the wild! They can learn extra moves from breeding.

You better work hard until then! No slacking!

Are they? I didn't know that. Should I go buy more eggs then, ya think?

Me? Slack off? Haha, you're silly! There ain't no way I'ma slack off. Mamma didn't raise no slacker!

That depends on you. Eventually you'll be the one selling eggs!

Good! I only talk to people who deserve my attention.

Yo, Ellis! Got my badges! I'm all set to fly out. Where're you guys stayin' at?

Oh, sweet! Man I was beginnin' to think ya didn't wanna come see me no more! We're in Violet City, y'know where that is, right?

Pfff, naw. Just got caught up in some things over on the Kanto side. Violet's like...three days west of Goldenrod, right? Three and some change, I think. I could make it over in about...nine hours?

[His voice quiets for a moment while he thinks out loud.]

Take the six hour Magnet Line from Saffron station, fly out from Goldenrod...assumin' fair skies and good breeze it might knock out half an hour or two...factor in the speed Capell can fly at... Sounds about right.

Yeah, about nine hours. Give or take. You sure I wouldn't be a bother?

[NINE HOURS? Holy shit, that's so long. Ugh. He guesses he can be patient, but now that the prospect of Demyx getting there is a thing, he's excited. Because yay, new friend!]

Aw man, nine hours? That's so long! But of course ya ain't gonna be a bother. Why would ya be? That's just silly.

Pfff, s'nine hours split on a comfy train an' then flying through the sky for me. I ain't complainin' at all, there. Heh. Course, on your end it's waitin' on the ground all borin' like. Can't blame ya for bein' none too happy about it. So, I guess...where should I meet ya? Near the center, or?

You're damn right it's all borin' like! 'specially when I'm excited as shit right now. But 'least you're travelin' in style, so I guess it ain't that bad. I'll keep my eyes peeled for you flyin' in and meet ya wherever ya land.

Well, heck man. If we ever need to go anyplace together or anythin' I'll get a spare saddle. I mean, Ska'll evolve into a big dragon one day. We could all hop on the big guy an' just...I dunno, go places. Where-ever the wind takes us. How's that sound?

Holy shit that sounds awesome. I'mma hold you to that! We could fly all over the world and catch all the Pokemon and go on adventures and... Oh man, I'm so excited!

[Demyx attempts very hard to hold back a completely appropriate 'apfff' for the moment. Something about Elli's enthusiasm and cheer at the prospect feels infectious, really.]

There's some really crazy stuff to see up in Kanto, if I remember right. An' Johto's got a bunch'a, like, ruins and sites like that. No shortage'a places to be, y'know?

Whoa, we should go to the ruins! I've always wanted to be one'a them whatchamacallits... Archaeologists like in Jurassic Park! It'd be great, don'tcha think?

You should tell me another Keith story, Ellis. [It's more so a demand than anything, but you wouldn't say no to such a precious little thing like her, right?]

[WELL this is new. Never in his life has he ever been approached to tell anyone a Keith story. He almost doesn't even know what to to. How do you just tell a Keith story without prompting? Shit. Suddenly it's like he has stage fright or something. WHAT DO.]

Uhhh...

[That's what do, apparently.]

What do you mean uhhh? I asked you to tell me a story. It sounds like you have a lot of them, so you should easily be able to tell me a new one.

[Come on, Ellis. She wants to hear a real good one!]

Well it's just I ain't ever been asked to tell anybody one, so... This is just surprisin' and all!

[But HE'S THINKING. He's thinking real hard. Give him a moment.]

I am asking right now though. So I am expecting an answer that includes a story of some kind!

[She's waiting.]

I know ya are! Just... Uhh...

[Oh!]

I ever tell ya about the time he got run over by a lawn mower?

[Oh boy! A story. She hasn't heard this one before. Except-]

What's a lawn mower?

...Ya don't know what a lawn mower is? How can ya not know what a lawn mower is? It's the thing that cuts grass that ya either push or ride on, if you're fancy and shit.

Because letting the blind girl try and work machinery to cut grass is exactly what you want to do!

I lived in a tree, anyways. [She's hardcore.]

... Oh. I kinda... Forget that sometimes, sorry 'bout that.

But hey, whoa, ya lived in a tree? That's so cool! I think ya should tell me more about it.

I did! I lived in a forest and my hive was the best! It was a tree...house? [I think that's what you call them. Terezi squints a little.]

But you have to finish your story first before I tell you mine!

Hey, Ellis. If my calculations are correct, I should reach Violet City sometime within the next four hours if Ranger holds the pace I've set. I'm sending Demyx a message to the same effect. Get back to me when you can!

[If Ellis's reply comes a little late, it's because he was asleep, though the gear woke him up. It just takes a moment for him to grab it. When he sees it, he's instantly wide awake.

Whoa really??! Oh man I didnt realize youd be here so soon! Holy shit. I cant wait to see you! This is real exciting oh man! I think we should get somethin to eat together

I mean not like a date! I mean as friends! And then we can do other shit if you want.

Ellis, you are too much. Breakfast sounds great after this long ride. I may need half an hour to get a room and get everyone situated and fed after I get in. After that? You're on. You'll have to show me all the sights, hm?
