Mingle Post

[kenfrompokemon]

[If you're listening to the radio today, there's a special announcement in the middle of the afternoon, after Ken's usual program has ended.]

-We interrupt this program for some special news! In Ohritori Island, a large swarm of Cutiefly have appeared in Route 2, near the Berry Farm! It seems they've drifted in from Alola. We ask any trainers to help with managing the swarm. A Cutiefly's natural habitat is in the Wildflower Cape, in Route 4, so we'd appreciate the help in relocating them there! So if you catch a lot of Cutiefly, please release them in Route 4 instead of anywhere else! I'd love to be there and do that myself, but I'm all the way at Chura Islands...

[Ken goes on to describe Cutiefly, it's habits and habitats. But maybe you're not listening to the radio, and doing something else instead?]

[[ooc: This is a mingle post, so I probably won't be replying much myself! If you've got anything you've been thinking about having your characters doing, but don't want to make a whole post about it, this is for you! Or you can go play around with Cutiefly. Maybe you'll encounter a shiny? The chances of meeting them are higher during swarms after all!]]

[That gets a smile back from Kam. One that isn't his usual, haughty smile.]

In any case, I'm sure you know how to take care of yourself even without me interfering.

[Even if he suspects Gold getting into shenanigans as one do, down the line but he won't say it outright.]

[gold_drum]

[That's a lovely smile, Gold notes.]

Yep!

[Gold gives a proud thumbs-up.]

I can cook and clean and do laundry!

[...Which might not be the kind of "taking care of himself" that Kam meant.]

[golddream]

[That wasn't what he meant but gosh dang, Gold looked so accomplished. He wasn't going to rain on that parade. Instead, there's a chuckle as he stuffed his hands into his pockets.]

Well, not everyone can go around and do that. Sounds like you're set to me.

[gold_drum]

[He got a chuckle! Gold grins, proud of himself, and stuffs his hands into his pockets too.]

Yep, I'm pretty great! Anyway, it was great meeting you, but I gotta get going soon. Wanna trade numbers?

[Gold brings out his Pokegear and shows it off.]

You got one of these? I got this modded at a shop in town recently so I can save a whole bunch of numbers now!

[Gold had been living with room for only ten numbers for so long, and meeting so many people in Ultern really put a strain on that storage space. He's assuming Kam's from a world with a similar level of technology as his, too.]

[golddream]

[At Gold's suggestion, Kam seemed to be considering it. Digging into his pocket he'll pull out a Pokegear--one that's identical to Gold's but that's probably the least surprising thing all things considered.]

Alright, sure. It'll come in handy having you on dial anyway.

[He only has so much space for numbers too but that wasn't any concern as of yet.]

My number's this--

[Kam will proceed to give out his number to Gold.]

[gold_drum]

[Same model of Pokegear, makes sense. Gold's not actually sure if his Silver has a Pokegear, but if he does, that's exactly how he'd expect it to look. He inputs Kam's number and saves it under the name "Nugget".]

Okay, got it! And my number is-

[And Gold gives his number to Kam, as well.]

[golddream]

[Oh? Same hat, because Kam is most definitely inputting Gold's name as "Nugget" too. Can't be too safe even if Ultern is very safe.]

Call me if you need anything. I'll be doing the same.

[gold_drum]

[Gold had a feeling he would!]

Yeah, I will! See you around!

[Gold waves, and begins to walk away. He promised to be home at Professor Banyan's lab by dinner, after all. He would've told Kam where that is, and maybe even invited him to dinner, but after that stalker incident, he's resistant to tell anyone where he lives, even someone around his own age.]

[golddream]

[And little did Gold realize he had gained yet another Stalker the end--

Just kidding, as Kam will simply give a wave and walk off. He still had a lot of investigating of his own to do. If Gold needed him, he'd know what to do.]
