A Sinister Harvest!

Once again the season for the Harvesting Bonds festival has arrived. All over the islands people and Pokemon were dressing up in colorful, autumn themed costumes for the occasion.

However the main event, down in Gilterrace Town had yet to be completed. There were still people out still preparing for the upcoming festival. The town was buzzing with activity, as last minute decorations were being made out of pumpkins. There were even a number of people fussing over where to place them among the other decorations that have already been set out.

From the laughter, and smiles from people they were all clearly enjoying their time together. Aside from decorating people could be seen helping out Pokemon into their costumes. A playful wind brushes by--carrying the scent of food throughout the town

Click.

A sudden sound that would only be audible enough if things were silent, went off. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, except one of the pumpkins seemingly lit up. Then another, and another, and then more.

"Huh, that's strange? Did someone put something in here?" One of the people in charge could be heard over by the decorations.

"Oh, maybe somebody already lit up one of the lanterns? Kinda early for lights don't ya think?" Another spoke up while walking closer checking out one of the glowing decorations in question.

"K…kyaaah!" Suddenly a scream pierced sharply, causing the festive atmosphere to grow quiet and still. Many eyes turned toward the scene. Before them a Parasol Lady is suddenly surrounded by a group of people holding her in place as a Malamar and a man approach in front of her.

The scene was peculiar, and unsettling as the Parasol Lady's fearful expression gradually grew blank--with her eyes seemingly vacant. An unsettling silence stretched as both the man and Malamar turned.

The man will raise his hand slowly, pointing directly towards them with a smirk on his face.

"Go, my faithful ones. Capture them all."

[I should finally get to that thread, too!!]

Eevee that fly, Eevee that bake... this place was just full of surprises, wasn't it?

"Well... I'm a paying customer today, so..."

Regardless of getting off on the wrong foot, let's see what there is on offer... are there any apple strudels? How about a tart? Or even a pumpkin pie? She could sure go for some cinnamony baked apples...
eadietheeevee: (Default)

Yes. LOL.

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-07 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
"That's good to know," Eadie smiled. "What brought that on?"

There's definitely pumpkin pies. And even strudels. There are also donuts, various breads, muffins, and cupcakes.
dragonbuster: (just the way it is)

[There we go~~]

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-07 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's mouth-watering, alright! Georgia visibly swallows, taking in the sight of all the food on display.

"Psh, I'm not always nicking stuff," Georgia said, with a dismissive eyeroll, then smiled.

She hesitated, a moment, wanting the pie too, but settled for pointing only at the apple strudel.

"That one. So, how much is it?"

Re: [There we go~~]

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-07 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Eadie smirks. "Also good to know."

She names a fair price.
dragonbuster: (that TOTALLY didn't count!)

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-08 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
That's not so bad at all!

Georgia smiles and pays, even considering the pumpkin pie again... alright! She doesn't know how long she'll be away from Unova, she might not get another chance to eat one for a long, long time!

"And the pie, how much for the pie?" she asked, so eagerly and hopefully, she found it a little embarrassing in hindsight.

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-08 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Eadie smiles, pleased, and names another reasonable figure. "I like to keep prices so that everyone's happy," she says.
dragonbuster: (brimming with confidence)

[oh, well!]

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-25 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
That’s great! Georgia breaks into an excited grin, in spite of herself, and pays up.

“I’ll take it! You’ve got pretty good business sense.”

Which isn’t something she ever imagined saying to a Pokemon, but hey, anything can happen in Ultern!

Re: [oh, well!]

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-25 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Eadie smiles. "I think so too. Do you want everything wrapped to go or are you eating here?"
dragonbuster: (just the way it is)

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-25 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh… she never considered eating here as an option, but if she’s not even stealing, why run?

“Wrap up the pie, I guess I’ll have the apple strudel here.”
eadietheeevee: (Default)

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-25 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
"You got it." She begins to carefully wrap the pie in a take-out box with her front paws.
dragonbuster: (say what?)

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-25 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
It’s kind of funny to watch.

“Hey. Do you ever get fur on food? Do they make gloves just for Eevee?”

Oddly curious.
eadietheeevee: (Default)

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-25 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
"I hope not. I always wear aprons when dealing with food." The ruff would be the most likely to shed. "Gloves I have custom-made back home."

“Huh, you’ve got this all worked out,” Georgia said, impressed.

“Did you always think you’d be a baker? And was it tough to convince humans to do business with you?”
eadietheeevee: (Default)

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-26 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Eadie smiles. She sure does.

"I wanted it from an early age," she says. "Luckily, my human was very supportive. It wasn't always easy convincing customers it was a good idea, though."
dragonbuster: (fond smile)

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-11-27 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
“Tell me about it… people can look down on you just for being young, can’t imagine what it’s like for a Pokemon.”
She’ll have her apple strudel now, as she listens and smiles.

“Glad your trainer had your back.”

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-11-27 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
"It was pretty tough sometimes," Eadie says. "But we made a great team."
dragonbuster: (fond smile)

[personal profile] dragonbuster 2023-12-01 11:51 am (UTC)(link)
"Reminds me of my own team! But I'm not so lucky as to have a talking Pokemon... it's a little harder to communicate, this way, but I think we get on pretty well... most of the time."

Georgia's done some less than ideal things as a trainer, but she's still learning and she means well.
eadietheeevee: (Default)

[personal profile] eadietheeevee 2023-12-01 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Eadie nods. "It's much harder. I got so fed-up with it back home that I decided to learn to talk human. It wasn't easy, but I finally did it with my Trainer's help." She smiles. "But even before I learned, we found other ways to communicate."

((OOC: I can't remember if it was ever said IC that Eadie only talks human here, but I like this better, lol.))
