Are any of you familiar with the legend of the Dragon's Gate? They say that there exists a huge waterfall running off a great mountain. Fish swim upstream against the harsh current, but most tire out and are swept away. But those who have the courage to persist and make it to the top of the waterfall are transformed into a beautiful, powerful dragon.

It's a good lesson, isn't it?

That's right! Even though this school has countless obstacles and hurdles and dangers looming quite literally right over our heads, if we give up, we too will be pushed back and will make no progress! We must press on through the unforgiving current, and when we make it, we will come out stronger than ever! All right! Let's do our best to reach the top!!

[What brought this up? Is someone trying to keep himself from going nuts at the idea of one last year here... probably.]

On another note... There are many Pokemon and trainers here, so if anybody has any advice on raising a Magikarp, I'm all ears!

[Ah. Ah. That's it.

ACTION TIMES: Kiyotaka can be found bonding with an ugly fish he lets swim in a kiddie pool out in the stadium some days. Most of the time he can be found studying. Livin' on the edge. Although whatever he's doing, he seems to be favouring his left arm a little.]

[travelingbelle]

I mean knowing what you were getting into. I can take a class on zoology but that doesn't mean I'm ready to be a zoo keeper!

Did you take it to a Pokecenter while you were there?

[forgetbeam]

Of course we did!

[Eventually.]

But... you're right...! Come to think of it, I don't think any of us were fully qualified for this!

[travelingbelle]

[UGH POKEFRANCE POKECENTERS they probably thought he'd put the pokemon... back...]

Us? Who else?

[forgetbeam]

[HE CAN'T RAT OUT HIS FRIENDS

wait yes he can because they all broke the law like dirty criminals]

Besides myself, there was Hajime Tanaka, Eikichi Mishina, and Hidehiko Uesugi.

[SURE IS JAPANESE IN HERE.]

[travelingbelle]

[SO JAPANESE. That was way more than she was expecting.]

... Did you all pick up a Pokemon?

[forgetbeam]

Yes, that's right! They were all found together!

[travelingbelle]

They weren't having a pokeparty were they...

[NO probably not, if they were hurt.]

Nevermind. Ok. You might want to call your friends and get ready to go, you've got ten minutes before I bust through your door.

[forgetbeam]

Bust through...? Wait, just what are you planning? At least knock first!!

[That's the important thing here. No broken hinges.]

[travelingbelle]

We're going downtown and the next blue shell express is in twenty minutes.

[forgetbeam]

You can't just decide something like that!!

[BUT OKAY HE'S GONNA GRAB HIS PHONE AND. Warn the others to lock their doors. Never underestimate the power of sheer crazy in this school.]

[travelingbelle]

Do you really want to argue with me about spontaneous decisions right now?

[Because you really don't want to do that. She taps her wrist lightly.]

9 minutes. I'm on my way.

[THE FEED TURNED OFF.]

[forgetbeam]

[wow don't use that against him

EVEN THOUGH HE DESERVES IT

oh god oh man too bad he texts like a grandpa. HRRRNGGHHHHH He is so boned.]

ACTION TIME

[travelingbelle]

[Ooops. Too bad THERE IS A KNOCK AT THE DOOR.]

Scoot your butt!

[forgetbeam]

What-- Already?! I've only finished one text!

[travelingbelle]

[She checks the time and-- wow, ok. She thought she was bad at texting.]

Why didn't you just call them... Well whatever, we'll deal with the rest of them later. Grab your partner and let's go.

[forgetbeam]

[NO. CALLING WOULD HAVE BEEN. A GOOD IDEA...

Too late for regrets now. He grabs the Pokeball off his desk and opens the door, though he frowns a little. If they're headed downtown...]

This is about the trainer's exam, isn't it?

[Maybe part of his slow texting had to do with also talking to Sonny in the meantime W H O O P S]

[travelingbelle]

[The pokeball in his hand was noted. Blue blinked, then grinned a little.]

Pretty much. We're gonna keep you outta Pokejail.

[forgetbeam]

[Pokejail

POKEJAIL

POKEJAIL]

The-- the right thing to do would be to turn myself in now, wouldn't it?! If I've already broken the law, I can't just get a license now and pretend that makes it all alright!!

[You teased the wrong guy, Blue.]

1/2

[travelingbelle]

... Uh. Oh.

[travelingbelle]

No, uh, that was a joke. I was teasing you. It's ok! C'mon, we just have to get you officially registered and all that.

[She's going to lightly nudge him along. Let's go before your face leaks more.]

[forgetbeam]

[Good work Blue, diffusing that tearbomb half a second before things got REALLY ugly and leaky.]

What--?! Why would you even joke about something like that!? That's a serious issue!!

[HE TAKES THE LAW SUPER SERIOUSLY. But okay. He'll just take a seriously deep breath and calm his tits instead.]

Alright, let's go. We need to catch that train!

[travelingbelle]

Sorry, my boyfriend- [shit that felt weird to say] -is a horrible influence.

[SCOOTING ALONG TO THE TRAINBUS.]

I sort of figured you'd think "pokejail" sounds ridiculous... But don't worry, the fact that you have him in a pokeball means you are already more or less officially his trainer now.

[forgetbeam]

[Combination train/bus/subway/actual giant blue shell.]

How does it sound any more ridiculous than PokeMart or pokeball?

[travelingbelle]

Haha, I guess you're right! Those are basically brand names tho, so it'd be like a brand named jail.

[forgetbeam]

Actually, that... sounds like it would fit right in, here.

--Anyway, that's not important!! I need you to help me do an emergency review on everything I need to know to get this license! Go on, quiz me!!
