[NOW YOU TOO, CAN MESSAGE EMPORIO'S DIRECT POKEGEAR LINE...]
[The hug takes Louie by surprise. Yeah, he'd been watching Emporio's reaction carefully, and observation is a big part of his skillset, but it's a lot harder when he's this nervous. What he does take in as that Emporio is giving him his full attention, he's really listening as he talks, and that feels pretty darn good. Scary, in this moment, but good.

Surprised though he may be, it only takes a second for Louie to return the embrace. He lets out a soft sound that's part sigh of relief, part fond chuckle. He needs to say something, though! He just... He can't get a handle on his words, so the first thing that comes out maybe doesn't make all that much sense.]


Thanks.

[Or maybe it does, in the big picture.]

[Finding he can relax a bit now, Louie smiles as he glances off, a hand on the back of his neck.]

Heh. We kind of both have our brands.

[He sighs fondly, almost a breathed-out little laugh, and looks back to Emporio with a shrug.]

Friendship bracelets are kind of a big deal in my family. Well, with my cousin-- It's a long story, but the short version is that it kept her and her best friend close when things got really bad for a while. And it's what I thought of to, you know, tell you things that are hard to say. I'm glad you like 'em.

[He nods, smiling. Really, it's not like Louie thinks, in the practical sense, that a llama god of pokemon cares about the magic of friendship bracelets to one family of ducks. But hey, he can hope, right? It feels better this way.]

That's the idea. But man, I don't know about breaking away from the ghosts thing. [He gives Emporio a teasing nudge with his elbow, and a wink.] When life hands you something like that built-in, and in the battle sense, it even comes with a type immunity? Like, do you ever think about how many normal-type moves there are?

You whining like that is so cute. [He rests his hand on Emporio's far shoulder.] But yeah, both of those are good points, you're right.

Well, if the ghosts didn't just all follow you, what kind of pokemon do you think you'd mostly train, then?

[Huh. Well, he's making a mental note of that one. But he'll keep that card close to his chest for the time being.]

They are pretty cool. Plus, I've always thought dragons - like, dragon-dragons - have the right idea about gold.

[He nods, laughing as he does.]

Well, yeah! Who wouldn't want that?

Well, dragons have scales. I figure that had to help with the discomfort.

From: [personal profile] pennyloafer
What, no. It can't be uncomfortable if you're a dragon who's always had scales, right? Maybe if you got turned into one, but like, if you're used to it...

Okay, but if it's something like that, I couldn't--

[Oh. Wait. Emporio doesn't know.

There's a lot of things about Louie's life back home that just don't come up in the pokemon world. Not things Louie doesn't bring up, they're just... Not very relevant here. With the lack of access to a money bin, swimming in coins is one such case.

He has to suppress a rather boisterously amused snort before he continues.]


I can't swim through silk, but I can with gold coins.

From: [personal profile] pennyloafer
Yup, I can swim in coins. It's something I figured out by watching my Uncle Scrooge do it, although I think he manages just by sheer willpower... and love of money.

[He gives Emporio a little nudge, winking.]

I mean, it might just be something I can do as a duck, but it's not a "duck thing," you know? I just haven't had the means to try it here, although believe me, I'd be very happy if I did.

No, I'm serious, I've done it. I know it sounds crazy, and I don't know what to tell you about how. It's not something I would know how to explain! But after all the things I've seen back home, it really doesn't seem weird at all.
