75. [Video/Action for Olivine City] Backdated to Saturday morning + afternoon

[So something happened that morning. Something ... owly.]

[What, exactly, do you do when you suddenly find yourself in possession of way more fluffy spherical owls than anyone would know what to do with?]

[... TRY AND MAKE SOME MONEY OFF OF THEM, OF COURSE!]

[Anyone in Olivine City, whether they've settled down with a house or are just staying there temporarily, may witness a rather odd sight on this sunny Saturday afternoon.]

[A teenage girl and a scruffy twenty-something man, toting bold-printed signs and... what seems to be a large red wagon full of Hoothoots]

[Behind them, a rambunctious oversized Growlithe, and-- a little further back-- a middle-aged fellow in a brown coat (despite the summer heat), toting a Togepi and a Pichu and keeping his distance, because it's totally uncool for a parent to walk right next to the kids while they're trick-or-treating (although either he or one of the Pokemon would seem to be filming them surreptitiously with the 'Gear on and off, judging by the snippets of Hoothoot Sale Adventures occasionally popping up on the network).]

[... Or in this case, being the best little owl salesmen ever. Even if Henry doesn't particularly look like he wants to be there. Still, the little parade almost looks like it needs some kind of ridiculous owl-selling theme music.]

[Throughout the day, if anyone has a residence in Olivine, they may have THIS show up on their doorstep:]



[... And the girl will glance over at her companion, see that he's not planning on speaking up, and then clear her throat loudly.]

HEY there, good sir and-or madam!

Would you like to buy an owl?




[ooc: Anyone over the network is free to purchase their own adorable roly-poly spherical owl for 500P! It's assumed that any left will be sold to people here and there in Olivine. Except for the derpiest two. Heather has special recipients in mind for those.]

I know, don't worry. Besides, I wouldn't get a pokémon just because it's free, I'm more worried what'll happen to the ones you don't manage to sell.

Alright. How do I get the money to you?

Yeah? ...alright. I never had to, so.

Yeah.

...how'd you wind up with all those owls anyway?

[That was what he thought, but...]

Wouldn't the eggs take a couple days to hatch?

And you guys just left your pokémon in there for days on end without checking on them.

I heard that the first time. You done yelling?

Look, I just.. [see pokémon as pets and you don't leave your pet in a bag for a week without sunlight food and water-]

Whatever. Still not used to this place.
Sorry.

[And he cuts the feed.]
