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.]

[amusement]

Oi. Careful, Heather. I hear those owls are part of the owlpocalypse.

You're selling them now?

...did you ever figure out where they came from?

[Atsuro and his Nidorina pause when they approached them.]

Me?

So that's what you're doing with all of them.

[Envy is just so amused by this entire situation.]

... [ rather faintly, because as cute as those ridiculously roly-poly owl babies are, Rise is currently reminiscing about two red eyes sloooowly rising up from the dark depths of a bottomless bag. ]

Claudy's...?

... You are selling them.

[He sounds so... unimpressed at this solution.]

Aww, they're kind of cute.

How... You know, I can't even tell whether this is supposed to be 'cute' or amusing.

It was about time I saw your face, Heather...

Oh, how adorable~!

So that was your bag of owls, huh? [[so amused]]

...are you... are you selling HootHoots?!

Aw, they're so cute! [You would say that, Aoko.]

Do they ever blink? I mean, seriously, I can sorta see why that guy's freaked out by them.

[Totally taking video of this. Harry slips the communicator back into his pocket while the little owl sellers return. Lisa jumps up and down waving while Hazel is looking around more.]

How are things going so far?

...I'll take one, if you're still looking to give some away. And if you've got a way to get it to Goldenrod.

Sellin' owls huh? How's that working out for you? Aren't they, like, fairly common?

[[And lo, where there are birds, especially those in need of something, there is this birdbrain. With the dead eyed, emotionless look of a doll. With a Swablu napping on his shoulder.]]

You need homes for them...?

It seems like quite a hootenanny over there.

[Expectant pause.]

Ah, those are Hoothoots, right? They're pretty cute. [and he's currently trying to resist the urge to buy one.]

Are they coool?
