68th - Action

[Action - Around Town/The Post Office]

[When Pokey had first gotten into town, he had set about on making a map of the town. And in the two years since then, he hadn't really touched it. Despite how similar looking every house was, there was enough with the opening of the highway and several of the new neighborhoods he supposed it was time to update it. Perhaps for the sake of others even more than his own sake, this time.

So the boy can be found pretty much everywhere around town, a long tube of rolled up paper with him that he unfurls to start tracing down the area. Of course, he also doesn't get the idea of personally property. He'll be all over peoples lawns, including busting into the back lawns to look around and take notes down. Hope you don't mind a fat blue kid copying down notes about your stuff and the area.

Eventually his little adventure takes him by the post office. And for a moment or two he just looks at the Post Office. Examining it. As if trying to prepare himself for something. Because despite telling himself he was just out to make a map today, there are quite a few things he has planned. He takes a short breath in, then out, and enters the post office.

When he comes out, he doesn't have anything new with him. Or look like much has changed, aside from one small detail: his blue skin has changed back to a healthier, more light pink human shade. And for a moment the map is just forgotten. He ambles about town for a little bit, just looking around. And thinking. There's still something else really important he has to do today.]


[Action - Outside 625 Topper]

[The next place Pokey can be found is mulling around outside 625 Topper Street. He spends a good five minutes just staring at the house from across the street, biting his lip, before he walks towards it. And even then he doesn't go and knock on the door immediately. Instead, he decides to just pace back and forth on the lawn for a good ten to fifteen minutes or so. He murmurs to himself, sometimes gesturing a little bit as he talks. It's a quiet, nervous tone, almost like someone rehearsing.

Finally, after a little bit of time has passed he manages to steel himself and go knock on the door.]


[Action - Outside 502 Ricardo Street]

[Well. Everything is calm on Ricardo Street today. That is, until the front door of 502 bursts open and Pokey's still blue-painted Pokeybot bursts out the door, running as fast as it's fat little mechanical legs can take it down the porch of the house. Whatever is happening the robot certainly isn't amused.]

I said no!

[And it isn't too long before Pokey appears following behind the robot, a brush and a can of paint stripper in hand. Whereas the robot is scared and annoyed, Pokey is downright angry.]

And I said your opinion doesn't matter! Get back here stupid!

[The Pokeybots are intended to be obedient. It's part of their programming. But there's only so much one little robot can take, and it picks up a rock and throws it at Pokey, trying to keep his master away.]

No! How about you just paint yourself blue again and we'll call it even! This is dumb and I don't want to be painted again!

First off, I didn't PAINT myself blue, stupid! Secondly, this'll be quicker! It's paint stripper!

....Will that even work?

....Won't know til we try, will we?

[And that's when Pokey will try and rush the robot.

Have you ever seen a boy yell at his blue doppelganger as the doppelganger hides in a tree, mocking him? Because that's what you'll be seeing right now if you pass 502 Ricardo.]

[Tsukasa was making his rounds, as was usual. It had been a standard day at work, and he just wanted to de-stress. And he was going to see if the young Pokey was about. He gives a little smirk at the scene and pulls out his camera.]

Hey Pokey, smile.

[There is a pause.]

...The blue one, too.

Pokey.

[Lucas stares. This is probably rude, but the palette swap is of particular interest to him.]

[ Nurarihyon was lying up in the tree, smoking. When he sees the Pokey moving about the back lawn, he blinks. ]

Whatcha doing kid?

[At some point after Pokey's adventure to the post office, Slugger spots him from the opposite direction and rolls to a a quick halt in front of him. The first thing he notices is his friend's change of pallor and for just a moment, Slugger's face goes pale as he stares in silence.]

[The door opens and... in lieu of your blushing, boy-hating date-to-be, you'll get a rather tall, scruffy-looking fella with some bandage tape rolled around his forearm. You thought you had your head in the clouds, Pokey? This guy's tall enough to breach the ozone layer. He doesn't appear to see you at first, given just how short you are in comparison.]

Hello...?
strike_you_out: (deep breath)

[personal profile] strike_you_out 2012-05-03 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[As soon as he hears the flippant remark, Slugger lets out a breath of relief and his expression lightens.]

...Yeah. [Now that he knows you're not droned, he is. A smirk slowly appears on his face.] You're not a blue freak anymore. What happened?

[Snow looks down. Oh, hey. There you are.]

She should be. Lemme just check. You a friend of hers?
struckbylightning: (Hero)

[personal profile] struckbylightning 2012-05-03 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[He nods, understanding.]

Lemme see if she's in. [He turns to head inside before pausing mid-step.] You can come on inside, too, if you want.

You made a trade and survived? Lucky, lucky. But still an idiot.

'Couple months now. Since, uh... [What'd they call that month again?] February.

Call me Snow.

What'd you trade for? [He eyes Pokey curiously, not seeing any new item in his hands or on his person.]
a_gentle_boy: (Embarrassment)

[personal profile] a_gentle_boy 2012-05-03 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. No. Maybe the opposite. ...Did you get a new haircut?

[This is probably Lucas's attempt at a joke or something.]
strike_you_out: (faceless)

[personal profile] strike_you_out 2012-05-03 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[The first thing doesn't surprise him.


The second thing does, but not as much as it should. In a way, it was a step toward Pokey forgiving himself rather than punishing himself for eternity.]

Good. I wouldn't want to exist forever either.
