> Dave: Cut a deal.

[strideways]

[ For once, the video clicks on, instead of the poor network being flooded with obnoxious red text. Dave is lounging in a chair, behind a café table somewhere in Goldenrod, with a bubble tea in one hand. ]

Ladies. Strider needs a favour.

[ Why yes, he's talking to all of you. Or any of you, really. ]

I'm willing to offer a few hours of my time to the first pretty girl to lend me her Fly HM. Dinner, on me, anywhere in Goldenrod.

[ A beat. ]

Dinner on the table, actually. But I'll pay for it.

[ He flashes the briefest of grins, one eyebrow cocking up above his shades — ]

Clock's ticking.

[— and turns the feed off. ]

[private to rose]

[ Aww. Dave might actually be kind of smiling a little bit maybe. ]

Well, hey, I stick to my word. You bring me that HM, I'll buy you ice cream.

[ This is Dave, assuming that this tiny girlchild is completely self-sufficient, and that there's no one around to think it's weird or creepy of him to buy her ice cream. ]

[OH MY SHIT ICE CREAM oAo]

R-Really?

[but wait, no, that's rude nanako. what did Dad teach you again.]

I mean... it's okay, it won't be mine so you should buy them ice cream instead! At least, if you don't already get it... by the time I borrow it...

Going on an adventure, kiddo? [Have your dearest not-an-owner-of-a-white-van Other Father giving you a big, loving smile. He loves you Dave. From the bottom of his heart. As a son, of course.]

No reason not to thank the messenger. But if you're borrowing it from a pretty girl, too, I might have to take you both out. Heavy is the crown.

[ Well, hello. ]

The HM deal's a limited offer, but who knows, maybe I'll have some free time when I get back.

Oh, well, you don't have to worry about that. He's all the way in Olivine City!

[ex_cashcow493]

Unfortunately, I do not have such an ability. I know others who may in my place if you require it still.

[strideways]

[ Oh. Yeah, good thing he's in Olivine. ]

More ice cream for us, right?

[strideways]

I think some other chick's got it covered.

[ Some eight-year-old chick. ]

We'll see if we can't work in an exception clause for you when I've got the time to spare.
