Summer's gone, but you would never be able to tell from this weather. They call this an 'indian summer', right?

[The video opens to a shot of Till, Kiki's Sawsbuck, showing off his autumn foliage, not quite as thick as he would like, given the heat. He shakes his massive antlers and prances a few times, making Kiki giggle, even as she wipes sweat from her brow.]

Isn't Till handsome with his fall antlers? I also got him a saddle--

[Till obligingly turns a bit, showing off a neat little saddle and harness getup, which looks sturdy, if not elegant.]

I had some trouble finding a saddle that was all right on his back, since he's different from a Ponyta. So I improvised a little.

[A beat.]

I've been thinking about traveling a lot, lately. Maybe even going around all of Kanto. Anyone have any tips for long distances?

What's the vacation policy? Say I wanted to take a few weeks off.

Have you trained them to attack other humans?

_{[That is a very majestic Sawsbuck and Coop will admire him and show that with a low whistle and a smile.]}

He looks very handsome indeed. You must care for him a great deal.

_{[And since Coop has his own Deerling he's now kind of secretly 'eeee' at how she's also going to be even prettier one day. Changing with the seasons come on that's just amazing.]}

It's been a while, Kiki, how have you been?

I'll bring canned foods for myself, too.

I won't be riding all the time, that wouldn't be very fair to Till. The weather's still nice, so I can walk. I kind of prefer it that way.

[It's a Ghibli thing, Rin.]

Yeah, people keep saying to bring lots of water and lots of food. I'll ration carefully! Anything else?

[Till shakes his antlers again, just to make sure Mr Cooper can see all the nuances of greenish-yellow-brown-red.]

I've been good! Saving up my pennies, like my dad always says. Now that I've got a bit saved up, I can travel around and see more things!

I just want to see Kanto! Explore, you know? I've managed to save up some, so I thought I'd take off and broaden my horizons. If that's all right with you, of course.

Oh, good. I know I can count on you.

[Ssssh, you're pretty, Carmen!]

And yes, please! Where are you, right now?

[Look Alex I didn't even make a WHERE IN THE WORLD-- joke! 8D]

[broomwithaview]

[Eeep. Meekly:] No.

Of course it is.
I encourage you to travel as far as possible.
Will you keep me up to date with your progress?
And do call if you end up in any trouble.

[Luckily for Alex's terrible sense of humor, even she doesn't remember where the fuck Carmen was at this point in time, so —]

We've been on the move recently. Did you hear the news that some of Cooper's friends from home arrived? I think the plan is to wait for them to catch up.

[thetruehistorian]

Well, they won't be much protection then, will they?

[video]

[pinnedbangs]

Just be careful. You might be better off traveling with someone than to go by yourself.

Huh, so you don't mind how slow it is?

[That's pretty rare around Johto and Kanto, really. So many prefer the luxury of riding.]
