[Kaine's on the network today, looking a little grumpy which isn't new, and there's something he wants to talk about.

Well, a few things actually, but time will tell how much of it he actually says to anyone.

Also behind him on a table are one of those bags from the Pokemon Center and his Natu is sort of hopping around it and occasionally pecking at the bag, trying to get at whatever's inside it.]

So, these bags at the Pokemon Centers. Anyone in Pewter want to trade? Picked one up today, checked out what was in it...and I figure somebody else would probably appreciate what's in there more than I do.

[In the background, Natu has managed to get her head inside the bag, which is slightly impressive given that it's basically a giant head with tiny feet.]

Also those of you who went out there and did stuff...thanks.

[And while Kaine attempts to thank everybody for helping to save the world, Natu emerges from the bag with this somehow placed perfectly on her head. Which is one of the main reasons he wants to trade.]

No, this is new. But her been annoying isn't really.

[He sighs.]

One time she took my pack and made me chase her into the stupid Viridian Forest. Didn't catch up with her until I was more than halfway through the damn thing.

[diehardreaper]

Blimey, she's a cheeky sort, isn't she? Goes to show they come in all types like people do.

[ Have a small laugh. ]

She'd prolly throw a fit if you trade the hat away, seeing as she's so fond of the thing though? Might be a better move to just give it to her.

[theotherother]

Yeah. That's probably what I'm going to do. Not like I have much of a choice now anyway.

[diehardreaper]

Looks that way.

[ A small grin. ]

By the by, what're your names then? You and that bird.

[theotherother]

Kaine. My name's Kaine. The bird...

[...uh, he hasn't actually mentioned this to anyone yet, so this'll be a first.]

Her name's Aracely. Because she reminds me of someone back home. The bird's more of a pain in the ass than she is though. Probably.

[diehardreaper]

She'd prolly take that as a compliment if she ever comes here.

Well, best of British to the both of you then! Fancy a bird like that's thought it best to stay with you. Could be stuck with her, mate.

[theotherother]

Yeah, she probably would.

[But enough about that for now.]

...best of British? British what?

[He doesn't have the slightest idea what that means.]

[diehardreaper]

Ah... S'just a figure of speech, really! Just wishing you fair fortune, is all!

[ Whoops. ]

[theotherother]

Oh.

[Okay then.]

Thanks, but the only luck I seem to attract is bad luck. Pretty sure it's genetic too.

[Thanks, Pete. Stupid Parker luck applying to clones as well.]

[diehardreaper]

Who knows, mate. Things might turn around!

[ He'll be enthusiastic for you. Plenty of that to go around. ]

Keep a stiff upper lip, eh?

[theotherother]

Yeah, maybe.

[If he doesn't sound convinced it's...because he's not convinced.]

Probably going to turn around right off a cliff.

[diehardreaper]

Well, keep that pecker up and who knows, eh?

[ Have a small tip of his hat though. ]

Your luck might change next I see you.
