((Route)) [029] Video/Action Goldenrod [China's Bday]

[Today is October 10 and it is drizzling in Johto. China can be seen walking around Goldenrod, holding a red umbrella over his head. His Glaceon, Meimei, happily jumps into puddles as she follows her master. China looks into the various shop windows until something in the music shop catches his eye.]

Oh! They actually have one, aru!

[Video]

Hold the camera nice and steady, Meimei.

[China can be seen standing behind an interesting-looking instrument. He tests the strings first, before playing this song. Pay attention at how he's using his fingers. When he's finished he looks up at the gear, smiling gently.]

Today is my birthday, aru. Also, I first arrived in Johto on October ninth last year, a day before my birthday. [He sighs, but keeps smiling.] I have noticed that there are quite a few people who also have their birthdays in October, so consider the song I just played as my gift to you all, aru.

Of course! [He beams.]

How have you been lately anyway, Āfùhàn?

[He nods.]

Not every occasion needs to be celebrated so publicly, aru. Only reason I'm doing something is because my one-year anniversary falls on the same day as my birthday.

Do you? How big is your family, Tulio?

Of course!

[Don't... don't question it. It's really better not to. She wouldn't really have an explanation as to how anyway.]

...

[ Okay, that was unexpected. ] Why'd it shock you?

Aahhh I am very well, Wang Kahn! My hoppip and I are in Violet, and I think that we will stay here until we are much stronger. Also, I wish to learn what it is to raise pokemon, and I think it is the most safe here.

Oh, uh, pretty big. I'm the second oldest of ... six, I think.

..Sounds like a headache.

It was. Some things did not make sense, aru!

[He sighs.]

Well, there's not point in worrying over that anymore. As far as I know, everything back home is relatively peaceful. I should be enjoying my birthday, aru.

I have no idea, aru! It wasn't even mine to begin with. Stocking gave her to me as a parting gift.

In fact, as I recall... for some reason Stocking enjoyed it when that Pokemon shocked her, aru.

[He has absolutely no idea about Stocking's strange fetishes.]

[ Holland doesn't know about them either since he never spoke to her, but he does add two and two together. ]

Gross. Using an animal for that...

Alas, it is so. It does do terrible things to long, beautiful hair. You would understand, although I am surprised that a man your age even has hair on his head still.

Oh, so you're from more... 'modern' times? _{[It feels very weird saying that]}

Yeah, well... let's just say the High Priest was nuts.

Quite an amazing coincidence, isn't it?

It was just me and my mom and dad. I don't live with them anymore though. [she does her best not to frown]

Alright! So you need a party!

[Is he beginning to turn red from anger, or embarrassment? It would be both. He looks very offended.]

I-I-I-I...! That is so rude, aru! And insulting!

I cannot imagine what that would be like, aru. [In his opinion and because he's always had fingers, that's a great skill.]

For beings with fingers, playing an instrument is just as easy. You'll get used to it, I'm sure.

For what?

[He nods.] I am, though I can recall the days before we had all the technology we have now, aru. I sort of miss those times.

[China suppresses a snort.] That is why I am no longer religious.

Do you miss them?

Hm. I don't have any parents, aru. It was just me and my siblings, though I didn't meet them until I was already becoming an adult.

I am not sad about being parentless, though I've always been curious as to how it feels to have them, aru.

It is! Though it brings back a lot of memories too, aru.

[He tries not to sound too gloomy, it was his birthday after all. Then he remembers something.]

You know, Cooper, I actually don't know the date of my real birthday. The same goes for the other Nations, aru.

I think so too. Violet is one of the smaller cities, but it has everything one needs to live through life, aru. Goldenrod, on the other hand, is much bigger. It almost reminds me of Beijing, or Shanghai.

Also, have you heard of the festivities that are supposed to be taking place by the end of October?

Edited 2011-10-25 10:53 (UTC)

A party would be nice. I wonder if my housemates are planning anything while I'm gone, aru.
