003 | Too much of a good thing

[ Today, you are greeted with a whump and a crash... and the sound of a panicked Duskull as it floats over to check on its trainer who had apparently fallen out of bed along with his Gear. ]

...Bimey... what time is it...?

[ There's a pause though as Ronald reaches for his glasses and goes to check the time, his grogginess suddenly disappearing the minute he realizes what time -- and day -- it is. ]

Hang on... I've been asleep for HOW LONG?! That's... not right. At least I'm awake in time for Christmas...

[ And have a small grin before he ends. ]

Bit of advice for you lot: Killua's made some fantastic absinthe lollies for this month's menu... but don't have ten in one go or you might end up like me.

[ Hey Ronnie, guess who showed up while you were passed out :D Here, enjoy a scolding as your greeting. ]

Honestly, I shouldn't be surprised. Either by the fact that you're here as well, or that you've managed to fall into a drunken stupor.

[ !! ]

M... Mister Spears?!

[ He's just gonna stare at the Gear for a bit there in stunned silence because wtf where did you come from... and there's a moment again before he looks over his shoulder at the duskull that's come in to check on the chaos. ]

Grim, better rustle me a pot. Wager m'still seeing things.

[ Frowns more the more Ronald stares. ]

I am here, Knox. You can stop your gawking.

Now, where are you? There are somethings I wish you to explain to me.

[ Said duskull is still gonna float off and make his partner a pot of tea just to help stave off the hangover. It also conveniently keeps him out of this because if that's who he thinks he is, he'd rather not have any of the ensuing scolding within earshot.

Ron meanwhile has pulled himself up off the floor and is leaning against the bed. ]

You just prolly came in then if this isn't some sort of dream.

[ Give him a second to ruffle his own hair. ]

I'm in a city called Goldenrod. Joined up with the lot you were working with in the circus for convenience's sake. Joker'll be interested in seeing you around, I wager!

[ The feed will flicker out for a minute or so while William checks the map he's noticed on his Gear. He returns on screen with a huff. ]

It seems it will take me some time to get to you.

[ His aggravation at not being able to quickly move from place to place while here is overly apparent. ]

How many others that we know are here, as well.

[ You know what he's hoping NOT to hear. ]

Could always fix yourself up with a Ponyta from the Breeding Center. S'how I got here in less than the time it'd take on foot... or... I could send you mine. He's an obedient thing and m'sure he'll listen to you. Just have to get to the next town to start.

[ And a pause to think about the second question. ]

S'just Joker'n Beast. No one else. Haven't seen hide nor hair of Mister Sutcliffe though someone said he'd been 'round ages back. Haven't had word of the Phantomhive lad or Bassy either.

A Ponyta? A horse type, I assume by its name? Perhaps that could work.

[ He's about to comment on Grell when it suddenly occurs to him... ]

Wait. The ones from the Noah's Ark Circus? We reaped their souls, their files are closed. How are they here?

[ This does not please him. nonono Luckily, this news is keeping him from focusing on the fact that Ron called the demon 'Bassy.' ugh... ]

Lancelot'll get you here as quick as you please. There's no ponyta quicker'n he is, I wager!

[ And have an almost apologetic look as he rubs the back of his neck. ]

Yeeeeeah, about that... there's just two of them here. That Snake bloke's around but I hardly see him. Beast... she doesn't seem to know what happened but Joker... and this is the odd bit: he knows he died. M'sure we reaped them though.

Then send him out. I will be waiting.

I don't remember informing him of his fate before reaping him.

[ He huffs loudly, wishing he could whip his binder out and check some things. ]

This is going to cause more than a small headache for me, should we make it back to London. I can't even begin to imagine how the department is fairing with both of us gone.

...Mister Sutcliffe's the only one who isn't here.

[ He'll just... let that sink in a bit. ]

Anyroad! M'sure if and when they send us home, chances are they could take us back the minute they took us maybe?

[ Okay William, just breathe steadily. ]

Honestly. That better be the case.

And Sutcliffe better stay out of my office while we are here.

Who knows? Maybe we'll be lucky'n he wouldn't even know we were gone?

[ Have a sheepish little grin for that. ]

Anyroad... you prolly should get your arse here before Christmas comes round. It's just around the corner and the last thing I'd want is for you to spend it on the road.

If I had any sort of luck, I wouldn't have to deal with that thing to begin with.

[ Your choice of wording isn't helping that frown disappear, Ronnie. ]

Fine. I'll start out on my own. Hopefully this horse Pokémon can find me along the route.

Shouldn't be so hard on him, sir. He does fancy you... but that bit's rather blatant though, innit?

[ There's an amused little chuckle he's trying to suppress lest he be thrown a pay-cut threat once they get home. ]

I'll send him to you directly! Just get to the next town. There's a place called a Pokemon center with this little doodad called a PC. M'sure a bright one like yourself can figure out the rest from there.

Yes, I am well aware of his affections.

[ He still doesn't get why, but... how do work emotions? ]

A PC? Alright, I will make a note of that, whatever it might be.

Affections, perversions, tomato, to-mah-to, eh?

[ Don't mind the grin. ]

Just ask the lass at the counter. She's loads of help. Once you get to town, drop me a line! I'll be sure to meet you at the gate.

[ Don't mind the GLARE in response. ]

I will do so. We will speak in a few dates time, then. Good day, Knox.
