[Douglas is sitting on the front steps of the Goldenrod Gym. Sheldon is beside him, currently pigging out on berries from the basket he's been collecting them in]

So I uh... apparently lost my first battle. [there's a chuckle]

Anybody got any tips so I could do better next time? [he shrugs] Or maybe I'm just not cut out for this kinda thing? I dunno.

And Heather, I'm a city now. So you can stop worryin' so much. I'll be fine. [he smiles]

((OOC: as usual, you can add and create your own character tags or add something derpy for kicks))

I didn't uh... plan on it. It was an accident.

Well, I went in there thinkin' it was an inn. Guess I didn't read the sign.

Your first ba-- ... dude, you tried to fight the Gym Leader THERE?

[After never battling before?!]

You gotta take it slower, man!

[... Whoa. WHOA. HEATHER is trying to tell DOUGLAS to take things slower? STRAP ON THOSE ICE SKATES AND HOP IN THE HANDBASKET!]

I didn't wanna battle. Didn't even know it was a gym. Just sorta wandered in and the battle started without any warnin' or anything.

I gotta say it was sure a surprise.

[Bringing a hand up to her forehead, Heather rolls her eyes.]

Sheesh... do I have to get you some glasses for Christmas or what?

Anyway... be more careful from now on, okay?

... And when you ARE strong enough, bring some earplugs if you try to fight that Gym Leader again. Just trust me on that one.

Hey, if there's one part of me that's not failin' yet, it's my eyes.

Sure, I'll be careful. You don't have to worry about me, okay?

[and then he chuckles]

Whadaya mean by that?

Was it because of levels, or type matchups? Battling's a lot more than just charging in and hoping for the best.

I didn't plan to battle. I just sorta wandered in and it started somehow. Think I ended up fighting somebody else's battle they were about to start or somethin'.

Yeah...usually if you go into a gym or something, that's the expectation. Most trainers think if you make eye contact, it's on.

Well. Guess I'm gonna have to watch my back from now on, huh?

Looks like you took on more than you could chew, Detective. My tip: don't go for the gyms first.

[Is he a little amused? Yep, but kindly so.]

[Douglas loves you, lawlbuddy]

I didn't uh... realize it was a gym. I thought it was an inn, and I wandered in hopin' to rent a room or somethin'. And then the battle started.

Ouch.

[That's a sympathethic wince right there. Sounds like you probably were had.]

I hope you didn't get too beaten up. If memory serves the Inn should be down the street to your left.

Yeah, guess I should really be more observant. Seems like a good idea around here.

[he shakes his head]

Naw, I'm okay. It wasn't much of a battle. Sheldon just kinda retreated into his shell and stayed there.

Thanks. I'll have to go find the right building this time.

[he laughs self-deprecatingly]

I wasn't plannin' on a fight. I thought I was in an inn and then... a battle just sorta started up.

[way to be observant, Doug]

[he sighs]

I was tired. Guess I wasn't really payin' attention.

[he shrugs slightly]

Guess that's what I get for not readin' signs.

I didn't mean to battle. I just sorta wandered in thinkin' it was an inn and it... started.

So... they forced you to battle? [ So harsh... ]

I dunno if I'd say 'forced'. More like it just kinda happened.
