[video .005] / action for Goldenrod

[thinkimsuperman]

[Douglas is just sort of sitting around at the bar in the inn, and he's got the 'gear propped up on his bag, which is still filled mostly just with the basics and the things Heather sent him. He's pretty much moved permanently into a room in the inn at this point. Sheldon and Kal-El are fighting over some berries and come pretty near to knocking the 'gear over several times, so it's a while before Douglas can actually pay any attention to the feed he's sending out]

It's been a while since I've done this, hasn't it? Feels like it's been a while, anyway. This time I've actually got a point, though. I've been doin' some odd detective work for people around town lately, and it's got me thinkin'. I know there might not be much demand for this sort of thing, but if anybody needs to hire a private detective, you can contact me anytime. Figured it might do some good to advertise.

[then Kal-El knocks the 'gear over and Douglas sends him a scowl and holds it in his hands rather than risking it getting knocked over again]

I don't charge much. Really just got my room and food expenses to cover, so I'll do whatever you need for pretty cheap. Just send me some details if you have something you want me to work on.Got about twenty years of experience, and there's not a lot I can't handle, I like to think.

[Douglas looks up and catches sight of him, giving him a smile]

Hey. It's been a while, hasn't it? [he gives a small nod] Bein' a detective was what I did back home. I figure some people might be able to use my services here, too.

[Sheldon pushes a couple over to her. He doesn't mind sharing. He just doesn't get along with Kal-El]

There's always people who'll want to find out about things and can't do it themselves.

[He'll just be sitting down on a barstool next to you, Douglas. Samus is all too happy to take the berries Sheldon gave her; he's just made a new Lucario friend.]

Heh, so you probably won't be out of a job anytime soon in this place.

[thinkimsuperman]

I guess that's true. Seems like it'd be the same anywhere.

[he chuckles a bit]

I sure hope not. There's nothing more frustrating than bein' out of work, you know?

[Sheldon seems pretty happy at the prospect of making some new friends; he doesn't really get along with any of Douglas' other Pokemon. Here, have another berry Samus]

[He nods in agreement, leaning his forearms on the bar and looking amused.] Yeah, I know all about that.

What kind of investigations did you do?

[Because he's kind of considering whether it would be a good idea to hire Douglas himself, with all the people showing up from his world and several of them not going to tell Envy much of anything. ...And the question doubles as a distraction from 'so Envy what did you used to do'.]

[Samus is happy to accept another berry! Sheldon is totally okay in her books now, and she tells him so in Pokespeak.]

Mostly investigations into infidelity, things like that. A few kidnappings... and sometimes I'd look into people, for various reasons. Nothin' too exciting.

[Sheldon is a little shy and he just wibbles a little before he returns the sentiment]
