justanexpression[Obviously, someone has been practicing. When the feed kicks on, it's a properly framed picture of one Jack Frost. He's set up camp in the woods fringing Cherrygrove City with a good view of the beach and a frolicking Seel in the background behind him. He also looks more cheerful and less confused than last time.
Oh, and the egg in his lap. That's new, too.]
So, everyone was awesome about answering my questions last time, now I've got more of them.
Cherrygrove is nice. Been here a couple days, now. [He gestures over his shoulder.] You can tell Phil likes it. Kind of got lost on the way here, yeah, yeah, I know it's a straight line, okay, and Phil is about as slow as slow can be, but now that I'm here, I've got this guy. [He pokes at the egg. It's blue and white and people in the know might recognize it as a Pachirisu egg. Jack is not in the know.] Or girl. How do you tell?
For that matter, what do I do with it? Am I supposed to keep it warm? Someone mentioned a deal for new people just showing up, and that's totally me, so I, uh... just kind of hit buttons until I saw something that sounded good, but now I'm thinking that wasn't the best idea?
[He takes a second to glance over his shoulder, probably to make sure his Seel hadn't been eaten by a shark in the last few minutes or anything. If nothing else, this place seems to be teaching him a really strange sense of responsibility. If only Bunny could see him now.
He resettles, placing the gear on the ground in front of him so it can pick up a full body shot, including the sneakers he wasn't wearing before.]
Okay, second question, and... I know how crazy this sounds, but at least some of you weren't human before getting here, right? Pretty sure I've met one already. [Again, unless Thor's parents had some ridiculous delusions of grandeur.] So the question is- how do you stand it? Not the being here, that's turning out pretty cool, but the rest of it. All the getting hungry, and tired, and walking everywhere, not to mention buying stuff. Am I gonna have to get a- [shudder] -job?

Date: 2013-04-22 05:00 pm (UTC)They so are.The duelist frowns, clearly not impressed by that "achievement".]
Tch. Like there's any pride to take in making people's lives hard.
[video]
Date: 2013-04-22 08:04 pm (UTC)Anyway, if you do it right, everyone gets a couple days off, everything looks pretty and white for a while, and then life goes on.

Date: 2013-04-22 11:35 pm (UTC)How the hell do you think I am, some kinda petty pickpocket? You'd never have seen me take a single thing from anyone other than the Security!
[Which doesn't automatically make it right and he's well-aware of it, but hey, let it be known that Crow Hogan does have some standards.]
"Life goes on," my ass. Did you even think that through? If people don't get to work, they don't get paid; if they don't get paid, they've got less money to afford the bills, right? Now, what happens if you add cold and snow to that? That's right, dramatic increase of energy consumption to keep the house warm!
[Finally, he makes a pause in his monologue by slamming his palm on the nearby table.]
In other words, you could easily ruin a household's already tight budget with that!
[AND THAT IS THE MOST HORRIBLE THING EVER
wow talk about projecting much][video]
Date: 2013-04-23 01:35 am (UTC)[Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh] Okay, okay, fine, so maybe I never thought of it like that. But seriously, it's not like winter didn't exist before I came along. Heck, there's plenty of storms that I don't even have anything to do with.
And budgets? Really? You sure you're cool?
[Jack isn't really the slamming his hands on stuff sort, but he does cross his arms pointedly.] Anyway, that Security or whatever you're stealing from. They probably get paid by someone, and I bet they got in trouble for letting you take stuff. What about them?
[It's probably time to concede that you're both equally uncool and go home, boys.]
[video]
Date: 2013-04-25 12:40 am (UTC)No need for that, at least not where I live.
[Crow folds his arms as well, shaking his head.]
Maybe so, but that doesn't mean you should be making it worse. [And yes, he did mean for it to sound like a lecture.]
Being cool has never relieved anyone from paying the bills, y'know.
[UNFORTUNATELY.
Talking about Security (or more precisely, getting them into trouble) clearly brightens his mood, though, and he lets out a somewhat amused snort.]
Sorry, but I don't think I can bring myself to feel bad for the cops.
[Talk about double standards.]
[video]
Date: 2013-04-25 12:54 pm (UTC)Not that it stops him from rolling his eyes over Crow's lecture and sudden change of mood.]
Whatever. You're so not cool.

Date: 2013-04-25 05:08 pm (UTC)Neither are you, Snowball.
