DREAM 008 [VIDEO/ACTION IN VIOLET CITY]

[tarotcards]

[Everyone knows that silent protagonists are normally known for being completely perfect, right? They can learn ten different languages, juggle around eight jobs at once, play a bunch of instruments, wield a bunch of different weapons with no prior training, good in every subject, and are just down right perfect.

Well, Souji isn't one of those protagonists.

He only knows two languages which are English and Japanese, though his English is more like Engrish but it's good enough for others to understand! He has had only three jobs that he went to once a week, being Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. The only instrument that he knows how to play is the trumpet and when he means "play", he means he can play Ode to Joy on it and that's just about it. A two-handed sword is the only thing that he knows how to use and Lord help him if someone has given him two wrenches to use-- he still has no idea how Yosuke can run around beating Shadows with those things, much less Yukiko's fans. He's great in languages, but give him chemistry and he'll somehow make Mystery Chemical X. 

Ho ho, Souji's far from perfect.

There's a heck of a lot of things he can't do. Things such as throwing darts, keeping an eye on his Ditto, remembering the first thirty elements on the periodical table, and being somewhat comfortable around Magikarps. Yup, he can't really do any of those well, but that doesn't mean he completely fails at everything! He just has a lot of weaknesses that most people might now know about like that whole throwing darts business.

Oh, and he can't draw to save his life.

Oops.

Well, anyway, hello and welcome to the Buneary Network! Brought to you by Souji's Buneary!

On today's video entry, this little rabbit is bouncing around with its trainer's Pokegear in hand. That might explain why everything is going up and down. Hope no one is prone to motion sickness and if so, the exit is to the left. Please make sure to throw up in the garbage cans. The janitors just hate it when they have to clean up vomit off the carpets.

Besides that, what is this entry about? Let's take a look! It seems as if the camera is moving closer and closer to Souji who is just sitting on a bench outside the Violet City's school. If anyone can really make sense of what's happening on the screen with all this bouncing around, it'll become clear that it seems like Souji is doing something in this notebook of his and he looks pretty concentrated on it! 

The Buneary hops a bit closer and gets onto the bench beside its trainer without him noticing too much, being far too concentrated on whatever he's doing. A few hops later and everyone should be able to get a good look at what's in his little notebook:]

[Yeaaaaaaah...remember when it was mentioned that Souji can't draw? He really can't. At least they're not stick figures though.

So, what got him to start drawing? Well... While teaching at that little school in Violet City, the topic that they were discussing about was about friends. A pretty simple topic for kids and it relates back to Pokemon, so why not? It was easy enough to teach, at least for Souji. That is, until one of the NPC students have suggested that they all bring in a drawing of their friends for their next day in class, meaning everyone in class should bring one.

Including the teacher, Souji...

Oh darn it.

And there you go, there's his story of why's he's drawing that horrible picture alone and not making it look like some kindergarten student drawing it. He still takes no notice of the Buneary since all he can hear is "HOW DOES I DRAWING" in his head.]

Buneary~!

--!!

[Well, until now he finally takes notice.

OH HAI THERE POKEGEAR HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WATCHING THIS-- oh shit, does this mean everyone saw his horrible drawing. Commencing FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF mode. GODDAMMIT BUNEARY WHY ARE ALL POKEMON SET OUT TO RUIN SOUJI'S LIFE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Let's...try to act like his drawing wasn't all that bad...]

...Anyone have any tips on how to draw?


(( OOC: TL;DR SOUJI CAN'T DRAW SOMEONE TEACH HIM HOW TO DRAW  and tags will be done in the morning! If my tags are behind due to lj being a douche as usual, hit me up on AIM at devouragni <3 ))

[ ... while Rise would ordinarily laugh her head off if that drawing had been done by anyone else (adopted sibs not included), this is Souji. And as such, he can do no wrong in her eyes except if he never rescues his cousin BUT GEEZ MAN ]

Aww, Senpai, I think it's cute!

[tarotcards]

[OOPS YOU SHOULDN'T SEE HIS GAME OVERS FROM NOVEMBER THEN-- he wanted to max out his social links. Don't be judgin']

Hope that's what the kids at the school will think.

[wistfulfocus.livejournal.com]

Aw, did one of those children draw that? It's adorable!

[video]

[tarotcards]

[ACK-- Thanks Serah...That totally hit him. Talk about throwing salt into a wound.]

....I drew it actually...

[coolest-cat.livejournal.com]

Not bad for a beginner.

Unless you're submitting to the Louvre, what's the issue?

[video?]

[tarotcards]

The topic that I was teaching at school was about friends and one of the assignments was to draw our friends.

[You can probably guess the rest. Those darn kids, forcing their teacher like this.]

[video]

[tophat]

How cute.

[video]

[tarotcards]

Thanks. [He guesses....] Just hope the kids will say the same.

[video]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

[whoa, he recognizes one of those drawings! hard not to pick big sis' pigtails out in a crowd.]

Hey, you know Rise?

[video]

[tarotcards]

[He nods.]

Yeah, she's a close friend. I guess you know her too?

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

Um... I think it's pretty!

video.

[tarotcards]

[Well, that makes him smile a little.]

Thanks. Much of an artist as you saw.

[reveiller]

[Can't stop. Smiling.]

Well, it's the thought that counts. Mostly.

[video?]

[tarotcards]

..."Mostly"?

[saving-violins.livejournal.com]

Aaah! Are you trying to make your own manga?

[Video]

[tarotcards]

[...Manga?]

No, just the kids at the school...

[dragonspeak]

[It's okay. Merlin can't draw either--at least, he's never tried]

Is that a portrait of your friends?

[Video]

[tarotcards]

[Let's get Merlin to draw and see how much fails-- I mean, is good at drawing.]

Yeah. Well....at least the best I can make of them.

[ video ]

[usedswitcheroo.livejournal.com]

I can offer some help if you're in Goldenrod City.

[ video ]

[tarotcards]

That would have been great, but I'm in Violet City. Thanks for the offer though.

Got any general tips though?

[usedgrowl.livejournal.com]

Uh... Well, that's not... that bad. I've seen worse.

[action]

[tarotcards]

[WHOA WHERE DID YOU COME FROM YOU DANG NINJAS]

I guess...One of the people over the network thought one of the kids at the school drew it... [HIS PRIDE IT'S GONE]

[10yen_idol]

[Yayoi's about to say something encouraging, but--]

Wait- is that Teddie? And....

[There's a long pause before she asks VERY tentatively because s-she's really not sure. ARE THOSE PIGTAILS OR MUTANT PASTRIES] ... um, Rise?

[Video]

[tarotcards]

[A MIX BETWEEN PIGTAILS AND MUTANT PASTRIES-- actually, I think they're pink leeches.]

Yeah...Kinda hard to tell, huh?

[trollsikebukuro.livejournal.com]

A pretty talented drawing for a child, isn't it?

video;

[tarotcards]

[...Izaya, why are you being such a troll when he's down.]

Yeah, if it was drawn by a child...

[ve-gone.livejournal.com]

[ Don't worry, man. Todd knows what is going on here. You must have gotten that from one of those kids in that school right? Right. He's a rock star so he's been given his fair share of crap he didn't want by people he didn't want it from. ]

You know that, like, after people give you that junk you can just toss it away right? I mean crap from fans. Just throw it away and they'll never find out.

[Video]

[tarotcards]

[wh-- TODD HOW COULD YOU WHAT IF RAMONA SENT YOU FAN MAIL]

...Someone didn't give it to me. I drew it...
