[goddammit lancer are you drinking again--of course you are]

Connla's runnin' around Johto again--you happen to see a kid with a thick Scottish accept, point him towards the Celadon breeding center.

Course, I'm in Vermillion waitin' to see Saber finish this thing out, but I should probably be back before he gets there.

[He paused to take another drink of god only knew what.]

....oh yeah, and I really hate Gyarados. I mentioned that lately?

Faither, are ye drinkin'? Dae ye want tae end up on top o' the rampairts wit' yer skivvies on yer heid, yellin' aboot bein' th' laird o' th' dance agin?

[GUESS WHO TOLD HIM ABOUT THAT STORY]

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

[NO WHY]

...There's no proof that actually happened.

[video]

[three_geasa]

Are ye callin' Aunt Scathach a liar, faither?

[TREAD. CAREFULLY. CU CHULAINN.]

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

[...aw fuck]

...I'm just sayin' you can't prove that and neither could she.

[video]

[three_geasa]

I dinnae ken Aunt Scathach woud tell a fausehood tae me. Whit means tha' th' coontryside back hame hae gotten a guid view o' yer backside, and this ane dinnae need likeweys.

[I know it's hard for you, but keep it in your pants, Lancer.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

I'll pass on the message if I see him! ...Though I'm also in Vermillion, and I've no idea what a Scottish accent sounds like.

[Chances of Cecil passing on that message: -fifty bajillions.]

What have those poor Gyarados ever done to you?

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

Ah, well. No big deal, he'll find his way there. Blond teenager, damn near indecipherable if you ain't heard it before.

...I don't like sea serpents. Plus one knocked me outta the damn tournament.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That sounds distinctive enough, at least. Where is he at the moment?

You had no electric attacks to counter it?

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

He just got here a while ago. Cherrygrove, maybe Violet at the furthest.

I had a Houndoom, Venomoth, and Poliwhirl. Ain't much room for electricity there.

[video]

[paladinlost]

He walks the whole way? That's all too rare, these days.

...Perhaps a Move Tutor could teach your Poliwhirl ThunderPunch. A surprising number of species can learn it.

[autocratic]

They are beautiful creatures, those Gyarados! Their power is something to aspire towards!

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

They're sea serpents.

[video]

[autocratic]

Is that not an important component of your tale? Surely you do not cower in the face of their maw.

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

Y'know what else is an important part of the story? Gettin' stabbed with sharp objects. I don't have to like it!

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled]

He's back? Wow...how long has it been?

And why the Gyarados remark?

[Video]

[riastrad_ridire]

One year and seventy-one days. [Beat.] ...Not that I was keeping track.

As for the goddamn sea serpent, I'm kinda sick of gettin' my ass kicked by them.

[wontdieifkilled]

...Right.

[Keep trying to save face, Lancer. Shirou won't buy it.]

Then why not train an Electric-type? You realize those do four times the normal damage against them, right?

[riastrad_ridire]

[Shrug.]

I like my team how it is. If I run into an Electric-type, great, but I ain't gonna run all over the place after one.

[ex_cashcow493]

Why would you have me keep you from your child, Lancer? Go on, you should reunite with him as soon as you can.

[ She honestly doesn't get why he's still here. ]

video;

[riastrad_ridire]

Hey, he's a tough kid. He can get by on his own until the tournament's over.

[Saber, pls.]

video;

[ex_cashcow493]

Lancer, you were distraught when he left this place before. Leave now before I force you to by my own hands.

[ Seriously bro. ]

video;

[riastrad_ridire]

I'm staying until the tournament's over.

[video]

[incorruptibility]

...What exactly is a Gyarados? And, well, I would attempt to help with the first, but, I've never heard such an accent. Would you explain, please?

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

It's this giant sea serpent with a mouth that could probably swallow a damned house.

...And believe me. You'll know it if you talk to someone that's damn near indecipherable.

[video]

[incorruptibility]

I think I've met a few people like that here, actually...

Is it some sort of Leviathan?
