[The feed switches on to Leon propping his elbows on the counter, idly bouncing a baseball in his hand. He may be dressed for work at the Pokemart, but he...doesn't really look like he's working.
Thankfully for him, his boss is away on an errand so there's no one to yell at him to pick up his slack. It's a quiet day at the Pokemart anyway, so he can afford some time to goof off. Usually this would involve naps, but today he's got a question to pose for the network viewers. ]
So, I've been thinking lately. About dreams. I know what I gotta do to stay here, but...I don't have a dream. Something that keeps me pumped up and excited, you know? Is the Pokemon trainer thing the only dream we can have here? 'Cause I dunno, it still feels kinda off somehow. I can do it if it means I get to stay here, but it's not really my thing.
[A sign punctuates his words.]
It really sucks when you realise that a dream you wanted, might not be such a good dream after all. And I've been thinking for the past two days, and I still can't figure out what it is that I want! It's so annoying!!
[Leon stops bouncing the ball and picks up the Gear, grinning at the audience.]
So, that's where you guys come in! Tell me about your dreams. Something that you wanted to do, either here or back home. Doesn't matter how crazy it is, but just tell me about it because hell, maybe it's a dream worth working towards. Maybe you guys can give me an idea on what kinda dream I can chase after now. There's just one condition: your dream has to be cool. There's no point in having a dream that doesn't fit your standards, right? So my standard is simple: it just has to be a freaking awesome dream!! So gimme your best ones!
Action: Violet City
[Lo and behold, an amazing sight for all to see. The SHSL Slacker is actually working? If by working, you mean he's sloppily arranging stuff on the shelves, or napping over the counters, or even splashing water on the front and calling that a clean job. Did he accidentally splash water over you when he did that? Or did a whole bunch of cartons fall on you because he didn't stack them up properly? Or maybe you're impatiently waiting for this teen punk to get with his job and check out your items. The choices are yours!

Leon wakes up with a yelp, arms and legs flailing. Too bad the chair he's sitting on isn't a big one either, otherwise he might not have toppled over and onto the ground. And he really should've moved that stack of boxes that his boss had asked him to, because now he's gone tumbling straight into them. What was once a neat stack of cardboard boxes becomes something like a slight cardboard avalanche, the sound just loud enough to drown out whatever obscenities Leon might be throwing Hagakure's way right now.
One mess later and Leon shoves a box advertising Charmander Chips off his body, glaring daggers at Hagakure.]
The hell was that for!?
no subject
Haha! I gotcha good, dude!
[He has to stop to take a breath and wipe away tears from the corners of his eyes. Once he's calmed down, he offers a hand to Leon to help him up.]
I'm sorry man, but you were basically a sitting duck, nappin' on the job and all. I just had to take advantage of that.
no subject
[Once Leon's back on his feet, he takes a look at the damage.]
Shit, this whole place is a freaking mess. You better help me clean this up, seeing as it's your fault in the first place!
no subject
Don't worry dude, I'm not gonna leave you hangin'. [He turns to face the mass of boxes. Well that doesn't seem daunting or anything.] Where do we start?
no subject
[This whole task just got a lot harder. Leon's just tempted to leave it and just blame Hagakure when his boss gets back. In fact, he's just about to suggest it when he suddenly recalls what Kirigiri told him: if he wants to stay, he's going to need to get into this Pokemon world crap. And to do that, he's going to need the cash.]
...man, it sucks to be poor. OK, look, I think the old guy wanted me to stack the boxes in the storage from A to Z. So we just gotta start bottom-up from Z and work our way up. It should be easy, no sweat.
no subject
He nods in agreement, already beginning to search for a Z box.]
I feel you, man. About the money problem, I mean. If I had the rest of my divination tools with me it wouldn't be so hard to read fortunes...
[At this point he's relying on visions and despite that being his preferred method of fortune-telling, they've been somewhat hazy since he arrived. It's concerning.]
