[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!

When I swim Freestyle, the water and I understand each other. It's quiet, there's no one there to talk to or expect things. I'm free from all bonds, at peace with myself and the water.
I want to be that way all the time, neither accepting nor rejecting things that pull at me and having no obligations. That's my dream.
[he looks completely serious about this and like has has no idea what a weirdo he sounds like]

Join the club.
[As strange it may sound, Leon does get the idea. A life free of rules and regulations, and being able to do whatever the hell he wanted...that was the life he wanted to have.]
You think that kinda freedom's possible?
no subject
Maybe. That's what I'm trying to find out. If I can achieve that in my life, it'll be because it's possible.

You're a genius at something?
no subject
I know someone who's already the Super High School Level Swimmer though so you're pretty much out of luck if you're aiming for that title.
no subject
And I don't care about winning.
[it might be nice to talk to someone else about swimming, though...]
