DEM'S FIGHTIN WORDS [Audio]

[tsuntrader]

[...You know, being all agitated and wound up because of the giant chain of kidnappings in house 11 is doing him no good. It's time for a change of pace. It's time for something important. Really important. So important, in fact, that he's pulling out his journal right this minute to bring it up until just waiting until he sees Gold. He would try to filter it to him, but whatever, like he cares.

So his journal is out, and for once, he's actually using his voice... Because he lost all his pencils. Whoops. Whatever, this is best said and not written anyway.]

Hey Gold, don't you think it's about time we had a battle? It's been way too long. [...No, too simple. Too friendly. Not... Challenging enough. Yeah, that's it.]

Of course, we both know that there's no way you'd beat me in a million years, so if you're not up for it, no hard feelings.

[That's much better.]

[tsuntrader]

You bet we do. [Although Silver's reasons for this probably don't match up with Green's reasons.]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

Have fun with it.

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

[...Did Green of all people just say the f word?]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

[Hey, Green is no stranger to the concept! He just doesn't like wasting time or dicking off. Battles are never a waste of time!]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

...Sure. [Fun.]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

That's the point, after all. Battling with your rival.

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

[...Yeah, Green's right. Silver simply nods along.]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

What's your plan?

[LET'S TALK BATTLE STRATEGY.]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

...Plan?

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

What strategy are you taking into battle?

[HE WAS ALL EXCITED FOR A SECOND THERE.]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

...I'll figure that out when we actually battle.

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

So you fight like Red used to.

[WHY DOES THIS FRUSTRATE HIM SO MUCH? Probably because he thought he had another person who battled like him, when it's really just someone who trained like him.]

I'll see how well that works for you, I guess.

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

It's the only way to battle against Gold. He's completely unpredictable.

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

Hmm.

[See, now Green's wondering if that's actually the case. He's been planning a good real fight between himself and Red, but now he's thinking of strategies against Gold and wondering what he's going to be seeing in this battle.]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

...Besides, I like staying flexible and thinking of things on the fly.

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

There's no reason not to have both on hand.

[But Silver formulating plans and setting up awesome shit for battles is the best. Especially when your opponent is not as perceptive as you!]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve, if that's what you're getting at. [It's not like he's going into the battle completely unprepared.]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

There's something to be said for setting up your opponent before they can realize what you're planning.

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

[...Nod. Fair enough.]

...Hey, Senior Green.

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

Hmm?

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

I never got to telling you about Rhydon's evolution.

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

[...! Well well well! It's probably been a while since you've seen such an invested and fascinated look from your senior, Silver!]

Yes?

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

It didn't take long to figure it out at all, but I haven't had much of a chance to bring it up. [And now he's heading to his room and motioning for Green to come follow him. Come on.]

[Action]

[cooltrainer]

[Green follows, looking very curious! He's rather quick to enter into Silver's room, slacking off in his coolness for a brief moment. He's excited, most definitely.]

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

[Silver immediately goes into his dresser and pulls out his father's book... Which is full of papers, sticky notes, and little markers. It's a bit of a mess. He's quick to sit down on his bed and immediately flip through the pages.]
