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.]

[mischiefbreeder]

[At first, Gold was going to scoff at Silver's declaration of challenge. As if he had a chance of ever beating Gold. That's ridiculous. But that second part meant war. Gold's pride was on the line. There was no way he could turn down that challenge now.]

I think you've got that backwards.

Written

[infinitefrown]

[...! relevant to his interests

And the challenge was issued publicly, so--]

Will you be allowing spectators?

[Voice]

[tsuntrader]

No, I'm sure I've got it just right. [Yeah, that's right, Gold better take his challenge.]

[Voice]

[mischiefbreeder]

As if! I'll beat you so bad you'll be feeling the loss a million years from now!

[generalflirt]

And where is this one, Senpai? Us newer folks ought to sit in.

[Him. Maybe Hiccup. Maybe Chien. but definitely him and the busty blonde.]

Voice whoops

[tsuntrader]

[...] As long as we get space. [A lot of it.]

[tsuntrader]

...I've got no clue. [He... Probably should have thought about that one.]

[shamelessness]

M-may I watch?

[She... kind of wants to learn How to Do It Right.]

[Voice]

[tsuntrader]

Keep talking. You're just making it worse for yourself.

[tsuntrader]

Yeah. It would be a good thing for you guys to watch, I guess.

[infinitefrown]

Of course. Only natural, for a battle. [unless you're on a subway but that's beside the point--ANYWAY.

Looking at the other responders that aren't Gold-- ah, the newcomer Trainers. They ought to see too, huh.

There's a pause, before he continues writing--] We'll have to find a relatively safe location for spectators, judging by those who have expressed interest-- wouldn't want those unaccustomed to Pokémon battles to be in too much danger...

[shamelessness]

Skarmy and I would really love to learn how real trainers do it!

[Voice]

[mischiefbreeder]

You're all talk, Silver. Let's see you actually back it up. I've got a few surprises in store for you!

[tsuntrader]

You guys are gonna have to stay pretty far back, though. [They'll need all the space they can get.]

[shamelessness]

Of course! We wouldn't want to be in the way.

[tsuntrader]

...Is there somewhere like that in Luceti? [He can think of the beach, but that's an unfair advantage. Definitely not the forest, no matter what. The mountains are a little out of the way unless they take the teleporter to the hot springs, but even then, it's really uneven ground and it might even crumble because of their battle...]

[Voice]

[tsuntrader]

You're not the only one with a few surprises.

[tsuntrader]

That and you guys could get hurt. [Which is more important here.]

[shamelessness]

We'll make sure you won't have to worry about us.

[Voice]

[mischiefbreeder]

Whatever. So when are we doin' this?

[Voice]

[tsuntrader]

[...Uh...]

[tsuntrader]

...Thanks. [It means a lot, even if that's still their responsibility.]

[shamelessness]

So where do you think you're going to battle at?

[tsuntrader]

...We're still figuring that one out.

[shamelessness]

W-why not the battle dome? Skarmy and I train there sometimes.
