Oh, sure! I've been really busy lately myself, or I would have suggested something before. Where do you wanna meet up?

[awesmazings]

I'm not sure yet, actually! I was thinkin' the arcade, but...that'd be kinda like what we did already.

Maybe we could go get something to eat?

[armoredsoul]

Sounds good to me! I feel like I've been eating the same thing over and over for months now, I could do with a change of pace.

[awesmazings]

Alright, cool! S'there anywhere special you wanna go?

I'm sorry I'm so bad at puns...!

[armoredsoul]

I saw a really cool looking place on my way home a few weeks ago--Mongolemian Grill, I think. How about we check that out?

[Oh, Alphonse. You know not the burn you invite upon yourself.]

omg no that's perfect

[awesmazings]

Ooh that sounds pretty neat! Let's do it! Maybe we could meet at the Pokemon Center and walk from there?

[armoredsoul]

Alright! I'll see you there!

[And soon enough, Al is walking up to the Center with a cheery grin and a tiny Emolga perched on his shoulder.]

[awesmazings]

[Jimmy has his Manectric with him when he hails Al as he approaches, trotting diligently at his side as usual.]

Hiya Al! Ready to go?

[armoredsoul]

[Al grins widely to both Jimmy and Leader, and Sol hops off of Al's shoulder to glide around Leader with some happy chirps.]

Uh-huh! It's a bit of a walk from here, but not too bad.

[awesmazings]

[Leader looks up at Sol with a soft woof, his tail wagging slowly.]

Hah, I don't mind walking a little anyway! I've been on the go since the Haunted House opened up, so what's a little more walking around gonna hurt?

[armoredsoul]

[Sol chirps and settles on Leader's head, happy to find a new friend to make.]

Just figured I'd warn you! [He sets off down the street, trusting that Jimmy will follow along.] How is the Haunted House doing this year? I know Envy's been working non-stop on all the costumes.

[awesmazings]

It's been doing great! We've had tons of new people coming to help out, as well as old ones who visited last year. I think Jack would've really been proud of the turnout.

[armoredsoul]

That's awesome! Sounds like a blast. Jack is the one that ran it all before, right?

[awesmazings]

Yup, that's right! I decided I wanted to keep the Haunted House going even though he left, so that's what I plan on doing! And everybody still seems to like it, so I'm glad for that.

[armoredsoul]

I'm glad too! It sounds like you're living up to his legacy, alright.

[awesmazings]

How have you been though, Al? Any new Pokemon adventures to report?
