I wonder if gambling's illegal here. Maybe there's some hidden place beneath one of these cafés that's got some billiard tables.

[oh, there's a café down the way

café woof]

[Café woof?

...Well, it's something. Let's head in.]

You think they have a dumb secret switch behind a poster or something?

Nah, man, this is the kind of place that'd have one under the counter--

[THEY ARE GOING TO BE ACCOSTED BY A YOUNG MAN

"Excuse m! I've got to know - how do you style your Furfrou's... Oh, excuse me, neither of you seem to have one." he even gives them a pitying look]

What's a Furfrou? Sounds tasty.

[and the most TAKEN ABACK GASP from the young man]

[Gold gets a small elbow jab. You can't style food, dummy.]

Never heard of it.

[DON'T YOU TELL HIM YOU CAN'T STYLE FOOD

THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A NORMAL MEAL AND A GOURMET MEAL

the man gasps again, but he takes both of silver's hands - grrr - and pulls him to a table

he will teach you, favorable one who didn't want to eat ARCEUS'S GIFT TO MANKIND

and gold can sit in the corner nyeh

"Absolutely the fluffiest, cutest, and most dependable Pokémon in all the world! Furfrou's fur can be styled any number of ways, and with its amazing ability nothing can hurt it." exaggeration never hurt a fly!! "There's a stylist next door who is an expert at trimming Furfrou! If you ever catch one, be sure to see them."]

Okay, but what is it?

[a DIRTY LOOK AT THE RUDE BOY

please shut thy mouth knave

and he will show them what a PERFECTLY GROOMED furfrou looks like

woeuf]

... Pfft-- Hahahaha! It looks ridiculous!

[...That's nice and all, but it's only for asthetics...

...Whatever. He can appreciate it more than Gold, at least.] Do they only trim Furfrou, or do they care for other Pokémon, too?

[...Woeuf. Right. That explains the café name.]

[this is why the furfrou enthusiast is sitting with you, Silver, and not that stray you call a boyfriend

"I guess they can care for others, but their specialty is most definitely Furfrou. And why shouldn't it be! From their floppy long ears to their big paws, Furfrou are just the most fantastic friends!"

sigh ♥]

Well, I guess it's pretty cute. [and (much to her owner's displeasure) the Furfrou doesn't seem to mind Gold petting her too] That's a ton of fur for one dog to carry around.

...What else can you make them look like? [I mean, if they can trim stars and stuff into them...]

["Many, many things! My fiancee's Furfrou has a trim that makes him look positively darling, with a sunhat and all, and there's even one that resembles ancient kings."

sigh. so much to do with Furfrou, so little time and a law that doesn't allow them for more intimate relations

-- but did someone say doggy friend because Gold's hoodie is beginning to wiggle around and

there is the lil Growlithe popping his head out

hi pretty poodle lady

(though the enthusiast looks aghast)]

Oh, hey there little guy. Didja have a good nap? [yea] We're in a new region right now.

[Growlithe!] It's called Kalos, and this girl's called a Furfrou. [Sorry Furfanatic you've been forgotten for a moment because baby puppy]

[Furfrou is interested in puppy too and doesn't mind when the Growlithe shuffles out of Gold's hoodie and onto her head

yea this is cool

hi mapa silver and pama gold

kalos smells nice]

Hey, can that stylist give this guy a trim?

[a ghast

"Absolutely not! No! And get that-- that mutt off of my wondefrou Furfrou's head! Oh, my poor darling girl, look at you, reduced to some sort of-- pedestal for that pup!"

Furfrou doesn't really agree but

back to Silver you go, pup]

Hey, watch it buddy.

...Excuse you.

[C'mere Growlithe, we're out of here

so out of here

we are so much better than this dumb place-]

Edited 2013-11-07 05:52 (UTC)

[yeah so much better

the Furfrou fan doesn't even look the least bit bothered, just sticks his nose up in the air and 'hmphs!' while brushing his precious Furfrou

who gives a wave to them both

goodbye puppy

(goodbye poodle lady)]

Kalos might be a land of beauty, but I'd say it's more of a land full of people with fancy sticks up their asses.

There's gotta be somewhere with reasonable people. [Instead of fashion obsessed snobs.] Maybe the grooming place will be better.

Maybe. Wanna be groomed, little dude?

[yea

yea he wants to be groomed

let's go get groomed

the stylists seem happy to see them anyway because 1. customers and 2. RARE CUTE PUPPY POKEMON abubuuu]

[Someone in this city that doesn't have a stick up their ass? He's not sure if he believes it.

...Well, whatever. As long as everyone's happy...

You ready to be clean, buddy?]

[yea ready to be clean yea

yea

one of the interns will come sit with them though she's a nice pretty gal

"He's so well-behaved! Even though he's so young... Where are you two from?"]

Johto. Y'know, pretty far from here and all. [he's got a boyfriend but gold maaay be leaning in just a little, grinning, being kinda friendly...] Could appreciate a nice guide to take us around the city. What d'you think, Silver?

I think we can figure it out. [He. He saw this coming. As long as he looks and doesn't touch, it's fine...]

[that's so mean to expect silver

so mean

not untrue but so mean

a sigh fiiiine]

At least she can point us to a nice place to eat, or somethin' like that.

["Lumiose is as famous for its cafés as it is its tower! There's a lot of them... On this street we have the one beside us and there's a bitter medicine shop down the way. There's another café, Café Classe, across the way that's famous for its fashion fanatics. If it isn't too rude to say, you two could do with some tips. Your clothing wears you!"

oh

...

did she diss my style silver]

Everyone keeps saying that. What gives?

[She dissed mine too okay and I am way more fashionable than you]

[you're so rude we've discussed this YOU ARE NOT MORE FASHIONABLE THAN ME

"It's just... Well, you're kind of dated in fashion. The clothes themselves aren't in bad taste, but you're a few seasons behind."]

So what? They've comfy.

[she

laughs

sorry

"Fashion and style is what Kalos is famous for! If you want to get anywhere in the city, you're going to have to be trendy."]

[am too mister red black and yellow

at least I'm color coordinated]

Do I still get to wear a cape?

[Capes never go out of fashion right

he can rock some different clothes for a while sure-]

["Capes are coming back in, actually, so you're doing better than your friend here."

god DAMMIT really]

Well, great, I'll remember that when I go out next time. [could not be more sarcastic] And where can we get new duds, then?

[honestly the garbage would be better clothes than what he's got on rn

but

"Well... The Boutique in town is a little out of your league, but there's many of them around in Kalos that'll happily open their doors to you. Café Classe has someone in there that knows all about them."

growlithe is enjoying himself btw yea happy bath yea]

[You hear that Gold

my cape is fashionable]

We'll keep that in mind.

[it's gonna be more fashionable when you're usin it to tie my wrists to a bedpost, dude

can you do that that sounds kind of hot fuck--

"My sister's a big fashion freak, like even for Lumiose, so it's no problem! I like fur over faux any day myself." yes she's pleased to have helped some walking disasters

it looks like they're beginning to style Growlithe's fur too]

Wonder what they'll make him look like. [an ancient king??? a pussy??? no it's just gonna be a trim because his fur's getting kind of long. speakin of long tho Gold'll play with Silver's hair] Hey, let's get haircuts too. Yours is lookin' a little lengthy.
