[Normal people might be staying inside in this weather. In fact, it would be wise of them to do so.]

[The Doctor, however, is neither normal nor 'people', strictly speaking. So one might find him just outside Violet today, catching every single Pidgey he happens to see. And doing so with a huge grin on his face.]

[His Abra, looking about as annoyed as an Abra possibly can, pokes his head into the frame as if to ask what in Arceus's name is going on.]

[He's watching. Why just pidgey? There are more interesting pokemon. Abra can have a conversation with Sparky if he wants.]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

[Why indeed, Roxas. And after catching yet another one with his Sandshrew's help, the Doctor finally turned around and noticed someone else standing there.]

Oh, hello. What're you doing out here?

[ooc: sorry, should have mentioned it was video, cause Roxas is in Goldenrod. My mistake.]

Why are you just catching pidgey?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

[Whoops, happens to the best of us. <3]

[He picked up the Pokegear, a smile on his face.]

Telling you that would just spoil the surprise.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

The surprise? You have a plan for them?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Course I do, I always have a plan.

[justicepuns.livejournal.com]

Doc-- [cough] Doctor, what are you doing?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Oh, nothing. [He tossed a Pokeball to himself once or twice with a huge grin.] Nothing at all.

[video]

[justicepuns.livejournal.com]

It's not very good weather to be doing "nothing" in.

[Watching the Doctor curiously]

What are you planning to do with all those pidgeys, Doctor?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Well, it's something, of course it's something! It's just a something you don't need to know about yet.

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

What fun would it be if I just told everyone?

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

Oh. You're planning something for Christmas?

[video]

[justicepuns.livejournal.com]

[Just sort of...stares. Oh here comes that sense of dread.]

Does it have something to do wit-- [sneeze!]-- with the festival?

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

You go on and figure it out, it'd be wrong of me to just give all the answers.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

...Festival, what festival? There's going to be a festival?

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

[He mulls this over. While he's curious, the Doctor obviously plans on revealing something later (right?)]

I think I'll wait and see what you're up to. [Laughs]

[video]

[justicepuns.livejournal.com]

Someone told me there's going to be a Christmas festival in Violet.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Is there? Oh, that's brilliant! I love Christmas, I never get to properly celebrate it.

[Video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Good choice, I think. Who wouldn't want to be surprised on Christmas, anyway?

...well, aside from me, all my surprises usually end in explosions or the like.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[He seems a lot more interested now. Plans are good]

Do you have a plan for everything?

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Of course. Thing is, I often only come up with them as I go along, but a plan's a plan.

[video]

[justicepuns.livejournal.com]

I don't know all of the details yet, but I'm sure someone will mention it on the 'gear soon. I just hope it doesn't get snowed out.

[video]

[usedreturn.livejournal.com]

Well, snow is usually the least of my problems on Christmas.

[Pause.]

...I mean that, I almost never get to just enjoy a nice bit of snow in December. There's always one thing or another getting in my way.

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

I haven't celebrated Christmas before...is surprise a part of the tradition?
