[text/action] forward dating to super early thurs morning + mid afternoon [video]
Dear Poppop,
After what happened the other night, I feel I need a little self reflection time.
If you could please keep an eye on Jake, Dirk and Aradia,
I would be incredibly grateful.
- Jane
To Dirk,
Please don't worry about me, Mr. Strider!
I felt like taking a short trip on my own,
and on a spur of the moment feeling, decided to leave early.
I will keep in touch!
- Jane
To Aradia,
I do hope it won't be much trouble to ask that you to keep Jake and Dirk out of trouble.
Jake with his sense of direction,
and Dirk with his sassy, cool attitude.
I will keep in touch,
so please don't worry!
- Jane
Jake,
I sincerely apologize for the way I behaved at the party,
it was absolutely terrible of me to let myself get so drunk.
I thought about my actions, and decided to take a small trip.
I will keep in touch, so don't worry about me.
- Jane

(action)
[Now that she was packed up and those notes were promptly placed on their respective doors, Jane made quick work of slipping on her boots and jacket. Very quietly, she slipped out the door and shut it even quieter, and led her small group of Pokemon towards the south end of town. On reaching the very edge, Jane moved and saddled up on her Deerling, two Growlithe moving in to flank her, and both strapped with two eggs each; Jane carried the last that had been on James' back.
Over the river and through the woods,
to nowhere in particular she goes..]

[It's much later in the day when the video feed gets bumped on, where Calli the Chikorita is wiggling the gear with her vines, holding it out of reach of a whining Shinx. In the background, there's sounds of ... a battle? Lou and James are in the middle of a tag team battle, taking on some wild Pokemon with Jane and judging from the sounds that continue, are doing quite well; Calli and Geoff continue playing tag with the gear for another good ten minutes, before there is some displeased barking.
Both little ones drop the gear and scurry away, where a Growlithe shows up on the feed and yaps at the screen some more. It's not much longer before Jane finally appears, looking.. well, all sorts of weary and tired. Giving the dog Pokemon a dubious look, she reaches down to get the gear.]
Comet, shush! No one is there!
[Rubbing one eye and looking at the screen again, Jane almost jumps out of her skin on seeing that red recording light. Smacking her hand over the camera, she fumbles a few minutes before it turns off.]
no subject
The simple motion of Gamzee getting out of the tree and addressing her so damn casually has Jane feeling so much more awkward. Fuck you, party. Fuck you.]
H..hey, I didn't realize you were out in this area already! [Her face is a nice shade of pink and she's trying to hunker down into her scarf.]
no subject
Big motherfucking cities ain't for me. When you live your life alone on a shoreline too many fuckin' people ain't all that fun.
no subject
[Pausing, she sucks in a breath and unburies her face long enough to make an apology.] I uh. I'm sorry for my silly behavior at the party, the other night! I'm afraid the drinks were spiked and I was more than drunk off my ass.
no subject
But it's hidden behind that same smile and a chuckle as he completely ignores her first statement to respond to the second.]
No idea what you're talkin' about sis. Not a single motherfucking clue. Must not be something you need get your sorry on for.
no subject
Still, it's not like this topic is any less embarrassing.]
The um.. kissing.. stuff. It's not very proper to go about doing that sort of thing when we only know so much about each other and I'm pretty certain I made a bit of a mess [-and she could keep going but instead, smacks her hands over her mouth and face.]
Maybe I should have just taken the option you gave of pretending it didn't happen.
no subject
[Sorry, were there personal bubbles during awkward moments? Because Gamzee has no fucking idea what that is and just pats her on the shoulder.]
Motherfuckin' human tradition. Ain't your fault you had your brain all muddled without a clue what you were doin'.
[And he's not apologizing for taking advantage of the situation in the first place. He's not sorry.]
no subject
[Whoops what personal bubbles; Jane jerks in a bit of surprise at the pats, before sheepishly smiling, even if her hands are covering her red cheeks still.]
Well, I'm just afraid I may have taken advantage of you for not knowing that the human tradition doesn't quite go so far. It's more like.. simple chaste things, or kisses on the cheek. [HA, HA HA, HA HA HA.... YEAH, SHE BROKE HER OWN RULES when it came to Jake.
Sob.]
no subject
He doesn't correct her though, just shrugs it off.]
Ain't no motherfuckin' problem sis. Got your panties all up in a twist for no reason.
no subject
If.. you insist. Thank you, then. [Give her a moment to realize where they are, location wise.] Were you traveling out to Azalea by chance?
no subject
Nah. Just motherfucking felt like followin' you. Ain't got a clue where I'm gonna go. Thinkin' of goin' back to keep an eye on my palebro for a bit but who the motherfuck knows.
