POI 1 - VIDEO

[luckydragonsfoot]

Alrigh', there's lots 'f bribes goin' around, which 's great....f'r good stuff mostly, since Romeo's pretty great too...but I ain't got a bribe, I got a threat!

[One can practically see the steam of determination blast through his nostrils as he exhales there. Or wait maybe that was smoke??

Don't worry about it.

Katsuya holds up a sheep.]

See Amar here? Amar gets sheared a bunch after a mission. Like, a whole bunch. Gotta get rid'f all tha' wool from usin' cotton guard like a big bowlin' ball shield. Anyone ever see when half th' kitchen sinks were full 'f wool? Tha's why. They get big an' round an' stop fittin' through th' doors.

An' I gotta soak it after trimmin' it off, b'fore it can be used f'r anythin'. Like yarn an' such.

But ehhh... [He grimaces, and shrugs.] ....Bein' real, ev'n if all of us voted, no way we'd get th' pet care carriage tha' fast, so here's a better idea. Vote f'r yer small stuff, sure- but eh...try puttin' one 'r two toward a spot where we can keep all th' animal hair, capisce? It'll mean less for whoever's cleaaaaaaninnnnn..~

[So he says with a grin at the camera, before Amar the wooloo simply bleats.]

Oh an' uh...I mean I ain't one t' gripe abou' sharin' cots with animals 'r anythin', but th' title is 'Groom an' KENNELS' an' all, which 's pro'bly better than lettin' these guys run all over the train whenever righ'? So look, jus' toss a vote 'r two there while yer goin' nuts over everythin' else, I can't handle 600 on my own.

[A pause as he moves to turn the video off, before he shoots back into the screen.] OH AND UH, THANKS T' WHOEVER PUT IN ANOTHER VOTE F'R IT, YER GREAT!

[Okay now he's done.]

...I'll see what I can do for votes, just in case I say anything that gets wool dumped outside my door.

[ Said in the way of 'I was going to be cheeky but also, Katsuya's got the guns here'. ]

We got any big buckets you could use though? For soaking the wool. My pal Gibbs can give you the water - he can jump right in and fill 'em. Make it easier than dealing with the sinks.

[ Plus, you know.

...leaving wool in the kitchen sinks... ]

[luckydragonsfoot]

Hell yeah! An' don' worry, th' closest I'm gettin' with tha' one is walkin' back 'n forth with th' spindle.

Nyhhh...I dunno about buckets though, kinda a pain t' dump those....'s jus' easier t' drain th' sinks; plus I can get th' wool upstairs an' on those dryin' racks pretty quick...

[....That said.] ..Who's 'Gibbs'?

[blitzcheer]

He's a higgledy - kinda like your pokémon? He's a little water guy who can make it and absorb it - s'long as he wants to. I'd show you him, but- he's over in the new snow car, playing.

[ And falling over a lot. ]

He's about this big. [ He makes a height in his hands - about no bigger than a 2 litre coke bottle. ] If you've seen a lil' guy with a crown and cape, that's him.

[luckydragonsfoot]

Huhhhh...Guess it makes sense, there bein' pokemon that ain't pokemon...so he's a water sort huh? Hey, I still don' know about th' bucket idea, but y' think he'd be down to help dryin'? Y' said he does absorbin' right?

[happyends]

Um.. I'll try to see if I can help.

[ Although Madoka sure has other options on that list she wants, but she's having a hard time being selfish.. Maybe it's her current sad mood that makes it even harder at the moment, really. It makes every little thing explode inside of her head, making her look kind of sad as she answers.

.. though apparently he does get a bit of scolding here, even if it's very weak and sad scolding, since Madoka adds: ]

But.. if you're making a lot of mess, isn't it nicer to clean it up yourself then..? [ Oh no, Katsuya, now even the kids are coming after you.

Don't leave that for the people cleaning to clean up, dude!! ]

[luckydragonsfoot]

Hey!

I didn't say I don't clean it up!

But it's like showers, y'know? Y' try all y' want....but some of tha' crap ends up bein' missed. Not my fault.

[happyends]

[ Please, Katsuya, you very much underestimate the amount of time Madoka spends picking hair out of the shower just because she doesn't want to be a bother..

.. and the same thing is happening here, right now. Madoka goes quiet, seeming to think, before cautiously offering: ]

S-Should I help you clean up then after you do that..?

[ Even though it's none of her mess in the first place. ]

[luckydragonsfoot]

Nyh!? You don't have t'! I'm jus' sayin', it just ain't possible t' catch every hair! An' that crap builds....

[That's right Madoka. There's STILL pink hair in there!

...

don't feel guilty don't feel guilty-]

[motherofresistance]

[Leia smiles.]

You're welcome. Given that the number of animals on the train is likely to only go up, I thought it was a good idea.

[luckydragonsfoot]

Nyh!?

You did? Hah! Thanks a bunch! I mean...'s jus' one vote, but bit by bit righ'?

[motherofresistance]

I did. I don't plan to make all my votes public, but since you mentioned it specifically... And yes, every bit helps.

Also, on a personal note, I do like this new voting system. It's a much fairer way to request additions to the train than a one-time poll.

[luckydragonsfoot]

It was you!? Aw man, thanks lady!

[katsuya don't be rude-]

An' tell me abou' it! Was beginnin' t' think someone would get axed over 'Art' an' 'Pool'....

1/2

[mustknow]

Kennels would be a fantastic idea so long as it doesn't suddenly become a given team's rotating duty to clean it. Unfortunately I have already lent my votes to other sources of protein besides meat in case of herbivores joining us, or another month of octopus, but once that is accomplished I can offer what points ... or votes I get, for that goal.

2/2

[mustknow]

[After a few minutes offscreen, Xehanort returns suddenly his expression visibly more cheerful.]

Ah that's what I get for not checking, it seems herbivore options have already succeeded! In that case, kennels in the future.

Re: 2/2

[luckydragonsfoot]

HELL YEAH!

An' hey, food's important! Sure, plants ain't my thing, but if it's all a guy can eat, then we oughta get it in stock!

...'sides, even I can't tell myself we're gettin' Kennels tha' fast...I mean sheesh, 600...

Fill th' small crap first, an' stick t' one or two in th' kennels at this point...

[mustknow]

Some studies I have read suggest that people are very broadly going to favor short waits and small rewards over a greater reward that takes longer to achieve, but I'm willing to do what I can towards it. We're in for a world of headache if someone shows up with animal allergies.

[blue_ice]

Snapper's small enough to not cause any trouble, but...I'll pivot to that starting next month. We have half a zoo already.

[luckydragonsfoot]

Yeah! They d'serve a spot they can play around f'r themselves!

Plus, not all of 'm come along when we're on missions, y'know?

[blue_ice]

Mm. I'd feel safer leaving Snapper behind if I knew she was somewhere comfortable. She's smart, but she's still too young to fight.

[sizedoesntmatter]

It already got my vote. No need to ask.

[The things he would do to make his friends happy. Plus he could see the benefits for those who really needed it.]

[luckydragonsfoot]

Heheeee! Thanks a bunch Yug'!

[sizedoesntmatter]

You don't need to thank me you know this, right?

[gundamofthedesert]

[Quatre is rather endeared by the sheep. It is very cute]

Yes, that does seem like it would be a good option. Not only would it keep things more organized, but you also wouldn't have to carry the wool all the way through the train. Plus, then others with pets would have somewhere to keep them during the missions.

[luckydragonsfoot]

YEAH! ...I mean I'm still don' tha' part, 's how I get it all spun but.

Yeah!! Exactly! An' hell, prob'bly more comfortable for them t' sleep there for most too...

[Most does not include his pokemon.]

[gundamofthedesert]

True. It probably is more comfortable for them to sleep. It is a lot of points that you need, but I'll definitely work on helping with the goal.

[Since you are his friend and the animals need a place too!]

Perhaps, maybe at sometime you can show me how you spin the wool?
