video [ backdated to the night of the third nightmare ] | action if you're on Route 13

[usedwrench]

[At first, there's a girl sleeping restlessly. Seen lot of people having nightmares recently? Yeah, she's one of them too.

Winry suddenly wakes up screaming and jumps to sit, not realizing that her face is in tears. Count to two, and cover your ears if you don't want to hear a short yell as well.] Ed!!

[Nope, her nightmare had nothing to do with him this time, but she does have a habit of calling for him whenever she's in trouble anyways. Worried sound from her Audino, who is filming this. She was just about to ask what to do, when her trainer woke up and scared her.

Winry looks around, still in panic. Right. Kanto. Traveling with Shiraishi and everything is back to normal. Everything makes sense again. She pets the Eevee, who looks worried near her. Slowly calming down, she takes a deep breath and a moment before she speaks.]

I really hope they won’t get any worse than that, if they’re going to just keep coming... [Hard swallow, followed with a sigh.] Sorry, I don't usually -- wake up like that. [This really isn't going so well! She needs distraction, yup. Distractions are great.]

So, anyone up for sharing some baking and cooking recipes with me? Or awake and up just for a random chat? Or anything entirely random if you’re not feeling like talking, but you’re still awake and have nothing better to do, I guess?

[Welcome to "Distract a girl tonight!", we hope you'll have fun and she's actually really glad to see your face too. Long time no see, uh?]

Try swimming in cold water? Or not, if you'd get sick or if you had nightmares about water. Wash your face with it? No, actually, I'm not even sure if that really helps. But I don't like coffee that much either.

[Also, apparently welcome to Winry rambling night. Good thing she didn't have any nightmares about water because she's right next to a water area thing tonight.]

I like everything, so you should give them to me!

[Trying to keep her NO CRYING WHEN THEY'RE NOT HAPPY TEARS faces here, so good luck with your game face too.]

[No water per say in his nightmares, either, though giant killer whale god might have been involved. Not sure if that counts.]

Dunno, both of those sound pretty tempting. Though I might stick to just... taking a walk or something. I can stay up if I really wanna!

[Why, back when a certain Shedinja incident happened... but that's a whole different story.]

For starters there's that chocolate cookies recipe a friend gave me once...

[He transcribes the recipe as text to the 'Gear albeit I'm far too lazy for that and sends it to Winry.]

There! Think that's clear enough?

[It counts, when the girl has a giant, surfing whale somewhere on PC.]

I think we're going to take a walk too, since I already woke everyone up. Who knows, we all might run into some rare things, that only appear at night.

[Heeeeere super rare pokemon on the area, heeeere... Dangerous, creepy looking or somehow annoying pokemon, please don't bother.]

I could stay up too, but I don't think I want to. [Sleep is important, especially when she has company, who doesn't need to see her having more sleep problems!

Face brightens as she gets the recipe and scrolls through it.]

It's perfect~. Thank you, I'll let you taste them one day, when I'm not in the middle of traveling while asking for this stuff. [Her version of them anyway, of course.]

[He doesn't want to see that. Especially not now.]

You sure 'bout that? It feels like at this hour you could only bump into Ghost-types...

[Yes Crow that's super helpful. And encouraging. Doesn't help he says it with a bright smile on his face.]

Heh, can't wait for that! [He makes a pause, scratching his cheek thoughtfully.] ... Hey, think you've got something to share in return? I don't think I'll be heading back to bed tonight, and I could use some occupation...

[Surely no one would mind if he used the kitchen in the middle of the night!!]

That's okay, I'm sure Argentum would just love to meet all the ghosts here. Let's see if they dare to meet her!

[Argentum being her fierce Poochyena. So have a smile right back. It wouldn't be safe to travel here without something super-effective against ghosts.]

Sure! What do you want? Apple pie, bread with melon or banana in it, carrot cake? Real food?

[She... probably has too many recipes by now anyway, but there's always room for more!]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

That's the spirit!

[Pun not intended. But yeah, that's never been an issue for Crow, seeing how his trusty Murkrow has been following him everywhere since day one.]

How about the banana one? [Melons are... no. Just no.] That sounds neat!

[This is now officially a Midnight Meeting of the Farmer's Wives' Association.]

I think Sabrina is still mad at us too, for taking her down with just one puppy.

[She's had her puppy from... well, as soon as she was able to get one. It even has the same name as her previous Poochyena did.]

It's neat! And sure, just give me a sec. [She'll find it, she'll send it - and yes, let's be lazy.] Promise I'll get to taste it the next time we meet?

[Yes, or they might as well ask if people want to join the club.]

[video]

[darkenedgales]

They're always mad when you beat 'em. The gym leaders, I mean.

[To be fair, he's be pretty pissed off, too, if somebody beat the crap out of him with a few crows, like he did with Sabrina.]

[He takes a moment to study the newly-acquired recipe, nodding to himself as he does.]

Sure! Speaking of which-- where exactly are you, anyway?

[That's kind of important when arranging a meeting.]
