Hello! You've reached Jake English's Pokewhatsit! Unfortunately, I might be too busy to take your call, so please leave a message and I'll get back to you ASAP.
Dude, are you okay!? I just saw that broadcast from Team Rocket. You weren't anywhere near the tower, were you??
[He knows that people supposedly can't die in Johto. But dammit, he's still worried. Because nobody has ever really...outright confirmed that. He's come close himself before but that's not the same as "yeah this one time I totally got blown up but I totally survived it."]
[And he's not crazy about the idea of Jake being the one to test this.]
[Jake has to clear his throat a bit before answering, but he sounds a little hoarse.]
Fit as a fiddle, John. [He pauses for a second.] I was in the Tower, but Anika was able to help me get out. I'm thankful for having a water type on me at the time.
hi jake! roxy and i just saw the video and were pretty certain thats sprout tower by violet :( according to our map and the guide book i picked up if you get a chance to text or call us back please do!! we still have about six days before we are at your location or we would check for ourselves i sincerely hope you are well!
Yes that would have been sprout tower going up in a raging inferno. I ah got to see it up close and personal. Im alright though! A few nicks and bruises but ill be right as rain in a day or two! I was lucky to have had a water type on me.
[He has to repeatedly tell himself that people don't die here. It's not even a thing. It isn't like the game where they were all in love with dying. Bro is in that city and so is Jake and fucking shit mom and aradia were on their way there.
He'd be flipping tables if some cynical part of him wasn't saying I fucking told you life could never be good.]
Hey, Jake. We heard about the fire Team Rocket just unleashed like some explosive diarrhea. Like they had all you can eat taco night and just shit themselves in front of everyone. Uh, anyway. Give us a call and let us know how you are.
[Jake sounds hoarse, but otherwise like he's okay.]
You would have heard right, chap. I'll be right as rain in a day or two since, ah, I kind of was in the tower a moment ago. Nothing to worry about, a few nicks and bruises, but the thanks goes to both Lady Luck and my Croconaw that I made it out at all.
[Even though she was pretty sure it was impossible to actually die here, that didn't really lessen the surge of worry Jade felt when she saw the video on the network. She had to know if he was okay...]
Jake! I saw what happened in Violet... Were you near the tower? Are you okay?
[Jake sounds hoarse and a little tired, but nothing indicates that he's suffering serious injuries.]
I'm alright! I was, uh, in the tower, but I had Anika, my Croconaw, with me and she was able to bust us out lickity split. I've suffered no serious injuries, but I'd like to know who the hell thought that was a good idea.
[Rose is a sweetie and Jake's feeling really lucky he's got such great friends.]
Hullo, Rose. I'm alright after taking a shower and having a power nap. Granted I still look like hell, but not much I can do to fix that up. My Pokemon are doing great, though Anika's refusing to get into her ball just yet. I think she's still worried, considering she has yet to detach her jaws from my hand.
audio; 11/22; approx five or six minutes after the post about the sprout tower fire.
[ Roxy's barely awake when she sees the video about the fire, and haphazardly calls Jake's pokegear to make sure he's not on fire. ]
Jake, you better not be on fire. [ beat ] Except the hot kind, wink wink. [ pause for a second, because REALLY ROXY ] No, but really, don't catch on fire!
audio; 11/22; lol Roxy. About half an hour or so later
Then we're both in luck that I'm not literally on fire. Maybe a few light burns, but nothing major. It was definitely startling, though! Rotten time for me to try touring Sprout Tower.
[ Why yes, she is a tad amused by that. She's also opting for voice over text since it has been a while since the last time they spoke and voice is simply the more personal option. ]
Hi, Jake! This is Valeria. I just thought I'd call to see how you were since it's been a while. I do hope you're doing well. [ A beat. ] Well, get back to me when you can! I'll be around, I'm sure.
Haha, feels like years since I've recorded that! I think perhaps I should update my voicemail message.
[Val can probably hear the grin on his face.]
Hullo, Val! It's always a pleasure to hear from you! I'm fine and dandy, and I feel like things are calming down for me, now. My Pokemon are as healthy and happy as can be, too. How about you?
Too busy fr me? Really Jake. I guess sleep is important thuogh. You are a growing boy. Mre like young man. I bet you adn Dirk are cuddled up rihgt now, too.
