Freetime

[ceasetoexist]

[After nearly a year stuck in town, Pokey's kind of figured out the flow of the town. And with the census' having come in, he already knows shit is about to go down. So now? Screw it. It's time to enjoy whatever time he has left to play.

He can be found around town today messing around in several ways.]

A. Grocery Shopping

[If you happen to be doing any shopping at the general store/grocery store today, feel free to notice the fat kid pushing a cart around and apparently doing some grocery shopping himself. Of course, when Pokey grocery shops, he goes for items you'd expect of a kid his size: cookies, sugary cereal, pretty much anything sweet or fattening that he can get his hands on. He also carelessly tosses away anything that he doesn't want. So yeah. Feel free to possibly have a box of something he deems lame accidenttaly thrown at your face.]

B. Grocery Store Parking Lot

[Remember how Pokey was grocery shopping? Well, he's found another use for his cart.

Specifically, he runs a bit, getting momentum, before putting his feet up on the bottom carrying part of the cart. And he is just tearing ass like this all over the parking lot, not really giving a damn. Sure, it's kinda stupid, but hell. It's fun too.

Of course, he's also not really watching where he's going. So there's a good chance Pokey might be smashing his cart into your car.

Or maybe you.]

C. At the Cinema

[Nothing better then a day at the cinemas, huh? Even if, you know. The movies are always the same. Well, the audience isn't exactly the same as it usually is.

If you happened to go to the movies today, you're probably going to have a hard time ignoring the kid near the front, considering he's loudly heckling and making a ruckus at the movie.]

D. At the Comic Shop

[Pokey usually didn't read comics, but hey, why not? This place is stupid as hell, and probably about to get a lot worse. So why not? He'll read some here, and get some to take home. And by "get some to take home", I mean he's occasionally looking around before quickly stuffing one in his coat, hoping no one caught him.

When he's not busy stealing, he's actually actively reading one. Specifically a Batman one. He doesn't think much of it until he stops and flips back a page on the comic he's reading at the moment, and stares. His eyebrows go wide for a moment, just staring.]

Oh, no way.....

E. At the Park with his BB Gun

[Well, to cap off his busy day, Pokey can be found in the park, having set up a couple of cans on one of the benches and continuing to practice with the BB gun he has at actually shooting.

He's still not great, but he's improved from last time. For once, it seems he's actually practicing and learning something.]

[Yeah. That's what he was thinking about. It's been the main thing he's been thinking about since he heard about it. The main thing he's really been avoiding sleep for, when he can.

He just stands there, quietly, before gently shoving the cart away from him and starting to head home. For some reason, he just doesn't feel so hungry any more.]</small. ....See ya.

[Slugger glances up briefly, then kicks at some loose gravel. You won't have gotten very far before he speaks again.]

I couldn't find the pudding cups...

[They haven't been invented. He doesn't know this.]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

[Pokey stops and turns around, shrugging.]

Maybe they don't have them here.

[He snerks a bit, grinning.]

Maybe they don't have 'em just to piss off you.

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

Or you made it up.

[He's still a bit tense but it's fading away. He looks at your abandoned cart full of food.]

Did you pay for that?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Why would I make up pudding cups? That's dumber then dumb.

Don't be stupid. Of course not. They brought me here, the least they could do is give me food for free.

...I'm just not hungry anymore.

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

[Peeking into your cart. Look at all this stuff! A bag of Jay's potato chips? He's going to tuck this under his arm and then pick up a carton of something else.]

Your ice-cream's melting.

[Some of it's dripping out from under the lid and onto his hand... which he'll now be licking.]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

[Well, that stops him some. He'll be snatching that ice cream away from you, or at least trying to. While he may not feel hungry right now, that doesn't mean you can have his crap. He'll go back to the cart and dump it in there.]

Yeah, I should probably get home. Or do you have any other stupid crap to bother me with?

[...He'll let you keep the potato chips though.]

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

[Still licking the rest of it off his hand, he grins a little.]


Not now. Maybe tonight.

[since you have all that tasty junk food...]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Oh boy. I sure can't wait.

[And he'll just start heading off. But at least he feels a little better now too.]

Seeya, nerdlinger.
