Date: Tuesday, July 20, 1999 1:53 PM Silly oozed, in his natural state, into the bar of Brock's Diner in Celadon. He'd left Saffron to try and forget about Famifax by leaving the place he'd met her. No such luck thus far. "Hey, barkeep!" shouted Silly. The bartender was a bit surprised to see the Ditto. "Where's yer trainer, pal?" he said. "Ain't got one. Any case, I got a condition I need cured," said Silly distractedly. "Try the pokecenter," said the barkeep guffly, "this is a bar, not a hospital!" "Hospitals," said Silly, "can cure poson, burns, that stuff. But to cure a heartbreak, you come to a bar." The Bartender was speechless. Silly hopped onto a stool before the barkeep could decide to throw him out. He'd managed to get ahold of some money, so paying for the drink would be no problem. It was amazing what the people in the park would put money in the hat of, as Silly's music was HORRIBLE. Not that he minded, mind you, the money would pay. "So, what's your hardest, barkeep?" asked Silly. "It's called Psyduck Juice, but I don't think you..." Silly interupted the Barkeep in mid-advice. "I'll have that. How much?" The Barkeep set down a glass in front of Silly. "On the house. Can't quite expect money from wild pokemon, and can't deny a drink to a broken heart. Personal vow. 'Sides, something tells me you'd need more than you could afford anyways, pal. If it's enough to..." "Save it," said Silly, "I just came here for a good, hard drink." Silly then proceed to gulp down the "Psyduck Juice". Several hours and several dozen glasses later, the Barkeep uprooted Silly's slumbering form from the stool. "I think you've had enough, pal," he said. "Um, " said Silly, changing into James, "Do you have a sister? Are you married, and is it to... Ah, forget it..." The bartender threw the drunk, confused Ditto onto the street, and he somehow blundered onto a bench and fell asleep, returning to his normal state. TBC... Shard Fields, who hopes no one got offended by that bit about James, it wasn't meant to be something James'd say, that's the joke. .sig not included. Shard Fields on AGNP Megasomething on ATT
