Concluded getting lost in a cave to be an all around interesting but undesirable experience. Believe I could use some coffee and a good night's sleep.

Are there always trainers in this Union Cave? Those I've encountered never appeared to want to leave.

[Guess who made it to Azalea? Action if you feel like running into him on the streets or at the inn/center.]

As long as you still manage, I guess it's not an urgent problem.

_{[Coop can tell - but this chattiness has a rather good effect on him, too.]}

It sounds like you've got yourself covered. I take it there's a lot to see and do there?

Well, Goldenrod is nowhere as beautiful or grand as my Paris, but it's so good to be back in a real city that actually has nightlife and actual economy! I'm planning to explore around a bit more after I get a better footing on just find my way along the beaten path. I'll probably check out the bike shop tomorrow; I miss cycling.

I don't think I've ridden a bicycle since I was 12.

_{[He picks up on that particular sentence, yes. He isn't sure what to feel about big cities anymore. Pondering this for a second, that's what he says.]}

And I haven't seen a 'real city' for some time now. I've grown quite attached to these smaller towns.

Really? It's a lot of fun, especially if you're visiting the countryside.

<font size="1'>[France gives Cooper a curious look.]</font> Did your work bring you to smaller towns more often than larger ones?

[Video]

[tapestodiane]

No, not really. But my latest case is in a beautiful small town near the border, and none of the towns I've seen so far in Johto have been much bigger.

_{[There's a certain kind of wistfulness in his way of saying this.]}

The border?



What's the case about?

_{[The case ... well. It isn't really just one case, anymore. And though solved, it's not something he particularly likes to discuss.]}

The murders of several girls. I don't believe it's a topic for a day like this.

Have you been able to locate the Inn or the Center yet?

[Video]

[tapestodiane]

_{[Cooper appreciates the change of subject, and though his expression remains solemn, he lightens up visibly on locating the Inn, almost in cue to France's question.]}

I believe I have. I think I will allow myself the luxury of a nap. I'll talk to you later, France?

[Video]

[of-france.livejournal.com]

Definitely talk to you later! Never be a stranger with me: if you need a reason to call me, I'm always happy to help with your French...

_{[Cooper grins in response.]}

I'll keep that in mind.
