[Action for Cherrygrove]

[If you happen to go to the restaurant, you may find yourself being waited on by a certain ponytailed fellow in a very nice apron.]

Hello there! Welcome to Cherry Grove's. Can I start you off with some drinks?

[The feed flicks on, showing a Cherrygrove hotel room and a somewhat weary Asuma. Still, this doesn't stop him from giving a small wave and his usual smile.]

Hello! I have made it to Cherrygrove, if any of you were wondering. I've taken a job at a local restaurant to generate a little money before I set off again.

What else... Ah! I've also acquired another Pokémon. I found him out rather late -

[The camera turns shakily towards a Hoothoot, which appears to be sleeping on its perch. Somehow sensing it is being watched, it opens one eye halfway and gives a quiet 'hoo' before returning to its nap. The camera then returns to Asuma.]

I figure I should try to collect a variety of Pokémon for breeding, so I went ahead and caught him. He seems nice enough.

So, how is everyone else doing? I know I've been enjoying the warm weather. Has anybody else?

Oh? What was your job, if you don't mind me asking?

The uniform isn't a giveaway?

I would guess some kind of soldier, but I'm not familiar enough with the military to recognize the difference between ranks, I'm afraid.

Brigadier general, to be specific.

[Have an impressed whistle.]

That's quite high, isn't it?

[action]

[king-of-flames.livejournal.com]

Only three ranks away from the highest rank available during peacetime.

Wow. In that case, I can definitely see what you mean. After that, doing a lower-end civilian-class job mustn't seem like much.

[king-of-flames.livejournal.com]

Pretty much. And the pay is chump change compared to my salary back home.

[And that's without getting into his state alchemist's research fund.]

Yes, the pay is pretty low, isn't it? I'm already planning to tip waiters and waitresses more whenever I have the means.
