[A blanket of black greets viewers when Miles' Pokégear is turned on, the machine taking a few seconds to adjust to the darkness of the night before Miles' face, lit up by the faint light of his screen, comes into view -- guess who's staying up past his bedtime?
Miles is being careful not to be so loud as he uses his Gear, and the soft snoring of Pess can be heard off-screen. As the camera adjusts, the orange glow of a slowly dying campfire casts Miles in a warm, somewhat lonely light, reflecting off of his glazed eyes and something - something wet - on his cheeks. The faint shadow under his eyes shows that he probably hasn't slept well in a while, either.]
......Well, it seems like a storm is brewing in the distance, after all. I can't expect tomorrow to be as clear as it was today.
Wright, you're not still afraid of thunder, are you now? If you are... I wish you luck.
[There is no particular reason why Miles is talking to the camera other than that there was nothing else to do. He simply seems unable to sleep, or maybe he's refusing to do so.]
Cherrygrove shouldn't be too far away. If the storm tomorrow doesn't slow us down too much, and if we hurry, we might arrive by later tomorrow or early Saturday. Will anyone be in the vicinity?
[He pauses.]
I wonder when the morning would come.

[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 01:32 am (UTC)Well, you have your choice between berries and trail mix or berries and trail mix. Tough choice, isn't it? [Smiles]
[action! THE DILEMMA IT BURNS MILES' SOUL. ]
Date: 2010-10-11 01:35 am (UTC)I think. I think I'd like some trail mix...
[action! Apollo asks the tough questions!]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:00 am (UTC)Re: [action! Always the tough questions! Damn you Polly. Damn you. <3 ]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:14 am (UTC)[Miles reaches over and hands Apollo a large portion of the trail mix!]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:21 am (UTC)[He takes some, but not nearly all of it. You're a growing boy! Eat up!]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:35 am (UTC)He decides to put the trail mix between the two of them so they can share! Yeah!]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:40 am (UTC)[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 02:46 am (UTC)Apparently she doesn't like them.
Sighing, Miles lets her eat some of his trail mix.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 03:00 pm (UTC)H-hey, don't do that!
[He just looks at Apollo and goes back to eating...more slowly this time.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 09:48 pm (UTC)In the meanwhile, Pess scarfs down all of the pretzels from his trail mix.]
....Pess. I actually liked those pretzels. [He scowls at her before eating the rest.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 10:00 pm (UTC)[And there goes the last of the berries. Really, now.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 10:03 pm (UTC)How are we suppose to keep six of them?
[Miles is now eying their two canines with apprehension.]
[action!]

Date: 2010-10-11 10:54 pm (UTC)[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:01 pm (UTC)[Apollo shivers a little.] Why is it so cold?
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:15 pm (UTC)I wonder what the season is here, in this world right now.
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:18 pm (UTC)[Well, it's winter for him.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:26 pm (UTC)I wonder. It's cold though.
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:33 pm (UTC)I don't think it matters what we call it. It's still going to be cold. [Pulls his sleeping bag around him tighter.]
[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:35 pm (UTC)[action!]
Date: 2010-10-11 11:41 pm (UTC)I suppose I could.
