four. ☆ ( video / action for violet city )
[ Good morning, Johto! While most of you might have been busy with intense stuff like digging and legendaries, one little girl is just sitting in the lobby of the Pokémon Center as if nothing special happened. The table in front of her is filled with paper in all sorts of colors and she's just cutting away at it and folding it to make all sorts of silly party decorations like paper strings. She's not particularly good at it, but at least it seems she's working hard.
She's humming along to the music, by the way. With her typical 'uu's. ]
Uu-uu-uu... Uu-uu-uu-uu..
[ She starts to making something remotely pumpkin-shaped as a paper string decoration. ]
Uu-, have to work hard for Maria and Lion's ice cream party.. Have to make really pretty decorations so it will be the best party! And then lots of people will come and have fun together, it will be really fun and.. lively..
[ At that last word she drops the paper back on the table, her facial expression dropping. ]
Why.. Uu-.. Why did Battler and Ange go home, why didn't they stay for Maria's party.. uu-..
Beato too.. Beato promised to come! Beato would come visit Maria and then come to the tea party too, uu-uu-! Why? It's not fair, not fai-r! Everyone's leaving without Maria.. uu-uu-!!
[ There's another sniffle and congratulations, Johto, you have earned yourself one kid in the middle of a temper tantrum. She starts crying, the 'uu's still mixed in all over the place, as she picks up one of the paper decorations she made and crumbles it up before throwing it away. ]
( ooc: feel free to action it up if you're in Violet City. )

Uu-.. The Celts thought of the changing strength of the sun over the course of a year as its birth, its growing up period, its aging and death, and then its revival. So they thought that at the end of October the sun died, rested its body in the land of the dead, and then revived again at the winter solstice. Then they called the day that the sun ended its one year lifespan and died New Year's Eve, or Samhain. And that day is October 31st, uu-!

[ NOW THIS IS AMAZEMENT. Probably the most she's had in Johto so far and that's saying something. ]
They have Halloween here in Johto too? Really, really? Want to see, uu-uu-!

Really? What kind of tricks do you play, Maria?

... Kyakyakya, it's a secret! If Maria would tell now, it wouldn't be a real trick anymore!
