Good morning.
[A short pause before Ondorus launches into what he's planned to say.]
The places we hail from have profound effects on us. Whether it's the place we were born and raised or - if the two are separate - the place that's taken us in, our homeland provides the perspective we carry with us into the rest of our lives. Nostalgia is a powerful emotion, for good or ill.
...in my experience, anyways.
I imagine there's a fair number among us who miss the worlds we come from. Perhaps it's incorrect of me to make such an assumption, but...well, there's where perspective comes into it. [soft chuckle] So let's talk about the places we know and treasure. What kind of place are you from? And how does Johto compare, with its cities and roads and Pokemon? What is your perspective?
It'd be rude of me to ask without saying anything of my own home, of course. [Another short pause, while he clears his throat off-feed.]
( non-IC cut for WAY TOO MANY WORDS ABOUT A DESERT )
That is my home, in all its glories and hazards. It's sad to think that I will not be able to share it with the Pokemon that I have met here.
[[ooc: feel free to threadjack in this post, if anything interests your character!]]
[edit: WOW GO ME I FORGOT THE ACTION PART uh ondorus can be found around and about the goldenrod breeding center, as usual. reading books, talking to his xatu, sitting out by the pool talking to his lapras, teaching his shiny audino the letters of the alphabet, that kind of stuff. his munna is creeperin' as usual, and the aforementioned shiny audino is a busybody who will go around checking up on anyone who isn't behind a latched door, hugging people's legs and giving them odd things he finds around the house. affectionate baby.]
