042 - If it's not you, there's no meaning... So I'll head off into the distance...

[Ash's Tauros caused a whole lot of havoc over the weekend, so it isn't surprising that when Monday comes around he has been droned. You may find him wandering the street in his droned state today with perhaps a greeting of...]

Hey! Lovely day, isn't it?

Comments

Oh... Yes, it's a very nice day, I guess.

[ You sound weird, little kid. ]

[bestwishes]

How are you today, Lambo?

[seatcushion.livejournal.com]

...Are you a mind reader? Is this a special talent you have? Or has some nice girl been talking about me?

[bestwishes]

Well, we've been living in the same town all these years, right?

[seatcushion.livejournal.com]

If... you say so.

Forgive me, but what is your name again?

[viridian-knight.livejournal.com]

I...suppose? It seems like a nice day every day here, though.

[Especially since the weather forecast has pretty much been "LOL it's awesome again" for the past week. He wouldn't turn down a little rain or some cloud cover.]

[bestwishes]

Well, that's part of what makes Mayfield a better place to live than the other towns like Westport, or Deadman's Gulch!

[viridian-knight.livejournal.com]

I'm sure, kid. [The stories in Ilsa's welcoming pamphlet notwithstanding. Hal looks Ash over, a certain familiarity nagging at him.]

What's your name?

[bestwishes]

Ash Horse, Mr. Jordan. I live down on Williams Road?

[viridian-knight.livejournal.com]

[He sounds just as hollow and empty-headed as Hal's...oh. The penny drops, an unpleasant feeling that leaves a sour taste in his mouth. His tone smacks of cheery insincerity- he's a bad liar.]

Oh, that's right. Must have slipped my mind. Golly.

How are you enjoying your summer?

[dragonhair.livejournal.com]

Well, it would depend on what you mean by 'lovely'.

[bestwishes]

Well, gee sis... Look at that clear blue sky!

[dragonhair.livejournal.com]

_{[ oh. oh. Iris knows what's going on. ]} The clear blue sky doesn't mean it's going to be a good day. Just nice weather.

[bestwishes]

Well, every day is a good day here in Mayfield!

[dragonhair.livejournal.com]

Of course it is, you idiot.

[Zuko recognizes that voice - it's Ash, AKA That Kid with the Bulls. If he sounds a little different, well, it's probably just that "phone".]

Hey, you're Ash, right? I'm Zuko. I think we spoke on the phone yesterday.

Anyways, did you ever get all your... toross back?

[bestwishes]

"Toross"?

[scorched-prince.livejournal.com]

Whatever those bull things you had loose all over town were called.

[bestwishes]

Golly Zuko, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

[scorched-prince.livejournal.com]

Have you lost your memory or something?

[bluefrompallet.livejournal.com]

Oh, Ashy~! You bet it is! I love warm summer days, don't you?

[bestwishes]

Right, there's nothing better!

[bluefrompallet.livejournal.com]

Aw, it's good to hear you in such great spirits, Ashy!

But you know what else is nice on summer days? ~Ice Cream~.

[bestwishes]

Golly Blue! That does sound good!

[bluefrompallet.livejournal.com]

Golly, you betcha it does! I could really go for some ice cream right about now! What about you?
