Pokemon Asks: TMs (ORAS) - Accepting TM07:Hail - What bad habits do you have?

"Overworking myself, pushing my boundaries... Not asking for help soon enough, I guess?"

This was supposed to be one of the easy ones. Few connections within the Road, even fewer that were still alive — presumably not many connections outside of work, either. Very few of them had those. Nobody waiting at home for them, nobody to notice any missed calls... It meant Jesper often had a luxuriant amount of time to clean up, tie the loose ends, and get out of dodge before anyone saw anything amiss.

The target works at a gas station in the middle of fuckoff nowhere. Well, worked is more apt, considering the guy had his throat slit behind the dumpsters about half an hour before he was supposed to clock off.

Jesper, admittedly, was negligent; the entire drive out here, he'd seen maybe three other cars. And the station backed up onto a chain link fence, which backed onto a small grass plain, which in turn backed onto some trees.

Nothing but animals out there, nothing but the stars looking down, and nobody but the target working the night shift. Except, as he wipes his knife on the ex-target's sleeve, he sees someone watching him who definitely hadn't been there before.

He sighs, and pulls a gun.

"Heey there, buddy."

Jacks had just approached the cage the other was held in. Casually strolling up to him, a copper scent clinging to the punk.

"You are really hard to find, you know this?"

A cowboy, a cat and a punk walk into a bar.

Anxious Munday Meme! [still accepting]

[[Oh I am the worst at this. There are people I have been mutuals with for literal years and never spoken to until a third party introduced us directly. And not just mutuals but like, we have followed each other across several different blogs (both mine and theirs) for mulitple years levels of bad.

Some examples of this include but aren't limited to my wife Cris (@thegatesofinfinitespace ) and Spoop ( @darckcarnival ) and in both cases someone else had to put us into a group chat before we started talking. Oops.

I try to at the very least send memes / asks/ headcanon stuff to people who I'm moots with as a sort of gentle ice breaker but even that is kind of tough for me at times.

I also am pretty bad at DMing people first. I've managed it a handful of times in the past but that required me already knowing they were interested (they sent asks, liked for starters, etc). Like in theory I know if we're following each other, people want to interact with me, but in practice I am very bad at remembering it.

Butch deserved it though—and more.

Gabe would be correct in his assumption that Butch is fast asleep, exhausted from a day full of various activities. Usually he’s a very light sleeper, even the smallest of movement or touch would easily wake him but with Gabriel around, he feels… much safer and more comfortable at that. Like he won’t be jumped in the middle of the night by god knows what.

"I told ya we are lookin for exhaust manifold! It kinda looks like brass knuckle just ain't for ya hand but engines!" she invited him to join her on a scavenger hunt in a junkyard in the small town. She was hired to fix an old car and right now she was hunting for spare parts, he was there as an extra pair of ears and hands.
