21 - Video // Action for Goldenrod

[The video features Ironhide and his Onix -- Napalm -- exiting the doors of the Goldenrod Gym. Judging from the angle of the video, the 'gear is being held by the newly dubbed "Green", since it's so close to the ground. From inside the Gym, one can clearly hear the sound of sobbing...]

[Ironhide shoots a glance at Napalm, who, despite not having any shoulders, does a fairly good impression of a shrug. He shakes his head, then steps forward and takes the 'Gear, revealing that it is, in fact, Green filming.]

Never thought a Leader would start to cry when they were defeated...

[He pauses, chewing his lip for a moment.]

... Never thought I would be here this long. A year should not feel so...

[He looks to Napalm, who snorts, and lowers her head. Ironhide heaves himself up, as Green scrambles behind him.]

Cliffjumper. Get your things. Time to roll out.

I dunno. I guess I never really thought about it.

Kind of strange.

[He shrugs though, before looking off into the distance.]

Where to next?

Maybe I'm just nicer than you.

[ He gives Napalm another pat ]

Might as well keep goin' forward. Up next is Ecruteak, I think.

Yeah, sure.

[She nudges him again, with the entire side of her face.]

They say that is where the ghosts live.

Don't tell me you're afraid of ghosts, Ironhide.

... Yours would run from its own shadow. What is there to fear?

They're not all like Specs, you know.

So?

Still nothing to be afraid of. The one Heather has is less than threatening, too.

All right, all right. Just makin' sure.

Then come on. Get a move on.

[And Napalm starts to move away. Better keep up, Cliff.]

Had enough memories of this place.

[ He falls into a light jog alongside them ] You doin' okay?

Fine. Just ready to move.

Why?

Just makin' sure.

... Are you all right?

I'm fine. I dunno... you and the pokémon, we're all partners. I just feel like I gotta check up on you now and then.

Checking up on me, huh? Think I need looking after?

Maybe every once in a while.

Just make sure it never turns into a habit.

Yes sir.

"Sir?"

Before you get your hopes up, that's not turning into a habit either.

But that is such a good habit.

I think I'll stick with callin' you "old man", thanks.

How... thoughtful.
