14th Grail: [Video]

[dressofheaven]

I don't tend to make a big deal out of this sort of thing, ordinarily. But under the circumstances it seems appropriate.

[Ilya holds up Claire's Rising Badge to the camera, then shows off the other seven badges pinned to her collar. She adds the last one and makes no effort to restrain her victorious smirk.]

That's the eight badges of Johto collected. I hope the elite battles over in Kanto give a bit more of a challenge. I don't suppose anyone can give me an idea of what to expect from them. I'd like to hear any stories you might have.

Oh, but I'm feeling nostalgic. Even if you haven't fought the elite matches yet, even if you only have one or two badges, why don't you tell me about them? It seems like as good a way as any to celebrate, at least until I get my little gathering underway.

Also, Claire, if you're listening. Gyarados still isn't a dragon type.

Celadon, Cerulean... Olivine if I were back in Johto. Saffron's nice too. I kind of like Kanto better than Johto in general, really.

I really haven't visited Kanto all that much yet myself, to tell you the truth. I hope I can go soon though! 'Specially since I've heard lots of good things about it.

If you have the money, you should pick up a train ticket while you're in Goldenrod. A quick train ride over to Saffron well show you what I'm talking about, and you can be there and back in a day if you really want to.

Oh woah, really? I'll have to do that! I should have plenty of money for it by now, too.

[dressofheaven]

I would hope so, given what Joker pays us!

[She's still not sure how he manages to bring in enough money that he can be so generous with them.]
