Someday, perhaps, he would catch the golden magikarp that he'd seen glimmering, tantalisingly close, flickering about the pool in a streak of muted gold. Today would most likely not be that day.

But he'd try anyway.

With the amount of Magikarp he's caught it should come as no surprise that he has a couple Gyarados. Call him the king of fishers, or something.

Disappointment crosses her face only for a moment as she reels in another boring, plain old Magikarp. However, that expression is quickly replaced with relief at the thought that perhaps it was boring and plain, but at least it wasn't a Gyarados.

She casts another line.

Lenora catches a fish. It's an okay fish. It hangs on the hook and flops. That was a lie. It's an ugly fish. Fuck this fish.

She ditched a rod in favor of plunging her hands into the pool of water every so often. Maybe she'd actually catch something good this time.

Isra recalls an aquarium she had seen once upon a time, filled with every variety of magikarp that could be found even some of the rarest ones.

For a moment she counts the fish in the events little pond, because she wonders if it has as many as that aquirium did and if it has the same kinds. Curiosity distracts her from the lines.

His luck the past few days had been absolutely shitty.[break][break]

And he didn’t know why![break][break]

What was it with him and fishing up nothing but duds, duds, and even more duds? There was only one time, out of the several days that he’d come to visit the little pool place so far, where he’d managed to catch something of value. He could only guess as to why things were turning out like that.[break][break]

Sighing, he falls in line again—but this time, he’s ready. A pair of shades rests on the bridge of his nose, and in another hand, there’s a bottle of ramune—he’d managed to skim it from one of the foreign hawkers that were selling their summer wares around the area.[break][break]

Why the hell is there a marble in this thing? He thinks, squinting inside the bottle and trying to see why the fuck that was the case. Either way, he took a few sips and moved along with the line. Eventually, he makes it to the front and grabs a fishing pole.[break][break]

All the better—or worse—to try his luck with, he guesses.[break][break]

Off goes the line into the pool…what’s he going to get?[break][break]

Nobody really knows.[break][break]

he gets another magikarp, though it wasn't as pretty as the magikarp that the other fishers get. while he doesn't usually care about the appearance of any pokemon besides his dogs, the fact that he's quite unlucky compared to others makes him kinda sad.

no other way around it besides testing his luck multiple times until he gets one that he wants. he casts his line once more.

Another fish, another ten minutes wasted. Lenora reels the fat magikarp in, edge of her smile twitching. If only she had someone to suffer with! But no, she must do this alone, like the heroine in a movie where the entire world is against her.

Disappointed with his previous catch, Thomas tries again. He would not stop until he got something satisfying. And even then, this was a good way to get points for the team.

"What the hell all these stupid orange guys- how annoying."

Sam grumbles his complaint before throwing his reel in again, tossing the unimportant magikarp somewhere away from him.

It was like the place never seemed to run out of Magikarp.[break][break]

…well, to be honest he’d already had Basculin sushi, but that was neither here nor there. And that experience was terrible. Now he could only guess what Magikarp sushi tasted like.[break][break]

…seriously, where was this attraction getting all the Arceus-damned Magikarp from? Had they managed to scam some poor idiot salesman out of all the conned Magikarp that they had?[break][break]

Or was this someone’s breeding reject project surplus?[break][break]

Sighing, he was now pawing at another bottle of ramune as he fell in line again, grabbing a net this time and seeing if changing the lures he used to catch one of those damned floppers was going to get him some serious luck going.[break][break]

Well, that was the plan if the line moved forward! He could only sigh as he let out a tiny irritated sigh, seeing that the line was infinitely long as usual.[break][break]

He finally got his chance some twenty minutes later—by this time the bottle of ramune was almost empty, and he had to go back to get some more.[break][break]

Down the net went…[break][break]

All these different colors of Magikarp begs a very interesting question. Do they mean anything and what sets them apart? Not thebpoint values but from a genetic and hereditary standpoint.

Another bite and there's only one way to find out.

the more she comes back the more she wants to make a magikarp and seaking pool back at home in her garden.it seems almost a shame she doesnt have one already with how soothing it feel to be doing this.
