[Pearl realized early on what a great opportunity this whole journal biz was. It was bigger than anything else that had come their way - competitions, the Champion of Sinnoh, the oldest living fossil - and he wasn't about to lose it.
He did some research, and here it is. The video begins with Diamond and Pearl sitting beside each other on a bed; Pearl's green scarf is especially prominent today, and Diamond's reaching for some snack box that Pearl's journal is currently leaning against.]
Say, Dia! Did you know today's something special?
[Diamond stops reaching and lays his hand flat on the bed. He can't eat while doing a manzai, or it'll mess the rhythm and Pearl'll get mad... He looks visibly disappointed for a moment, but it clears up before he speaks.]
Really~?
[Pearl nods as he talks, finger raised in a very I-am-telling-you-this-now-listen position.]
Yep! I heard earlier in the week that the seventeenth of this month - that's today! - is for "celebrating" some guy who was afraid of snakes, named Saint Patrick! So I did a little research at the library --
That's amazing, Pearl! [Diamond tilts his head; there's a fond smile on this kid's face.] Did you get Missy to help you?
-- What are you implying!? [Pearl scowls at him (Diamond just smiles wider), then continues on.] I read that in some worlds, people get pinched today! Unless they're wearing green, that is!
[Diamond blinks slowly, then looks from Pearl's green scarf to his own red one. That meant...]
You're safe today, eh Pearl?
[Pearl raises his hands like a Krabby's pincers, laughing.] Yeah, but what about you!
[Diamond gives a mock shriek and shuffles across the bed, raising his hands in self-defense SEND HELP!!]
It seems like I'm the one going to be in a real pinch today!
[Pearl cackles - is he faking it or is it real, nobody knows - and assaults his best bro with pinches, much to the very real displeasure of Diamond. Who then kicks the journal by accident in attempting to get away and off the bed, causing it to fall on the ground. Hope you like floors, Luceti.]
[ooc: Replies will either come from Pearl (this journal!) or Diamond (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
heartofthematter) -- or both! Don't specify, because the chances are you'll end up getting threadjacked anyway.
...Residents of House 11 can come see what the racket's about post-manzai, if you really want to action it up.]
