132... chocobos

[atouchofstrife]

You know, I've talked to a lot of people in this city and a third of them seem to know what a chocobo is and how to take care of one. They talk about how useful they are, and how fast and how to groom one and how to breed them, yet I haven't seen any except the ones in the zoo. Maybe it's me, but that just seems odd that there's none in the wild. None in the forest, none underground, not even a couple in that old farm. And I don't know about other people, but the ones in the zoo really need to get out of the zoo. They look pretty scrawny.

I really miss racing them. A bike's good, but racing a chocobo has it's own appeal.

...Maybe I can get a stable going? That reminds me. Reno, are you up yet?

Gee. Thanks.

[elevatorwarrior]

No problem.

What?

[hearttohart.livejournal.com]

You... want chocobos.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I sort of miss them.

[hearttohart.livejournal.com]

Dare I ask what you are going to do with them, besides put them in a stable?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Well... Maybe race them.

I've heard you mention them, but I have no idea what a chocobo is. However, if you like them, I hope you get them.

Most people claim my hair is a pretty good impression of what a chocobo's crest looks like.

They're large birds, used mainly for riding and carrying supplies by those that can't afford other transportation - which is about everyone. They're also very useful in war, and can actually run over water if bred for it.

[starchilde_lost]

So they're big like ostriches?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Umm... I'm actually shorter than a full grown male Gold. Females are a little larger depending on the breed. I don't know what an ostrich is...

I didn't know there were chocobos here to begin with.

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

There's a couple in the zoo, but we didn't find any in the woods.

[monsternorangel.livejournal.com]

That's strange. Think they were brought here the same way we were?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I don't know. They might have.

[itachi-kunoichi.livejournal.com]

I've never seen a chocobo.

There's one in the zoo?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

Can't miss them, Misao. Their feathers look sort of like my hair.

[itachi-kunoichi.livejournal.com]

Oh. Right.

I wanna see!

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

I'll show you around tomorrow okay? Just not that early.

It must be your dream come true, huh, Konata?

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Well, one of many. Can I pet one?

[cloudsinstrife.livejournal.com]

...Hi?

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Hello! Planning to raise chocobos?
