Good day, one and all! To all of you people listening in out there, I'd like to let you know that the SOS Brigade is holding a raffle. Today! All three of me will be handing out tickets at the SOS Brigade clubhouse, but we'll all be spreading out around the plaza too so keep an eye out for all of me!

[That's right, all three of her. Sorry, but there are no bonus prizes for anyone that ends up running into three 'Duplicas' today. Speaking of which, a raffle isn't much fun if you don't know what you're going in with a chance of winning, right?]

You might just end up winning one of these great prizes that the Brigade has lined up, so make sure you listen closely.

[Cue Duplica reading off the following list of prizes:
1. Free Brigade consultation
2. Free Favor from the Brigade
3. Ride on a Dragon
4. Spend a day with a celebrity of your choice
5. Signed Idol Photograph
6. A Slot Machine
7. A bento created by the chief of the Brigade
8. Photos on a Brigade member in a nurse outfit
9. Mp3 or CD of an acoustic version of God Knows
10. Mp3 or CD of a cover of Eye of the Tiger
Her enthusiasm seems to pick up when she reads out number four, that's definitely a good prize to get.]

So now you know what's going on all you have left to do is find me. We'll try and be around until noon today. We'll be drawing winners this afternoon so don't put it off until the last minute. All of me are looking forward to seeing all of you!

[After she's finished speaking, Duplica heads to the SOS clubhouse and stands outside with a bunch of tickets in her hands. There's also another Duplica wandering around the plaza with her own tickets and yet another, shorter Duplica doing the same thing. If you happen to talk to any of the Duplicas in the plaza then you'll only end up getting a friendly smile. The real deal and the clubhouse will be more than happy to talk and might even come over if any of her other 'Duplicas' are running into trouble.]

[He chuckles, his ears perking up for a moment, before moving back into a more leisurely position.]

Sorry about that! Don't worry about me, I'm resilient. [He claps a fist against his chest, as if to prove a point.]

I'm sure you are, not everyone can jump off of a roof like that after all.

[She'll really have to get to addressing why Oswald was up on the roof in first place at some point, but first things first.]

Did you come by to join in with the raffle?

Sure am! There's no rules saying Brigade members can't participate, so I'm hoping my luck will score me somethin' nice.

[Some may consider using cartoon luck to win a raffle to be cheating. Oswald would deny all accusations of that. After all, his luck seems to be affected by the power cap as well. It's working, but at the same time, it's not.]

In that case I hope you end up winning something you want!

[Really if she had any idea that Oswald was known as 'the Lucky Rabbit' then she would probably question him taking part. Ah well, she takes her ream of tickets and fans them out so Oswald can pick whichever one takes his fancy.]

Is there anything on that list you're hoping you'll get?

Nah, not really. The slot machine would look great in my apartment, but most of the prizes sound pretty good.

[Oswald takes an exceptionally long time examining the cards, even going as far as to reach out to take one, only to retract his paw at the last moment with a shake of his head. Finally, he takes one near the end.] This one should be good!

Ahah, right, most of them. [Number 8.] I really like the fourth one, but it isn't something I'd enjoy winning myself.

[Come to think of it maybe she can take a ticket for herself. Or would it be cheap if the person promoting the raffle also takes part? Hm.] If you can really tell which tickets are good ones just by looking through them then I'll have to say I'm impressed.

[What, Duplica doesn't want to spend a day with a celebrity? Well, that's all right, Oswald's not too keen on winning that one either. He is the local celebrity, after all.]

Naw, it's more like a... A sixth sense. I can't be sure this one's a winner, but there's only one way to find out, right?

I see. Still, having a sense for things like this is more than what most people have. Good luck all the same for when the winners are drawn, Oswald!

[Now, with the raffle dealt with.] So are you going to tell me what you were doing up there?

Not much. Just lookin' up at the sky.

[He glances upwards again. There isn't that much to see today. It's mostly a lot of clouds. He's just so used to skygazing in Wasteland that the habit is hard to shake.]

[Duplica joins in with the skygazing and looks at the cloudy sky for a moment.]

I can't say I really keep my eye on the sky much. It must be pretty nice, when the sun is out anyway.

It's nice when the stars are out, too. You can see them all clearly from down here! Lots of constellations, but I ain't got a clue what they're supposed to be.

Well I don't know much about reading constellations or working out what they're supposed to mean, but I know there are are Pokemon out there that look like stars or even rumoured to come from space themselves.

[Sorry, she's not too interested in stars, except for maybe becoming one someday.]

Pokemon that look like stars? [He frowns and tilts his head lightly. He knows what Pokemon are, vaguely, but how could they look like stars?]

Yes! I know Staryu definitely looks like a star, or it's star-shaped at least.

[Not that real stars are shaped like that. If she was aiming for accuracy then maybe mentioning Gastly would have been a better choice.]

[Luckily, Oswald's clever enough to know the difference between real stars and star-shaped things. But... star-shaped little monsters... That's so odd. He's picturing a starfish with a face, now]

Really? Huh... Sounds like an interesting Pokemon, that's for sure.

It's certainly an interesting one, but if you really want a Pokemon that's interesting then nothing can beat my Dittos.

[Since, come on, they can transform. There's no other Pokemon around that can do that ~~except Mew.~~]

'Cause Dittos can change shapes, right? [See, he pays attention in Brigade meetings from time to time.]

Right! [Pay attention all the time in future though-] In fact, I think my Dittos would be able to transform into you Oswald. They can take the shape of all sorts of things, but I've never even thought about asking them to transform into a cartoon before.

[She pays attention too! Though come to think of it, if she asked her Ditto to transform into a cartoon she showed it then it might just turn into a comic book or something. Hmm.]

Ya really think they could? [Oswald's already picturing it. Two- no three of him. Three times the Lucky Rabbit, three times the fans!]

We could put on a show with 'm!
