PKMN Skies: Cave Story, Bro

This is an Item Gathering submission for mining the caves of the Floating Island...Probably a little weird to submit such a civilian scenario when Deoxys is on the loose (especially since Asuka and Gawain are actively hunting the alien)...I'm imagining this takes place after everything gets settled and things return to normal.

I imagine normal most people will be visiting the caves just to mine for materials, but Asuka and Gawain read news bulletin a little differently (well, Gawain read it and Asuka listened).  This isn't a mining cave infested with Pokemon battles, this is a cave of battling Pokemon that you can mine.

Since the idea for this comic is to highlight Asuka and Gawain's worldview clashing with a regular person's, I thought that there was no better guest-star than Dixie, a friend of Asuka and Gawain.  She's a very laid-back person and hates battling so, if ever there was a person who could be weirded out by Asuka's enthusiasm, it's her, heh heh...I just hope Asuka didn't weird her out too much...

I used a picture as the panels borders/background/whatever you want to call it.  I thought regular white borders would look too blank and boring in some of the more spacious areas and I was too lazy to draw my own stone texture...Please don't hate me.

Director's Commentary

- Dixie is created and owned by DarkraixCresselia.  I hope you don't mind that I borrowed her.
- The title is a combination of Cave Story (a game I've never played) and the phrase, "Cool story, bro" (a phrase I've never said).
