63rd moon [video]

[The bandages wrapped around most of Cecil's body, along with the fact that he's sitting in a hospital bed, are a pretty bad start. That he seems deep in thought only makes it worse.]

Could anyone tell me if the nurses own any Water- or Flying-type Pokémon? Especially ones that can use HMs? Along with how fast they could theoritically go, compared to a Dragonite?

[...Somebody stop him.]

I'd also like to know about alternatives to shoes. Nothing that sticks to the skin, if that's possible.

[Seriously, this cannot possibly end well and he knows it. Somebody stop him.]

I'd appreciate any information you can offer.

Oh, I intend to fly away on either my Dragonite or my Altaria; I doubt I could walk or surf in these conditions. But I'd rather not be chased over the sea by angry nurses if at all possible.

[Headshake] They won't chase you. They stay in the Center no matter how injured you are when you leave, even if you're just going into the city.

[Heck, they barely even bar the way out. It's more a matter of him getting out of bed than getting away.]

Truly? Good. That'll make this much easier, even if nothing can make it easy.

[...Once he finds a way to get out of bed.]

Not even waiting a few days so you're healed enough to walk on your own?

[He could call someone to help him! But that wouldn't be subtle at all. Still, best odds are best odds.]

...According to the nurses, that would be a matter of weeks rather than days.

[That might work better than the 'run off on his Zebstrika's back' plan.]

[Frown. That bad, huh?] Then try and convince them to let you get some air and have a friend waiting to fly you to another city. It'll probably work.

[Considering Zebstrika's can't run across water? Having someone fly him out is the best chance of getting off the island.]

I have more than enough fliers to take care of that part. Besides, Cinnabar is far from everything. I cannot ask others to try and reach it for such a reason.

[He does need to exit the Center first; a Dragonite can't exactly fly out the window. Thus, the Zebstirka.]

Cecil, if they're your friends, do you honestly think they'd mind helping you out?

[...Valid point, but will the Zebstrika fit out the door with him on its back? Odin can't be ridden inside cause Lightning would crack her head on doorframes. Cecil's taller than her, isn't he?]

...They would not. I know. But I've depended too much on everyone's kindness in this world.

[He can use his great flexibility to play limbo! ...And wreck those burns on his back in the process.]

I doubt they'd see it that way. Have you even asked? [Use every advantage you have to put your situation back under your control, Cecil. If they want to help, let them. ...Or something along those lines.

And this is where someone rolling him out would come in handy. It's much easier to keep bandages and wounds intact in a wheelchair than while playing limbo on the back of a thunder horse.]

I think it'll not be necessary. I've somehow found myself in the middle of a plan that involves perverted Ditto decoys.

[He sounds both amused and terribly fond. Oh, Bartz.

However, playing limbo on the back of a thunder horse is more fun. There's a dilemma.]

[Perverted Ditto decoys and that tone? ...Etro and fal'Cie be merciful, Cecil. What are you up to?]

I don't want to know, do I?

[He can play limbo on the back of a thunder horse when his back isn't all burnt and stuff. it'll be more fun when that pain is out of the picture.]

That would greatly depend on how familiar you are with Bartz's Gogo.

[That's a 'you really really don't', for the record.

But he'll have to be able to do it even with the pain, especially if Lightning finds out what he named the horse.]

Not familiar at all, but I'm guessing that's the perverted Ditto you just mentioned.

[Yeah she doesn't want to know. Good grief, man. You can't stay out of trouble, can you?

...he named it after her, didn't he? Yeah he'd better be able to run and hide with those burns.]

I gave him to Bartz for Christmas two years ago. Everyone has been regretting it ever since.

[See, he even causes that trouble in the first place.

...He partially named it after her. He also somehow figured out how to pronounce strikethroughs.]

Let me guess: he can't keep it under control and it's breeding with everything it sees no matter how hard everyone tries to stop it.

[Because she's seen the network posts of those with Dittos and it's rather messy. So, yes. Cecil does cause a lot of trouble. ...But at least he's not making those eggs himself. Because that would be bad.

Same difference, really. But he should share his wisdom and teach everyone to pronounce strikethroughs. It would cause such chaos in Johto and Kanto, it would be actually funny.]

It does not breed with everything. It turns out that a Clefable armed with a frying pan is enough to make him stop.

[Why yes, that is personal experience speaking. Atta girl, Rosie!

...He could ally himself with Hayate and teach everyone how to pronounce red strikethroughs. The fourth wall would cry itself to death.]

But not everyone has one of those, so he still makes enough trouble to be a nuisance. Are you sure using him is the best idea?

[Huh. She should probably teach Lightning the Clefairy to use one of those. Maybe. Couldn't hurt.

Cry itself to death, break into millions of pieces, and finally let them travel between worlds. Oh, if only.]

...I do intend to keep the rest of my team away the whole time.

[Even if he has enough frying pans to arm a whole team.

...Well, now we know what will cause the next fourth wall event.]

And how well do you think that's going to work? You know just as well as I do that there's no stopping them sometimes.

[Maybe he should arm the whole team. Having a clutch of eggs from his entire team would probably be a little...chaotic.

At least that would make sense, too! Bright lights...not so much as red strikethroughs getting pronounced.]

I doubt he can approach them in the PC. Then again, I'd need to keep one with Fly and Surf out just in case...

[It'd be a waste of potential egg moves, too. What a shame.

The fourth wall breaks, Arceus is summoned, everyone finds themselves in Unova...]

Then don't have any more of your team with you than you can keep in sight. It'll be harder for him to do anything if they're constantly being watched.

[Harder being the keyword. Knowing Cecil's luck, it'll happen anyway.

Hey, at least Unova would be unexplored territory. That's something to look forward to.]

...I could get away using only Kayne, but that would almost be cruel to poor Gogo.

[Seriously, even that incident with Lydia the Meganium is not enough to deserve that.

But they'd have to restart their Gym challenge. Again.]

Almost?

[She....doesn't know about the incident with the Meganium. But if it earned that kind of a comment, it can't have been good.

Yes, well, the exploration would be worth it. Besides, maybe with 24 Badges they can find some way back. ...or something. Maybe with all 40? ...who knows.]

He does harass my whole team. But with Kayne's taste for picking at his prey...

[It did earn him said Kayne in an egg trade, though.

...42 with B2 and W2, I think. But that would involve time travel.]
