77th moon [video]

[You know what's a great sight in the morning? Grimers. Over a dozen Grimers, all emerging from a pond, caught on camera from the safety of Cecil's kitchen. They don't look very happy.]

I think they're mounting an attack on the house. Send help.

[Preferably before the smell sticks to his clothes permanently.]

I still wonder how a clean city like Celadon could have a Grimer swarm, but then again I don't even need to question that, do I.

[...yeah.]

[paladinlost]

Could it be that the city is so clean in the first place because the Grimers absorb all of its pollution?

video;

[impulsives]

...That could be a plausible theory, actually.

[which would explain a lot of things.]

video;

[paladinlost]

That would explain why the locals accept their presence so easily.

[Along with their ability to drive burglars out.]

video;

[impulsives]

...true, but aren't the locals generally clueless about these things anyways?

[just saying.]

video;

[paladinlost]

Even they must be aware of the smell and health risk.

video;

[impulsives]

...have you ever noticed that they're not the brightest of the bunch too?

[because the amount of things he had to deal with was impressive to a point back when he was working in the Center.]

[paladinlost]

...I think it's more that they take some of the strangest aspects of their world for granted.

video;

[impulsives]

...You got a point there.

[to them, it's just normal after all.]

video;

[paladinlost]

And unluckily, those happen to be the aspects that resemble our own worlds the less.

[Such as the lack of money from monsters.]

[impulsives]

Well, at least you had an easier time adapting to them than I did.

[he had been punched a few times by his old Electabuzz after all.]

[paladinlost]

I had many old friends here when I arrived. It helped.

[Until they all disappeared.]

video;

[impulsives]

Funny, that used to be the case for me too.

[keyword: used.]

video;

[paladinlost]

...Perhaps someday we'll be the old friends already present here.

[Again.]

video;

[impulsives]

I'd rather we go back before we have that happens to us.

video;

[paladinlost]

That'd be nice, but we know better than to expect it.

video;

[impulsives]

Well, if you stop hoping, then that would never happen to be honest.

[that's why he's still holding on, no matter how slim the chance actually is.]

video;

[paladinlost]

I do still hope. I merely don't expect it to happen as quickly as I want.

[Because it hasn't yet.]

video;

[impulsives]

Well, everybody got their own way of dealing with it so I'm not that surprised.

video;

[paladinlost]

Some people even hope this'll never end.

video;

[impulsives]

Considering this place is either an after life or a meeting grounds of the living and the dead, that's not really surprising too.

[he knew this very well, considering he still treasure the time he had with Stellar again, no matter how short it was.]

video;

[paladinlost]

It's most definitely not an afterlife.

[He's alive. Rosa was alive. Kain was alive.]

But a meeting grounds... that's a nice way to describe this world.

video;

[impulsives]

Yeah, it is.

[There's a wistful smile on his face; even if it was a short time, he was still glad he got the chance to meet with someone he will never see again back home.]

video;

[paladinlost]

We're quite lucky it allows such long meetings, too.

[Two years and counting, in certain cases.]

video;

[impulsives]

Yeah, at least there's that, isn't it.

[better than just staying here without anyone he knows, to be honest.]
