[The view: the ceiling of the most enpensive restaurant in Celadon. The background noise: dozens of customers enjoying their meals, and Cecil tapping his fingers on a wooden table.]

When I first awoke in New Bark Town, four years ago, I was... unwell. This whole world's very existence confused me, and so did my presence in it. The relatively weak and harmless-looking monsters were also a shock. Had it not been for Rosie's sweetness, I surely would have attempted to fight her. You could say that day was very unpleasant, though still far from the worse I've had.

[The background noise: a liquid hitting glass. The view: a quick flash of a wine bottle in a corner.]

And yet... when I finally managed to use the Pokégear, I was contacted by friends I'd not seen in seventeen years. Friends I'd not remembered in seventeen years, and that I would not have expected to ever see again even if I'd kept those memories. I also met kind people, good people, who made my first few weeks here much easier than they would otherwise have been. All have been gone for years, now, but I still find myself thinking of them fondly. Therefore... you could say that day was a good day, too.

[The action, unseen and barely heard: Cecil making a silent toast to all those people, and downing that glass before setting it back on the table.]

...Well! Now that I've shared my first day experience, it's only fitting that you do the same. Surely you all have interesting stories to share.

Guess so... Well, if it works for them, I guess I can't really say anything...

Yeah. It's weird, but it's nice, most the time.

It'd be great if so many newcomers didn't end up signing up with those Team Rocket assholes...

I guess, but so many of them seem to enjoy it for some reason.

[...well, the loud ones anyway.]

I've never met any that were decent people at all, myself.

[...the irony is two of the people who are gone now but he came to like best were Rockets and he never knew...]

[...oh gosh that was Hughes wasn't it, he's one of the two aforementioned people]

Huh. Well, you do find decent people in the weirdest places sometimes... Maybe he was forced.

That'd be nice. I've just seen too much corruption...

They suck either way.
