[All that can be seen at first is a big pink eye, before the Pokemon holding the Gear pulls back and reveals itself to be an Espurr. The camera is pointed at the ceiling, but as the Espurr paws at the screen, an argument is plainly audible off-camera.]

[Or... half of one, at least. Naoya sounds very angry, but the other voice isn't audible.]

I told you, no. I don't think that's a good idea.

[There's a pause as a response comes, and then there's the sound of a fist slamming on a table.]

I said no. You will listen to me. I am the one in charge here. Don't -

[There's a frustrated 'Voir!', and Naoya practically growls.]

It won't end well. You know why. I've explained this to you! I'll look for another solution. There are many Pokemon who can -

[He stops talking, and when he speaks again his voice is quieter and more controlled.]

I'd have to rotate Pokemon to prevent them from getting sick from it. It's not worth it.

[... There's silence, and then Naoya sighs. The Espurr mewls, and a Gardevoir leans down to pick her up. She blinks in surprise at the camera, and reaches out to turn it off.]

[S-siiiigh.]

Not at all, no.

[Cats please.]

Cats are pretty much the same no matter what the universe is. Can I ask what the not-good idea is?

It involves repeated use of Dream Eater. Which in addition to being a damaging move is also probably not a great diet for my Spiritomb to subsist on.

[... Well.]

At least not just dreams.

Sooo you get a Pokémon that already eats dreams anyway instead of using the move.

If you're talking about Munna, that's probably a bad idea. I don't think any Munna would want the sort of dreams I regularly have.

[Ppppause. Considers this. She starts to say something, pauses again, and frowns before continuing.]

I hope you're talking, like, bad dreams and not dumping weird TMI all over the network.

I - no. Not like that. Honestly. That's the last sort of dream I have on a regular basis.

[Things still happen, but. You know. At appropriate intervals. Or levels of feels.]

[How flustered he gets makes her laugh, short and snorting, but the smile thins as the okay, so, nightmares, then bit settles. She cuts the video out in the middle of a sharp breath out through her nose. A text message follows—locked because haha, feelings.]

I didn't even know Munna did that until ages after I caught three of them. I haven't remembered any of my dreams since I got them and they do fine. They're as silly and obnoxious as always so I don't think the dream's contents matter much.

[... Ah. He must have hit a nerve.]

I may have to look into it, then. Mine tend to be... more intense than other nightmares I've heard of.
