[So Naoya just wanted a walk. Just a peaceful walk, nothing to get worked up over.]

[Yeah. Not today. The Pokegear's video clicks on, and shows Naoya currently in a fight with... a Mareep, apparently. There's a small box that seemed to have contained something previously, and by what Naoya is shouting it seems like the Mareep ate it.]

... no respect for the property of others, you horrible animal. I've never liked you!

[A Psychic-type voice floats through the Pokegear, sounding very tired and a little afraid.]

He's been like this all day, and then this Mareep set him off... can someone please come and help us? I can't drag my Trainer back into the city by myself...

[The video clicks off.]

[Dipper is probably nowhere near you, but that doesn't make him less irritated.]

Hey! Don't be mean to the sheep!

Dammit Alice, why did you record this -

That sheep ate my dango. Which I made for myself. Greedy little -

[He's cut off by a stick flying at his head, which he ducks.]

Alice!

Maybe if you fed it more often, it wouldn't eat your dangos.

[What's a dano?]

It's not even mine, it's a wild one. I don't want to keep it.

Why not? Mareep are useful! I've got one! And they aren't that bad if you fed them regularly!

I hate sheep. I find them detestable.

Sheep have wool! That's useful, and it makes them fluffy! How can you hate them?

It's a very long story. If it weren't for them, I would not be in the situation I am in.

You should still be nicer to it. It could electrocute you to death if you're not careful.

I'd kill it first.

[Or get his Pokemon to fight it, whatever.]

[....................

THIS KID IS GIVING YOU THE MOST HORRIFIED LOOK

HOW COULD YOU EVEN SUGGEST KILLING ONE OF THESE CREATURES]

... What?

DON'T KILL IT!

[Welp]

I mean... please don't kill it?

... I doubt I could here, anyway.

Then why would you suggest it?!

I don't know. I could probably find a way, given enough time. ... I don't really want to kill it, but it's still a vile creature.

Just give it some food and it'll leave you alone.

It took my food.

Animals do that! They don't know any better!

It was very clearly mine, and it shouldn't have taken it!

Animals don't care! If they're hungry, they're hungry!

Pokemon on the whole tend to be more intelligent than most animals.

Still don't need to treat them badly. They can kick your butt in this place.

It's not as if I don't have Pokemon of my own.

You should still be nicer to the wild one's unless you plan on catching them!

I will never catch one of that line.

Then give it another dangmo and chase it off!

... Dango, not dangmo.

Just give it one and it'll go away! Throw it if you have to!

It already took all of mine.

Then give it something else! That's obvious!

I only came out here to eat my snack, I don't have anything else.

Don't you have any Poképuffs?

Not really. I just wanted to have a snack.

[He wasn't planning on having this kind of encounter.]

Dude! You need to be prepared at all times for things like this! Else you'll get stuck in spots just like this!

... It's not as if I don't live and work in the city right behind me, no. Clearly not.

That's just an excuse!

Not really.

You should always be prepared no matter where you are.

That's what adaptability is for.

[ADULTS]

You know what? I hope that Mareep zaps you!

[And he's off. Bye bye]

Whoa, bro, what did Bo Peep ever do to you?

[He grits his teeth, and slaps a private filter on this right away because with how this day has been going...]

'And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering, but unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.'

...Ohhhhhh. Well, shit.

Look, dude, if it's bothering you, you can stuff it in a Pokéball and send it to me to get it out of your hair, I don't mind. I can reimburse you the cash for the ball.

No, I just wanted it to stop trying to eat my dango. I worked very hard on that dango.

[It's not like he can't get more but it's the principle of the thing!]

D...ango?

[Please educate this poor American soul.]

... Do you know what mochi is?

Is it a Pokémon?

No. It's like... imagine if rice was made into a dough, and it's somewhat sticky. That's mochi. Technically dango is made from mochiko, but they're very closely related. It's then rolled into balls and flavored with various things, and generally served on a skewer.

Oh.

[His face scrunches up as he tries to imagine the taste and texture.]

That sounds...good? I think. I'm not really sure, that was not a staple in my urban Texan upbringing. It sounds like something that probably wouldn't microwave real well.

Not generally, no. But if you come by Honeyed Soul in Goldenrod, you can have some.

Yeah, maybe. I'm still pretty far back, none of us were too keen on leaving Violet for an extended trek through the snow and ice and crap.

Really? I suppose that makes sense. I can send a delivery over, though.

...Actually, can I buy some kind of grab bag? I'm with a couple girls, I bet they'll like snacks. Anyway, that's why we haven't traveled.

[He shrugs.]

I'm from Texas, Jade's from a deserted island somewhere in the tropical Pacific, and Penny. Penny didn't get out much. So we're not really equipped for winterquest.

That's understandable. ... I'll send you some blankets, too.

[Just gonna... make a mental note of it. They'll be warm and fuzzy at least.]

[Dave blinks with the blank surprise of a kid who isn't used to unprompted acts of generosity.]

--Oh, dude, you don't have to. I mean, we've been okay so far.

They're useful even without the cold. Don't worry about it. Are they all about your size? I wouldn't want to send anything too short if one of them happens to be abnormally tall.

I'm the tallest. I'm, I dunno, five nine, five ten? Still growing, so I don't know if that's accurate.

I'll make sure there's enough room. ... And seriously, don't worry about the cost. I handle the accounting a lot of the time, I know how much my salary allows me.

[Not that he ever skims the books, but he could. Probably.]

Okay. If you're sure, bro. 'Cause, seriously, I've got a part-time washing dishes, I'm not destitute, I can keep us in the lifestyle to which we are accustomed. Mostly.

Nah, it's fine. I don't really buy much anyway.

Okay. Well. Thanks, dude.

Not a problem.

...Holy shit, kid. Calm down.

[Excuse you he is not a kid.]

They are vile creatures.

It's just a sheep. What's your problem?

[Ugh okay. He flips on the filter.]

Abel was a shepherd.

Okay, so you got some issues with them. I can respect that.

[says cu 'FUCK MURKROW' chulainn]

Just chase it off, don't lecture the poor dumb thing.

It ate my dango.

...Pretty sure you can get more of that somewhere or other.

I know, but I made it.

[Stupid sheep, ruining all the good shit.]

Just give the cottonball a break, okay?

[He grumbles a bit, ignoring Alice glaring at him.]

It's stupid.

Everything here's stupid. You ain't used to it yet?

I am, but it's still extremely annoying.

Are you going to keep this up all day?

Alice, not now...

...hm? Havin' a rough day, kid?

[Alice the Gardevoir pokes her head into the shot.]

He's been very loud and irritable all day.

[well hey there alice, you get a nice little wave]

No kiddin'? [you're busted, naoya.] So what's really got you all annoyed and shit if it ain't the sheep?

I don't know. There's just something about today that's put me in a bad mood.

The date itself, or just in general?

In general.

Sounds rough. [...only the utmost of sympathy here apparently.] You gonna be okay?

Heh. I'll be fine. It's not a big deal.

It is when you're being this aggravated.

Alice...

Don't make me put you to sleep again.
