[Chihiro had been keeping rather quiet on the Network since Prom for reasons, but recent murderschool students suddenly turning comatose had left him unsure and antsy. Not really wanting to talk to anyone particular, per-say, but just wanting to talk in general. Particularly light topics that might help alleviate the anxiety.

Maybe. Probably.]

A lot of people here have Eevees, don't they? I wanted to ask and see what everyone's opinions are on the different forms they can potentially evolve into. It doesn't matter if yours has already evolved, or if you don't have one...

...

I also would like to apologize to anyone who may have received text messages in all caps from my Gear during the time I've been here. My Porygon likes to talk to people, particularly new arrivals, it looks like.... I've given him a project to work on so he shouldn't be bothering anyone else for a while.

As long as it's something you love to do, I don't see any reason why you need to find something else!

I've observed that as well. In my case, the Pokemon I've caught in the wild have been a bit more... unpredictable than the ones I've hatched. Which makes sense, of course; it's just my Vaporeon that's a bit of an anomaly.

[codeforhope]

Ah....well....Fujisaki is my first name, actually. I've just been using the Western order here, to avoid confusion...

...and Chihiro seems easier for people to remember, but you may call me whichever you'd like.

[codeforhope]

Ah...thank you. It just seems like variety might be nice, you know?

[codeforhope]

My Porygon is....certainly more adventurous than I am, so I understand what you mean.

Oh....my name is Fujisaki Chihiro, by the way. I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself before.

[artificialrose]

That is true... What other sort of things do you like, then?

[dressofheaven]

Yes, I am. He's been very busy talking about it to people, so I'm not all that surprised he's already spoken to you. Are you planning to come?

[codeforhope]

....mm. Well. I like reading books on occassion, but they can be hard to concentrate on sometimes unless I'm reading for a purpose...like research or something.

[There's a lengthy pause before that text is actually sent, due to Chihiro putting in text and erasing it several times over. ...Perhaps mentioning to Garry that he would like to start working out someday is a thing he should keep to himself, for now.]

[codeforhope]

I would like to, if I can get one of my classmates to come with me.

[artificialrose]

[He doesn't pay much attention to the gap. Sometimes that sort of thing happens- maybe something came up. The good thing about text messages is that you can take your time with them, if you ask him.]

I see. It sounds like you can be a very serious person sometimes then!

Let's see... As for myself, I suppose I also like hiking and things like that. I used to run and things like that back home. I suppose it's come in handy.

[Both for 'running for your life' purposes and for 'let's do the pokemon thing' purposes, really.]

[enjoymyatelier]

How did you obtain him, by any chance? I've always been a bit clueless about those sorts of things myself.

Don't feel the need to apologize --- that's how things just tend to go in this place, I've noticed. Anyway, it's a pleasure making your acquaintance, Fujisaki. I am Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi.

[copycat]

Oh I get it.

Sorry, I'm just used to used to writing out names that way heh. My Japanese needs more practice too.

[beholdmydemons]

I don't have one but they all seem cool. I want the fire one.

Is Porygon that computer spirit Pokemon that goes into the Pokegear? Atsuro has one, they're interesting.

[dressofheaven]

A particular one, or are you just not wanting to go alone?

[voidedrogue]

yeah!!

tho admittedly i dont even have one eevee yet so i cant speak from experience
but in the games i always liked eevees
theyre suuuuper cute & their evolves are cool

[codeforhope]

[Chihiro can no doubt relate to the 'running for your life' part, unfortunately.]

Somewhat, yes. And that sounds like fun. I feel like I would like to do things like that too, if I had gotten the opportunity.

Ah. ..My friend, Nanami-san, won him for me at the Game Corner at Celadon as a late birthday present a few days after I showed up here. From what I can remember, Porygon, Abra, and Dratini are all offered as prizes for the games there if you can win enough coins.

It is nice to meet you.

[codeforhope]

It's ok. Please don't worry about it. I understand that a lot of people here seem to come from many different places...

many places I've never heard of.

[font]

[codeforhope]

You do? I really like Flareon too, to be honest.

[Even though apparently they're not exactly popular, so Chihiro is mildly surprised.]

That's right. Zip stays in my Gear all the time. He likes to talk to people on the Network...

[artificialrose]

Maybe we can go hiking around Goldenrod when you come back! It could be fun.

[codeforhope]

I...would rather not go alone. I don't particularly mind who comes with me...I would like for all of them to come if they could. They might enjoy it.

[codeforhope]

Hmm...I will have to see what happens once I start breeding. If things work out, I could maybe try to get all of the evolutions.

[codeforhope]

Oh, you mean it?

Though, Goldenrod is big enough to do plenty of walking around in, at least.

[artificialrose]

Of course! A hike is always made better with good company. ❤

Yes, it certainly is. We can always go hiking outside of the city, however, if you'd like something more scenic. There's also the ocean nearby that's positively beautiful when the sun is setting!

[codeforhope]

Even though I've been staying in Goldenrod, I actually haven't had much of a chance to explore outside of the city...so I think that would be nice.
