My my… What an odd little individual we have here… You remind me of someone, however, there is something about that soul of yours… How curious. Tell me, which regions have you studied the myths of thus far? ☺️

I—... I'm sorry, my soul? Do forgive me, but you must surely be mistaken! I'm just an ordinary, nameless nobody who's off doing his own thing, promise!

ㅤ As for the other question, I... suppose it depends on what I'm researching at the time, haha! Some myths have a tendency to overlap with ones from other regions, so who knows exactly how many I've studied!

[ginkgowish]

well what are your nightmares ABOUT then

What they're about...?

ㅤ

Oh! Ahaha, you must surely be mistaken. I promise the nightmares I have aren't particularly odd or novel at all! My nightmares are the same as everyone else's, that I assure you!

[ginkgowish]

...I'm surprised to see how much you've mellowed out. You've changed while I was gone, haven't you?

ㅤ

Truth be told, I don't actually celebrate Halloween. Even without that factor in mind however, I'd say it was a good day regardless!

Do you ever get nightmares sometimes?

Well... doesn't everyone, really? I'd be lying if I said I was above things such as that. I'm only human, after all!

[ginkgowish]

Well, there was this one time I asked you a teensy tiny little question regarding Gym Leader Candice, but—...

ㅤ

...On second thought, you know what? Why don't we both talk about something else instead, haha!

[ginkgowish]

Mmhmm. Sure you are.

[ginkgowish]

Well, well, well! Seems as though it's Halloween today! Truth be told, I forgot about the fact until now, so you'll have to accept my sincerest apologies for the late acknowledgement!

ㅤ

Unfortunately, I would say I'm far too old to be participating in the festivities today. However, in spirit of the celebration, I can do what I do best!

And that is, of course, dispensing fun facts about history and folklore like candy! Let me think...

ㅤ

Hmm... Oh, I know!

Right. It's actually quite funny, now that I think about it!

So, if you've ever dabbled in researching the history of Hisui, you're bound to have heard of this one specific little organization... Of course, I'm talking about the Galaxy Expedition Team!

It's known for many things, after all. Being responsible in part for the harmony between man and Pokemon in present times, being the source of what may be the first ever Pokedex, being where the hero of Hisui—of all people—is found...

. . .

...Either way, I'm sure you know what I'm referring to!

ㅤ

What you may not know however, is the existence of a lesser-known record regarding the Galaxy Team's Survey Corps's leader.

Apparently, the record speaks about an incident in which a Pokemon—said to be a Wurmple in the text—wandered into her office... It doesn't elaborate upon what she did next, but I thought it amusing the idea this event was of enough importance to be worth noting down.

I wondered what she did next? Requested her subordinates remove it from the premises, perhaps? But then again, it's a known fact she had an Abra, so it's possible she simply just commanded it to use its psionic powers to remove the Wurmple from the premises?

ㅤ

Haha. I suppose I don't entirely fault her; it's not like the people's view of Pokemon then was entirely positive!

Still, if I was in her position, I would've simply just waved hi to the Wurmple and got up to remove it from my office myself. Or maybe I might've just let it be! A part of me does find Wurmple quite endearing, after all...

ㅤ

Nevertheless, now you know! I hope you find the fact as entertaining as I did. I know I've been waiting to share it for a long time now!

And with that said, happy Halloween! Hope all of you have fun today!

[ginkgowish]

Ahh, I'm sure it's all a matter of perspective. I know you just love to disagree with me either way!

Warms my heart to know I'm still on your mind after all this time, though. I'm sure no matter what you say out loud, there's surely a part of you in there who cares for me!

Indeed, indeed... How impolite of me to forget! A happy Halloween to you as well!

It has been quite some time, hello V.

@alamos-garden-lover

Oh? Of all people to be the one to greet me after my return—why, I never predicted it would one day be you! Did you really miss what I had to say that much?

Of course, not that I'm complaining. The sooner we can put aside our petty squabbles, the better!

So with all that said, I'd like to extend my sincere, warmest welcomes and thank you. Hello, Darkrai!

ooc: if anyone wants to interact do absolutely feel free to do so by the way. it's a lot quieter than i remember it being

[ginkgowish]

Ugh, I seem to have come down with a migraine yet again. What a nightmare...

How long until I reach a breakthrough with my research? It's been months upon months on end by now...

[ginkgowish]

ok. which one would best taste grilled

Oh okay yeah this one's quite alright. I think you could use Celebi as garnish for a grilled cheese sandwich.

ㅤ

Sorry, who said that?

[ginkgowish]

gun to your head what legendary pokemon do you think would best taste in a barbecue

That's. Uh.

Um.

Hm.

ㅤㅤ

Ahem. Apologies, but is it imperative I answer this inquiry? It may be a... sensitive topic for some, after all. I'm certain there must be other worthwhile questions worth asking me, surely!

For starters, you can begin with asking me about my day, about the weather, or what I had for lunch...

[ginkgowish]

What's your favorite place to grab a meal

I suppose it depends where I just so happen to be at the time. I try not to be a picky eater after all, so I can eat just about anything, really!

That being said—back when I used to work at a Pokemart (which I try not to think about very often, heavens above...), I would usually grab a bite to eat from a food stall on the other side of the street during my lunch breaks.

Good food! I don't think the vendor's around that area anymore, though...

[ginkgowish]

ooc: nice to see you both as well! it's been a while, huh?

ooc: people still do this pokemonirl thing right. i didn't return too late right. right guys. hello

[ginkgowish]

wdym by other things you think about

It's... hm.

Sometimes I just have to remind myself of things no one else will for me.

You must surely understand what I mean, right? When you're a historian like me, you have to make sure to jog your memory often and keep things up-to-date for yourself, after all!

[ginkgowish]

do you have any advice for getting enough sleep each night?

Hm, sleeping advice? That's an odd thing to ask a stranger on the internet all of a sudden, isn't it? Don't tell me the reason you have trouble sleeping is because I'm always on your mind?

ㅤ

I kid, I kid. As a man who is also prone to bouts of insomnia at times, it'd just be so terribly mean for me to continue poking fun at you for this!

I suppose it's different depending on the person. In my case however, I usually tend to have to remind myself that I have all the time in the world to myself for the foreseeable future, so it's fine if I haven't done everything I wanted to today yet.

But then that gets me thinking about other things, and by the time I realize it... The sun will have rose over the horizon, and there's only three or so hours I have left to sleep for unless I decide to sleep in that day.

ㅤ

...On second thought, maybe I'm not the best person to ask for advice regarding this after all! My apologies, haha!
