this is "not actually mad just enjoying the delivery of righteous but pointless anger" again so excuse me but i'm annoyed again with the ppl who were like "oh ingo's bad with titles." like you are doing such a disservice to him just bc that was the only time you noticed anyone not using titles for the ride pokemon... don't blame him for canon's insane choice to make them Not Count as nobles. he is so overly formal even in cases that do not call for it at all. he called fucking volo sir and that was with his "i do not want to continue this conversation please leave" subtext cranked all the way up. you just KNOW he would not be calling sneasler anything other than variations on "lady" if that was what she was actually called
