I get it. I'm kinda shy too. I'm good with shy. Hey Kodak. Hiii.

Thank you Khepri. They're still discussing things with Silph, but even if they negotiate a way for Ford to return, they ensure I will be retained on the League in a public capacity... so I guess I'm permanent.

Thank you for letting me serve this region that raised me, that is all I've wanted for the past 10 years and earlier.

to visit them and assist in their state mandated rehabilitation in any way that I can. I realize that people have strong feelings about the events that transpired a decade ago, I do too. I want it to be known that I am dedicated to the prosperity and safety of Hoenn, despite the sins of the father.

I had no affiliation with either Magma or Aqua, and I condemn the actions taken by both groups. However, they are still people who raised me, and I am a person who believes in self growth and redemption. I am still in contact with both of them, as well as some of their 'Admins' and will continue--

Rocket isn't a thing here.

I would say, but that's, exactly the issue. I have a feeling it might change soon, based on what Roxanne told me.

Mm. Its a bit more complicated than that. The League has expressly told me not to just do what I want.

Type specialists are old school now. Bad Dog sounds like a great Leader Theme, which is our new PR word.

I think I just need to learn to care less, from what it looks like. I'm too nervous.

That's one way of putting it.

I'm still trying to find my balance, truth be told. The social dynamics of Hoenn Celebrity are a bit of a minefield.

Mm. I used to play the oboe. I hated my tutor.

Ford had... extenuating circumstances.

I don't really kiss people. Especially not out of traditions. Tate asked. Politely.

I think I'll stay a Caterpie at least for 2 more years. But I wish you luck on your journey.

You seemed to fit in well enough amongst it, too. Maybe I'll be where you are by next year's party.

I'm sorry if I'm making assumptions. You two were romantically physical.

We met briefly. You did Ford's photoshoot. I thought you had left the region. I didn't know you played an instrument. You have good rhythm, judging by how you bare knuckle, so it makes sense.

Its a very rambunctious league... and everyone is also so... amorous. But they're amusing. And mostly kind.

I did need 48 hours of isolation afterwards though.

Mm. I dont like ripe bell peppers, they're too weirdly sweet, only the green ones. I eat and enjoy meat and fish, but I need palate cleanser after. I don't really understand desserts. I like sweets, but following deep savory flavor with another intense flavor like cream or chocolate is bizarre.

I dont mind watching drunk people, I just dont want to be to close to them. I have a feeling people won't let me just wallflower.

I like earthy flavors. Vegetal, grassy, slightly bitter... they taste fresh.
