[Video Post 06]

[dangerousidol]

[A video pops up, and once more Rise is dressed to match the Sylveon beside her. The background is Saffron City. Seems it's commercial take two. With no interruptions this time (hopefully).]

Hi everyone~! Risette here with some great news~!

[She spins in a circle and does a cute pose. Himiko mimics her the best she can, which turns out just as cute.]

Honeyed Soul has a brand new expanded menu! There's a ton of new items added to the already amazing selection of yummy treats just in time for summer~ There's even things for your Pokémon to enjoy! So head over to Goldenrod City and check it out!

[She blows a kiss at the screen, Himiko doing the same.]

We'll be seeing you~!

[The video shuts off at this point. Have fun messaging her with your thoughts on this, or anything else. If you're in the area, feel free to approach her.]

T-Thanks. I'm seventeen now. It feels weird to say that.

[video]

[codeforhope]

I know what you mean. It always feels strange when you get older...even though most of the time, you don't really feel any different.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

I'm just amazed that I'll be an adult in a few years... unless this place thinks we're adults at eighteen.

[video]

[codeforhope]

I don't know, really...it seems like anyone of any age is encouraged to be a trainer. It's just mostly younger people. ...or, I suppose it was before we got here.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

Who do you think is the oldest person here?

[video]

[codeforhope]

Mm...that's a good question, actually. If I had to guess, whoever it is must be in their thirties or something at least...wouldn't you think?

[He doesn't know for sure how old most of his friends are, but none of them seem particularly old, really.]

[video]

[dangerousidol]

But..... what if there's someone in their hundreds?

[She says this really low, like it's a secret no one can know about.]

[video]

[codeforhope]

I...I suppose it's possible. I feel like we would know about them if there was, though...

[video]

[dangerousidol]

I wouldn't want people to know I was that old!

[video]

[codeforhope]

You think maybe they just aren't around very much, then?

[video]

[dangerousidol]

Or they just don't want anyone to know. Let people think of them as some other age.

[video]

[codeforhope]

Wouldn't their appearance give them away? Unless they just made it a point to stay off the Network, anyway...

[video]

[dangerousidol]

... what if they stopped physically aging?

[video]

[codeforhope]

[...now Chihiro really has to think, and it shows in the way his expression changes.]

Do you think that sort of thing would work here, though? Since people usually lose their powers, I mean.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

W-Well, they could start aging normally. Like the est of us. So... if they were 21, they would just go from there.... m-maybe.

[video]

[codeforhope]

That makes sense. They would have to have been here for a very long time to make it all the way to 100...

[video]

[dangerousidol]

I'm too afraid to ask on the network... what if someone is joking with us? We'd have no way of knowing!

[video]

[codeforhope]

We may never know, really. Especially if someone would prefer to stay private about that sort of thing...it is rather personal, after all.

But it is interesting to think about!

[video]

[dangerousidol]

It is... I think I'll be curious for a long time about this.

[video]

[codeforhope]

Who knows...maybe someone older out there will see this and decide to talk to you about it.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

..... Now I wonder how old Botan-san is...

[video]

[codeforhope]

Botan-san? I'm...not sure...I don't think I've ever asked her.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

Do you think it'd be rude to ask her? I mean, boys shouldn't ask a woman's age, but it should be okay between girls, right?

[video]

[codeforhope]

Probably not. I mean...if she doesn't want to talk about it, then that's fine too.

[video]

[dangerousidol]

Oh yeah, I'm still supposed to go karaoke with her....
