Here's a question for you lot.

[ Today finds Ronald under a tree, enjoying the weather as he uses Barkley (now a houndoom) as a pillow. ]

Color a bloke curious but... how'd you come up with names for your pokemon? Ever fancy naming them after anyone from home?

Just a passing curiosity!

[ There's a laugh there. ]

Cor, that's brilliant. Wager Miss Annie wouldn't be a real gator though, would she?

[bertall]

Far from it. We, um... I'm not even sure we had gators back home. The real Annie's a blond girl that can knock anyone on their back without batting an eye. She's... She's incredible.

_{[...Look, he still has a crush on her.]}

[ One that this reaper is easily detecting if that sly little grin is anything to go by. ]

Incredible, eh? Sounds like she was a bird rather close to your nearest and dearest, I'd bet a shilling.

[bertall]

T-To my nearest and dearest?

[diehardreaper]

Close to your heart, mate. You know what I mean?

[ Ooh, this one's a fun one to mess with. ]

S'not every day a bloke calls a lady incredible, if you ask me.

[bertall]

...She's one of my closest friends. It'd be weird if she wasn't close to my heart, wouldn't it?

_{[Denial isn't just a river in Egypt! ...Except he doesn't really know what Egypt is even after a year or two of being here.]}

A-And she's an incredible warrior. There's nothing wrong with admitting that, right?

[diehardreaper]

Course not! I've many a lass back home I could call a friend, mate. Nothing strange about that or admitting she's incredible in any way.

[ But have a teasing grin. ]

Though, just between you and me... it'd prolly be best to keep that bit to yourself. Anyone might think you fancy her.
