[Emporio has been given a dire choice.

This is definitely someone from a world like Flowey's. Maybe the future?? Mayors are more of a modern (ish) thing, so he can't see her being from before any...mountain business, however that went.

But also.

He would be exposing this poor deerling to Flowey.

...

Emporio decides not to say anything about that!] I see...

...I guess that's pretty definitive in that case. Th-though, surviving without a soul seems...

[Flowey seems to be a rather bizarre exception to the rule, and given his experiences back home, he's inclined to agree.

People without Stands died.

Fast.]

What would even remove a soul though...

[Don't talk about creepypastas, don't mention rumors allegedly from the dark web, don't mention weird things Kris said...]

Umm... surgery...? Haha. Like I said, it's really uncommon. Sorry, weird topic.

[She's getting into a good rhythm of working and talking at the same time. Maybe Archnemon was right-- she can be helpful! That's a nice feeling.]

Anyway! What kind of stuff do you do for fun, Emporio? Besides helping out in the clinic. I know you do that! [Right. Normal conversation. She should work on that, next.]

[seacub]

Y..yeah.

What would that even be to treat...

[He can't help but mutter that curiosity aloud, sorry. But anyway!]

Oh. Uh...I guess I like reading a lot?

...I didn't really have much else to do before. I would sometimes throw a baseball around, but that was always alone. ...I was told it'd be a good idea to uh...maybe try playing it again here but...

[He's not really sure that's going to work out with so many quadrupeds.]

[holidaygirl1225]

[That makes sense... he did have to learn everything from books.]

Reading is fun! Books can really take you to a whole different world. Uh... in a figurative sense this time, haha.

[The comment about being alone while playing baseball is deeply saddening. This poor kid... She tries to come up with an idea.] Well... maybe I couldn't play baseball normally, but I bet a lot of us could hit the ball using attacks, right? It wouldn't be a 'real' baseball game, but it would still be fun!

[seacub]

[He admittedly gets a laugh out of that gag.] Pfff...It'd be a busy life if you travelled every time you opened a book, that's for sure.

[He considers her words about baseball though. The idea of...adapting to it.]

...Maybe... ...I guess...it could end up more like kickball then?

[holidaygirl1225]

Haha... I guess it would end up more like kickball, huh? [She doubts he's had a chance to play that, either.] Still! It would be a fun break from quests and stuff, right? And a way to show off our powers besides having to battle!

[She still remembers Umemiya seemed hesitant that he was more 'built for fighting' than ever as Lucario. He hoped to use his powers to help him plant a garden, instead. Maybe this could be a version of that for Emporio, she thinks.]

[seacub]

[He definitely hasn't had the chance!

At least he's nodding in agreement.] Probably...we'd have to make sure everyone knows the rules, and set up teams...oh, and we'd need space...

[....Well, it seems like a plan is forming?]

[holidaygirl1225]

I bet we can find an open field somewhere! We could even set up places for people to just sit and watch! [Now she's getting excited!] ... Maybe it could even be a big inter-guild activity! Though some people would maybe treat it more as a competition, haha...

[seacub]

Probably not far from here even, [he muses.] I mean, Bottlecap is surrounded by woods, but out here it's just a lot of fields..!

...C...competition is probably unavoidable yeah...

[holidaygirl1225]

Weeeellll.... a little healthy competition's probably fine. Right? [She hopes at least.] Let's make it happen! It'll be nice to have something fun to work on, too!

[seacub]

Probably..!!

Let's suggest it to Mightyena then. Or...maybe Abomasnow would want to plan for it?

[Does Abomasnow's precise city planning have room for a baseball field... ...Hopefully.]

want to wrap? :O

[holidaygirl1225]

Maybe we could talk to Mightyena before asking for any big plans... [... still, she doesn't think Mightyena will have any major objections.]
