[hey there, Johto! it's New Year's Eve, and as such the network is receiving a video feed from Father Time himself-- who knows where the hobbling little bearded old man came from, but he's currently curled up warm and toasty leaning up against the inn at Goldenrod, with his hat and his windbreaker and his scarf and his Girafarig blanket and-- wait. it's just Sora.]

[it appears he's wearing as many Christmas presents as he could pile on today (yes, the beard was a Christmas present. it's long and gray and glorious and one of these days he'll notice the stuffed pidgey in there, too). and when he starts speaking, it sounds like Father Time is having a really difficult... time... keeping a straight face.]

... My egg exploded into a dinosaur! See? [the feed turns to reveal a very tiny Tropius-- even though she's just a baby, it's pretty obvious that she's on the small side... probably around knee height to Trainer. the Tropius squeaks in greeting and flaps a leaf like she's trying to wave.]

The pokédex said that these guys start to grow their favorite fruit around their necks because it's the only thing they eat. Sooo, I was wondering... Has anybody seen a star-shaped fruit around? I already checked the stores here, but no luck.

Yeah. Besides, it feels nice out here.

[... not that Sora would know, considering how bundled up he is.]

[ she considers this.

... Then crinkles her nose as one of those winter breezes decides to play with her hair. ]

It feels cold.

[ possibly because the jacket is not as warm and she's not running around with a blanket, or just that Kairi's a wuss. ]

A nosebleed? ... Why would their nose bleed?

Cold? Oh! Here-- [handing over that Girafarig blanket now.]

Are you sure?

[ -- except in the process of asking that, she's already bundled herself up in it. ]

You look like you need it more than I do.

I've never understood the logic behind it, but that's just how it works.

[ ENGULFED IN BLANKET. ] It's not like it's not big enough to share.

[... so Sora watches Miya for a minute, then puts a hand over his nose to check for bleeding.]

Huh...

I'm good! I've got a big coat, see?

... I don't think you're the type who would get one, Sora-san.

_{[That little figure hobbling down the street looks sorta famiiiiliaaaaar.]

[Heather's on her way back to the hotel when she spots the wise old man tottering down the street-- and with a broad grin, she moves to jog up to him.]}

Hey! Hey mister! You look old and wise. Will you tell my fortune?

[... pffff, he'll do his best to stay in character.]

As long as you stay off my lawn, whippersnapper! When's your birthday?

What kinda person do you have to be to get a nosebleed from cute?

They eat the fruit that grows from their necks? [... wtf]

Yeah! Cool, huh?

A... slightly perverted one, usually.

'S a little weird, if you ask me.

... Ohhh.

No-- no, Miya is cute, but not-- [one can practically hear his brain deflating.]

That, um... That's usually a action reserved for looking at girls, yeah.

_{[They're BOTH gonna have a hard time not cracking up. Heather, for her part, clasps her hands and tries to look all wide-eyed and earnest. ...It looks kind of difficult.]}

April first, grand sensei!

Y'mean like how it's weird that people eat Chansey eggs?

That's... still just really weird. I've never seen Donald get any nosebleeds.

... I [tries to mask a snicker behind a cough.] Well! Young lady, I do believe you're-- you'repfffffffhahahahaha!

[whoops.]

That's not as weird, since chickens lay eggs at home.
