~♥FIFTY♥~

[Action]

[ Masaomi has made a promise to himself today. It's the Monday after Valentines and he's pretty sure he hasn't been shifted yet. He's also gotten a pretty disappointing chocolate turnout on Valentines ~~probably - anyone is free to correct me if your characters gave something~~. And really, something Davis once said still weighs on him... Not that he can do anything about it this late in the game but he's going to be doing something special today:

While he's working at the Convenience Store or later in the day when he's hanging out around the square - not only is he going to flirt with almost every girl he can see, which isn't unusual, he is going to try to score as many actual dates as he can. Asking people out. Because why not? It'll be fun and chances are the plans will be put awry in the next week or two anyway.

So ladies, come at him. Or dudes come ask what he's doing or maybe join in on him. yolo swag ]

Who knows? It strikes me as being something very possible all things considered.

Yes...in that case, I suppose you may be one of the few to escape that sort of punishment if something like that took place.

...Then again, it's also a possibility that it might be dependent on whether or not you're actually successful in your endeavors during this time now as well, right?

Eeeeh, eeeh!? Are you encouraging me to seal the deal, Cilan-san?!

[ And he cups his hands over his face, feigning swooning or at least blushing ] That's so forward!

...Well, I may not be actively part of the...ah, "dating scene" at the moment like you are, but I can appreciate the sentiment behind a holiday like Valentine's Day. Expressing your admiration for someone around this time of year is normally considered a perfectly acceptable taste, strange events aside, so who am I to judge your pursuits of romance this time?

[...Not that he's implying that he might have been judging you a little any other time you were trying to hit on girls than right now...]

Really?

[ And he leans in now. Closer. Bigger. Smile-er ]

Really?

Yes, really.

[Why are you leaning towards us like that is this really necessary...]

Really? So are we going to look for Shaggy Muskawitz?

Huh? What are you talking about?

[seriously what kind of name is that is there a joke we're missing here somewhere]

We're talking about scoring here, Cilan-san! We're talking about breaking the barrier!

...Oh--[Now he looks a little embarrassed for a second, but he's quick to try to recover!] I don't know if I would think of it like that--matters of the heart should have a passionate taste to them, but you also want to be earnest too, not just seeking compatibility for the purposes of intimacy. That way your love can ripen and, if you're lucky, you may be able to become their special vintage person!

[Shouldn't it have been obvious that he was the sappy "flowers and candlelight dinner" (and probably trying to save it for more than one date IE having actual relationships with someone) type rather than just getting to the "scoring" part with someone... 8|]

[ ...Jesus.

He really can't be flapped, can he? He was trying. He was trying so hard. But now he actually feels embarrassed over Cilan's make of keeping his cool. HE even blinks at this ]

Wow. You got the touch, my man.

[Trust me, he was sweating bullets for a moment there once he realized just what exactly you were talking about, but for now he manages to laugh it off.]

I don't know about that, but...nonetheless, I will happily admit that there is something charming about the idea of romance, even if I might not be as experienced or active myself when it comes to dating or what not at the moment.

At the moment? Have there been other moments that you have been skilled with?

...Do you mean in terms of romantic endeavors? Um, let's see... [The fact that Cilan even has to think about it for a second should be all the answer Masaomi needs, but Cilan still tries to come up with an answer for that anyway.] ...Well, I have helped Pokemon get together with their compatible partner once or twice before, like when my friends and I helped a pair of Cottonee become a couple...

[...But other than being able to successfully do a little Pokemon match-making (or valentines-induced shenanigans like last year), it's probably safe to say that Cilan is not quite as experienced with romance personally speaking. There are girls that do like him though, like the girls that hang out at his gym, but he's never dated any of them so does that even count?]

[ ... Wow bro. He smirks at that and is reaffirmed that he needs to help Cilan out in matters of love. But thne he just shakes his head and shrugs. Because you know what, fair enough ]

Not bad. That's gotta be a stressful thing.

[Assuming he's referring to the Pokemon match-making thing Cilan was talking about--]

Well, with some Pokemon, they prefer their partner to be a Pokemon that's capable of holding its own in battle, so they'll sometimes battle one another or other prospective mates to impress their desired partner. At the time, my friends and I helped train a Cottonee we met with improving its aim and dodging skills so that it could impress another Cottonee that it was smitten with.

[...Unless there was something else you meant by that, in which case, hey, enjoy the free lesson about Pokemon match-making.]

You know, I could see that. Because that would definitely be how Linda does.

[He nods] Given her personality, I would be a little surprised if that wasn't the case.

How is Linda, by the way?

She's... been improving. The snacks you gave me have helped a lot.

Oh, that's good! I'm glad to hear that there's been an improvement. [He's been working on improving that recipe here, so he's glad that it was good.] If you want, I can make more snacks for her if you'd like me to.

Honestly, I'd really appreciate it. I'm hoping to get her to a point where I'm comfortable using the Thunder Stone I have in my room to give her the final push... but I'd also like some thoughts on you for that subject.

[ Silver backed up that idea, but then this guy's the pro ]

Ahh, that would certainly be wonderful if Linda evolved! Evolution has such an amazing taste to it, watching your Pokemon grow from all the effort they've put themselves through as they become stronger and gain tremendous power! There's almost nothing sweeter than getting to see all of that hard work pay off! [Watching his Dwebble evolve into Crustle is one of the greatest memories he has, so of course he would like for Masaomi and Linda to have that same kind of joy again if she was to evolve into Raichu.

But then Cilan claps his hands together, tone slightly a little more serious.] However, until you can control that overflowing strength, it's hard to say whether it can be called a true evolution--it's not just the Pokemon that should evolve, the trainer should evolve too! Even though your Pokemon has evolved, you have to work together to perfect your strategies, making changes where needed to accommodate your Pokemon's new power and form. There are even rare cases where Pokemon are surprised by their own evolution and may become agitated if you're not careful, so it's best to try to be prepared in cases like those as well.

[Though, since Linda's evolution requires the use of a Thunder Stone, you might not have that issue since she would be a little more prepared for it in that case...]

[ A trainer needs to evolve too... that's actually a neat way to put it. Perfect strategies, the new form... ] Yeah, it was pretty amazing when she broke out from the Pichu form. [ He looks thoughtful now, drumming his fingers on the counter as he thinks about it. ]

In all honesty, whenever her and I used to talk about it, she's wanted to have the new power. But you know her - she gets ahead of herself sometimes. [ Even if him holding her back too much had been the problem which led to the electricity, so it's a complicated thing ] And even since we started the recharging, we've sort of been silent about using the Thunder Stone, but Silver seemed to support my theory that once we reach a certain point together, the increased power of the Raichu form might help her get back to normal completely. But that's just the thoughts of two teenagers, so...

I can't say that it's a guarantee, but...it's honestly not a bad idea to consider as well--the strength gained from evolving could potentially offer a power boost that may restore her electricity back to normal levels.

It's also important not to be too hasty with such a decision too, to think it over carefully when you're actually given the opportunity to do so, such as in this case. If you feel that you should wait until you're comfortable with the idea of using it, then that is an acceptable taste. [Even he can't say that he's immediately ready to make that decision, should he ever get his hands on a Leaf Stone to evolve Pansage with. But he puts a hand on Masaomi's shoulder, smiling.] But I wish for only the best for both you and Linda. When both of you feel that you are ready to use it, then I will be sure to offer a word of congratulations, as well as any words of advice if needed!

[ A... ha ha ] So there's no clear cut answers, are there?

[ but he leans towards the hand a bit. He does appreciate it. he appreciates Cilan. He feels supported by him ]
