[Action] I feel like this title needs a balls joke

[tsuntrader]

[What's a productive use of time? Time exploring the woods and training.

Today involves the latter. ...No, really. There's perfectly valid "training" logic behind Silver running around the entire village with Sneasel and an oversized ball gun, a birthday present from some stupid flirt that needs some shounen spirit.

And the entire village is no exaggeration. He'll be zipping through lawns, tree jumping, sliding across any remaining snow and ice as if he was raised with it, pulling off ridiculous ninja bullshit stunts, the works. He'll even head into the woods at some point.

And, of course, there are those balls that keep coming out of it. Of course... They're not just balls. They're Pokéballs, which might clue people in on why Silver's doing the equivalent of playing with a new toy. They're empty Pokéballs for a good portion of the day... And they're liable to hit anyone and anything. You know, if Silver hasn't already quickly turned a corner and collided with you or narrowly avoided a collision due to good reflexes.

Of course, later on, it will also have a bird in it, so if your life long dream is to have a two foot tall bird come out of a ball and accidentally collide with you or tackle you over, now's your chance.

This is totally valid and legitimate training, guys. Really.]

[TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.] Are you okay? [Or get Silver's help. That's an option too.]

[hasnobeats]

[ALL THE (UNSURE) RIGHT NOW... thanks bird thing but that is just awkward so Otonashi will get up on his own.]

Yeah, I'm fine. That bird just flew into my face though.

[..Oh isn't he one of those guys he and Naoi had a snowball fight with..]

[tsuntrader]

...That's my fault, not his. [Wow, rude. See if he ever offers you help again!]

[hasnobeats]

[Hey. Hey. Would you let a bird pull you up if you fell? You could break its wing. Or something.]

...How?

[tsuntrader]

...Bad aim.

[hasnobeats]

[Oh wait nevermind the snowball guys were Gold and Red whoops--

........]

You threw a bird?

[tsuntrader]

I threw the ball he came out of.

[hasnobeats]

[more .......]

He was inside of a ball? [what.. Just imagining a giant bird inside of a baseball or something now.]

[tsuntrader]

[Holding up his Pokéball.]

[hasnobeats]

..Woah, it was inside of that? [...it's so small.] How does that work?

[tsuntrader]

[Quickly recalling Murkrow and letting him back out to demonstrate.] It's what you use to catch a Pokémon in the first place.

[hasnobeats]

...What the hell... [JUST.. watching as Silver does that, and staring.] ...Geez, that's so weird! It's kind of cool too, but... [so.. weird... Even after watching it it still makes no sense.]

[tsuntrader]

It's basic technology in my world.

[hasnobeats]

...Seriously? You've got some weird technology there then... How does it even fit inside? It was a lot bigger than that just a second ago.

[tsuntrader]

...It just does.

[hasnobeats]

...That makes no sense.

[tsuntrader]

It shrinks as it goes in? [It's Pokémon, the answer to just about everything is "shit's just magic" or "bullshit science and technology".]

[hasnobeats]

[That... makes even less sense.] Isn't it uncomfortable?

[tsuntrader]

I don't think so. [They've never seemed uncomfortable in them, so...]

[hasnobeats]

Really? That's so weird.. [..Huh. He looks over at Murkrow and (wow is he really trying to talk to a bird here) asks.] So... Do you think it's uncomfortable?

[tsuntrader]

[Murkrow shakes his head, then settles right into Silver's shoulder, trying to indicate that it's really comfortable. He even lets' out a soft, content krow.]
