[Jimmy has to consciously stop himself from laughing, because Ashley has probably apologized to him more times today than he can count on both hands. But he knows that this is a sensitive topic for a lot of people. For him, it's just...never been a factor.]

It's okay. It's not that big of a deal. I mean, I still have my friends back home, so it's not like I'm totally by myself or anything! And I like to think that Lucy is kindof like my dad, even though he's my best friend's dad.

[Just normal for Ashley. Foot-in-mouth, insistent apologies to try and make up for it.]

I...suppose that makes sense... As long as you have someone looking out for you there. A-and here, right?

[Action]

[awesmazings]

Right! To be honest...where I live is kindof weird. Like, it's not really the same as a lot of places people live. It's real similar, but it's also really different, too. And a lot of things I get to see here- like snow- I never get to see back home.

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Oh. Oh, so you live somewhere really hot? [HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA] We don't really get snow where I live either.

[Action]

[awesmazings]

Really hot.

[SO HOT.]

When I first got here, I wasn't used to it being cold at all. It was a good thing I had lots of fire types or else I don't think I would've survived.

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Your starter was a fire-type too? [Glances at her Litwick, who's examining the cot, probably to see if she can fight it.]

[Action]

[awesmazings]

Oh no, Leader here was!

[The Manectric gives a low woof in acknowledgement. Yes hello, here he is.]

But my friend Walter gave me a Larvesta egg that evolved into my Volcarona, Inferno. She's a fire type. Then I got Lucius here not long after, and a couple others after that!

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Larvesta... Haven't heard of that one. [There are a lot of Pokémon she hasn't heard of.] Mine are all... Well, most of mine I hatched from eggs. Except for Agatha. [The Litwick.] And Eliot out there.

[Action]

[awesmazings]

I'll hafta let you meet Inferno sometime! She's been with me almost since the beginning, she's great.

[She also happens to be a giant moth but you know, that's normal around here.]

Kinda weird how everything hatches from eggs, huh?

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Really weird. Bats, and little...pigs. [Points to her Zubat, her Munna.] And who knows what else. It's unlike anything back home.

[Action]

[awesmazings]

[Jimmy nods, petting the top of Leader's head again. The Manectric looks like he's about to fall asleep with his muzzle on Jimmy's leg, assuming he hasn't already.]

You gotta be careful. One time, when I was staying in a hotel in a different town, I came back to my room with it full of eggs! There had to be like, ten of 'em at least. Luckily there were lots of other trainers who wanted 'em.

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[...Blink.]

Uh. I've only bought mine so far. Where did yours come from...?

[Action]

[awesmazings]

[...ha. About that.]

Oh, well...okay, I'm not a breeder or anything so I wouldn't be the guy to ask about how it works, but certain Pokemon can breed and well...mine decided they were going to have a buncha eggs while I wasn't looking.

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[.........]

I shouldn't have asked. Of course.

[Action]

[awesmazings]

[Have a sheepish smile, Ash.]

Told'ya it was weird.

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

[Cough.]

Maybe I'll get used to this place faster if I just accept everything is weird.

[Action]

[awesmazings]

I think so! Personally, I think it's fun having things be different. It keeps it from getting boring!

[Action]

[hashtagafreakingghost]

Haaa. Well, I'll gladly take boring anything. At least for now.
