seetheflower | ❀ 002. [ Video/Action from Violet City ]

Hellooo again everyone!

[ Menma waves cheerfully at the camera, a sweetly big grin crossing her face. ]

I guess you all saw that fog the past days? That was so scary! I couldn't even see my feet. [ After saying that, she feels the urge to kick one of her feet up, as if wanting to emphasize her point. ] Is it always like this around here? There were ghost Nokémon everywhere! I tried to catch some of them because were cute, but I could get only one in the end. Here Poppo, say hi!

[ She stretches her arm out of the screen, to pull a Drifloon towards herself. The baloon Pokemon blinks at the camera, and makes some noise before trying to float out of view again. Menma giggles, letting it go. ]

Don't mind him, he's shy- but did you see how cute he is? I'm so proud of taking him with me. I named him after one of the Super Peace Busters, too! Anyway, I also have a question! [ She takes a moment to clear her voice, ready to say something of vital importance! ] ... Where can I find a bike? Walking is fun, but biking is even more fun and I really really want to buy a bike right now! Can anyone help me with that, please?

[ And then she waves again. ] Thank you and bye bye!

I did! School was fun because all my friends were with me!

...Yeah, that's the best part of it by far.

[ She... turns less cheery. ] I wasn't there for very long, though... uhm... just for like a few months.

Just a few months? Did your parents pull you out?

No, no! It wasn't that.

You see, I fell in a river and drowned. That's why I couldn't go to school anymore.

[ She doesn't have enough social awareness to realize she just dropped a bomb. ]

...I- You- What.

[And now he'll need rebooting.]

I drowned in a river, and I died.

[ She thinks that needed to be repeated... ]

That's- How did that- But you're here and breathing?

That's a good question, Captain.

[ She's recalling that chat she had on her first day here. ]

Mitsuki said that dead people can come here too, like they're alive again! Except we're still dead when we return to our homes. I thought this was heaven, but Mitsuki said it's not heaven at all!

It couldn't be. I know I was still alive when I showed up.

[And by this point he probably wouldn't go to heaven anyway.]

...You sound pretty healthy for a dead girl, at least.

Hehe, I'm very healthy! I wonder if dead people get sick, though.

You probably should try to deliberately test that, just in case they can.

Uu-? I should make myself sick?

Not very sick. I mean, what if you thought you were safe from a virus because of that and it turned out you were not? If you can catch a cold, you'll know if you're not immune to illnesses. ...Though it'd be great if you could get something out of your situation.

So I should just catch a cold? That's not hard, is it? [ Menma NO... ]

[Yeah, that idea sounded better in his head.]

...Winter is coming soon. You shouldn't need to put any effort in it.

Really? Then I'm not going to buy a coat! Thank you for the advice, captain!

[...Captain Ash: terrible example to kids everywhere.]

Wait! You should still buy one! No need to test your immune system by getting pneumonia!

... What's a pneumonia?

[ It sounds somehow funny in her head. Pneumonia could be the name of a Nokemon, even! ]

It's like a terrible cold that can kill you if you don't see the doctor. Even if you get treated, you can be sick for weeks.

Eeeeh? But I'm a ghost! I can't die again!

But if you can be sick, you might still get stuck in bed for weeks, unable to play outside with your Pokémon.

...

[ That seems to convince her very well. ]

Oh no, I don't want to stay in bed when there are adventures I must have!

I thought not. You wouldn't want to miss the first snow of the season, would you?

If there's snow here, I must play with it! So I can't get sick!!
