I guess there is officially no way back now...
[Attached to that rather cryptic seeming message is a photo. It's a photo of a very official-looking document. There is a Pokemon League header, and while the complete letter is not visible, enough of it is to make out the words 'Dear Mr Arlert.
We hereby grant you permission to build your gym in the applied for location. A League-certified contractor and building crew will contact you within three business day to--'.
It is done. It is time. And he is absolutely terrified.]

Sorry, I feel like I'm barely making any sense.

This is amazing. I'm so proud of you.

Is. Is it weird that this feels completely unreal?

It's huge. It's normal to feel like that, I think.

That's awesome, Armin. Do you need any help with anything?

[It feels very unreal. And wrong. Who gave him permission to do this?]

You're going to be great at this.
[It's too late Armin, they believe in you.]

Text
It's a new chapter of your life, of course you're going to be nervous. But you've already proven yourself to these guys and the people who know you.

What are you going to do for your gym speciality anyway?

[At this point, Armin had used several of his friends as sounding boards for his gym ideas, and it is a little hard to keep track of who knows what.]
It'll be an aquatic gym. All battles will take place underwater. I wanted people to experience what water pokemon (and other aquatic species) can really do when they are in their element.

[The text cannot show how she excited is for an opportunity for cake.]

Well, maybe a small cake. Nothing too extravagent.

Congratulations, Armin. You are going to be a fantastic gym leader. I can't wait to visit!
Let me know when you want to get celebratory ice cream. My treat.
Text
I always have time for ice cream with you.
[It is a good thing this is text so he doesn't have to think about the absolutely goofy smile he's got on his face right now.]

Ice cream it is, then. Let me know when you have a free moment.
