Hello again! I am in need of some advice. I recently caught a Hoothoot, a decently sized round owl, and she seems to have trouble sleeping unless she is kept in a pokeball, staying up at all hours of the day. Is this common for such creatures? Are there perhaps better methods to assist with sleeping?

Oh, and another thing, I almost forgot! The egg I purchased at the fair hatched a few days ago. Are there any strategies for speeding this process up? I tried wrapping the egg in a warm towel, but I am not sure if it had any measurable effect.

Exactly! And those aren't remotely all them out there, just the ones I can name off the top of my head. There's far, far more. Nua is... a diverse place, mostly.

[Leo, honey, that's not what that means.]

But alas, right now it is only myself and Snippers 2.0.

If you like, you're welcome to travel with us -- myself and Morgan, I mean. It might be safer than relying on only your pokemon for company.

[maplecourt]

If I'm not intruding. Or if I'm close enough, sure?

I wouldn't mind the bit of company, it's been some time since I've really been doing anything alone.

[neverfinishanyth]

We're in Violet City, if that isn't too far. And I can't see why you would be intruding.

[maplecourt]

It... doesn't seem too far from where I'm at, no. It's still polite to ask!

[disownedbytime]

Hi! I'm Morgan. So, you're Leo's latest new apprentice? That's great! We'll be able to study and practice together, share notes, help each other play pranks...I wonder if apprentices have a hierarchy. Am I Apprentice Prime because I was here first? Oooh, do I get to send you to bring me coffee? I can be imperious!

[maplecourt]

Wait, what? I didn't sign up to be an apprentice of anything much less be tied to someone else as if I'm their errand boy!

Sir Fitzroy Maplecourt, Knight in absentia of the Realm of Goodcastle, thank you. And I suppose future villain Thunderman, if you want to get technical.

[disownedbytime]

Aw, come on, it'd be fun! Well, maybe not the errand boy part. But Leo could teach you to paint and take things apart and maybe put them back together, and everything!

Either way though, it's nice to meet you, Fitz. I can call you Fitz, right? Are you a villain-in-training? That sounds like fun, but you'll have to be really clever to avoid having heroes thwarting you all the time. What sorts of evil deeds are you planning to do? If they're not too evil, I can help!
