[video / action for the parking lot of the violet city dedenny's]
[At a little past three in the morning a video shows up on the 'gear. Ford has been something of a cryptid as of late -- more than he usually is -- and this picture just hammers that home. He's standing in what looks like... the parking lot of a Dedenny's? The lighting isn't great considering he's outside at night, which really adds to the ambience. The light from the sign glints off his glasses. He looks a little manic, but what's new?]
Come to -- what's the phrase-- come to the Violet City Dedenny's if you want an asskicking.
[Look at him, learning memes that are simultaneously from his future and also extremely out of date.]
I'm turning seventy-four in one week. I want to start celebrating early.
[There's a momentary pause.]
I should clarify I am referring to a Pokémon battle. If you were to physically fight me it wouldn't be very fair to you.
I am also open to verbal debate if you don't feel like coming all the way to Violet at three in the morning. I've noticed there isn't egalitarian appreciation of Pokémon and I won't stand for it. Every Pokémon is cute, not only your standard Eevee or Cleffa.
[He lifts up a fat little Pyukumuku. It extends its 'hand' and bops him gently on the face, skewing his glasses.]
You look at Eviscerator and tell her she isn't adorable.

[This is the second time he's been self-aware on this post. Incredible.]
No magic. Just a daily regimen of physical and mental exercise and what some might term a larger than average amount of spite. Oh, and the secure knowledge that I will live to at least the age of ninety-two, meaning no matter what I do I can't die. I don't know why so many people think knowing exactly when you're going to die would be a bad thing. It's a get out of jail free card.
[Things like this are maybe why he deserved it.]

Ah. I'm familiar with the effects of spite on combat ability. Maintaining the discipline for daily physical training at your age is commendable.
[Then Felix arches a slightly disbelieving brow.]
How the hell do you know when you're going to die? ...I will admit that knowing ahead of time does seem like the preferable option, if it's available.
