We got it?
[There's a squeak from the camera holder, who's pointing the 'gear temporarily at the ground. Those who know Shiro probably know that voice too - his Gallade, Blue.]
Okay! Okay, hold it steady... Ready?
[Slowly, the camera pans up. One would expect this to be Sevii Island Four, right? Because that's where Shiro lives. But it's not. It's Goldenrod. And there's a long flight of stairs in the middle of the city, probably some official building.]
[The stairs have been covered with plywood, in makeshift ramps.]
[It keeps panning up, to see a teenager perched in a pilfered shopping cart, at the top of the stairs. The teen looks an awful lot like Shiro, if his hair were all black, if his face were missing its scar, and if he lost about thirty pounds of muscle.]
Great! Okay!
... Hi network! We're about to test my first roller coaster! It's gonna rule. Oh - right! Uh. Pilot Shirogane, signing on for test pilot duty!
[Did his voice crack a couple times there? It sure did. This dork is probably 16. And therefore, invincible.]
[This surely won't go wrong.]

A baby roller coaster?

But you know, all the best roller coasters go upside-down. If you could figure that out, I'd be even more impressed.

[He has extremely high intelligence scores, and negative wisdom scores...]
You'd have to get someone who knows how to like. Actually build things.

[That's not what he said...]
But that's cool. My sister's like that, too. She's the biggest nerd ever.

[He gestures over at the ramp.]
You got to learn all that stuff to pass your exams. Then you get to actually fly!
