Say.

[Generally when Fuji starts off with a phrase like that, coupled with that particular glint in his eyes, those who know him well enough give him a wide berth and try not to maintain eye-contact for too long. He's currently seated in the Mahogany pokemon center, looking cheerful and attentive, which generally means that he's bored as hell and gods forbid you attract his attention in any way.

But people don't know that. Yet. He tilts his head, and goes on, whimsically.]

People still celebrate their birthdays here, don't they? If you've arrived as an eighteen-year-old, and some time passes and your birthday rolls around, it's natural to want to celebrate it -- especially with the friendships that spring up over time.

On the other hand, I've heard from the grapevine that when you return to your own world, you're dropped off at the exact same point as when you've left.

[Consideration!]

If an eighteen-year-old celebrates his nineteenth birthday here, would that make that hypothetical person both eighteen and nineteen at the same time?

[That smile is wry. So very wry.]

In other news, I've recently heard of a tree that punches people.

Out of curiosity, how well does it dance?

It's more of a matter of diligence, really.

[Curious. Hm.] I've never heard of a stationary pokemon before. Doesn't it get bored, standing there?

I'm not sure... maybe not, though, since it's there all the time?

I'd ask, but I'm not sure if I want to risk getting punched. I'm no good at running.

If you get attacked, you can battle it. I heard it's weak against water..

Are you sure about that? I mean, it is a tree.

Sudowoodos are rock type Pokémon.

You can kind of tell, by the way its name sounds, that it's not really a tree.

Clever. [Amusement goes here.] It sounds like a lot of people did their research.

How have you been, by the way? It's been a little while since we've last spoken.

I've been all right. And yourself?

Bored, mostly. I'm surprised. Being a paper-pusher isn't as fulfilling as I thought it would be.

A paper pusher? [What is that, says his face.]

[Chuckle goes here.] Something like a general secretariat. It involves a lot of sorting and filing. The sort of job that requires a lot of paper and not a lot of thought.

That sort of thing.

Oh... that definitely doesn't sound like the kind of job you'd enjoy, Fuji. You seem to like things that make you think..

Maybe. Thinking is easier when there's something to think about.

[Amusementttt.]

By the way, have you thought about those laws?

...The laws?

No, not now. There's been a few other things on my mind.

[Huh. Kindly--]

Penny for your thoughts?

.... "What do I do now", I suppose.

There are reasons for me to try to go back, but I also have a lot of reasons to stay here.

Sounds tough. [... actually, he can sympathize. But he's just going to gloss over it for now.]

It sounds like a big decision, in the grand scheme of things. Have you spoken to your friends about it?

....Yes.

I promised them that, once I do that I need to do back home, I'd come back.

Is it the sort of promise that you think you'll be able to keep?

....I have to try.

But I'm not sure about how sure I can be. [He shrugs. ] One wrong step and I might end up dead.

[..... well, doesn't this remind him of something else.]

You're putting quite a lot on the line.

[...] Is your conviction really so strong?

I suppose that's what you have to bargain when you want to stop a murderer.

[And he shrugs some more.]

[That elicits a chuckle, for some odd reason.]

On the other hand, it's considered bad taste to make a promise that you can't keep.

...I know that.

[He shakes his head.] I'm not scolding you. It's not my place.

It just means that you need to do whatever it takes to keep that promise, right?
