For Arbok: First off, I wanna say, I'm a fan. You're cool, and I hope we get to see more of you in the future; preferably enjoying a nice, relaxing vacation with your favourite snack. Second off, could I please trouble you for the "secret lore"? Who has been behind everything? What is everyone hiding? What have you uncovered? Third off, could I interest you in a freshly baked croissant, included with this missive? I hope you have a pleasant day, regardless!

VAL: Hey! Thank you for the ask - I'm always excited to bring less central characters back. VAL: The last Arbok ask implied its plans changed as a result, though, and I wanted to clear something up. VAL: These responses will never be canon, but the information revealed always will be. VAL: The last Arbok ask didn't really happen, but it did independently change its plans for the reasons given. VAL: Just something to keep in mind! These "portals" are a framing device, nothing more.

Arbok notices the portal quickly. It looks around it, suspicious, and hushes its voice.

ARBOK: Greetingsss, sssussspiciousss flatterer.

It carefully picks up the croissant and flips it up in the air. It smacks the pastry hard with its tail, and it goes flying.

ARBOK: Here'sss my first sssecret finding: trust no one. Certainly not the godsss. ARBOK: Here'sss my sssecond: No one but the godsss can make portalsss like thisss one. Catching my drift? ARBOK: And one lassst ssspicy sssecret: Poissson typesss are not immune to poissson, merely resssissstant. ARBOK: I'm not ssstupid anymore, Hoopa. Watch your back. ARBOK: Unlessss you're here to ssshare some anssswersss of your own?

It watches the pure-black portal with a smug glare. You try to explain yourself, but the terminal isn't accepting any more input. Satisfied, it walks away. You see its destination as it does: out of Crossroad Town, towards Basin City.

For Blastoise: What are you up to nowadays? Also, I've been looking into some new moves and I wanted to ask: how did you learn Scald and Roar? And do you have any advice in learning them? Also also, have you ever met Manaphy? Also also also, what is the most amount of times you can spin around quickly in a row without getting dizzy?

The moment you submit the message, a massive fist comes flying towards your face. You throw yourself to the ground. You feel a little silly, picking yourself up, for dodging out of the way of a computer screen. Then you remember tossing a croissant through it and it doesn't seem quite so silly anymore.

BLASTOISE: Huh? BLASTOISE: Oh, hey! Sorry about that, miss! BLASTOISE: Just doing some workouts.

You keep a comment about dropping the comma to yourself. If this terminal is like the last one, it probably doesn't support multiple inputs anyway.

BLASTOISE: Hm... I'll answer the easiest one first: five. BLASTOISE: You'd think that's nothing, but it's a lot! BLASTOISE: Just one is enough to clear spikes, which is mostly what it's for. BLASTOISE: Gotta keep spikes off when sparring with another team.

He flexes, you think. The gesture isn't really noticeable from this angle.

BLASTOISE: Speaking of, that's what I've been up to lately. BLASTOISE: I joined a guild team when I evolved, but we're not really there for the chores. BLASTOISE: Sorry, for the missions and the "helping the weak and needy." BLASTOISE: But nah, you know how it is. We're here for the food and the fighting. BLASTOISE: What more could a dungeon mon want?

He grins with pride and validation. The last two questions are good ones.

BLASTOISE: You've done your research, huh? Yeah, Scald and Roar are both TM moves for me. BLASTOISE: Expensive stuff. We take on the best-paying missions, and it pays off! BLASTOISE: I haven't met a Manaphy yet, no, but I've got something better: BLASTOISE: I've met a Phione. And not just one, but two. BLASTOISE: They were there to deliver a letter, to me!

Blastoise blushes and turns away.

BLASTOISE: Sure, I'm pretty sure the letter was a prank. BLASTOISE: And they were laughing really hard, sure. BLASTOISE: But don't forget - girls love a guy who can make them laugh. BLASTOISE: If you see them again, let me know...?
