[Fai is looking unusually somber, and even in monochrome, it's easy to tell that he's a lot paler than usual. On his shoulder stands Babycakes, now evolved into a Floette, like an equally serious guard of honor with her flower like a rifle against her shoulder.]

[The young man says nothing at first, just holds up a rather skillfull sketch of a poké ball. Those with a bit of knowledge in history should probably recognise at least the general shape and design of it.]

Nevermind that they put those machines there to force Tyrantrum to evolve without their consent, but... they use these. Team Evolution, I mean. They keep pokémon imprisoned in these things, just like in the old days.

[He draws a deep, shaky breath.]

Despite how abhorrent this practice is - and believe me, I understand if you're angry - we should remember that they are from a different place with different laws. Wild accusations and demands aren't going to do us any good, is it? It's better if we try to reason with them, try to make them see why such treatment is wrong.

After all, the people in the old days were not all evil. If they were, why would the Savior have thought us worth sacrificing herself over? They were just ignorant.

But I thought you should be... warned.

It's... really hard to understand. But I think it has to do with normality. People can do all sorts of horrible things if they think it's how things are supposed to be. [Such as think of a young woman as nothing more than a breeding mare - he knows a little something about the way people can justify unreasonable things already.]

It's clear that in the old days, there had a lot of amazing things which we still have no idea how to copy now. Good things thought out by brilliant people. And still they sought to enslave even the Gods. Sometimes it's clever that do the most stupid things.

Then who really cares about normal? Forget that!

What good is their stupid technology if they can't invent a way to pull their heads out of their asses?

[He laughs, then, and likes Feliks so much for being able to make him laugh even now.]

You're right. Sometimes, what people really need is just for someone to shake them and tell them that all their logic and carefully constructed reasons need to be exchanged with... well, a base minimum of common sense.

I just can't believe they need something that basic explained...
