Holy moly, it's fat city over here!

[Jimmy's looking pleased as punch. He's outside somewhere, and a little worn out and sweaty. His cured DA pomp is even more curly and springy than usual.

So I'm just out and about, flexing the old training muscles, and it happened! Epic battle, odds against us, but Omi did it! He won, and he evolved! Lookit him!

[The 'gear turns to show a satisfied Marowak in the road.]

That's my little Omi! Only he ain't so little anymore! I knew it was probably gonna happen soon, but...I dunno, I guess I figured there was some kinda warning! Now he's a big man Marowak. Makes a trainer proud. Give him a round of applause, everybody, he deserves it!

[Jimmy looks at evolution like some kind of Pokemon right of passage. And Omi did great. Maybe he won't cry as much at night now.]

Oh, and hey Madoka! Guess what I got for you?

Was he a nice guy?

[anexcitableboy]

I dunno, I never met him. Just heard about him, and had his card.

[seasaltkey]

You had his card? Like a picture?

[anexcitableboy]

Yeah. Performers for those kind of shows all got something called a pitch card. It's got a picture and some information. People get'em signed and collect'em and stuff.

Hold on, I think maybe I got one of mine around here. It's a lot newer, it's in color and everything...

[seasaltkey]

You have a card? Did you perform at the circus earlier this year? I went there, but I didn't get to see a lot of the acts...

[This is exciting!!!!]

[anexcitableboy]

Uh, no. I wasn't in that kind of show. It's...you know. Side show stuff. Hell, it's called Madame Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities. But we do things, I mean it ain't one of those deals where rubes pay to gawk at us, you know?

I juggle. Which is pretty damn impressive with these.

[He brings his hands into frame.]

I sing, too, but I never got to in the show.

[seasaltkey]

[He doesn't know what a rube is, but it does not sound like a good thing.

He blinks, not sure what he's looking at. Well, as long as this guy didn't have to much trouble doing things with those hands.]

You're better than me. I can't juggle at all!

[He laughs a bit.]

I can sing, but I don't think I can do it in front of people..

[anexcitableboy]

Lots of people can't. I started learning when I was real little, though.

[seasaltkey]

Do you think I can learn if I tried?

[anexcitableboy]

Probably! Just start simple.

[seasaltkey]

Simple... like with one ball or two?

[anexcitableboy]

Whichever's easier, I guess.

[seasaltkey]

I'll start with two then.

[This guy is really nice, and kinda cool.]

[anexcitableboy]

Just have fun with it and don't get frustrated if you don't get the hang of it right away.

[seasaltkey]

Right. Thanks! Want me to let you know how it goes?

[anexcitableboy]

Sure, if you want!

[seasaltkey]

Oh yeah! I'm Roxas!

[anexcitableboy]

Jimmy! Jimmy Darling!

[seasaltkey]

I'll see you around, Jimmy.
