[Jimmy's looking a bit more spiffed up than normal when he turns on his 'gear feed. He's obviously freshly groomed and wearing a sweater vest over his usual white button down. Jimmy has a plan.]

Good afternoon, World of Pokemon!

For anybody that doesn't know, I'm Jimmy Darling. I'm twenty five, and I'm a Pokemon Trainer and stock boy in Goldenrod. I got a house here, share it with a buddy of mine. It's a nice house. I got a ton of Pokemon. High level guys, well trained. I've got a bike, it's in great condition. I've got a kicking sense of humor. I can sing like an angel, juggle like nobody's business, and I may got mitts like a krabby, but they don't slow me down any!

I'm one hell of a swell guy! But there's one thing missing...

So what's a guy gotta do to get a date around here?

[Because after a year of going it entirely solo, why not just pitch himself over the network at large and see if anything happens?]

[So it involves dates instead of butterflies. Well, that's still okay, Wrath can just go deliver the date to Jimmy in person and then he'll have it on hand in case he meets a girl!]

[But he's still a little confused on one point.]</sub>

What is a flirt?

Flirting? That's how you let a girl know you're interested. You smile and laugh a lot, and you wink, and talk like...

'Hey dollface, what're you doing later?' or 'only thing more beautiful than this sunny day is your sunny smile, sweetheart'.

_{[Wrath listens, eyes widen. Just soaking it all in.]}

... So... you bare your teeth, and blink one eye at a time, and say-- um, 'Hey dollface, you are doing a sunny day heart later'?

_{[He starts attempting to only close one eye, but mostly is just blinking emphatically, a small, thoughtful frown on his face the whole time.]}

[anexcitableboy]

Nah nah, try 'heya dollface, what's a pretty girl like you doing in a place like this?'.

[Because sure, why not teach the eight year old to flirt.]

[garbagechild]

_{[He makes a thoughtful noise in his throat, before trying that out.]}

Hey, a dollface! What's a pretty girl like you doing in a place like this?

_{[Then he looks to Jimmy for approval.]}

[anexcitableboy]

There you go!

Alright, now try 'a swell dame like you oughtta be with a swinging cat like me'.

[garbagechild]

But I'm not a cat.

_{[Oh no. This is all so confusing!]}

Why is the dame swollen?

What is a dame?

[Video]

[anexcitableboy]

A cat means a real cool guy!

And a dame's a lady. A swell dame means she's a real neat, pretty lady!

[Video]

[garbagechild]

... Oh!

<sub>[That means Lust is a dame!]

[And Greed is a cat.]

[And Envy is... kind of both? A cat-dame.]</sub>

[anexcitableboy]

Yeah! It's slang from where I come from.

You're getting it!

[garbagechild]

[Wrath looks excited! He's learning!]

And that's what a flirt is?

That's not hard at all!

[Video]

[anexcitableboy]

Yeah! That's how you flirt!

So now when there's somebody you really like, you know how to flirt with'em!

[garbagechild]

You're so smart, Jimmy!

How did you ever get to be so smart?
