It's unfortunate, isn't it, when people you've grown to like suddenly disappear in quick succession. I'd grown to enjoy their company, but I suppose that's how this place is, isn't it?

[It's just... Garry's first time experiencing it. He gives a sigh, video showing him seated outside somewhere this morning with one hand petting a Gible in his lap while the other dangles a lolipop. Just something to keep his mouth occupied since the urge for a smoke was particularly strong today.]

A few more Pokemon were suddenly found in my PC with Marcia and Kaede leaving. I wonder how that works? [He gives a shake of his head and offers the network a soft smile.] But... onto brighter topics.

First of all, I've made a new version of a coat I was very fond of back home. [Yes, he knows it's tattered here and there, but it's stylishly tattered. Big difference.] Secondly-

[He shifts the video to show a Charizard swooping through the air over the ocean near Goldenrod. He seems to be showing off to the Lapras that's lounging down below.]

Izzy evolved not too long ago into his final stage! He's very pleased about it and- [A Shadow Ball is suddenly tossed at Izzy, who dodges it and gives an angry roar. Garry sighs and shifts the camera to show a Banette on the docks, pointing and cackling.] ...Red Eyes evolved as well. She's even worse looking now, and she won't let up on tormenting Izzy.

[He shakes his head, ignoring the sound of conflict.]

Those two... Anyway, I've also been doodling a few outfit ideas just to past the time. If anyone's interested, this is what I've sketched out so far. [He holds up a sketchbook, with a set of four pictures shown.] What do you think? I know it's not much but, as I said, it's just something I've been doing in my spare time for fun.

[Oh hey it's you. While he isn't particularly pleased to see her, he'll still be open to criticism. He guesses.]

It's alright if they're plain. Sometimes that's what works, after all. Or do you prefer a more flashy kind of style?

[If that's what he had to describe it, anyway.]

I don't know if I'd say 'flashy' exactly, but yes. A well-designed outfit should make anyone who wears it absolutely dazzling, no matter how boring they are alone.

[Not that she'd make clothing for just ANYONE, mind...]

The clothes make the people, after all.

I suppose that's true to some degree...

[Yet he can't just agree and let it go. Of course.]

At the same time, I think a person's presence also plays into it, wouldn't you say? So many outfits can dreadfully clash with the individual demeanor. A daring ensemble can be made or broke depending on if it's worn the 'right' way.

If an outfit doesn't make your model feel powerful, you're being a poor designer.

[The clothes really, REALLY make the people, as far as she's concerned.]

Your clothes should make people feel ready to take over the entire world if they want to!

And if the model doesn't feel like taking over the world?

Then they're probably really boring. But they should still feel like they can go and take whatever their silly little dream is.

That's true... Clothing really can do a lot for a person, things they might not realize. It seems we've actually agreed on something.

....Does that mean you want to take over the world?

[He's sort of scared of the answer.]

Oh no, not me.

[She is the very picture of innocence, what are you talking about.]

I don't need to.

[She's just going to... leave that open to interpretation.]

[...Now he's just more worried.]

I see... So what do you look for when you decide to dress up then?

I'm always dressed up!

[Are you implying that a pink lolita dress is not formal-wear, Garry. Are you.]

I worked very hard to determine what type of outfit best fit my adorable personality, and this is it! With this outfit, I can step on anyone that gets in my way with ease.

[It's definitely something. But he won't say anything because he doesn't have a deathwish. Meeting Mary has taught him to be wary of blondes, and he has taken that lesson to heart, thank you.]

Well, I'm glad that you have an outfit that helps bring out your strength, then... Pinks and purples definitely do seem to suit you.

They do, don't they?

[That's... as close to a 'Thank You' as you're going to get. Sorry, Garry.]

You should consider working a little more into your own wardrobe, if you were going to ask my advice.

Personally, I'm not sure how well pink would work for me... Purple is rather easy, considering, well.

[Hair point.]
