[Well, here's a rare sight these days: a certain lazy mage is actually showing his face on the network. He's sitting in a chair, a tired expression on his features, his arms crossed over his chest...

...and a Clefairy popping up every few seconds, poking him with what appear to be an assortment of evolution stones. Moon is not among them.

He lets this run for about thirty seconds before speaking up.]

All right. Who gave her this idea, and why? Hell, I'd take an answer for what she thinks she's doing.

I'm not even going to ask where she got them - I'm sure that's where Gail and Julia were the other day, taking a trip to Goldenrod on their own. Just... what?

[Oh my. Is she doing what Cecil thinks she's doing?]

...Having you ever explained to her that humans grow and age naturally over years, with no stones or levels involved? She might need the biology lesson.

[Probably, but probably not for the exact reasons you're expecting.]

You mean she... I thought she understood that already!

It's so different from their own growth, it must be a difficult concept for them to accept, even after a proper explanation.

Maybe, but it's been almost five and a half years now, she's never had a problem with the concept before...

Can you think of anything that could have triggered this attempt, then? Has she met new people recently?

No idea... I guess she could've used my 'gear at some point, it's not like I keep it with me all day every day.

Which means anything could started this... Have you tried asking her why? Surely she'd be the best at explaining her own reasons.

...All right, sure. Rose, why are you doing this?

["Fairy~" You only had to ask, Dear Partner. She's got a very serious explanation, that she writes on her white board.]

The man from the writing contest said there are evolution stones that affect humans in bad ways. I'm making sure these are safe. :)

[The scariest thing is she's learned what a smiley face is.

(also Rose that's not exactly what he said...)]

[...
......
.........]

............Surely they'd not sell harmful stones so overtly, especially not to children. Perhaps the stones in question are not available to the public, and unlikely to be distributed?

[She considers this.]

Maybe. But I've never seen someone sell a crack in a bag, so I have to be sure it isn't a secret name for something.

[...Yes, this is what this is about: Rose does not know what drugs are. ~~I'm so sorry.~~]

[~~Don't be.~~ Sadly, or perhaps luckily, Cecil's knowledge of drugs is limited to herbs and potions that idiots try to smuggle through his port.]

...Could it be that cracked or chipped evolutionary stones can somehow emit harmful energies...?

[Meanwhile, if Ryner knows anything about the subject himself, it's not going to include modern slang, so.]

No idea, and that's not really a subject of research I'd be up for pursuing myself even if it is the case... Rose, if you think something bad's gonna happen, why are you poking me?

["Fairy!" Because you're resilient enough to handle anything that comes, Dear Partner!]

...You just want to see what happens, don't you.

And what if something did happen? How could you live happily, with your trainer's injury or illness on your conscience?

[In any other circumstances he'd have added death to the list, but...]

["Clef!" Rose's response is to climb up onto and hug Ryner's shoulder, cutely and angelically and with the expression of a Clefairy who thinks that she's not doing anything wrong. If her Dear Partner can take her Thunderbolt all the time, he can handle anything!]

...I should be fearing for my life, shouldn't I.

For you well-being, at the very least. I've no doubt she means well, but testing potentially dangerous items so directly is asking for trouble.

[Or for painful and permanent mutations. Yay.]

Right?

[He finally grabs the Clefairy by whatever passes as the scruff of the neck for pink fluff balls and picks her up, stopping her little experiment. She starts pouting a little.]

Rose, wouldn't it be better to look them over to make sure they're not cracked?

As you could look at multiple stones at once, it'd be more efficient. Safer, also, for the two of you.

[Surely she is susceptible to logical arguments?]

See, Rose? He's got a point.

[...Rose is still a little pouty, because a part of her still wants to see what happens, but it looks like she is considering.]

You could also use the opportunity to warn the shopkeepers about their damaged goods, ensuring that no one else will be negatively affected by their properties.

[Helping others is the best motivation, right?]

[okay that she'll complain about.

"Clef clefairy clef!" But she doesn't know what it does! How can she warn them if she doesn't know what happens?]

[That sure was some complicated Pokémonese.]

...Rosie...?

[Clefable clef clef fable, says a voice somewhere to the side. Just tell them you heard the stones explode, they'll panic and take care of all the tests!]

["...Faaaaaair." Ohhhhhh. That makes so much sense.]

...I really hope that didn't just give her more ideas...

Rosie is mostly a sensible girl. Whatever she's suggesting will be neither illegal nor likely to kill anyone.

[Probably.]

...Haa, well, if you say so.

["Clef!" Well, at least Rose looks like she's willing to stop now.]

Now, if it were Avenger offering heartfelt advice and detailed suggestions, I'd be much more worried...

[Rosie snorts at that. Please, even at her worst she's not nearly that bad.]
