[So it's been snowing in Luceti pretty heavily the past couple days, right? Right. Most people seem to prefer to stay inside and avoid the snow. That shit's cold, man.

...But not everyone. Gold is one such case. If you pass through the plaza today, you will discover some... interesting snowmen built by him, such as this charming fellow on one of the benches, or this behemoth, laying in front of the Seventh Heaven, as if to bar access to the restaurant in typical Snorlax fashion. (It's really not, if you look closely.) There's even a figure that may look familiar to some off to the side of the weapons shop, complete with snow pipe. It's clear that he's spent a lot of time on these. Having a couple assistants in the form of his Pokémon helps too, though.

...Perhaps most, erm... interesting, however, is this this little number, situated right in front of the fountain. Try not to trip over its... extra appendage.

And where is the perpetrator, you ask? He's working on another project in front of the schoolhouse. Of course, this one is far from finished, currently resembling little more than a massive mound of snow.

He is also not dressed for this weather, with the only addition to his usual attire being a pair of gloves. Snow is cold, you know. How will you react to this situation?]

...For real? [He can do it too.]

For real -- which is hard even for me to believe, sometimes.

You should take pride in your name. It's your name, after all!

You're right. There might be a billion Jacks in Luceti, but only one Buffy.

Exactly, and it's the name that represents you and your place in the world!

Besides, it's a beautiful name.

Oh...you think so?

[ awh, that's a sweet thing to say kid. ] Most people tend to just laugh at it. It's not very impressive. Too valley girl.

That's why you make it impressive! Make it more than you're known by the name Buffy... Make it so that you are Buffy! If it sounds valley girl, then make it so that when people hear your name, they don't think valley girl, they think 'awesome chick'!

[ can she, like, carry you around in her handbag? seriously. like a walking pep talk. ]

That's plenty to live up to but, ah, I'll do my best. After all -- with Albert name-dropping me in the Luceti history lessons, I'd better start owning that name.

Well, now you gotta do it. He's makin' you into a celebrity now!

My wardrobe is so not ready for this.

Get that Shiki chick to make you some clothes, if you're so worried about it.

She actually made these jeans. They're just...y'know, not celeb-status.

Tell her you need somethin' a bit more high class, then! That Haruki claimed she could make clothes to suit anyone's tastes!

She definitely can. She has my size on record for any and all cute things.

There you go, no problem then!

Thanks for the advice. Seriously.

[ she'll give this one to the boy -- smiling lightly and not holding back on the gratitude. ]

Yeah, sure... No problem. [Gold glances back at the sculpture, only to discover his Pokémon have made some considerable progress on the sculpture.]

...Hey, hey, hey! You guys couldn't even wait until I was done chatting?!

They're pretty eager beavers, I take it. Keen.

Yeah, they're dead set on gettin' this thing dead, it seems.

And they're...uhm?

[ don't stare buffy it's rude. ]

[They've been standing there all this time, and you just now think to ask that, Buffy.]

...They're Pokémon.

[ her priorities were never quite on the money. ]

Them, too? But they're so...[ real. ]

So... What?

Real.

...Well, yeah. Of course they're real. Pokémon aren't some kinda fairy tale, you know!
