And a good mornin' ta everyone~.

[There's Joker, smiling like usual and with his hair still dark. He's a bit more done up than he was the last time he turned on his Pokegear.]

So! First off, a bit a business for anyone lookin' for work. As always, the circus is always open ta folks who'd like ta run stalls or participate in any a the acts. We could always use folks who know their way around all this fancy tech or who can patch folks up just in case. However! This is for the future.

Ta be exact, October. Our good friend Jack has left the haunted house in the care of Jims and me, but two folks does not a haunted house make! So if yer interested in that sorta work, let me know, and we can see how things are come October!

Secondly, bit more personal, but beyond breedin', any recommondations for where ta fish for good water types and the like?

Think that's- [He breaks off as a Zoroark paw reaches from off screen and taps his shoulder.] Ah, before I forget. My Invidia has a problem he'd like some outside opinions on. Don't know what it is, he ain't keen on tellin' me just yet. Let me know if ya would like ta have a chat with 'im.

[The group in unison replies,] Hello!

[Ruskin speaks first,] What's been bothering you, Invidia?

[pipers_son]

There's another Zoroark... I'm trying to..

[There's a pause as he remembers the proper word. He's certainly heard Joker use them often enough.]

I'd like to court her, but I don't know how to make her like me.

[Ruskin, the resident flirt, gives a little laugh, though it lacks any malice. She moves centre screen,]

Is that all? Well, if you want her to gain some interest, then you should start by being friends with her. Remember the things she likes and doesn't like. Make sure that you really do like her. When you sense that you've become friends then ask her if she'd be interested in dating you!

She might say no, but don't push it onto her too hard. That just would make her want to run away. Stay friends and she might change her mind in time, but don't expect it. Remember she's not the only Zoroark out there, or you might smother her in affection.

[This is the most detailed explanation he's gotten so far, and Invidia's ears perk up in noticeable interest.]

Do you really just ask after a while?

[silentscales]

It is that easy. Just be yourself. Don't go into a friendship trying to hide things, it can hurt both parties badly if you try to cover something up. So just relax and be yourself! You don't even need to relax, a lot of us girls think that a nervous guy is cute!

[pipers_son]

Do they? I was told it was going to be much harder!

[silentscales]

It has the possibility to be, but the more you stress the more likely it will be harder, so just relax. You can do this!

Then... I'll do my best. Everyone has very good advice so far.
