Alright, random question for everyone now that Mother Nature is no longer trying to drown all of us with vigor.

[Kirikou is on Olivine's beach as he sends this out onto the network, a Houndoom and a Growlithe flopped over him. Hell yes to being on the beach again.]

If you had types like Pokemon, what would you be?

It's just something that randomly occurred to me while I was waiting out the rain. Me and my friend Maka have already talked about it for ourselves and the people we know.

I figured I was psychic-fighting. Back home, I'd what you'd call the heavy hitter of my team. This relates sorta to my fighting thing, but also to why I'm psychic type or at least I'd say so. See, back home, if you have the right soul and the right know-how, you can resonate your soul with someone else and it makes you stronger. Most people can only do it with one person if the circumstances are right, but there are people with flexible souls who can resonate with anybody and I'm basically one of those types. I can even do it with multiple people- basically one in a billion sort of thing.

[That's a blind estimate. He's just simply never heard of such a thing happening to his extent besides him.]

So.... Yeah, what's your type or what you think it'd be, and why? Let's get some conversation going up here.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Most people don't... take the time to see what allows the city to change so much. That's what the Process is.

Change the city- like architecture and all that?

Yes. That was... well. That was my job.

Yeah, you said.

So you made it to do your job better?

In a way. The Process was what I was using all along, I just... didn't realize it. And the Transistor - the 'sword' - was made to allow us to control it even more.

How can you control that sorta thing more? And- I guess why, since it sounds like you were doing pretty good before you figured things out.

It's... mm. We wanted to... cause more than just physical change. We wanted to change the city... to make the people change, as well.

Ew, politics.

[The wisdom filled words of a teenager, everyone.]

[That actually makes him chuckle a little, though it's quiet.]

I'm not really... one for politics myself. That part was mostly taken care of by my... friend.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have a friend around my age who's just become head honcho of the DWMA and everything, so he has to deal with this whole big freakin' mess we're left with.

But, y'know, it's better than fighting all the time and I say that as the guy who likes fighting.

What was your friend's name? I knew Death the Kid.

Ah... Grant Kendrell. I don't know anyone called... that.

[That is a weird name what even.]

Oh yeah, I can definitely imagine an old guy politician with that sorta name.

And don't worry, Kid had a pretty unique name.

[Kid was a pretty unique person in a lot of ways, actually. But that's neither here nor there.]

Well he was eighteen years older than me. Give or take a few months.

[... He's old compared to most people here, it seems.]

How old are you?

I'm... thirty seven.

[You crazy kids -]

Heeeey, congrats on making it to that age! [ACTUALLY GENUINE THUMBS UP]

[... Um.]

Thank... you?

[How does he even respond.]

[That's a good start.]

So, what kind of stuff did you built? Like, were there particular designs you liked or something?

All sorts of things. Parks... skyscrapers... concert halls... I designed and built whatever... whatever the whims of the people decided on.

You didn't work for, like, a company or something?

I worked for the city.

Oh, so a government job sorta deal?

More or less. Additions were voted on by the residents of Cloudbank, and the winning suggestions were sent to me to implement.

Wait- people voted on the kind of things that got to be built? That sounds cool!

[... Other worlds are weird.]

Mm. Everything from the color of the sky and the weather to the types of flowers in the parks was voted on.
