2nd Test // Written // Chell

[ Her handwriting is still kind of childish-looking, scrawled and dipping below their lines at times. Still, it's a small improvement over how she wrote to begin with. If you try hard enough, you might even be able to tell what the poor test subject is trying to write. ]

What are you doing? These are animals. Not toys. Not test subjects. They should be free. They dont deserve this.

I will take any I see and let them go.

Dictated

[ Hopefully the Journal dictated that correctly for him. ]

Have you talked to them to come to the conclusion they would prefer to be away from the human they are with?

No I haven't talked to them. Theyre animals. They cant speak.

Dictated always

Swablu! [ It's a little.. indignant of a chirping noise. ]

She does not think that you make sense; speaking is sounds, and she can make them well enough.

[ruin_mania]

[She's still unsure about this whole "using journals to communicate" thing, but that sounds an awful lot like Team Plasma doctrine right there. Raine writes back.]

If a Pokemon's partner is abusive or cruel to it, that is one case and you'd be correct. But for those who enjoy companionship and are happy with their partners, the cruel act would be taking them away.

Why balls? How do they fit? It has to be painful. No room to move.

[ruin_mania]

Their bodies don't, you see. They're converted to a type of energy first - it's the same way Pokemon are stored in a computer. Pokemon curl up naturally to heal, you see, so most find the Poke Ball relaxing.

Some don't, of course, but they still choose to accompany their partners. I prefer to keep my Pokemon out while I'm exploring, but large crowds make make them nervous; cities are better suited to keeping them in their Poke Balls.

[Dairine is going to assume this is a worried kid and respond accordingly.]

Bad idea. Taking random Pokémon away from their trainers would do more harm than good.

Why make them fight? What good is it?

[beforepride]

[it's a good thing the journal has a 'read this entry aloud' function, because this kid is completely illiterate. he speaks his responses.]

But they're pets.
