Wait, I don't understand. Why can't I eat Magikarps? They're just fish, aren't they? Really big, red fish, but... fish, right?

... Right?

My Mun-sama says they're like pets.

[allbend]

But they're fish.

[ And she's going to be hungry soon because she spent most of her extra money on buying more Pokemon. Also "Momma" didn't pack enough lunches, sheesh. ]

[humblericeball]

They're fish with distinctive personalities! Once you see one for yourself, you'll see!

[humblericeball]

...or that's what Mun-sama says.

[allbend]

Guess I'll take that as a definite "no" to eating them, then.

[humblericeball]

I think it would be...awkward. I'm sorry.

[allbend]

Hey, don't worry about it. My mun keeps giggling to herself and shaking her head, so she knows something that she's supposed to tell me.

[humblericeball]

I hope it involves food. (She would cook you a meal if she could, Korra!) It's miserable being hungry.

[allbend]

That's what got us into this conversation. At least she says I can't eat the berries or food tailored to Pokemon, so that leaves those out.

[humblericeball]

It might be poisonous. (A short moment of silence.) My Mun-sama says there might be rations. Have you looked?

[allbend]

Kinda busy trying to figure out all this "Pokemon" terminology at the moment, no.

[humblericeball]

I think...food is more important. The Pokemon won't be going anywhere, right?

[allbend]

They might if I don't keep an eye on them for long. I could keep them in their ball, but that's just so... confining.

[humblericeball]

Mun-sama says it's actually much bigger inside the ball than you think. She says it's like the perfect home for them and they're not cramped at all.

[allbend]

Yeah, well... [ She shakes her head. ] Can't be bad to have them stretch out their legs while I get all of this sorted out.

[humblericeball]

That's very nice of you. Just...don't forget about your needs.

[allbend]

Of course not! I can take care of myself just fine. Besides, there's plenty of good people around if I need any help.

[humblericeball]

It sounds like a fun place. (She hopes she can find somewhere that fun.) My name is Tohru Honda, by the way. I'm sorry for not telling you sooner.

[allbend]

Hehe. It's no problem. My name's Korra. Nice to meet you, Tohru.

[humblericeball]

It's nice to meet you too, Korra-san!

[allbend]

Thanks for the help, by the way. Other people have told me it'd be, aha... tough to try and eat these guys, anyway.
