[It's been a while since JW has appeared on the network. Today he is sitting at a breakfast table in the lobby of the Violet Hotel. He's not eating anything but there is a glass of orange juice at his elbow. Psyduck's paws can be seen poking into the corner of the frame.]
Hey, ya'll. Question.
[He glances to the side, clearly looking at something with disdain.]
Which Pokemon do you hate the most?
[Feed ends.]

It does seem hard to be human for a whole lifetime. So much changing and growing and always more things to learn and do...
But I think there's something amazing about all of that. Humans...we can be whatever we want to be. We can invent and name and be ourselves.

[JW brings a thumb and forefinger up to press into the soft spots under his eyes.]
I just. Don't like Pokemon that much and it's all anyone in this world talks about. I never wanted to train Pokemon and make them fight each other or whatever the hell they're made to do. I just want to have as few problems as possible until the next wormhole dumps me somewhere else.
[Psyduck pats JW's arm with a serious look on her face. She's grateful for Rose being there to help her out.]

Well that's alright. You don't have to catch more Pokemon or battle them if you don't want to. I only battle when someone challenges me, because I have Pokemon that like to. And I don't catch Pokemon, but I do make friends with so many of them.
What do you like to do?

[It comes out a little more like a whine than anything else.]
Rose, if I don't do this trainer crap I'll get killed out there! You know what's weird? I haven't seen a single gun since I showed up. It's--so frustrating! If I wanna just woodcarve and cook, I have to stay put because if I walk up the wrong mountain a giant sheep is going to eat my skin off!
[He drags his fingers through his hair with a thousand-yard stare, very clearly imagining that exact scenario.]
Aauuuuughhh. Aaaaa. Oh, ugh. Oof. Hang on a second.
[He moves his hands from his head to his stomach.]

You know....I might be able to help! There's all kinds of ways to see this world and not risk being challenged by a powerful Pokemon. I promise no sheep are going to eat you!

I'm listening.
