[The video feed shows Lust sitting on the kitchen floor, in her black sweats, hair pulled back. She's been practicing her solo act with Guttle, and it's the ridiculously large and food loving Spheal that is on her mind at the moment.]

...so how large is too large for a Spheal?

I'd have to see the spheal in question to hazard a guess...but if it's happy, it should be all right? Happy and healthy...

[ she's curious now, though. ]

He seems perfectly happy.

[Lust turns her 'gear to show Guttle, his eye makeup running a little and his lipstick smudged but looking perfectly thrilled with life in general. He's roughly fifteen pounds over the average for a Spheal.]

But I also suspect he's over a hundred pounds - not by much, but still.

Well...if you're really worried about it, you can always ask a Nurse Joy. But, I don't think that he seems to be doing badly...

[ She's not an expert. ]

Rather, it's clear you care about him a lot, so of course he's happy.

He's not showing any signs of physical distress over it - he's fit, he exercises with me. He's just large.

Maybe we should go see the local Nurse Joy, though. Just to be sure.

[At the compliment, Lust just waves her hand.]

He's a giant, stupid, food-loving light in my life, I don't know what I'd do without him.

[You caught Veronica at a boring time, Lust, so this is perfect for a distraction.]

...Uh.

[What is the answer to this question.]

It depends on what you're using the Spheal for, I guess?

Well....rolling, I suppose.

It's part of our circus act, I balance on top of him while he rolls around. He loves it.

He also makes the perfect yoga ball at this size....

A... circus? Do you mean the circus they have in Goldenrod city?

[Video]

[a_sin_for_him]

Mmhmm. I've become a circus performer. My brother Envy and I have a trapeze act.

[lullabytes]

At least that way you would be able to put your worries out of mind. I think...that'd probably be for the best. After all, it's not as though going to see a Nurse Joy is a bad thing, right? Maybe he'll get a lollipop for good behavior...

[ She tilts her head, curiously. ]

Is he your starter...? Or...?

video;

[a_sin_for_him]

Oh god, if he gets a sucker, he'll want to go all of them time!

Yes, he's my starter. He's really a very sweet, simple thing. It's very endearing.

[lullabytes]

Not everyone forms that kind of bond with their starter, but...I'm always happy to see people who have done so. It's a sort of special thing, I think...

"Take this, it's dangerous to go alone".

Oh, that's cool! Jimmy talks about the circus sometimes, so I guess you know him too, then.

[There was only one circus in the region... she thought.]

[diehardreaper]

A spheal, eh?

S'long as you aren't overfeeding him... course, if you fancy using him for battle, he prolly won't be much help.

[ And don't mind his curiosity... ]

What are you using him for though?

video;

[a_sin_for_him]

I found myself here alone, except for him. He's been a constant at my side since then.

I can't imagine not bonding that way with him.

[Video]

[a_sin_for_him]

Oh yes, I know Jimmy. Not very well, but we've met. Enthusiastic young man.

I just joined recently.

[a_sin_for_him]

I don't think I am, but it's hard to tell. Spheals naturally consume a vast amount of food. But no, I'm not battling with him.

I don't use him for anything, that's a terrible way of saying it. We do things together, if he wants to. And he's a circus Spheal, we have an act where I balance on top of him and do things.

[diehardreaper]

You should prolly be alright s'long as he's not horking it back up, then!

[ Choice advice, Ronald. But at the mention of the act, he practically brightens up. ]

S'that right? Blimey, I figured I hadn't met everyone at the circus yet. Course, m'sure I would've remembered seeing a show from a beauty such as yourself, love.

[a_sin_for_him]

I'm taking him to the local Nurse, just to be sure. At least have him weighed.

[Lust laughs.]

I joined recently, along with Envy. You'll have plenty of chances to catch my performance.

[diehardreaper]

That'll prolly be a good idea to start. Last thing you'd want is the poor sod unable to perform because you've bloated him up too much.

[ Pardon him snickering at the second bit. ]

Joker works fast, eh? Already recruited another couple of souls. I've been with the lot ever since I got here myself! Been doing the knife act for a bit... though I'd love to see your show.

[a_sin_for_him]

He bloats himself up, I've tried dozens of diets for him. At least he's fit.

He does, doesn't he? He made the offer shortly after I arrived here, but I declined. Now that I'm settled in Goldenrod and I met some of the other performers, it seemed like a fun venture. Envy and I are going to be doing trapeze stunts for our main act. You'll have to watch us practice.

How long have you been working with knives?

[diehardreaper]

That's one thing your Spheal's got going for him the way I see it! But buggering hell... The rate Joker's going, we might end up with more people staffing than an audience! Though, seeing as you lot're new, it'd be a pleasure to help in any way I can.

[ Ah, Joker... will your recruiting powers never cease...? But that's all in jest. ]

Been working with them all my life... and then some, I'd wager. Course, it's prolly the first time I've ever had to use knives for this sort of thing. I usually have them on for self defense.

[a_sin_for_him]

It is a rather large circus, isn't it? But thank you, I appreciate the offer.

No, I can't say I've ever used my athletics and flexibility for entertainment purposes before. But it's a bit exciting, isn't it? Turning something to a new purpose.

[diehardreaper]

No worries! I'm usually around town if you ever need my help.

[ There's a sigh from that though and what appears to be a small, nostalgic grin. ]

Yeah, it's a bit of a change if you ask me. Course, the way things are here, it's a bit too quiet. Not that I mind the sudden holiday! S'just different is all.

[a_sin_for_him]

Do you know anything about trampolines?

[Lust nods]

I've heard that sentiment before. I prefer the quiet, myself, but I do wonder if the novelty will wear off. I haven't been here a full year.

[diehardreaper]

Haven't really had to use them before myself but... I could name a few on my team who won't say no to a turn on it!

Hardly been here a year myself but apart from that little scuffle that happened before Christmas, it's been relatively quiet, eh?
