Okay, so does albinism happen to run in particular Pokémon species? I thought it might've been a newborn thing, but it's been a while and normal fur hasn't grown in yet for him at all.

[A young, energetic Sneasel clambers his way up the back of York's chair. He's kind of excessively pink.

Someone's got his first shiny is what's happening here.

The Sneasel waves at the camera, then slips back down in an undignified tumble before running off again to play with York's Rotom. York watches him go before shaking his head.]

I ask 'cause I know that can cause eye problems, but he hasn't complained about it and Delta Two hasn't picked up any bad news from him. But he's a Dark type and a baby, so I dunno how much she'd be able to get from him, anyway. Do I need to get him glasses? Keep him out of the sun?

--Also, anyone celebrating Hanukkah this year, hope you had a good one. York out.

Okaaaay, well, Carolina doesn't usually go around whaling on old men, but I'll ask her to go easy on any grunkles she meets, all right, man?

From:

sneezelikeakitten

Oh no, she can beat on him. Just don't break him. He's the only family I've got here.

[Unless Mabel shows up. Or maybe grunkle Ford.]

From:

ratherbelocky

Haha, okay, dude. I'll try to keep her in check.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

Don't let him scam you guys.

From:

ratherbelocky

Uh, is that something he does a lot, or...?

From:

sneezelikeakitten

Yes. It's his life's business.

From:

ratherbelocky

Maybe you oughta warn him not to try to con any ex-special ops agents, then.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

You don't know him. Grunkle Stan will still try.

[Unfortunately.]

From:

ratherbelocky

All right, well, I'll let North and Carolina know to look out for him. Stan, you said?

From:

sneezelikeakitten

Stan Pines. Just look for a guy wearing a fez.

From:

ratherbelocky

Gotcha. Old guy in a fez. I appreciate the warning, kid...? You know, I didn't catch your name.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

[Gonna try and look more like an adult.]

Dipper. Dipper Pines.

From:

ratherbelocky

Right, Dipper.

[Geez, kid, that's actually one of the most unfortunate nicknames he's ever heard. Never go into the army, they'll eat you alive.]

You can call me York.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

[At least Big wasn't added to the front of it.]

York? Like the place in England?

From:

ratherbelocky

More like New York state. It's a theme.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

[.......]

So there's fifty of you named after states.

From:

ratherbelocky

[He laughs.]

It's a codename, dude. Special ops, remember? It's one of a couple call signs I had in my time.

From:

sneezelikeakitten

I remember. But seriously. Are there fifty of you?

[That'd actually be pretty cool.]

Next you'll tell me North and South Dakota are twins.

From:

ratherbelocky

They are. North's only ten minutes older and he still calls her "kiddo."

From:

sneezelikeakitten

[YUP.

CALLED IT.

Of course the one named North is older.]

What about the Carolina's?

From:

ratherbelocky

Nah, Carolina's an only child.

[And it is soooo easy to tell.]

I forget if she's technically North or South Carolina; whoever the other one was, I didn't see 'em much. Those of us at the top of the rankings only really went out on assignments with each other. Same faces every day, that kind of thing.
