[ Good afternoon, Johto. Y'might be greeted to an odd sight today as Xion's Gear comes alive thanks to Bell the Togekiss (who somehow has managed to work it despite not having any... arms, per se). ]

Hah! Yah!

[ Wooden Keyblade in hand, Xion's swinging at an invisible enemy like this. A jump, and she tries an air combo. Least she's not doing any of the fancy stuff she knows, and even if she could, her now human body would make it difficult to do so anyway.

But the expression on her face... and the amount of force it looks like she's putting into the swings... Someone hasn't had a good night nor sleep, that's for sure.

She stops when Axel the Typhlosion walks into view. Training time? Don't we all love some training time! Xion goes into a stance until Axel fires a spurt of bright, hot flames at her. Dodge roll, then she swings at his chest, but obviously makes sure she misses on purpose. She doesn't want to hurt him.

A minute or two of this passes, and somehow, Bahamut the Gible scampers into view. He bumps into the back of Xion's leg, making her stumble slightly, distracting her enough that she can't stop Axel from swiping her wooden Keyblade out of her hand. Clattering to the side and out of reach, Xion only has a few moments before Axel swipes at her again. Guess what happens when you take a Keyblade out of their wielder's hand? Especially when she can't summon it back...

No hand-to-hand experience, either. She tries to block the blow, but then he just... headbutts her. Bearing in mind Bahamut is still behind her, she tries to fall where she doesn't squish him.

Thud.

Xion: 0 | Axel: 1

She lets out a shuddering sigh, maybe a bit frustrated, but not at Axel or anything. At least Bahamut walked out unscathed as he comes up to her face and licks her cheek, but she doesn't move herself from the sandy floor. ]

I need to change this.

[ Seeing all this, Bell thinks the spectacle's over and shuts the feed. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Undoubtedly. With as many children as you want, and hopefully your Pokémon, too.

I-I don't know about children... [ Sheepish grin. Children? What? ]

You'll change your mind in a few years. Mark my words.

Come on, Cecil... I don't even know how such things start out.

[ SOMEONE HASN'T GIVEN HER "THE TALK." ]

...Ask an older woman, if you wish to know. They'd be more likely to know the... female specifics.

[Having to give the talk to Ceodore was bad enough, thank you.]

But why can't you explain it?

Well, it's- You see- ...Do you know the physical differences between boys and girls, at least?

[...He'll need one hell of a drink, after this.]

Well, yeah. [ A pause. A long one. ] ... I actually never thought much about them. Why?

Those differences are necessary to have children in the first place.

[A beat.]

I cannot believe I have to do this again.

... Uh, if you want, I could just ask another female, then.

[ E-Embarrassed. orz ]

...It's fine. Everyone has to learn about it someday; besides can you think of anyone you could walk up to and ask directly?

[ Well, she's more embarrassed that she's putting Cecil through something uncomfortable... but he does have a point. ]

Wait, am I supposed to be secretive about it?

Not quite secretive, but... Certain people are uneasy with the subject, especially in public, as it'S seen as a very private matter. Thus, it's better to ask someone you can trust and who would feel at ease about it.

But why is it a private matter? It's just our differences.

...Because gender differences have found themselves inseparably connected with sex, and sex is indeed a private matter. It has been like this since long before either of us were born.

We're talking about sex? [ Pause. ] Isn't that our gender?

Sex is a word for both gender and the... act necessary to have children, which would be you the two concepts are often linked.

[ Absorbing, absorbing, processing... So the parts that make them men and women are used to make children? She wonders how that works. ]

So what do you do during sex?

...One moment, please.

[He goes offscreen for about a minute, before returning with a glass of- water. Definitely just water.]

You see, boys are relatively key-shaped, and girls are relatively keyhole-shaped. What do you do with keys and keyholes?

[ She eyes that glass. Looks like he just went out for water. The question makes her blink several times, though. ]

You put the keys into the key... holes?

Exactly, but in this case you must do so while at least-

[Big gulp of 'water'.]

-partially unclothed.

What's wrong with clothes?

In this particular case, they would both restrain access and rub uncomfortably. Doing it fully clothed is possible, but usually rather less enjoyable.

But you're just putting a key into a keyhole, right?

[ Thank you, Cecil. Thank you. ]

[...DOWNING THAT GLASS.]

The key and the keyhole are merely metaphors for the necessary bodyparts.
