Hi, everyone. I have this friend who lives with me, and... well, he's been more upset than usual. I talked to him yesterday, and he just told me that it's the time of year that's bothering him.

I didn't mean to snoop, but... well, he did mark it on the calendar, and--well, his birthday's on the eighteenth, and I think that's part of what's bothering him. A really big part. So I thought maybe... maybe I'd throw a birthday party to make him feel better! But it probably wouldn't be a very good party if it were just me and him, and I'm not entirely sure what to do for him either.

So... I thought I'd ask you guys! Any ideas would be great, and if you want to come, please tell me! I really want to make this a birthday Silver will remember in a good way.

Silver? ... Red hair, Pokémon trainer, kind of a jerk?

[sketchingideals]

Well, I'm not sure he's really a jerk. I think he's a nice person underneath everything. He's just rough around the edges!

But the other two traits are dead on.

[sketch_m_all]

Well, there's two Silvers in Luceti. I haven't really talked to the other one, but I'm pretty sure he's nicer than the Silver I know. They both look alike and they're both Pokémon trainers, so it can get pretty confusing.

[sketchingideals]

There's really two? [...] Well, the Silver I know... does have his moments, I can admit that. But he really helped me out when I got really depressed after the experiment in February, so I know he has to care more than he lets on. He wouldn't have tried otherwise, right?

[Even though he's STILL wearing the damn bracelet.]

[sketch_m_all]

Yeah, that's right! I'm sure he's a nice guy. He just needs to try a bit harder. Either way, you can count me in for a party.

Isn't Silver's birthday in December...?

[Of course, she's thinking of the wrong Silver. But yeah.]

[video]

[sketchingideals]

[Confusion, it happens now.]

Are you sure? But the calendar...

[video]

[moehealer]

[All the confusion..]

Y-yeah! We even threw him a party a few months ago for it...

[video]

[sketchingideals]

[...blinkblink.]

A few months ago? But he just arrived in January, didn't he?

[video]

[moehealer]

[...uhhh.] No.. Silver's been here for even longer than I have--

[..Wait. Waaait. There's another Silver here, isn't there? She remembers meeting one around January...] Um... I don't think we're talking about the same Silver...

[seiriald]

... But Silver's birthday has already passed. [She may have some difficulty keeping up with the date, but she's pretty sure it's not December.]

going with the assumption that jeb's already talked to tracey and yellow. that okay?

[sketchingideals]

Well, there are apparently two Silvers...

that's fine!

[seiriald]

[... This she has to hear, because unless there is a strange shift of time happening that shouldn't be possible.] No there aren't, there's only one Silver.

[sketchingideals]

Are you sure? I was told there was another one aside from the one that lives with me... [This is so confusing!]

[seiriald]

... You mean a guy who just so happens to have the same name? Because I live with someone named Silver, too. [There are some people who have that problem in the village, aren't there?]

[tsuntrader]

[...] Huh?

1/3

[sketchingideals]

[...w-what?!]

2/3

[sketchingideals]

O-Oh, Silver! You weren't supposed to see this! I-I mean, I don't mean that in a bad way, it's just that I wanted to make sure you had a happy birthday and--please don't get upset, this really wasn't malicious and--

3/3

[sketchingideals]

[--but wait! There's two Silvers in Luceti!]

Oh... are you the other Silver? I'm sorry, I guess I panicked a little.

[tsuntrader]

...It's fine, it's no big-

You really live with that guy? You can put up with him that much? [Does not compute, does not compute-]

[sketchingideals]

[Hey, hey. Don't say that about his friend!]

He's really not that bad, just a little rough around the edges. He doesn't like it when I make sure he eats and all, and he does have his moments, but sometimes he can really be nice to have around! [Then again, Jeb is the same person who feels Mithos is justified for being angry with him. The kid must have a high tolerance for assholery when it's aimed at him by people he cares about.]

[mischiefbreeder]

[Silver's birthday? That can't be the case... Some other Silver, maybe?]

Silver? Red hair, has Pokémon, kind of a punk, that Silver?

[sketchingideals]

[There's so many people who missed the 'lives with me' part... but that must be Jeb's fault. He had been nervous when he made the post, after all.]

Yes! ...but we're still probably thinking of different Silvers.

[mischiefbreeder]

Don't be so quick to assume. I know which Silver you're talkin' about.

[sketchingideals]

I'm sorry! I didn't mean to...!
