Rating: G unless Elliot gets really upset about the party

The surprise party for Elliot's birthday was probably one of the worst-kept secrets in the household, especially given how much cooking Gilbert had to do to prepare for it, but he'd done his best not to let Elliot know what was going on. And now the day has arrived, and the whole household has been invited, along with any of Elliot's friends. Does Elliot have any friends

The house is open to any and all guests, and there's plenty of food, tea, and cake for everyone. Come in and mingle and say hi to the birthday boy! He won't really hurt you. Promise.

Really, you were— it's a normal thing where you're from?

[moehealer]

Not completely... there are just a few kids from the Viridian Forest like me who get that. [Very few. And unfortunately, one of them didn't exactly put that power to a good use.]

[chainedraven]

You didn't have to do anything special to get that ability? It just... happened?

[moehealer]

Anything special? Um... nope! I just got it. And I can hear the thoughts of Pokémon like Chuchu, too.

[And she sees nothing surprising about this. She normally wouldn't be talking so openly about it buuut... if he's Elliot's brother, then there shouldn't be a problem with it!]

[chainedraven]

[Gilbert gives Chuchu a mildly puzzled look at that.]

Oh. I... see.

[Sort of. But not really. But that's all right. He remembers his manners again after a moment and inclines his head with somewhat stiff formality.]

Well, thank you for coming. And I hope you're enjoying the party.

[moehealer]

[It's okay, Gil. Plenty of people are confused about it as is. But anyway, Yellow smiles and nods.]

You're welcome! I was really happy to be invited, and I am enjoying it so.. thank you for having me here, Gilbert!

[chainedraven]

I didn't think Elliot... knew a lot of people here.

[moehealer]

Oh, really? How come? [Elliot seems so nice though! Who wouldn't want to know him?!]

[chainedraven]

Well, he's... er.

He tends to keep to himself, a lot of the time.
