[Sup, Johto! Jake looks extremely happy and pleased with himself. So does Stripes the Zebstrika, posing with his head held high.]

Well, I just got my first badge in Johto!

[Now he looks sheepish.]

Though, I don't think Gym Leader Falkner really appreciated how it all went. Eheh....

[Stripes snorts and looks like he could take on anybody. Someone got an ego boost after a successful gym battle.]

What's the second gym like, now that I'm thinking of it? I've only heard that the Goldenrod City gym has...some issues.

[PRIVATE TEXT TO DAVE STRIDER]

[Now, Jake's dumb, but he's not stupid. He thinks he can understand that after Bro left, Dave might be a wreck. He'd be the same way if Jade had left like that.]

Mr strider i have a query for you!
Are you up for a sparring match?
Im absolute shite with a sword or anything resembling a blade but im good at unarmed combat if thats anything!

So...you're an Aries?

action;

[timelymaid]

Aries? [ She didn't catch the star sign chat with Eridan, whoops. ]

action;

[hoperaider]

It's a star sign common on my earth. One of twelve, in fact. The symbol looks like a ram, sort of.

action;

[timelymaid]

[ Twelve signs... ]

Can you draw it for me?

action;

[hoperaider]

Sure! Do you have pen and paper?

action;

[timelymaid]

[ Only always! Aradia will hand over her binder, flipped open to a blank page, and a red pen. ]

Here you go!

action;

[hoperaider]

Thanks!

[He quickly sketches out the Zodiac symbols, and circles the one for Aries.]

This is the Aries symbol.

action;

[timelymaid]

[ Well don't those look familiar! ]

That's my sign. And those others...it looks like everyone else's signs, actually.

[ GO FIGURE. ]

[hoperaider]

Eridan thought the same thing. He's picking a day the Aquarius sign falls under. You see, there are different day ranges that these signs appear. The date you're born on is in one of those ranges, and that will determine what sign you are. For example, December 1st is within the range for Sagittarius.

action;

[timelymaid]

Oh! What are the Aries ranges?

action;

[hoperaider]

March 21st to April 19th. [He grins.] So, that makes John and Jane Aries kids, too!

action;

[timelymaid]

Oh, really? I've never really met anyone who shared the sign of my ancestor.

[ Hmmm. ] Well, I'll pick a day between those days, then!

action;

[hoperaider]

Mmhm! I'm sure there are lots of Aries people running around.

Great, and we'll be sure to organize a party for you, too!

action;

[timelymaid]

I believe there are at least three April birthdays, so...Something in March!

[ She will just have to consider this for a few minutes. ] March 25th?

action;

[hoperaider]

Sounds good to me! We can tell the others about it.

action;

[timelymaid]

Maybe the next time I write, then!

[ Or the time after that. Because babies. ]
