[Temeraire is looking much more put together than he was the last time he was on the network. He's also gotten better at working the 'Gear.]

Excuse me, everyone, I have a question for the people who have been here longer.

[He turns the camera around behind him to show a Druddigon and a shiny golden Charmander. The Charmander looks to be pestering the Druddigon despite being a fraction of her size, with the Druddigon carefully batting it away every so often. Then the camera is back on Temeraire, who lowers his voice and looks a little worried.]

Neither of them have gotten any bigger. Shimmer has only just hatched, so it makes sense that she is still small, but Reliant is at least a few weeks old and has not grown at all. Is that normal for Pokemon?

[He thinks a moment before adding, more to himself although it's still clearly audible] There have not been any cows or sheep for them to eat, perhaps that is what's wrong.

[Then he's back to addressing the camera at a normal speaking volume, and smiling a little for good measure.] I would very much appreciate any help.

[The feed lasts a little bit longer while he looks for the off button, but apparently he finds it because it shuts off.]

[There's some confusion starting to enter his expression; he's getting the feeling that they're not talking about the same things here.]

[But it's not a strong enough feeling yet for him to, you know. Stop arguing and try to figure it out calmly.]

I do not see where humans came into it at all. I suppose some of them could be called monsters, yes, but that is still because they are unpleasant. It is what the word means.

You think all monsters are unpleasant?

I...

[He pauses, confusion starting to override his irritation.]

I am starting to wonder if we are talking about the same sort of thing at all.

[The short and easily understandable version would be something like 'monsters are people too'.]

Some humans are unpleasant too. That doesn't mean they all are.
