school's out forever

As the elderly among us have realized, most of us seem to be underage. Since that's the case, I have a question regarding my education.

I'm not quite sure what to do without highschool. The concerns of reaching graduation aside, my days seem emptier without the responsibilities I had back home. Time passes much slower when I can only spend it on hobbies. And it's frustrating knowing that looking for a job would be pointless due to our apparent invisibility to normal people.

(Which is ridiculous, by the way.)

To be blunt, it's stressing me out. Apparently. My shinki noticed it enough to point it out. They even threatened me if I didn't write this.

So let me know if you have an answer. I'm obviously at a loss. Please also let me know if you have any excess paperwork. At least I know that soothes me.

Right. Different wildlife.

That's one of my puppies. (Puppies are young dogs.)

Anyway, that's a relief. It'd be worrying if you were in constant danger within your own temple. Still, you should put up signs around the water in case you have unsuspecting visitors. That way if they provoke the fish (should I call them Pokemon?) enough to hurt themselves you can deny liability.

I had something like that too. There aren't any living around the temple, the shore's not their natural habitat, but he was bigger and fluffier. Probably had bigger teeth!

[He'd be lying if he said he didn't kinda enjoy people's reactions to his Pokemon. He knew what he was doing, showing off the Sharpedo first.]

"Pokemon" for us is pretty much like "animals" for you. They're all Pokemon, there's just a million different types. I'd toss out anyone who messed with the wild ones here, but signs are probably still a good idea. Keep people from feeding them junk, too.

Like a wolf? [wolf.jpg]

[This is just turning into animal hour.]

Oh, that reminds me!

Do you know what would be junk? Outside of the obvious things like junk food and processed garbage, I mean. I don't have many aquatic animals but I've been trying my best not to disrupt my animals' natural diet. Unfortunately, I'm not very experienced in animal care. I've just been relying on internet articles.

Kinda like that, yeah!

A lot of that depends on what exactly you've got. In general though, you don't really wanna feed them any human food, even if it ain't junk. Fish aren't picky, but that doesn't mean you oughta let them eat whatever. A lot of them'll eat seaweed, or plankton.

These guys here feed themselves, but I fed my Sharpedo raw fish. Don't give them live food if they're not used to that though.

That's a relief. If it's like that then I think I might be handling it right.

Although... if it's supposed to be natural, does that mean I should stay away from leaving the food concentrated in certain spots? Like a trough. Would that be trouble?

... Thinking about it now, it might be easier if I could just show you.

I can swing by and have a look if you want! I've taught plenty of folks to raise Carvanha before.

[And his fish sound less temperamental overall, so it's a win-win!]
