[ Right square in the middle of Cherrygrove City, Snake is staring down his Torkoal, Boss, who appears to have... something... in his mouth. It looks square-shaped, and it's glimmering somewhat in the sunlight. The old soldier takes a hesitant step forward. ]

C'mon, Boss... Don't do this.

[ Boss clamps his mouth tighter around the object, causing Snake to freeze up. ] No, don't! [ Aaand... gulp. The mysterious box is gone forever, swallowed by the large fire-tortoise. ]

....

[ Snake pulls out his Pokégear, creating a video post. ]

[ VIDEO ]

[ He looks a bit... nervous. ] Hey, uh... Say, hypothetically, that a Pokémon swallowed a ... hypothetical pack of cigarettes. Would that... hypothetical Pokémon be harmed in any way?

... Hypothetically.

........Bring that hypothetical Pokémon to the nurses. Bring that hypothetical Pokémon to the nurses right now.

[Preferably before it drops dead of simultaneous poisoning by a dozen chemicals.]

[otakon_geek]

Snake? Oh no.....I can't believe Boss ate those cigarettes. [Otacon is worried for both Snake and Boss.] Did you anger Boss in any way for him to eat your box of cigarettes? [He sighed.]

You'd better get Boss to the Poke Centre right away, Snake. I don't know what kind of damage a box of cigarettes will do to him.

That's a pretty specific hypothetical.

[It's a good thing he's not a generous person, or he'd offer to ~hypothetically~ read the thing's ~hypothetical~ mind and just ask it directly if it were feeling sour.]

What kind of thing are we talking about here?

[ She can't believe these questions sometimes! ]

Take that hypothetical pokemon to the Pokemon Center immediately!

That depends on what hypothetical type, this hypothetical pokémon is.

Are they American cigarettes?

[foolishwren]

... Depends.

Was the Pokemon a Trubbish?

If yes, then it's fine.

If no... uh. Go to a Pokemon Center.

Like, now.

When someone says hypothetical that many times...it's obviously not hypothetical at all, right...?

[voidedrogue]

Uhhhhh I would think so, dude. Why did you feed your poké cigs, anyway? I mean that's not exactly food, man.

_{[Henry looks a little strung out...but for a different reason.]}

You don't think that whole species likes to eat smokes, do you?

_{[Hiding them from HARRY was one thing...]}
