Everyone's got a name or at least something close to it. But do you guys know what your names actually mean, or the reason you were given that name? We give pokémon names to set them apart, but does the way you name yours mean anything special? I just named this guy Lemon Twist since he reminds me of striped lemon candy.

[It’s been a boring day, for once Killua didn’t feel like doing something insane. Instead he’s just laying on his Dunesparce.]

It's interesting when you think about it: someone or you yourself has been given this word to identify by and it could have some really deep mean behind it. It could be something that a person thought sounded cute but in the end it's pretty sucky for you. For example, someone could have named their kid after a word that sounds cool yet it could mean horse-shit in the language its from.

I sort of lucked out with the way my parents named me and my siblings, but it has me wondering about everyone else. So tell me what your names mean.

[ A whole new world has opened up for Mimi. ]

Thank you, Killua-san! [ Possible fantasy dating scenarios: increased by 100%. ] Maybe I will date a girl someday!

[ Let's recap: this conversation has gone from name meanings, to assassination, to career choices, to the existence of multiple worlds, to discovering bisexuality. This sure has been a day. ]

If that's true then you really don't need to do much except for label where they come from. Unless they're stronger then other ones.

[venturesomely]

Your Dad?

[ HE'S IMAGINING AN ILLUMI 2.0 RIGHT NOW, DON'T MIND HIM. ]

[killer_sweets]

...Yes, my dad. I'm surprised you didn't run into home when you guys came to get me. He was home at the time.

[No no, there is thankfully only one Illumi and no others. ]

[killer_sweets]

Good for you. You still need to find a girl you like though.

[These are normal topic transitions when you talk to Killua. ]

[pipers_son]

Sometimes they're the same thing. Definitely a way ta keep things interesting in the family. What're yer parents names, then?

[video]

[paladinlost]

They are, but very few people have had the opportunity to see that for themselves.

[France's eyebrows go up. He's suitably impressed.]

Most family businesses have a scion of sorts, but he must be quite up in age. You don't worry he's going to fall behind on the times?

[sincereheart]

Maybe I will find one! Or a boy! In fact, maybe there already is someone I like! But that's a secret, hmm~? [ Mimi winks and puts a finger to her lips. ]

All the pokemon that try them seem to think they're awesome if it any indication. The evo-gummies is just one of the pokemon only items in our shop..

[killer_sweets]

Ahhh well you might want to mark them done anyway just in case.

[killer_sweets]

As long as it's not me or Gon I wont pry, I'm already taken after all~

[killer_sweets]

My dad's named Silva and my mom is Kikyo.

That's not much of a problem, my family normally abilities take out a target even without extra power from nen. So he's fine honestly.

It's more of a problem when advancements make things too convoluted.

[codpieces]

Shit . . . Can y'all hook this motherfucker up sometime?

[pipers_son]

Ah, no match there. What a shame.

[Video]

[francia]

[France frowns slightly, not understanding.]

What do you mean by advancements? Technological, or...?

[Video]

[killer_sweets]

Technological, one of the big brothers is a super tech head and a bit of a shut in. So he'll come up with all sort of crazy inventions to do tasks for him. However he doesn't think about the end the goal, so the process gets super complicated and fairly stupid by the end.

[paladinlost]

...For both moons, to be safe, even if the Red Moon is still gone.

[venturesomely]

[ Shakes his head ] I've only met Alluka, and your older brother.

[video]

[styxiedust]

I'd be honored to be considered part of his family, just as I'm honored to be considered part of yours, Kil.

[Video]

[francia]

So, he's a true inventor-type: concepts beyond the end of the world but something of a space case?

[France chuckles.]

I know a few people like that.

[Video]

[killer_sweets]

Yep, that's Milky in a nutshell.

Do those people have superiority complexes as well?

[video]

[sincereheart]

Oh, don't worry! I wouldn't dream of splitting up a happy couple! Plus, you're a little old for me, you know? [ She smiles teasingly. ]
