Can you figure out why Ethan's marill has this name

[ducttaped]

[Ethan is running through Levanta Town with a worried look on his face, looking in trash cans, under stairwells, and into every nook and cranny he can find. While he searches, he's calling as loudly as he can without attracting too many glares from the townsfolk.]

Marbles? Marbles, where are you? I told him to stay put...!


[[ooc: this place is too dead, let's fix that ;_;! Dear mods, how do I tag? This is an AU gameverse-sort-of Ethan ;_; do I use "game: ethan" or something else? Thanks in advance!]]

[That Marill is adorable. Red tucks his head into his shirt, attempting to muffle a snicker.]

Sure. [He gets up and starts cracking knuckles.]

Glad we could help. [Swinub skitters over to Ethan, tilting his head.]

It was nice meeting you. [Spoink gives a curt bow, then heads towards the wreckage.]

[Tepig looks at Red, after Ethan, pleadingly.] Huh, wait, there's no celebration? A toast in order...a morsel...Guys, come now...stop them...err, did we even get your name now that I think about it?

surprise, I'm not dead /wraps thread up

[Ethan smiles a little at the three pigs as he returns Marbles to his poke ball, then kneels down to their level.] Nice meeting you guys, too. [To Tepig:] Oh, you're hungry? You should have said something! I don't have much, but... [He digs in his pack and finds five only-slightly-squashed berries, handing them to the pigs.] Here. Thanks again.

[Ethan stands.] Oh! Sorry. I'm Ethan, from New Bark Town in Johto. I'll see you guys again, all right?

[And with a final wave over his shoulder, he trots off.]

Oh I'm not that--[Free food! Swinub takes one out of courtesy, but he's not too thrilled with the appearance, leaving Tepig to devour the rest.

Scarfing down.] T-Thanks!

[Swinub passing through to help Spoink in straightening out a crate.] 'Course.

[Red brushes past Ethan lightly on Spoink's beckon to fix the wreck. He flashes a toothy grin at the boy, not saying another word.]
