[The feed is showing Lea's back for a few minutes here, where he's sitting out on the roof of the Goldenrod department store. It's hard to tell what he's doing for a few minutes, until a bar of ice cream can be seen sticking out of his mouth when he turns his head. Quirking a smile at the cameramon of the evening, he pulls the treat out and motions for the pokemon to come closer.]

C'mere, Isa.

[Making a little flare, the fire type sets the gear down on the roof, showing up at the ledge, before hopping up there herself and seating next to her trainer. It almost seems like he's not going to do anything about the gear recording and just let it time out quietly, but after a few minutes of silence, he speaks out loud.]

So, anyone listening? Do you know why sunsets are mostly red?

[ wow. don't you look familiar. ]

Why are sunsets mostly red?

[friendyousohard]

[Uh oh, Lea. You just mentioned two of Twilight's favorite things. The sun, and science.]

Because of the way light travels. The visual spectrum of light is split up into several colors, which you can see when a rainbow's formed or you use a prism. Of those colors, red is the one with the longest wavelength, so it lasts the longest as the sun sinks over the horizon.

At least, that's the simplest explanation.

It doesn't matter why they're red. All that matters is that they look nice.

[Roxas isn't quite sure why he's doing this. He knows it's going to cause a bunch of memories and probably an emotional pileup, but he figures he might as well.]

It's because of the light waves. Red goes the furthest.

[Oh! He remembers this from high school and college.]

If the sun you know or the one here are anything like the one in my world, it's because the sun is at a lower angle when setting, and the space in which electromagnetic waves travel is increased. It's red because this is the color that has the longest wavelength, as opposed to blue which has a shorter wavelength-- which is why the sky is blue during the day.

[Rikku, after a few small delays, finally got to Goldenrod. She saw Lea's post, and she goes to find him]

Because they're pretty that way?

[video]

[darkenedgales]

Dunno, probably something scientific 'bout light and shit?

[... He's never been in school of any kind, so it's probably some sort of miracle he knows that much.]

Whatever makes it look that way, 's really pretty.

[avianweapon]

Probably because the sun's yellow, and it goes the spectrum between that, orange, and red before the night begins.

[...At least, that's what Peacock thinks. Still, there's a chuckle from the other end.]

Are ya asking because you wonder? Or are ya asking a rhetorical question?

[video]

[marimbagirl]

I'm afraid I don't. Perhaps some trick of the light disappearing?

[Not quite an answer, but perhaps it's enough to excuse her own uncertain question.]

-is it quite safe up there?

[sometimesooc]

[ The video flickers on and a girl starts to say something, but is interrupted briefly by her Sableye jumping up and licking the screen. After she gets it clean (the video is still on during this), she smirks and speaks her "evil" laughter. ]

Kukuku, sunsets are red because as the sun falls the time of the vampires arises and the sky reflects the blood to be spilled~

... that's...

[That question ):]
