Turn that frown upside down [Video/Action]
[It had a pretty simple beginning. ...Okay, maybe not simple. Silver needed a distraction. Badly. And Ingo was a rather comfortable and effective person to serve as a distraction. Of course, Silver wasn't consciously aware of this at the time. If he had to be asked why he would go to Ingo at his time of need of a distraction, he'd honestly say that he wasn't sure.
But there he was, spending time with Ingo. Nothing too heavy, just some casual conversation. Of course, some casual conversation with Ingo... Led to a question about a certain rumor about his face. Namely, the fact that Ingo always frowned. Was his face really stuck that way? Silver had to know. Of course, when Ingo confirmed that it was false, he needed proof. What, is it comfortable to frown like that? Yes didn't quite seem like a legitimate answer, so...

Silver took on the task of finding the answer through firsthand face experience.
Which left the obvious "if you can smile, why don't you?" ...But Ingo does not simply smile. Of course, there's gotta be some way to get him to smile. Which is where everyone else comes in.
So Silver heads to his journal and flicks on the video. Both he and Ingo are present.

He has a harmless and innocent enough question, if a stupid one. And an awkward one.]
So what's a good way to get someone to smile?
[Feeling the need to provide context, Ingo adds his piece, albeit awkwardly.]

Silver is attempting to get me to smile, you see-- ah, it's a little unnatural... But he'd like to make the endeavor.
[Which adds on to the initial awkward, so Silver adds a little more to the table.]
It's a long story.
[Once that's sufficiently awkwardly dealt with, it's off to go find something that can make the two of them smile by walking around... Well, everywhere.

The frowns never leave their faces. There are a lot of conversations about trains, subways, and Pokémon. Puns are included. Do you dare to take a ride on the super double frown subway? It's quite the challenge and it takes quite some time to make it to the next station.]
[SO HEY, A RIDICULOUS AND LIGHTHEARTED POST. Ingo is present! Tagging order is You--> Ingo --> Silver.]

Pre-Post(...network post) Thread
Anyway.
Ingo sure seems to hang out in his apartment a lot! At least that makes it easy for Silver to find him, though-- like he's doing right now. That was a knock on the door, right?]
...Silver. [You look.... worn out. A little. Ingo'll hold the door open for him to come in.]
hell yeah
Hi. [Oh god what does he say. Worn out? Yeah, just a little. But that's a pretty constant state of being.]

Unnatural? Perhaps uncommon, maybe, but I wouldn't say it's an unnatural taste to see someone with a serious disposition smile...in fact, [and this comment seems to be directed towards Ingo, specifically, as he points to him] I know that I've seen you smile before quite a few times...
[Though come to think of it, Cilan can't quite recall if he's ever seen Ingo smile that much at all since having arrived here. At first he thought it was just because of being stuck here without Emmet, but...] ...Aha, well. Back when we were in Unova, at least.

Sophie follows the two of them, only a few feet behind, wearing an identical frown on her face.]

There's also a route to a small town called Anville where the trans are taken off the lines for repairs or replacemen-- ...ah...
[There's a small girl following us. U..h...]

You can't force a natural smile.
[IT'S JUST NOT EASY FOR SOME PEOPLE - don't worry Ingo, cocky smirks aside, Green knows that feel.]

You don't want to see a forced Ingo smile. Really.]

...Well, it certainly isn't a sure-fire thing, but I suppose you could always try jokes.
[...GIOVANNI...]
no subject
I... suppose that depends on the kind of humor. [Jokes are kind of a shot in the dark, and Ingo's sense-of-humor target is very small if existent at all....]

I'm assuming you've smiled at least once in your life, given you used the term "unnatural" instead of "impossible".
