## SSEC 54 - Do You?

Eve is seen sitting above Dusk while he plays with his 3DS, and unexpectedly asks him if he loves her.

Dusk suspensefully grabs a teary Eve, and tells her that he was too busy playing his "love of his life", his New New 3DS.

## SSEC 56 - Idiot!!!

Eve screams at Dusk, calling him an idiot (hence the title) before running away. A confused Dusk then asks Biscuit what happened, but Biscuit doesn't know either.

## SSEC 57 - Clef

Clef tells Eve how to win her love. Eve doubts, and Clef tells her to wait and watch. Clef proudly kills a Rattata, to which a distressed Eve asks why he murdered a Pokemon, and Oliver double facepalms.

* This is Clef's first appearance in the SSEC.

## SSEC 58 - Adam

Adam rises from the bush and looks at Clef, then at the dead Rattata. He shrieks a "REPENT!" at Clef.

* This is Adam's first appearance in the SSEC.

## SSEC 59 - Oliver Shield!

Adam uses Charm, asking Eve what Clef had done. Eve uses Oliver as a shield, causing Adam to be disgusted. Adam then splashes them with his "holy water" before running away. Oliver sobs that nobody likes him, and Eve apologizes.

## SSEC 60 - Jackpot

A bored Blizz walks past a magazine left on the grass when he notices it. He picks it up, then realizes that it is the "Limited Edition Copy of the New Millennium Playpoke Magazine Espeon x Umbreon January 2000 Johto New Years Special" Flame was looking for in <insert title here>. He then blushes, while saying "Jackpot!".

## SSEC 61 - Secret Stash!

Blizz believes that the "Limited Edition Copy of the New Millennium Playpoke Magazine Espeon x Umbreon January 2000 Johto New Years Special" is from Flame's secret stash. Blizz finds himself lucky, before a dark shadow (Flame) asks what Blizz has got.

## SSEC 62 - Fight!!!!!

Flame is seen on top of Blizz burning and pulling Blizz's flaps, surrounded in water. Blizz refuses to give Flame the magazine, citing that he had found it first. Flame threatens to bite his tail if Blizz refuses to comply, which the latter immediately does, and they start punching. Flame shouts that Blizz got the magazine wet, Blizz denies, Flame denies Blizz's denial, and Blizz denies Flame's denial to Blizz's denial to making the magazine wet. Christian, Leo, Shiko and Drik are seen in the background cheering. Unbeknownst to them, Dusk had swapped the magazine out at the last second. Cost asks Dusk if he was going to stop the fight, to which he says no.

## SSEC 63 - RUN AWAY!

Blizz notices Dusk has the magazine, while Cost leaves. With a foaming mouth, Blizz starts to chase Dusk, to which Flame yells at him not to. Dusk runs away, Flame and Blizz chasing Dusk, Flame calling Blizz an idiot, to which Blizz calls Flame an idiot.

## SSEC 64 - Count down!

Flame and Blizz are seen in a field of daisies. Flame asks where Dusk had gone, while Blizz tells Flame to leave no flower unturned. Dusk, in a tree, starts to count down from 5 to 1 while Blizz and Flame trample on the daisies. At the count of 1, a spade is seen falling to the grass. Blizz and Flame notice Daisy, and Flame tells her that it isn't what it seems, to which Blizz says the opposite of Flame's, while Daisy cries, before going mad and the panel shifts to Dusk in the tree. Off-panel screaming can be heard, and Dusk wonders why he took the Playpoke magazine, feeling bored.

## Meanwhile 6

After picking some berries, Sora self-compliments as being useful. He/She notices something and realises it was not a Bug type. Suddenly, a Leafeon jumps over him/her and lands. It is revealed that the Leafeon was Agent Lea, Sora realising she smells like Night.

## Trivia

* In SSEC 59, it is revealed that Adam hates Oliver and is disgusted by him, possibly because Oliver tends to be gay for other Eevees and Dusk.
* SSEC 61 is the first comic to show Flame's eyes glow. Flame's eyes glow yellow here when he is mad. This is later changed to glow orange and activates when he is startled, scared, nervous or intimidated.
* SSEC 63 is the first comic to use the present day font for the comic header and title.
* Throughout the Meanwhile comic, Bug Type Pokemon can be seen in the background.
