[The feed clicks on to a super imposed red eye. It’s narrowed in obvious and burning frustration, and there’s a quiet muttering o growls and curses in the backdrop. Finally, Retica holds the pokegear back, and the screen shows a more comprehensive look at the teen]

Someone better start giving me some answers, damn it! Is this some kind of trick? Where the hell am I? And what is that music?!

[He looks around, scowling at his surroundings like they personally offended him]

Besek’s never looked like this, not even the first stratum. I don’t care how I got here—I need to get back. I—I was so close. I know I was. I had to be. We were almost—

Nevermind. I’m getting out of here, even if no one else can help me.

[Shriaishi has to admit that he was a little startled. A little.

But since he can at least answer one of the questions, even if he's also new...]

We're apparently in a Pokémon world.

[waywardchild]

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

[kyoukashotennis]

It means we're in a completely different world... where you raise and catch Pokémon.

[waywardchild]

I still don't understand; what the hell is a pokemon?

[kyoukashotennis]

Simply to say they're animals and such with powers. Some can use fire, some earth and so on.

It's rude to interrupt somebody, you know.

[You might want to add "completely behind you" to that list of places you've been looking, because somebody's snuck up there to observe.]

Even if that somebody's yourself.

[OH MY GOD YOU DID NOT JUST SNEAK UP ON ME.]

What the hell are you talking about? Who are you? What the hell is going on here?

[HOW DID YOU SNEAK UP ON ME.]

[Chuckling, she throws her hands up in an "I'm innocent!" gesture.]

Hey, easy! Worry that much at once, you'll wear yourself out.

It's not like anything's known for sure here, anyway. You talk to the old guy? Oak, or whatever.

[action]

[waywardchild]

[Retica scowls, though deflates a little]

I haven't talked to anyone. Does this Oak person have any answers?

[action]

[usedperishsong]

Seems to think he does. Almost talked my ear off a few weeks back.

Anyway, what matters is you're here! It's not so bad if you don't mind the music. Or the occasional crippling thunderstorm.

[She herself has the remnants of a red nose from a cold.]

...

[A level stare]

Whatever, just take me to this Oak guy, and I'll make him give me some answers.

[She jerks a thumb in the direction of the lab.]

Serve yourself. He doesn't seem to have much better to do.

[A grin.]

Just go easy, all right? You better say "please"~
