❥ FIRST DRAGONSTONE | ACTION [NEW BARK TOWN] / VIDEO

[ ACTION (NEW BARK TOWN) ]


[Waking up in a strange world and being kicked out of the house you woke up in before you're fully awake is kind of weird. Nowi's still struggling to take in her surroundings as she leaves Mom's house. She's not used to getting up this early. "This early" is about ten in the morning, so it's not really early at all, but that's not the point. Nowi finally finds a nice patch of grass and flops down, lying on her back and stretching her arms above her head.]

Maybe I'll just get a little more sleep before I start that adventure or whatever...

[She should probably find the Shepards first though. Chrom will probably be annoyed that she's run off again. She doesn't recognize this place, but surely things will make sense eventually.

Nowi moves to push her hair out of her face only to come to a startling realization. She sits up immediately, reaching up to her ears.]


Wh-What!? What happened? Where are my ears!?

[Her ears aren't missing, they're just small. Instead of long, pointed ears, she's currently sporting human ones.]

How-- How did this happen!? What's going on!?

[Now that she's more awake and she's getting a better look at her surroundings, Nowi's beginning to tear up. Nothing here looks familiar. The buildings look completely foreign and not in the same way most of Valm looks foreign. They were last in a volcano, how did she get here? It isn't long before Nowi's in tears, rubbing her gloves across her eyes in a futile attempt to stop the tears.]

What's going on!?

[ VIDEO ]


[About an hour and a half later Nowi posts a video to the network. Well, it's probably not Nowi doing it, since she's not holding the 'Gear, but probably some poor sap she roped into helping her. The camera is angled down on her, which isn't really hard since she's so short.]

Hi! I'm not really sure how to start this, so I'll get to the point. I've been told that this is "Johto" or something, but I don't really care about that. I'm looking for a bunch of people! An army! We're called the Shepards and our leader-guy's name is Chrom, so if anyone's seen them, let me know!

[There's a pause while Nowi tries to remember what she was going to say. She tilts her head as she taps a gloved finger to her lips. It seems the cameraman (or camerawoman) has decided to keep the 'Gear focused on Nowi's torso, so you're not getting the full horribleness of her outfit. It's still pretty bad though. Yikes.]

Oh, right! I've got a question about my ears.

[She pushes her bangs back to show off her perfectly normal human ears.]

They're not supposed to be like this! They're like... long and pointy and stuff! They're really cute and not... tiny. These are human ears! I'm not a human!

[Way to just announce that, Nowi...]

And one more thing! What's this?

[She points to the ground and the camera pans down to show a Dratini curled up at Nowi's feet. She quickly hurries before the cameraman can say anything.]

Yeah, yeah, I know, a Pokémon or whatever, but that's not what I'm asking! Is it a dragon? It looks kind of like a dragon. It's kind of nice that someone gave me a dragon, but why was it in a ball? --Yeah, a Pokéball, that's not the point!

[She balls her hands into fists and stamps her foot as the camera moves to focus on her again.]

This is really annoying! What's going on around here? I was in a volcano last time I checked, so why am I here!?

[But as quickly as the anger comes it leaves her and Nowi sighs and folds her arms.]

Well, I guess that's all the questions I've got. So if you're listening and you've got some answers, let me know, okay? Thanks!

[And with that, the video ends.]

[...Nowi, that looks like thirty bucks, but still, that's a valid point...]

...Great, so we're probably ripping off some random lady's savings. Somebody needs an intervention.
nullorvoid: (UGH ♠ her fucking name is memine)

[personal profile] nullorvoid 2015-05-06 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think the crazy lady wants us to babysit her; she locks the damn door behind you when she shoves you out.
nullorvoid: (TCH ♠ maybe i just really hate your face)

[personal profile] nullorvoid 2015-05-06 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
How should I know? Apparently I'm supposed to breed the stupid things, and if that's not an awkward introduction to this place I don't know what is.
nullorvoid: (TILT ♠ is it gonna do a trick)

[personal profile] nullorvoid 2015-05-06 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
Well, someone's got to breed the pets or something, right?

[where the fuck is the logic train even going anymore]
nullorvoid: (BORED ♠ well whoop-de-shit princess)

[personal profile] nullorvoid 2015-05-06 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
...Yeah. Anyway, it doesn't look like there's anywhere to stay in this town, so I'm going to keep moving. See if there's somewhere that's...not this to get to.

So if you're going to come with, you'd better do it.

No.

[oh my god you seriously do not shut up, do you]

Manakete? I've never heard of that.

[It works for him! This way, he won't get found out.]

Uh, well, I don't think people taking over the world is entirely something you need to worry about. Not usually, anyway.

[There is Cobra, and that guy who apparently is trying to rival Cobra, but neither of them are actively trying to destroy the world.]

I think you're just supposed to get as many Pokemon as possible. That, and battle them. They're both something like national passtimes here.
irenicly: (♨ you're afraid cause she's got closer)

[personal profile] irenicly 2015-05-06 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Fortuntely, Banjou is very familiar with the first 150 Pokemon! He knows a lot about others now, too, of course, but he doesn't even hesitate when he says:]

Oh, that's Dratini, it's a dragon-type.
irenicly: (♨ you're afraid cause she's got closer)

[personal profile] irenicly 2015-05-06 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
I know a few more, but I don't know all of them.

[What types has he heard of here in Johto...?]

There's Salamence, Garchomp, Axew... I think Goomy's one, too.
friendyousohard: (Glasses: 20% more nerdy)

[personal profile] friendyousohard 2015-05-06 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, so you're a dragon! I was wondering. I knew a dragon back home, he was my assistant. I raised him from an egg.

[Ah, Spike. How she misses him.]

And yes, they are... which is really strange, because you're going to find that Pokemon don't tend to die in their fights here no matter what happens to them. The worst that happens is that they faint.
irenicly: your heart desired (♨ she stole everything)

[personal profile] irenicly 2015-05-06 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
[He'd talk more about Pokemon, but something about that catches his interest.]

You're a dragon?
friendyousohard: Unsure looking Twilight. (Erm... are you sure about this Pinkie?)

[personal profile] friendyousohard 2015-05-06 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, what? How do you not know where you came from? What about your parents?

[This is what happens when Twilight fails to think before she questions. Horrible insensitivity.]

Yeah, that would be miserable... especially since they really love to fight, or most of them do anyway, so I'd feel bad trying to stop them.
