accidental video/action for Team Rocket Base

[The video posted on the network isn't very clear. It's hazy and it's filmed from a bad angle. It's not a very nice film. You might want to look away from it.

Unless you're interested in the words you're hearing.]

What is this place and how do I get out of here?

I-I don't know! You're asking the wrong guy! [There's a small yelp-like sound.] Don't hurt me!

Really? Then who should I be asking?

I don't know! How many times do I have to say that!

Tch. [There's a loud thud and someone who looks like a Rocket Grunt appears on the screen for a while before getting up and running away. It's then when the owner of the gear notices the device and picks it up. He doesn't point it to his face - instead you can see a Purrloin.]

Looks like any of the guys here aren't off help. How about any of you?

[He puts the video out after that question.]

(ooc: The poor guy here is a Team Rocket NPC who happened to come across Ikuto when he was searching for people he could ask questions from.)

[She could ask the same from you, you know.]

Who knows. Where are you? I --

[... Oh, hey. He wasn't alone on that video...]

[Not just that, there was a Rocket on that video.

OH SHI--

No way. He's in...?]

[No. No no no no no no no no, oh fucking hell no. Johto, you're kidding right?

Chances of destroying someone if she ever finds out that someone brought them here and placed them into Team Rocket? Very likely!

~~Shhhh, it doesn't matter if it's impossible.~~]

[...Deep breath in, calming down and collecting herself. No more freaking out on video even if it's private.]

Where are you? We're ...in the same city, so I'll give you answers in person, okay?

[She's in the same city... did that mean she was part of the same "team" or was it just a coincidence?]

I'm at a base or something like that. I haven't left this place yet.

Okay, good. [Or well, not so good, but chances of finding him easily are good.]

The door out of there is [insert location here, and imagine that she just told it to you.], I'll wait there.

[unless you won't come to meet her, then she'll come looking for you! >|]

Edited (forgot to change icon, orz) 2013-01-21 05:06 (UTC)

[Ikuto thinks for a while. While meeting Utau might be a bad thing, everything considered, they seem to be stuck in this place together... so it would be good to be with the people you knew, right?]

Alright.

[He puts the Pokegear away and makes his way to the exit.]

[He'll get an angelic smile at the end of the video.]

[She'll really be there, waiting for him and to his ~~pleasant~~ surprise, she won't give him a hug attack right away. Then again, Utau always used to avoid contact whenever they weren't alone in the Easter building and she hell sure doesn't trust that they're alone right now.

But she's still smiling, in a non creepy, angelic way to him. But the Espeon near her looks curious, there's a Beautifly lazying between her pigtails, two Ninetales sitting near - and one of them looks devilish...]

Ikuto ... [wait a sec, she's using all of her acting skillz to not tacklehug you.] ...Where do you want to go? Are you hungry? Are you tired? I guess those clothes are a little cold here...

[Deep breath in. She can't lose it here, not right now.

Oh, and that Purrloin who's following him? It'll be greeted by two cotton candy birds, who seem to be in a playful mood... Until they use Sing on it. Oh dear, forgive them Purrloin ~~it was all planned just for you~~, they are just songbirds and love singing so much and they're young, they don't remember the effect yet.]

Edited 2013-01-21 21:37 (UTC)

[He's not sure if getting greeted by an army of odd creatures is any better, but he'll live.

The amount of questions is about as much as he expected. He shrugs at them.]

I guess I'm a little hungry.

[His eyes travel to look at the two birds and the Purrloin falling asleep.] Hmm?

[They could be weirder, those are probably the most normal looking creatures from her team... But that's not the point, is it?

She wants to ask even more, but she'll save that for later.]

I guess we could go to the Department store then.

[She's going to get you some winter clothing and you can't say no to it!

Glance to the cat. Time for half-excuses.] Hmm, I guess those two don't remember that their Sing attack puts the target to sleep. I don't have any awakenings, so you'd better just call it back.

[She'll call the birds back now, and it's a little too crowded here, so calling back the normal-looking Ninetales too.]

Alright. [He'd just trust Utau on this because he has no idea what this place is like or where he should head first.

The same thing with the Pokémon, since he's never touched that stuff. So he'll call the Purrloin back.] So there are attacks like that.

[It's why he got the live example of calling them back~.]

Mm, there are attacks like that and many others. ...And the amount of those has gone up by hundreds, I don't think anyone really knows the real count here.

[...Her heart really needs to stop racing as if it's going to jump out... Fine okay, she'll try to calm it down by walking ahead of him. He'd follow. He wants answers and trusts her. Of course he'll follow.]

This is Goldenrod. We are in the middle of the region called Johto, you can take a train to Kanto from here.

[At least she's trying to act like a mature girl here!]

How much did you hear from the network by now?

[He'll need a lot of teaching, that's for sure. Especially since he never really played the games - only heard of them.]

Something about being stuck in a different world that we can't get out of and that time stops in ours when we're here. That, and the fact everyone who's native is obsessed with Pokémon.

[She'll teach him~ now when she knows a lot about stuff after being here for more than six months.]

The background music never stops, except maybe when there are music performances or at least it's... More quiet during those. Some people have been here for more than two years and there's no way out - not even on some weird weekends which we forget, except I think I remember using Il's powers here... So, no way out.

Sometimes people disappear and it's assumed they go back home, there's no any sign of it before it happens and basically it can just happen in a blink of an eye -- or so. I haven't really seen it happening to anyone I know, so...

[Shrug.]

[He was wondering a bit about the music. It's not really the most pleasant one of them all, after all. Actually, it's somewhat annoying when it just repeats itself.

Speaking of Il...]

Our Charas aren't here with us, so I assume that we can't use any of our abilities either?

[Just talking about random stuff, because she doesn't plan to tell him about time stuff right now. She'll get to that later.]

Yeah, we can't. This place takes all the powers away from everyone and... Even if they were here, this place would transform them into humans. It does that to everyone who is not human.

[That earns a silence as Ikuto is trying to imagine Yoru as a human...

Excuse him, he'll chuckle at the image.]

[...Excuse her, turning around and ...

Watching and hearing him chuckle at whatever it is, feels amazing, okay? Yes!]

[He'll look at Utau with a small smile, even though it's a fading one.]

Just though about Yoru...

[He'll get a big smile back while she's trying to keep her self control in... Well, in full control, as much as she is tempted to rush into him for a hug.]

There's a Pokémon that looks like him a bit... Maybe. If you use your imagination well enough.

[She'll look for Luxray from her pokedex and shows it to Ikuto.

Shrug.] At least he was my first thought when I saw it's first evolution.

[...Which doesn't even look like Yoru, but it was a cat and she was in a strange world, it sums that situation up pretty well.]

Hmm... it might be too fierce to be him, but you're right. It does resemble him a bit. [A blue cat-like Pokémon. What else would it remind them of?]

That form of it can see through walls. Very useful~.

[Except not so much if she was about to use it for anti-TR stuff, but...]

But you're right, it's much too fierce to be Yoru. Not on the first evolution, but the two after that...

[She'll put the dex back into her pocket and opens the door to the Department Store.]

Edited 2013-01-24 10:53 (UTC)

So it makes a good watch-Pokémon, if you don't want uninvited guests.

[Yoru was sometimes good for that too, except not really.

Ikuto looks around at the Department Store. Sure is a big store.]

Even better if you combine it with a psychic type, they can literally talk to you with telepathy here.

[Were there psychic types in the early games? She doesn't know, and she's honestly pretty much used to them here by now anyways, so she doesn't even think about it too much.

Dia the Espeon glances at Ikuto while Utau says that, but he might be too busy looking at the place to notice it.

The girl turns to look at him with a smile on her face.]

What do you want to eat? There's pretty much everything here.

[So it's like going to one of these things back home too.

Oh, and it's more like this smile, really:

~~but where are all my screencaps of older utau with that smile when I need them~~]

[Ikuto does notice the Espeon looking at him. One of those psychic types... at least she looks like one.

Though he looks at Utau after hearing the question.]

Anything goes. I don't have cravings for anything special right now.
