First Transmission - Action for Nimbasa

[rcktfm]

[In a big city like Nimbasa, it wasn't a very difficult task to blend in with the crowds. White overshirt hidden at the bottom of his "Outsider Starter Kit" bag, Archer would've no doubt looked as though he belonged there if it weren't for the aforementioned bag.

Still, he didn't belong. It was a pretty big city and he had absolutely no idea how to navigate it. He could make a mental map with enough wandering around, but that would take an awful lot of time and could prove troublesome should he wander somewhere he shouldn't be with only a young Houndour on hand. But, if anyone else was as helpful as that old man at the...Entralink? Had been, then perhaps it wouldn't get to that point.

Curious puppy at his heels, Archer began actively examining his surroundings. Some wide-eyed bewilderment made him seem the picture definition of a fish out of water, the sort silently asking for someone to help with everything about their presence. He wasn't counting on help to save him from wandering, merely readying himself in case it should be offerred.]

A Battle Subway...? [Transportation all over the country, with a match while you wait. What a novel idea. He couldn't help but wonder about the fate of those who didn't do so well before they reached their destination.

In any case...] This is what you meant by being a Subway Boss, correct? You were in charge of this facility?

[emmet]

Yup!
I run it with Ingo! My big brother! [Who he misses.]
But not in this world.
There is another me in there.
[One who came back to life... creepy.]
I do not like it.
There is still another me, running around.
It unnerves me. [But then, why are you still smiling? Oh yeah.]

[rcktfm]

Another you? So this is indeed some sort of mirror world instead of the true Unova?

[Very interesting. Did that mean there was another him all the way back in Johto carrying along as he should be? He wasn't sure how he felt about that possibility.]

[emmet]

Mhm! And there is more then one! It is kind of scary.
[...Actually. Emmet hates it.]
But it is odd. I have not heard of anything happening outside this region. It is like Unova is cut off from the world.

[rcktfm]

Odd indeed... [If Unova was cut off, did that mean he couldn't make contact anywhere outside? No, that's preposterous. There couldn't be some mirror world in which only Unova existed...

H'm. He'd prefer finding this out sooner rather than later. Perhaps the rest of this tour would offer more insight into the matter. If not, then at the very least where he could get some electronics to jerry-rig as a test.]

[emmet]

Anyway! [And back to his cheerfulness. Well, his fake-cheerfulness - which seems to be faltering the smallest bit. He then pointed to the west.]
Over that way is the Pokemon Center! And the Battle Institute! The Battle Institute works with us sometimes, you know.
...There is also this odd building. I think it is called the Battle Club? I do not care about it.

[rcktfm]

[Yeah, he's been noticing how forced that smile is. Now isn't the time to pry, however, and playing it careful to get on this guy's good side may be beneficial in the near future.]

My, such a battle-centric city. It seems I'll have plenty to do during my stay, at the very least.
