1st Turn [Video/Action for Route 2]

[markoftheheart]

[The feed opens up to Rua stroking the head of a recently-caught Charmander. A Beldum in a similar condition is also floating nearby.]

Hey, is there anyone out there that's good at coming up with nicknames?! I just caught these two and I dunno what I should call 'em... [He seems to realize the Charmander shouldn't be getting all of his attention, and then reaches up to give the Beldum a few pats.]

"Ah- Y-yes..!" S-So many pokemon already th-

aaaAAAH- He leans away from the beldum a bit, apparently a little put off by the metal pokemon. "Mn..."

[markoftheheart]

I don't think he wants to hurt ya, Zone. [Indeed, the steel-type is merely floating in mid-air and staring.

... Though, it's bound to be a bit awkward.]

[neikeabequeathing]

"M-Mn..." Okay. Okay.

Staring back. Staring. Staring...

"...He looks a little like the drones from home..." Wuaaaaaaaaahhhh!!

[markoftheheart]

... Drones?

[neikeabequeathing]

"Aah- Mn..! I wasn't supposed to leave my home... Not too much at least. There were lots of different kinds of robots around from the scientists who made my house. This is sort of what the camera-drones looked like."

...Wow okay that's depressing.

[markoftheheart]

Oh...

[Well, that plummeted quickly.]

[neikeabequeathing]

"Aah, but it says that 'Beldum' evolve, so he won't always look like this probably..! And..."

Beat.

"Camera drones didn't do anything but watch really, hahahah..."

[markoftheheart]

Ahh, all right...

[No, Zone, he's still not reassured.]

[neikeabequeathing]

"Mn? Something wrong..?"

/OBLIVIOUSNESS

[markoftheheart]

No, no, it's nothing.

[neikeabequeathing]

"Ah- Okay!" Eheee~

"...Mn... I hope I can find some pokemon to catch as well... Th-Though I'm a little uneasy about some of them, hahaha..." Says the troll...

[markoftheheart]

Why would ya be uneasy?

[neikeabequeathing]

"Ah- W-Well, truth be told... I was in a pretty dangerous place before I got here... Before, when I lived on my island, there was no one but Clawsprite. But through a game my friends and I started playing, we were all transported somewhere else entirely..!! Um..."

Cough.

"There were lots of monsters trying to hurt us..." Read- KILL.

[markoftheheart]

Well, these guys don't seem like they're too mean... [Except for, you know, the Charmander that keeps chomping on his hand every time he says something that displeases her.]

[neikeabequeathing]

"M-Mnn! It just takes a bit to get over I guess..." Hahahaha...

He laughs a little nervously. "Last I remember, my friends and I were escaping something really bad so..." Unsaid- he showed up. Friends didn't.
