One Icicle [Video]

[frostcicle]

 {Let's get one thing straight. Jack has no idea what to do with technology. He can press the on switch, and that's about it. Which seems to be what he's done here. Hey look, the screen is upside down!}

Eh, what is this, anyway? One of those... 'sell phones'?

{He picks it up, and there are white fingers in front of the camera, and then a shot of the sky, and then finally Jack's face. It's still crooked. There's an Oshawott on his head.}

I think it's on... What do you think?

{Oshawott chirps.}

Okay... Uh, I don't know who I'm calling, but whoever you are? I could... use a little help...

[ooc; still getting into the swing of things, and my e-mail inbox is going nuts, but i'm trying my best to come off hiatus. judai'll probs get a post sometime next week]

[There is a demon on your screen.]

...How do you not know what a cell phone is.

[He's so confused he can't even get mad about it...]

[frostcicle]

{Jack's going to stare at you. You look like Pitch. But you don't seem like Pitch...

He's gonna give you the benefit of the doubt, but he's on his guard.}

Uhhh... 'cause I've never seen one up close before?

[aslla_jack]

You-

You've never seen...

[This is a judging stare. A judging, judging stare-]

How have you never seen a cellphone before!? And turn it right side up!!

[what]

[frostcicle]

{He turns it a little, in an attempt to make the camera rightside up, but it just ends up more crooked. Oshawott chirps.}

Hey, calm down! Cell phones have only been around for, what, ten years or something? Havn't exactly gotten my hands on one.

[aslla_jack]

But they've been around so much longer! [protestprotestprotest-!]

At least thirty years! [AAAAAGH-]

...Who are you anyway...

[frostcicle]

Really? Guess I hadn't noticed...

Oh, uh, I'm Jack Frost. Spirit of Winter. {He forgets the Guardian of Fun bit because it's only been a few months and he doesn't exactly introduce himself to people much. Kids usually know who he is, if they can see him.}

[aslla_jack]

J-

[WUT- He looks genuinely surprised at that, ahah-] Y-Your name is-

We're both named Jack!?

[Jack stop being surprised.]

[frostcicle]

{Jack stops.}
We are?

{He grins.} Well, I mean, Jack's probably a common name, but that's still pretty cool.

[Tidus gives a bit of a smile, when he sees the white-haired guy on his screen. Don't worry, cell phones confuse him too a lot.]
Hey, well - I'll give you a run down?

[frostcicle]

{Jack stares at you too, because aren't you a little old to be believing? When did he even get this many believers?

But you seem nice so he smiles back.}

That would be cool.

[a_ghost_writers_ending]

[Haha, Tidus laughs a little - you may be able to spot his gills.]
Let's see... this is a land which isn't related to any other place at all - not your home, not Spira - nowhere. If we want to get home, we have to collect the badges, or ribbons.
[He crosses his arms.]
Our little friends can protect us, too - you should have seen how many Magikarp my 'Yamask' took down! I've only been here a little - this place seems pretty relaxed, too. Not many guys trying to kill us.

[frostcicle]

{He nods, but that doesn't really help. However he does scratch Oshawott under the chin.}
Okay. Why are we here? How did we get here? What's 'Spira'?

[mediocrespells]

[ Hazel has her Arcanine sitting behind her and Espeon halfway in her lap. The Arcanine has an Eevee on his head. ] What do you need help with?

[video]

[frostcicle]

{wow WHEre are all these believers coming from?!}

Uh... well I'd kinda like to know where I am?

[video]

[mediocrespells]

Unova. [ A slight pause where it almost seems like she's going to leave it at that but, she's not. ] It's some sort of alternate universe. If you just meant where in Unova, looks like maybe Route 1 to me. [ Head-tilt. ] Wasn't anyone around when you got here?

[video]

[frostcicle]

Well, that guy just shoved some stuff at me and sent me off. I didn't really have time to...
Alternate universe?

[video]

[mediocrespells]

Must have been a bad time or something. [ She hopes it's not just laziness. ] Yeah um, the entralink thing can bring people here from other worlds. I just sort of guessed it's either like a parallel dimension or just really really far away.

[video]

[frostcicle]

...
Is that why... everyone can see me?

[video]

[mediocrespells]

I suppose so... [ Wait. What? ] Um, why wouldn't people be able to see you?

[video]

[frostcicle]

Because where I'm from... I'm kinda a spirit. The spirit of winter.
Have you ever heard of Santa Claus? You can see him if you don't believe in him, right? It's like that.

[notsogrimreaper]

Oh, it's kind of like a cell phone! I think it's more like a miniature computer though...

I'll help you out! Just turn the transmitter around. It's making me dizzy seeing you upside down.

[Ryoji gives Jack a polite smile. He may not know much about the place himself, but he can still try to give him some information.]

[frostcicle]

Oh. {He turns it further. You are now upside down. Have fun.}

[notsogrimreaper]

W-Wait, sorry, other way, please!

[Please make everything stop spinning...]

[frostcicle]

Sorry! {He flips it, and now everything is rightside up.}

[notsogrimreaper]

Ah, that's better...

[Ryoji chuckles a bit.]

It is a little weird to get used to, huh?
