[Okay, so, Jake accidentally hit a few buttons, so have fun watching what looks like John Egbert having a hard time with an overly affectionate Emolga. At least, it's only for a few seconds. It kind of cuts out to text when he falls down on the ground.]

[After a couple moments more, there is a proper text message.]

Jiminy frigging christmas are these pokemon things always so enthusiastic to meet new people?
Jeez.
I apologize for that spot of trouble but the rapscallion wouldnt take no for an answer!
Or stay for that matter.
At any rate is this perchance a dream bubble?
If it is its the weirdest one ive been in yet!

{OOC: It's also action for anybody in New Bark Town.}

It's the flying squirrel I got landed with. I didn't expect him to be so enthusiastic.

[He nods.]

Yes, I don't have much experience with them, but they feel pretty real by themselves. It's really rather surreal, like an extremely vivid dream or memory.

[Ugh, squirrels. At least Misaki didn't have to deal with those rodents.] Some of the creature are too enthusiastic for my tastes to be honest, but its better than being them trying to kill you, I guess.

As realistic as this place feels, it still feels like some kind of dream. I mean, just look at the creatures around here.

[hoperaider]

Goodness, yes, they're pretty strange. Actually, it's kind of surreal to be here. In my world, there's a whole franchise based around Pokemon.

Re: [video]

[brokenmemories]

[Surprise, Misaki's a 1960s kid. Pokemon franchise doesn't exist yet.]

....But aren't these creatures called Poke--

Franchising?

[hoperaider]

[Dang, must be a sad place to be.]

Yes. There's a whole game and cartoon series, along with toys, dolls, and some movies.

[video]

[brokenmemories]

[A sad place indeed.

Misaki still doesn't get a word you are saying and just stares at you blankly.]

[video]

[hoperaider]

[Cough, he's a little embarrassed.]

Well, basically, it's something that's more of a fantasy thing in my world. Stories and toys, mostly.

[Misaki's still trying to understand. She hasn't felt so dumb in forever.]

Pokemon isn't a thing where I come from, though insect collecting seems to be roughly similar. It isn't all hyped up like everyone here makes it to be.

[video]

[hoperaider]

I suppose it's just more popular with kids. Still, I can sort of see why people would like them. They are kind of cute.

[video]

[brokenmemories]

It isn't exactly cute when people use them to fight against each other. Kind of scary and suspenseful, actually.

[Misaki ponders for a bit.]

Now that I think about it, this place isn't too different here from where I come from, except for a few things..

[video]

[hoperaider]

What is your world like, if you don't mind my asking?

[video]

[brokenmemories]

It's.....pretty normal, to be honest. I live on Mainland Japan in the city so its pretty crowded.

Compared to everyone's worlds that I've heard about, there's nothing too significant about my world other than...well, paranormal businesses.

[video]

[hoperaider]

I wouldn't sell yourself short. I've never left my island before, so it's fascinating to hear about the different places, even if I can't visit them.

What sort of paranormal business?

Re: [video]

[brokenmemories]

Misaki was about to reply to the guy's comment before hearing him asking what did she meant by 'paranormal business'. Why didn't you have to mention that bit, Misaki?]

Well...its just... [How could she explain without revealing too much?] ...Spirits actually exist.

[Nice explanation there.]
