[For some unknown reason (perhaps the locals did it?), the SFC starts recording in video + audio function to show a teenaged boy lying on the ground. He's dressed in a neat uniform, which unfortunately has been ruined by his trip to Vatheon. Wet blonde locks are sticking to his face, too. He stirs, before sitting up and looking down at his clothes

That's what I said, too. Everyone thought I was crazy.

Uh .. welcome to Vatheon! You're not anywhere near home unless you live under the sea. Hi, I'm Lavi.

[blamemymom]

Huh, what?

[He didn't even really process Lavi's words. He's just curious to find out where they came from, which is why glances around blankly. When he spots the SFC, he quickly scrambles over to it on all fours.]

Oh sweet, a Gameboy! I haven't seen one of these in years. [Tap tap. Have a finger against the camera.]

[He's looking at the thing from all angles, so don't be surprised if you get random shots of the sky or the floor.]

Jeez, what a lame design. Nintendo's really running out of ideas, huh? At least the graphics went up a notch. [Staring at the screen again. Yeah, this is definitely a step up from the pixel Mario he remembers.]

okay video

[conjuren]

[turns on the video option and just kinda stares back at francis after the whole different angles stops. time to pull a prank.] Could you be a bit more careful? I think I got a headache 'cause of that...

Video, ffft whoops

[blamemymom]

Whoah! It's interactive! [He'll give the SFC a firm shake to test its features.]

Video, ffff <3

[makes a surprised face] Hey! Mind not doing that? [trying so hard to keep a straight face at this]

[He snorts before lowering the SFC again. And yes, he's still sitting on his knees.] Okay, so I'm in Atlantis and a starfish-shaped Gameboy is telling me to stop shaking it. I gotta remember this dream for when I finally get my well-deserved therapy.

[conjuren]

Yeah, if only it were a dream...

Video

[blamemymom]

See, that's exactly what a dream Gameboy would tell me!

[conjuren]

What is a 'gameboy'?

[blamemymom]

The thing I always wanted for Christmas but never got. Boy, was I mad when I got a sweater every year. So mad I tricked Jimmy Henderson from second grade into giving me his. Maybe that's why I'm dreaming about a Gameboy now.

Guilt?

[blamemymom]

Either that, or fear of getting punished for stunts I pulled that mom never found out about.

[conjuren]

How ... how old are you?

[blamemymom]

Seventeen.
