Smoke 001 [accidental video]

[inabacoffee]

[The screen flickers, and moments later a man is seen pacing around in the snow, seething, mumbling under his breath. He pays no mind to the video feed, seemingly unaware of the fact that it was recording him. The gear seemed to have fallen out of his bag onto the ground and a tiny little paw is seen obscuring the screen from time to time.]

DOJIMAAAAAA [also video]

[miniworth]

[He was browsing the network as usual, bored, when-- Oh WHOA PISSED OFF MIDDLE AGED MAN.

I mean.

What did you just---]

Did you just say Nanako?

MIIIIIIILES i mean who are you 8I [video]

[inabacoffee]

[Damn straight he's pissed. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE.]

Yeah, I did. What of it? [Who the hell is this kid. He doesn't look like he's from Inaba, HELL he doesn't even look Japanese, but it seems like he knows Nanako...]

IT'S OKAY DOJIMA MILES DON'T KNOW YOUR LAST NAME EITHER [video]

[miniworth]

[Most justified spasm of anger ever.]

You made it sound as if she was in danger. [Because now he's worried. Even if said Nanako is in the same building as him and the person she calls her older brother.]

STRANGE LITTLE CHILD U [video]

[inabacoffee]

[This man is angry and he'll stay angry til he sees his little girl. Now have an angry, yelling dad.]

What do you mean I "made it sound like"? She was just kidnapped.

[usedcabbages]

Do... Dojima-san?!

[usedcabbages]

I'm not really sure what happened, but... well, um. Nanako-chan appears to be with your nephew. I'm not exactly sure what city they're in, she didn't tell me... but she's okay.

[usedcabbages]

[Derp!]

You're in New Bark Town, right? I'm not sure where you can get coffee there, actually. But I know where you can get some in the next town over....!

video; AAAAAH ADACHI <3

[inabacoffee]

[Tch, Adachi. Might as well interrogate the shit out of him since he seems to know what's going on ffffff.]

What do you mean you don't know what happened? You were at the police station with me, weren't you? You heard about Nanako being...kidnapped.

I'm not really sure where I am right now. I just woke up, and here I am. Tch, well I better get some coffee soon because I don't think I'm going to be able to grasp what's going on here.

[usedrage]

--?! What happened to Nanako-san? [SHE WAS FINE THE LAST TIME KEN SAW HER D8. which was idk how long ago but.]

[inabacoffee]

S-she was kidnapped by that damned murderer. I need to get back to her now. [Have a slamming fist and rage face D:.]

[usedrage]

Murde--what? [Why has no one told ken there was a damned murderer in Johto?]

[inabacoffee]

Yeah. [Waitwaitwaitwait Inaba is a small town were almost everyone knows everyone so why hasn't he seen this kid before. And why hasn't he heard of the murderer?]

...You're...not from Inaba, kid? [alkjdflkdjf mass confusion for Dojima.]

[video] UNCLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE ;A;

[usedeverything]

[Checking the network right before going back to caring for Pokemon eggs when-- UNCLE? WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT-- UNCLE?

Alright, if Souji wasn't already surprise from DOJIMA BEING HERE, then he's even more surprised to hear him say that he needs to save Nanako. what are timelines here]

Uncle?

[video] NEPHEWWWWWWWW ;A;

[inabacoffee]

[What is HE doing here. WHAT IS THIS MADNESS.]

...Souji! What the hell are you doing? I thought you were at the police station. Do you have any ideas about what's going on around here?

[video] UNCLE YOUR TAG MAKES ME SEEM LIKE A CRIMINAL ;A;

[usedeverything]

[Police station? The only time that he was in down by the station while Nanako was-- Oh...That explains everything.]

Yeah, I have a few ideas.

Did anyone explain to you about this place yet?

[video] WELL MAYBE IF YOU WEREN'T HANGING OUT WITH THAT DELINQUENT YOSUKE...

[inabacoffee]

[Right now, he's just going to try to stay calm and listen to what Souji has to say. He obivously knows what's going on around here.

How come all the weird things happen to his nephew.]

You do, huh?

A bit. I talked to someone, and apparently I'm in that kids' game and there are time paradoxes. That's pretty much it.

...Someone told me Nanako was here. Is she with you?

1/2 [video]

[fortunatewings]

[Naoto blinks, and then blinks again (the Xatu standing behind her doesn't blink at all)]

Ah-- Dojima-san!

[video]

[fortunatewings]

[And then she gets her act together and clears her throat.]

Dojima-san, Nanako-chan is here and quite safe with Souji-senpai. As for the kidnapping... It will be resolved when you return home, I assure you. Until then there's nothing to be done but travel to the city Souji-senpai and Nanako-chan are in.

You've become acquainted with your new partner, yes?

[video]

[inabacoffee]

Oh, it's you. [The detective kid, huh?]

[A deep breath.] You know what happens after the kidnapping? But...how would that even be possible?

Partner? [He glances down at the dog...thing and smiles a little.] Well, he seems a lot more useful than Adachi, that's for sure.

[video]

[fortunatewings]

The date you remember is November 5th 2011, correct? The last date I was aware of before waking up here was March 28th, 2012. It would...not be wise to tell you at this time how it ends, but rest assured, justice will be served and Nanako will return home safe and healthy.

[Eventually]

He will be. The wild creatures are prone to attacking; your partner will be able to fend them off and he will grow stronger.

[She reaches up to scritch the chin feathers of her Xatu]

My original partner is Watson.
