[to those that are listening in on Pokéconnect, this feed starts with a flash of video--just the ground, nothing more--before it turns to the slightly static silence of audio. another flash to video. and then back to audio. whoever is broadcasting this is very obviously fiddling with it, in some way. a voice cuts in mid-sentence, and the fiddling

What kind of answer would that be?

Of course there's an exit. This is hardly a closed room.

[action]

[poliswag]

I suppose "known exit" is a better phrase, though that was already implied.

[but hello, young head.]

[action]

[pastsanity]

Fair enough. Regardless of the implication, shouldn't the same answer still apply?

I sincerely doubt we're unable to leave such an open environment.

[action]

[poliswag]

Of course. But if there's no "known exit" at this time, you can argue that there isn't an exit at all.

. . . Though I do agree that the absence of an exit is a bit unlikely, and would prove rather pointless.

[action]

[pastsanity]

Fair enough. All it would take to disprove that would be to just drive or even walk far enough in a direction until you find familiar ground, though, right?

Exactly.

[action]

[poliswag]

I'd assume it's a bit more complicated than that, but it works. If it were that simple.

[lightbulb.]

What exactly is "familiar ground" to you?

[action]

[pastsanity]

... I suppose that's too vague, isn't it?

Let me rephrase it, then. So long as I come across somewhere that leads to familiar ground. Even if it means taking a train, a plane, or boat, that means I have found an exit.

Given how open this place is, one's personal definition of closed should probably be taken into account as well. Just how grand do you think this stunt is?

[action]

[poliswag]

Yet, arguably, if that familiar ground was just an extension of this, would it be an exit?

The foundations of this place are arguably familiar ground to me and some others. Unfortunately, I can't argue on the "openness" of the world, but I have some grasp of just how big it is. [because he's as blind as a bat.]

[action]

[pastsanity]

That just goes back to what defines an exit. To me, this closed space is the area that won't allow me to return home. Once I find my way, I've found my exit.

... Though you speak like you know where you are. Is that true?

[action]

[poliswag]

Of course. And best of luck to you, in that regard.

[olol. kinzo is getting a small shrug as a response to his question.]

I actually have no idea.

[action]

[pastsanity]

Thank you.

... Hmm. I see.

[action]

[poliswag]

You sound disappointed.

[action]

[pastsanity]

Can you blame me? Everyone wants to go home.

[action]

[poliswag]

As expected.

There's no need to spend the majority of your time in disappointment, though. Things will come soon enough.

[action]

[pastsanity]

The only thing I need is the fastest bus, boat, or plane back to my estate.

[action]

[poliswag]

I'd personally pass on the boat.

[olol inside joke. except not.]

Preferences aside, I feel as if we'll be waiting a while for something like that.
