001; video/action for New Bark Town

[sharkfoodbound]

[The video feed begins with a patch of frost covered grass. In this patch of grass you can see a larvitar, locked in a fierce wrestling match with what appears to be a blue beanie. A few seconds of this before Squalo gets bored and speaks up. He sounds bored, annoyed and exasperated.]

Voooi, this is fucking ridiculous!

Play... pretend? Well... I guess it does seem kind of like that. But it's not, really.

It's play pretend when some bitch I've never seen walks up to me and calls me her son, and I get to act the part.

Re: video;

[usedcabbages]

O-oh, yeah.... that. That part is pretty strange, but nobody else acts like. It's... pretty real, actually.

[sharkfoodbound]

Vooi, I'm aware it's real! Kind of hard to miss.

I... I'm just saying. It was pretty confusing for most of us at first. A place like this existing... and having to live in it. It's easy to be in disbelief about it.

[sharkfoodbound]

Disbelief won't get you anywhere. Something this elaborate couldn't possibly be a set-up, so however weird it might be, you gotta fess up and deal with it. Vooi, aren't you older than me and supposed to be more mature about shit?

[Oh Squalo, if only you knew. There's a piece of him that wants to just tell it like it is, but... haha, he knows that's a bad idea right now.]

It's not like I'm being immature about it. I was just pointing it out, since, well... I was in the same position not that long ago. It takes a lot of getting used to, you know?

[Squalo would actually like him better if Adachi played it straight. But alas, it is not to be. As it is, he's just going to dislike this wimp on principle alone.]

Sure, sure, whatever.

So how long's 'not too long'?

video; jxhjhs this is so late SORRY.

[usedcabbages]

[Adachi doesn't know this though... not yet, at least.]

About a month... which really isn't long. Well, not compared to some of the other people here, at least.

video; it's okay it's okay. ^^

[sharkfoodbound]

And you still haven't gotten the hang of this place yet?

video; ♥♥♥

[usedcabbages]

Well, it's not that I haven't. I mean, I understand the basics and all, but there's a lot of stuff that I don't think anyone really gets until they're here for a while...

video;

[sharkfoodbound]

...like?

video;

[usedcabbages]

Well, getting used to all the different types and attacks. And just the way things are here in general. People from all kinds of worlds and different times... it's a big adjustment.

video; ...herp derp, who's late now. >>

[sharkfoodbound]

...or the background music, or the freakish people, or we can just keep whining about it forever, instead of sucking it up and getting the hell on with it.

video; we're just a pile of lateness OwO

[usedcabbages]

Yeah, that's all part of it. I'm not complaining or anything, just... telling what it is, I guess. A lot of people do complain a lot. I guess you can't always win, huh?

video; ...speaking of lateness. '>>

[sharkfoodbound]

For given values of 'winning'. No, apparently not.
