01 - Restart - Video | Action for New Bark Town

[trusts_in_johto]

[Oh. A network broadcast from New Bark Town, on newbie day. But of course--

Wait. Doesn't that face look familiar? Or at least a little experienced? Ah well, he's talking to himself before he meant to turn the 'gear on -- blame his new Electric-type.]

...Bugs. This is stupid. I need to get back to Goldenrod, to Lammy and my Keytar. Where are my Pokey

[That face looked vaguely familiar... but he can't place his finger on where he had seen the other boy. The only way to find out is to ask. He can't go around not knowing people. It would be an insult to his kind.]

It was some idiot who thought it would be a damn good idea to set them loose. [Or at least that's what he's heard.]

[Video] It's okay! :D

[trusts_in_johto]

...I see. It is stupid. Very stupid!

[Video] \^o^/

[piccolo_tomate]

More than stupid! Those dumbass pokemon are scary too...

[Argh, he has to actually ask...] Do I know you? Damn it, it's really annoying to see your face because I know I've seen you before.

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

Stupid and scary. I stand corrected.
[...
Is he for serious? Right, right, having been gone for a while even though the date hadn't changed and ARGH. Stupid world.]
I am Machi Tobaye.

They attacked people and they were really big, too! They're all over Goldenrod.

...Machi? [Hey wait... It's an odd name, but he remembers where he's seen the kid.] You had a-Gavin, right? The thing that changed shape or grew up or whatever.

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

Goldenrod...!! [Machi pauses. It'd be okay to ask, right?] Have you seen a person called Lammy, safe and away from the bugs?
[And then a nod!]
Yes. He was my Jumpluff. I hope he is safe.

[Video]

[piccolo_tomate]

...No. What does she look like? [And because Machi looks worried, he adds a few words of comfort.] Most of the girls stayed inside and if they weren't inside, some men went and brought them in.

He should be. ...I got all of Spain's pokemon when he left, so maybe someone has yours. [And they were still with him, for better or for worse.]

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

She... she was taller then me. She had orange, short hair, and she was a good person. Nervous, but good. At Christmas, we performed together -- I hope she is okay. [You hear those words? It's not often Machi praises somebody like that.]

...One of your friends is gone? That is sad.

[Video]

[piccolo_tomate]

...I spoke to a girl with orange hair once, but that was a long time ago.

[He hears them, but so far it sounds more like Machi must have liked this Lammy~.]

He left a few months ago. I'm not sad about it anymore. [He is, but he'd rather not think about it.]

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

...I see. And not recently?
[Srs look and tiem.]

[Video]

[piccolo_tomate]

[He feels like the bringer of bad news...] No. ...It was in December.

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

...Oh.
[And that's when Machi goes nearly silent. He was almost ready to move on, damnit!]
S-stupid world.

[Video]

[piccolo_tomate]

[aw dammit! ...Okay, Romano made this boy sad, so he'll... try to make him a little happier.]

I-It is a stupid world, but maybe she's still here. My little brother left suddenly and then he came back. I think he got lost somewhere - and I'm sure he's still lost, since I haven't heard from him in a while. ...Wh-What I mean is Miss Lammy is probably lost. S-Somewhere.

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

...That is still bad! Very bad!

[Video]

[piccolo_tomate]

...She has her pokémon with her! She has too, so that means she's safe. Do you really think she'd let a bunch of dumb bugs stop her? She's probably safe - [he remembers something vaguely important--] she was in Violet City the last I heard of her.

[Video]

[trusts_in_johto]

...Violet? That does not sound like Lammy. Lammy and me -- we stayed in Goldenrod... in Goldenrod! Not Violet!
