[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

Snake? That's... that's a pretty neat name! [Neat, except you don't look like a snake to her.] I'm Miyako! Um... Welcome to Johto!

But yeah, there's no known exit.

[Video]

[poliswag]

Thank you. Though to be honest, It's more of a nickname. A pleasure to meet you either way, Miyako.

[he pauses.]

I had expected as much.

[Video]

[digital_bingo]

Nice to meet you too! And I like it. Does it mean you're sneaky?

Yeah... but it's really not as bad as it seems! I thought it'd be really bad, with all the camping and walking, but the cities are really nice. You just have to watch out for all of the hidden pokémon everywhere--

Oh! You mentioned them before, right? Did you know about pokémon before you came here?

[Video]

[poliswag]

Not quite. It's pulled from dice--"snake-eyes" in particular.

And yes, I did. Not incredibly familiar, but I was at least aware of them when I was a child.

[thebelsareinert]

Good luck with that. I've been getting the answer you won't accept for weeks.

[video]

[poliswag]

You'd best spare some of that luck for yourself, as well, given we're in the same situation.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

I've been building up a lot already.

[video]

[poliswag]

Not enough, it seems.

[foreverabeard]

Snake? [ Yeah, that gets a headtilt from her. What a strange name you have, sir. ] Do you have some kind of relation to snakes? Or maybe...

Do you like them?

( video )

[poliswag]

Actually, the name is more a reference to dice, and not the creature itself.

However, I can't say I dislike the animal itself. They are beautiful-looking creatures, from what I remember.

( video )

[foreverabeard]

Ah, I see! A reference to dice.

... From what you can remember? That sounds sad.

( video )

[poliswag]

Yes. "Snake-eyes".

But there's no need to worry about that. It isn't as sad as it sounds.

[usedfuturesight]

Huh. Maybe it does seem to be part of a childhood thing. [Except he probably did not play any video games as a kid.]

[But he is just taking a walk around town and found this guy and he seems cool so why not talk with him.]

[action]

[poliswag]

[oh. snake is just going to turn in the direction of kazuki fabulousbangnui's voice.]

Indeed. Not that I'd ever think it possible...

[action]

[usedfuturesight]

Yeah, pretty much. Then again, anything could be possible. But I guess we just have to deal with it for now, right?

By the way, I haven't seen a pink haired girl around. Someone important?

[action]

[poliswag]

Some things are more likely than others, but that's a bit of a devil's proof. Adapting is certainly a valid response, though.

[at kazuki's second point, snake just nods.]

Very much so. She's my sister.

[cynicizing]

[... Shit. Because having Junpei in Goldenrod wasn't bad enough, apparently.]

Great. Now that you're here, we can have a freakin' party.

voice;

[poliswag]

[oh come on, santa. no need to be that way.]

Now, I'm sure that much effort is unnecessary for my welcoming.

voice;

[cynicizing]

[This is awkward. >:]

Hey, Junpei was probably gettin' lonely. You two can keep each other company.

[... And yes, that was also meant as an answer to his question about Clover.]

voice;

[poliswag]

[just for santa, snake will make it more awkward.]

Ah, how fortunate for him, then. [yeah, he caught that.] I assume that means you won't join us.
