[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?

[ Well, first things first: ] Uh....Clover's not here.

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[oh. well first it was santa, and now this one.]

A gold star for you, Junpei. [he pauses.] . . . I see. [lil sis. :c]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

...Thanks. [ does that sound just a tiny bit sarcastic, or is it just me? ]

But it's probably for the best, right? I mean, can you imagine her with a Pokémon?

[ lmfao junpei that is not the way to try and reassure someone. ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[that's your imagination, Junpei.]

Well, she'd have the energy required for a Trainer. [thoughtful pause.] ... Several trainers.

[action]

[pastsanity]

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.

[ 1/3 PRETEND THIS ISN'T HERE ]

[usedtroll]

Ah!

[ oh. ]

[ ALSO VOICE ]

[usedtroll]

[ Oh.

There's silent on her the end of the gear, stretched out long enough to become rather uncomfortable. But she keeps it up, hands shaking as she stares at the name placed on the gear.

Shit. ]

the end ~

[usedtroll]

[ What does she do? This wasn't supposed to happen. None of this was supposed to happen, and shit why is she even leaving a message again?

An apology. That's probably what she should say, but she is definitely not strong enough to say it. How would he react? He wouldn't accept it -- he should't accept it. She did bad things. She did very, very bad things. ]

... Mm.

[ click! ]

okay okay [ 10 minutes later ]

[usedtroll]

... Hey, Snake.

[ hnnng the awkward. ]

Welcome to the fun, I guess.

[voice]

[trusts_in_johto]

...There is no exit, unless whoever brought us to Johto is bored of you.

[voice]

[poliswag]

Ah. As expected, then.

I suppose what exactly make our captors bored is not exactly common knowledge, either?

[voice]

[trusts_in_johto]

Sadly, no. There have been no clues, and no evidence towards what our captors want from us, and what bores them. No.

[voice]

[poliswag]

I see. . .

You seem adapted to the situation, at least. Have you been here long?

[video]

[nobletemper]

Snake? Heard of worst names, I suppose. Least it's not The Snake.

[at that little childhood dream comment, donna snorts] This wasn't any sort of childhood dream for me, I'll tell y'that much. Was fulfilling my dream already before I came here.

[video]

[poliswag]

It isn't my actual given name, unfortunately. Though The Snake has a nice charm. [he's joking.]

Ah. Living your life to the fullest?

[video]

[nobletemper]

Yeah, I figured that much at least. And one "The Anything" is enough, thanks.

That'd be it, and it's about time too. Course when I finally managed to even get started on some adventures, I ended up here.

[video]

[poliswag]

I take it you have experience with someone bearing that title, I suppose?

I'm sure there's some positive points to this situation, as well.
