[When the Forge first turns on, the voice on the other end is distracted and the sounds of buttons being pushed can be heard, but soon enough the person figures out he's on the air.]

-- like the cell phone Yosuke gave me. I wonder if it's on yet... Maybe I should push this one next! ... No, wait a second. Aha! Beary clever, making it do that.

[ OH MY FREAKING GOD WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. ]

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

Hello? Who's there?

voice.

[excarnates]

You're -- [ a pause. uhhh . . . yeah, he's totally blanking out right now. so tired he's seeing things! or something. ] They call the city Anatole.

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

So it has a name! That's a beary important piece of information for my investigation. Thank you, citizen!

[voice]

[lonestray]

[If it were video, one might see the corner of Scar's eye twitching.]

...please. Stop it with the bear puns already.

[And then that image flashes on screen and he just stares at it blankly for the next few seconds it remains because he refuses to believe that that just now was a talking bear.]

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[voice]

[lonestray]

Ugh. You know damn well what I'm talking about, so stop it. It's beary anno--shit!

It's VERY annoying. [a frustrated noise]

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

Hmmmm...

What is it that's annoying you again? I can't seem to recall.

[Voice]

[likethebeast]

[yeah, okay, what?]

Uhm, you're... ah.

[she takes a moment to gather herself]

...Teddie, is it? Hello?

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

That's my name! Hello, miss. [he pauses for a moment, then speaks again, his voice suddenly sounding much more... suave.] I mean. Hello.

[voice]

[likethebeast]

[there's a brief moment of silence, followed by a slightly hesitant giggle - she can't help it]

You must be one of the new arrivals...? I don't think we've had any, well... bears here before. It seems like you're already getting an interesting reaction from everyone else!

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

Well, I just got here, so that's probably right. Good! This Teddie likes being one of a kind. Hmmmm... Am I getting an interesting reaction from you, mademoiselle?

[cop_for_one_day]

[Jesus Christ. It's a talking bear... thing. Leon seriously considers that he's gone insane, and this entire city, including the bear, are just a giant delusion. Magic, he can deal with. Not so with talking toys.]

...your puns suck. You're not funny. And what the hell are you, some kind of possessed plush toy?

[He is really not amused with this city. Not at all.]

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

[why yes the voice sounds offended. but he is not going to take this lying down, no sir!]

Funny, I don't think you're very funny either. Hmph!

[voice]

[cop_for_one_day]

I'm not trying to be.

...so what are you?

[A bit less hostile and freaked out this time. More curious.]

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

I'm just like anyone else. Sensei and the others said that I am, anyway!

Oh, I'm a lot cuter and fuzzier than anyone else is though.

voice

[vowing]

Did I just hear a mascot talking to itself?

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

That all depends, my good man. Ahem. [the next line comes off in a sing-songish sort of voice] Is every day great at your Junes?

voice

[vowing]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say... no? Even if it was, I don't think I'd be convinced that I'm not having a conversation with a mascot.

[voice]

[unbearlievable]

I happen to have a very successful career, so you know. But if you don't know Junes, then I don't think I can go into too much detail.
