[ The video flickers. It comes on to show the face of a man. Then off. Then on again. Then, there's no video, but you can here indistinct mumbling in the background.

Finally, on, again. There's a man wearing some sort of uniform. The floor behind him is strewn with stuff; obviously, he's dug through all the supplies that came in his little ( Read more... )

Arah~ You must be new, I would be assuming, sir?

I am Satoko Houjoh and I feel I must inform you that you are in Johto right now... My my, what an adorable Pokemon you seem to have as well~.

[ Aww, cute little girl...! But not as cute as Elicia. ]

Johto? ... Pokemon?

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I've heard of either of those.

It is fine. I myself had not heard of such things until I arrived here.

The little one with you is a Pokemon. Pokemon are like family and keep you company here.

[ He glances over at the Eevee, and reaches out to pet its head. ]

Pokemon, hmm? [ Talking to the Eevee now: ] My daughter would love you.

[ Now, back to the girl. ]

And... how do I get home?

[Another newbie? Harry makes a note to start tracking when all these 'where the heck am I and what's a Pokemon' broadcasts happen, see if he can spot a pattern. He gets ready to give the standard welcome-to-Johto brief, but then - daughter.]

[That stops him for a second. The guy just seems so... enthusiastic.]

[Stab. Twist. This is going to suck.]

You're in a place called Johto. No one knows how to get back. People seem to pop in and out at random.

Johto, you say? I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I've ever heard of that place.

Well, getting back would be simple, wouldn't it? Just hop on a train bound for your home, and you'll get there.

[Ah. Here's where it gets complicated.]

I don't think there are any trains that go far enough. ...Putting it mildly.

[Harry supposes it'd be possible, though he's not sure he wants to think about the magical power it'd take. Getting home from Johto is probably a bit more complicated than ripping open a portal the the Nevernever...]

Johto's not just another country. It's a whole other world. Even the rules of physics are different here.

[Way to ease the newby into the concept, Harry.]

[ He doesn't believe you. You lost him after that bit about not having trains. ]

So then... my wife and daughter must also be here, somewhere.

[ Okay, so he won't question your weird theories. But wherever this place is, he's made it here alright. Therefore, Gracia and Elicia must have as well. ]

[Well...this is new, isn't it. He'll just take note of the insignia at your shoulder - it takes him a moment of playing through the original posted message again, because dear lord you're managing to have this backwards somehow, how do you do these things - before he fires up a video feed of his own.]

Well, well. It's certainly been a while, Lt. Colonel Hughes. I didn't expect to see you here, of all places.

[ Blinks. He could say the same about you. Shouldn't you be in... jail...? ]

Well, if it isn't the Red Lotus Alchemist...

[It's been a while since he's had that discussion - everyone seems to think he escaped for some reason...]

So you do remember me - I'm flattered.

[ Well, nobody in their right mind would let you out, so... the reasonable conclusion would be that you escaped. ]

How long have you been... [ ... out ] ... here?

A cute one...?

[ But he hasn't even flashed you a picture of his daughter yet. ]

You're not lost, you're just not where you're supposed to be. But Tot doesn't think you're daughter will miss her papa as much as he will miss her.

... Oh?

Oh, but she does get quite upset if I have to work overtime. I do try my best to spend as much time with her as possible.

As if anyone wouldn't want to!

[ He's digging around in his pockets, now. There's got to be some sort of-- oh! He's found a picture. And he's pressing it up against the screen. It's a picture of him, hugging a very adorable little girl. She's got a huge smile on her face. ]

See? My sweet little girl!

But time isn't the same here, so she might not know you're not there. [She doesn't really understand it but that's what she was told.]

Oh, that's cute!
