-find the button? [ The video feed clicks on and anyone unfortunate enough to be watching it will be treated to a dizzying display as Flynn turns the PokéGear over in his hands. After a moment, though, he evidently figures out what’s going on and sets the machine down on the ground in front of him with a small exclamation of pleased surprise

Hello, Flynn. You must be a new arrival…

I am Commander Eagle Vision from Autozam. I don’t know everything about this place yet, but maybe I could be a little help?

[on_myhonor]

[ Ah! Another military personnel. Flynn perks up - and straightens up - visibly. ]

Yes, that would be nice. I suppose I should start by asking where I am and how I got here.

[Video]

[unyieldingwill]

[So like a new cadet… This sudden desire to appear more formal makes Eagle smile, but then… a lot of things make Eagle smile. ]

I don’t know how you got here. Most people just appear to wake up in this place… or at least that is how it happened for me. One minute I was somewhere else and the next, I was here. This place is called Johto and it is filled with little creatures like that one.

[A nod at the Growlithe nosing around in Flynn's things. ]

They come in all different types.

[ It's funny how Flynn still acts like a new recruit when he's in new situations, despite the fact that he's hardly new or low-ranking. But he takes the smile at face value and listens attentively. ]

Creatures? [ He looks back at his Growlithe, who notices the attention and comes trotting over, nuzzling persistently at Flynn's hand. Flynn happily obliges and starts petting the Growlithe. ] So there's other types of dogs around, or...?

[Anew is surprised at first when she sees this boy's confusion, and then she remember that people can come from any time to this world]

I can help you if you want, so tell me.

What do you want to know?

[Video]

[on_myhonor]

[ More people on the screen! Flynn can't really hide his curious surprise at the strange technology. ]

Anything you can tell me would be helpful, ma'am. My knowledge is too limited to even ask questions.

[video]

[nobromance]

I can hear you quite clearly.

[interesting clothes, Flynn.]

[video] durr hurr html fail sorry

[on_myhonor]

[ It's just standard issue Imperial armor. Pay no attention to the pretty (and now useless) gemstone in his breastplate. ]

Oh! Excellent. May I ask your name?

[video] It's okay! 8)

[nobromance]

I'm not sure how my name is relevant to what you want to know, but it's Naoya.

[he just wants to be difficult.]

[video]

[on_myhonor]

[ Good thing Flynn is totally oblivious to subtle smarm! ]

I like to know how to address people, [ he explains, ] especially people who are helping me. It's only polite.

[ But on to the questions! ] Do you also have one of these 'Pokémon'? [ Flynn pronounces it awkwardly, like his mouth isn't used to the shape. ]

[video] after much debate, you get the unicorn

[celestias]

[Have a smile from a rainbow haired woman, Flynn.]

I can hear you quite well! Do you need some help?

[video] It's a pity she's not REALLY a unicorn. Flynn misses Sparkles :c

[on_myhonor]

[ That is very unique hair. He picks the 'gear up to try and communicate better. ]

Yes, please - though I'm afraid I don't know where to start asking questions.

[video] sob yes. :c

[celestias]

[She nods at his responds. If Flynn looks close enough, there might be a random Solrock floating around in the background.]

Well, I think the most common one that I hear from the new pon- [Wait, not all humans understand pony speak yet 8(]

I mean, people, is 'What is this place?'

This place is called Johto.

[video] ...you have read the Let's Play Vesperia Blind, right?

[on_myhonor]

That's very strange, I don't think I've ever heard of a place called 'Johto'. [ He opens his map and starts looking it over. ] Is this an island or something? [ Terca Lumireis is a big place, after all. ]

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

If you use this, everyone in the country can hear you.

[video]

[on_myhonor]

Everyone!? [ He sounds incredulous and a little flustered. It's a bit unseemly for the entire population to have to watch him fumbling around and being lost, even if he doesn't know anyone. ]

M-My apologies, I didn't realize this would inconvenience so many people.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

Don't worry about it. [he waves it off] We all get confused at first.

[video]

[on_myhonor]

Still, I'll try to be more careful in the future. [ But the stranger's friendly attitude does help, and Flynn eventually stops being flustered. ]

Do you live here?
