[Today's Pokemon show comes in two different flavors!]

[option a: midday, text]

[The first message comes through as all of Mewtwo's posts do, from his own laptop and so forth. It seems, however, that he is not the one typing at the moment, because this person can't spell nearly as well as he can: ]

what is yur favrit bug

[option b: midnight, anonymous text]

[The second message comes much later, is much better written, and is also completely anonymous. It's just as obscure, though:]

Do you believe it is important for a child to have a "mother" and a "father"?

[ooc: please feel more than free to respond to both :D There is no IC evidence that they are connected, but I wanted to do both of 'em and didn't want to spam the comm.]

Hello yes, Misfire here. Question for all your squishies out there! What do you do for fun? Like really? This place is mind-numbingly boring.

I mean, sure there's been drama and the like, but other than that? I got nothing. As much as I love drama, I'm also into other things. Like not drama.

And fun.

[The voice that comes through the network has an odd quality to it - namely that it actually seems to be coming from inside your own head. If you've ever known a psychic before, you might recognize it as telepathy. Fun for the whole family!]

It appears to be useless to attempt to hide oneself in this city. We have all become aware that some of us are more dangerous than first thought, but I do not fear such things. [Nevertheless, he pauses, but then continues casually.]

I am Mewtwo. And it has come to my attention that the Pokemon trainers from my world have disappeared from this city. However, I know that some of you may still be in possession of eggs or infant Pokemon. If you have questions or concerns, I ask that you contact me. I do not care for humans, but the well-being of Pokemon is important to me.

If you feel that you are unable to care for any Pokemon in your possession, then contact me also. Do not endanger another creature's life out of a reluctance to seek help.

[When the feed begins, there is a very unkempt Rhea surrounded by papers and some of the scrolls that were collected the month or so previously. It's obvious that she has overly strained herself as she rubs her left eye with a blackened hand from the ink she used.]

Hello, favored visitors. I apologize for my less... seemly appearance, but due to the events last month that likely left many of you thrown for a loop, it fell to me to find a means of reversing the effects and to translate many of the texts recovered to a language all can understand.

Last month began a cycle of the year in which the Goddess of the Wind and Aether's influence is strongest. According to our ancient texts- [She picks up one of the scrolls of paper she wrote on.] "The Lady of Aether ist much a trickster in nature, and blesses our mortal beings the power of transformation."

[After setting it down, she continues.]

To those who were amongst the Transformed last month, she chose you much like she had chosen me as a child. This form given you is capable of being shifted between with a proper conduit, such as the mask a few of you have seen in my office.

[She bows her head... and promptly dozes off by accident.

Oops.]

I'm looking for people to train with who battle with animals. I'm a pokémon trainer, but if you don't use pokémon we can see if it works out. We'll be in district 4 if you want to meet and talk about it. We're on the side without any markings on the map. I'll check back on this too but it won't be until later. [ like hours laters. maybe even coming close to night time kind of later. he's using a terminal okay. ]Also, if anyone has food they can't use we'll take it. Hard or mouldy or anything like that is fine. It's for one of my pokémon. Thanks.

[ Action ; district 4 ]

[ And like he said, Red and his pokémon can be found in district 4. They've taken up one of the spots that... actually, they've been using for a while since being here, only moving to a different location if anybody else got there first. But such occasions have been far and few between, thankfully.

Which pokémon can be found battling against each other all depends (on you). Sometimes it's your basic one on one match, sometimes a two on two -- maybe even, there'll be a three on three battle going on. The matches will look entirely unfair at times to those not familiar with pokémon (or any type of RPG ~~tonberry~~), with a tiny yellow rodent going up against a six foot massive panda or an oversized mutant not-ninja turtle blasting off jets of water towards a dragon-like creature with a flame on the tip of its tail, but that's pokémon for you.

But for all the crashing, throwing, blasting, frizzing, and all that lovely chaotic stuff they seem to be lashing out at each other, they're being mindful to keep it around themselves as best as they can. Feel free to hear it or see it; it's probably not all that hard if you're around district 4 anyway.

It's not all just intense training 24/7, of course, and maybe when your character comes around they won't be practising at all! There's break times to be had of course, and that's the time for them to get all close together, sitting on the ground with Red sometimes fussing around them to see how they are. Got to make sure to keep up that touch quota, after all. Or even have lunch. Everybody loves lunch. ]

-Is it on yet? [It is on yet. Yes. Okay. Good. Say hello to Silver, guys! He's trying not to look as awkward as he feels on the network, but there's only so much he can do. Behind him are a couple of his Pokémon- as well as a couple of Crys' partners. They all seem to be in pretty high spirits!]

Hi. [Great and solid start there, loser.] You know the bird guy [name, he has a name-] Ramza that gives Chocobo eggs to good homes every now and then? [Deep breath, Silver. Easy. He's not sure why he didn't just let Crys do this. She's much better with talking to people- anyway.]

Crys and I have a few eggs in need of good homes too. [And it's at this point that he holds up two blue eggs with very different patterns on them- He's very careful about it, but it's more than enough to get a good look at them.] We've got a few of them.

The catch is that they're gonna hatch into Pokémon- they'll be the pre-evolution of one of these guys back here. [All the Pokémon eagerly wave from behind Silver! Hi guys.] They're gonna need a lot of love, attention, and patience. Some people at home treat them like pets, but most people treat them like friends or partners.

We'll answer anything you need to know about them and help you train them if you want, but we can't take care of all of these guys ourselves. [...So, uh-] Any takers?

[Did he do well, Crys, does he get a star-]

[ooc: HI GUYS IT'S EGG TIME. All the ooc info you need is here- this is just a post to gather ic interest and we'll pick brand new trainers out shortly! It's not too late to try for one- anyone that shows enough interest on the post will be put into our amazing wild completely cool rng thing for a chance at a Pokémon (and remember, even if you don't get one this time there's always next time in a few months!)

ALSO. Gold, Crys, and Silver will all be threadjacking pretty much everything on this post, so if you get a tag from one of us unless otherwise specified feel free to assume you can tag back go ahead this is pure chaos I apologize-]

[Hi, Saeng Seong. Big pink eyes are staring at you. The sound of a little paw slapping the keyboard can be heard, and text shows up along with the video feed: ]

ijijeff0902

[The eyes draw back a little, and now you can see that they're (thankfully) attached to a little furry thing who appears to be trying to understand how the laptop works. It looks at the screen where the text has shown up and makes a questioning noise.

Mewtwo's telepathic voice comes through, sounding somehow distant, and weak.]

Stop...touching that.

[Espurr turns halfway and chirps indignantly. If you have a Pokemon or can somehow speak the language, you might figure out that it's refusing to stop and saying something about Mewtwo needing help. Earnestly, the little Pokemon gazes into the webcam and talks at it; again if you know Pokemon it's telling the audience that Mewtwo is sick and needs someone to help.

But even if you don't know what its saying, it's clearly distressed. Help a psychic cat out?]

I am not certain how I feel about a fellow living creature being "given" to me as a "present".

She is much too young to be separated from her mother.

I am in need of assistance regarding a domestic housecat. Unrelated to the earlier epidemic of black cats.

Please come to the music room in apartment building 1 if you have experience with animals. The situation is not urgent, but regardless sooner would be better.

[And if you accept this invitation to hang out with the coolest Pokemon in Saeng Seong, you will find a disgruntled Mewtwo sitting in front of the vending machine. Why is he sitting in front of the vending machine? Because of the cat inside the vending machine. Obviously.]

Luke.

Would you assist me with something? It would be easiest to meet you somewhere.

[Finally, after months of text, there's a voice coming from Mewtwo's post. It's a strange voice, not in the tone but in the way it's transferred from the network directly into the mind. Telepathy!]

I have been asked to relieve the suffering of others... [Actually, the tone of the voice is a little strange as well. That is, he sounds somewhat surprised, in a dazed state.] The voices of the shadows have quieted...I must have been given some kind of gift.

[Hesitation, because this is not something he normally does. He's not actively a hero. But...well...]

...If you need relief...if you need the shadows to be chased away...I am available.

...It is interesting to see that our efforts do significantly alter the city. If you have not been to the new district yet, I would recommend it. It is an enjoyable walk.

However...is it not curious that the city has places that clearly have been inhabited before, yet are inaccessible - even to the natives - now? Before our arrival here, how were these areas powered? Why has it changed so that we must be the power source?

...there is also an animal shelter there. I wonder if the animals here are restricted by the energy problem, as well...

[Pete figured waiting at least 24 hours would be a good idea before stepping out into the open as Peter Parker, considering he'd spent much of the previous day as Spider-Man. He was also hoping that the sizable crowd of new arrivals would also cause people not to give the timing a second thought. After all, it was perfectly reasonable to believe that they were two different people who just happened to get dragged here as part of the all-expenses-paid unplanned vacation, right? It also helps that he sounds a bit different without the mask, and a whole lot less confident and sure of himself. Not to mention about 1000% more serious about things.]

...I guess this thing's working now...

[He'll clear his throat before continuing, in a distinctly not-mumbled tone of voice.]

So, first things first, I guess. My name's Peter Parker, and I'm one of the new arrivals. And I've got some questions. A lot of them are probably the same ones you all have, so I'm not going to bother with those. I just noticed something unusual last night.

Unfortunately, it looks like they're probably telling the truth about this not being our home. I mean, unless the Earth picked up a new moon when no one was looking, I don't think this is anywhere even close to home. Especially since the starts don't look like they match up, either. But that's also what I have some questions about.

[Frankly, this scrawny looking teenager seems to be handling the entire mess pretty well. In reality, he's pretty much still freaking out on the inside, but he's had plenty of practice with keeping a level head in bad situations. Both in and out of costume, because his luck is just that spectacularly poor that it's something that comes up pretty frequently.]

Has anyone noticed any unusual effects of having an extra moon involved? They both seem pretty sizeable, so I figure they've probably got some effect on the planet, sort of similar to the moon back on Earth. So I was wondering if there's anything unusual as far as far as marine activity is concerned. At the very least, it might mean there's some pretty interesting adaptations in aquatic life to look at. As for the stars...I can't speak for anyone else, but I know I don't recognize any constellations up there. Has anyone else had any better luck? At the very least, it might help give us some idea of just where exactly we are in relation to the rest of the universe.

A mishap occurring during a native experiment causes us to be forced into contact with one another. That is quite convenient for a city powered by physical touch, is it not?

I am curious. Who among us have experienced a decrease in temperature, and who have experienced an increase?

[ooc: My apologies for disappearing for a while - all backtags will be coming soon! :D If you'd rather not continue any threads, that's cool too.]

[Voice.]

I-I k-knew it!

[That shaky voice you hear belongs to Luke Triton. Why does he sound so shaky? Because he feels like he's been locked in a freeze for a few hours. You'd assume that'd stop him from complaining about it, but it doesn't.]

I-I k-knew it was a m-matter of time before t-they tried s-something funny! No city that k-kidnaps you from y-your home and traps you b-behind walls can b-be all that good, no matter h-how nice it looks on the outside!

[He'd continue his paranoid rant even longer if wasn't so distracted by the cold.]

W-what did they do to m-me...?

[Action.]

[Luke's sitting outside the apartments, bundled up in blankets. He figured that the summer heat combined with the blankets would do something, but he's still just as cold as he was without them. Anyone who walks past will be getting a miserable look from this kid, but he doesn't seem like he's planning on asking for help.]

I do not understand you people...

[It's a little hard to tell with text, but Mewtwo is in a bit of a mood today. Mostly because he's been feeling increasingly ill as the days go by. Guess who hasn't been hugging people?]

These natives have taken us hostage and cursed us with their own illness, forcing us to help them or risk becoming unnaturally ill...and you go out and celebrate with them? Join them in playing carnival games? Are you all insane, or do you simply have severe short-term memory loss?! I have never seen a better demonstration of Stockholm Syndrome in my life!

[Irene appears on the terminal screen, looking a little bit tired. Her trademark smile is in place soon enough, though.]

Hello, everyone.

It's come to my attention that a number of you are concerned because of the disappearances that have been going on lately. I'm here today to reassure you - everyone who disappeared is safe. They're been sent back to their worlds for the time being.

The reason is that a number of people started showing signs of extremely fast energy drain - quick enough that they would have died within a couple of hours if left unattended. We returned them all for their own safety.

Right now, we're working on trying to figure out why only some people have been affected by this rapid drain. We hope to have more information for you soon.

Also, thank you all for your help in re-opening the Third District. For those of you that may have been wondering, opening the district was the cause of the power outages early in the month; for that reason, we're going to hold off on opening any other districts for the time being, until we're sure that the power levels are sufficient.

That's all for right now. Keep in good health, everyone.

[Technically, the Pokemon had arrived with the others on the 18th, but he had done his best to remain inconspicuous and had slunk away soon after receiving the welcome letter. Feel free to have seen a giant cat monster skulking about in the corner and flying off, but there's no indication that this message is from the same individual. He'd rather keep his face off the network for now.]

How simple life would be if I were unable to feel empathy. Even when I have been taken forcibly from my home and given absurd demands...

But no matter.

I have many questions, but I imagine my fellow captives have little in the ways of answers. So I will ask for your opinions instead.

What do you think of nonhumans? I have seen a surprising amount here that are clearly of other species. It intrigues me...

[Akihiko is standing in front of a terminal, musing for a few minutes on what he wants to say to the others. After he makes up his mind, he touches the screen to access the network.]

Hey, everyone. Listen up!

You all know what we have to do. Being stubborn about it is just gonna get you killed, so don’t even bother wasting your time. We don’t have to hang off of each other all the time! Stick with your friends, or just go shake someone’s hand every once in a while. This energy problem affects everyone, and there’s no sense in making things worse.

[He’s not happy about being stuck in some foreign city either, completely cut off from home, but there’s a mission to complete here. The sooner they get it done and over with, the sooner they can all go back home. Right?]

So, c’mon, guys! [Akihiko lifts his arms and punches one fist into the opposite open palm, while maintaining a confident look on his face.] Let’s help each other out, okay?
