Video/Action for New Bark Town

[red_roses]

Hello...? I don't know if anyone I knew before is still here, but, um, if you are....I guess I'm back...?

O-Oh, right. My name is Ib. I remember being here in Jhoto before- I had a full team of Pokemon. I don't mind if anyone has adopted them....but I'd really like to know if they're doing okay. I had a Ralts, a Charmander, a Teddiursa, a Vanillite, and a Ditto. I had a Buneary, too, but I got her back from Professor Elm.

Oh! My Ditto, Copycat, is what's called a "shiny." It means he's a different color from other Ditto.

Th-Thank you so much!

'The last time'? I believe I'm a bit out of the loop...

[Still, since she seems to like it and it really hasn't caused any trouble, Garry pets it along the head. The attention is much appreciated, apparently, as the little Charmander wags its tail.]

[GCCCK DAMMIT

swallow back your words a bit Saionji]

Just curious. [SMOOTH] This world works in strange ways, so I guess you might be telling the truth. I'll be so kind as to believe you for now. [Unless you're that kind of nine-year-old...] I thought Dittos couldn't hatch out of eggs, though.

A new species showed up all over the place for Valentine's Day. Some sort of slug that left slime everywhere. But route 29 should be all cleaned up by now, so your journey should be safe enough.

[red_roses]

Yes, I was here before. I know a bit about how things work...

[red_roses]

Don't all Pokemon come from eggs?

Re: [video] fdsafdsafasd yes snot dragonssss

[red_roses]

Eeeew!

[video] They were beautiful. And slimy.

[captainash]

Haha. They were very friendly, though. I helped created a pond for a few of them, and they thanked me with a hug.

[artificialrose]

Really? Ah, then it's almost like before... [He smiles a little.] When you taught me about the roses. I'll have to listen to you this time, too.

[It might be a bit silly to put so much trust in a nine year old little girl, but he knows she would never let him down.]

[konpeitoqueen]

...Don't Dittos split in half into two or something?

[limited science and knowledge gg]

[red_roses]

Oh, that reminds me....[She produces her rose.] Do you still have yours as well?

[red_roses]

Maybe? Maybe only the special ones come from eggs.

Re: [video]

[red_roses]

I don't think I'd like the way that would feel!

[artificialrose]

It's one of the first things I made sure I still had.

[Even if it... shouldn't have the same affect as before, should it? Regardless, he twists a bit to pull it out from the back of his obi and holds it out to her.]

Safe and sound.

[konpeitoqueen]

Maybe.

[Good God she hopes this kid is just as innocent when she grows up because she will be so easy to make fun of, big shiny eyes and cute little 'be good' demeanor.]

What's your name, by the way? [For future reference.] I'm Saionji Hiyoko! SHSL Classical Japanese Dancer.

[video]

[captainash]

...Yeah, that part wasn't so great. It took days to get the slime out of my coat, too.

[red_roses]

....What do you remember from before coming here? Did we...escape?

[red_roses]

I'm Ib. It's nice to meet you. What's SHSL mean?

[video]

[red_roses]

[Yep. Horrified.]

[artificialrose]

I still remember, don't worry. This isn't exactly the way we promised to meet up... Ah, but I did manage to clean your handkerchief before all of this.

[Priorities.]

[konpeitoqueen]

[YOU BETTER BE IMPRESSED, KID, OR ELSE.]

SHSL means Super High School Level. In my world, SHSL is a title given to those who are the most talented in their field across the whole planet! The best of the best! So, I'm the best Classical Japanese Dancer in my whole world.

[captainash]

...But now the worst you'll have to deal with is a few Rattatas, don't worry.

[red_roses]

Oh! [She hadn't even thought about it much.] See, sometimes people come here from the same home, but things are different. Um...it's kind of hard to explain.

[red_roses]

You're in high school?! [BUT WE'RE THE SAME SIZE WTF]

Re: [video]

[red_roses]

....They're really gone?

[artificialrose]

I see... Well, it can't be anymore strange than the other things we've seen. Are there more of these little creatures around?

[He scratches his Charmander behind the back of its neck to make his point. That earns a happy little noise, its tail wagging back and forth slowly.]
