1st Theory ○ [video//Action for NBT] [backdated to Sunday evening]

[esthetically]

[A red-spectacled young gentleman appears on the screen after a few seconds. He looks... slightly disturbed but more or less serious.]

I’m sorry to intrude, but I’ve actually got quite a few inquiries on this, uh... [World? Virtual Simulation?] ...this place. I’ve already given the trainer information packet a skim over, but I’m not surely meant to believe that we’re in some alternative world, am I?

First--and I do apologize if this question comes off as redundant or foolish--but I’d like to know how it is to return to where I need to be. Tomorrow is an important day for my teammate and myself, and we don’t have time to dawdle. I’d also prefer to do as little stalling as possible, as I would prefer if we headed back as soon as we're able.

[As Rei continues to talk, a young boy's voice can be heard off in the distance causing a whole lot of commotion. Eventually, a head of blond hair zooms past Rei toward the right, and then comes on back toward the left... and then the right. And then the left again. And then Nagisa ends up running circles behind Rei for a few seconds before there's a loud "Aha!" and he shouts out toward his occupied friend.]

Rei-chan! Rei-chan look, look what I caught! It's the biggest mouse I've ever seen! It's so chubby and fluffy! Look!

[With what appears to be a Dedenne in his arms, Nagisa speeds over to Rei and practically tackles right into him.

Just as the Dedenne decides that it really doesn't enjoy being treated so roughly and decides these weirdos need to be punished with a jolt of electricity.]

NAGIS-AAAHHH!!!

[At the shock, Rei's gear goes flying, and clunks on the ground. With that final scream, the gear shuts off momentarily.]

[Slow down with the info-dump Winry, you're making him so excited he can barely think.]

There are so many cool places everywhere!! I wanna explore them already!

[usedwrench]

[SO SORRY. No, actually she will stop with it as she just giggles at that.]

You'll have time to go everywhere, I'm sure. It's a great place with many, many places to go, things to see and Pokemon to catch.

1/2

[hiraoyogi]

Uwah, I can't wait!! I'm going to catch so many Pokemon...!

[hiraoyogi]

--oh no, but what about Haru-chan and the others? They'll be really upset when they find out me and Rei-chan disappeared! But this place is so cool, but we had things to do, but Pokemon, but...

Aaahh, I don't know what to do! Why can't I just bring all the Pokemon home with me right now?!

[usedwrench]

[Oh.... OH RIGHT, HE IS NEW! Okay, here goes.]

Oh, you don't need to worry about that! They actually won't notice that you're gone, this place does that... Imagine it as if time stops back home for you, and while you're here, you still stay home in the same situation where you were when you came here. I know it's sounds crazy, but that's how this seems to work and I've experienced it myself.

[hiraoyogi]

[Very long pause as he tries to let all that sink in.]





I don't get it.

[usedwrench]

It's a really complicated thing to explain...

[hiraoyogi]

Is it really important? I'm not good at listening to complicated things.

[usedwrench]

It's really important, I think, but it's so complicated that maybe learning it in another way might work better for you?

[hiraoyogi]

Mmmmm it sounds like so much work... but I guess I can give it a try.
