2nd Theory ○ [video]

Ah... [There's an indignant sniffle. Rei is not pleased.] So I've been here exactly seventy-one days, and never have I come across a circusmtance related to my experiences from this past weekend. For those who have been here for years, is it a relative occurrence to run across so many new visitors, or, well...

Attempted kidnappings by balloon-shaped pokemon? I've been trying to study them since I awoke on the outskirts of town but I've yet to actually come across their name just yet. [He grimaces. He's still a little sore about that one.

But a second later, he takes a deep breath. He's all serious business today.] I also... wanted to know. Is it common for a friend to return home during these circumstances if they were here before the weekend? A friend's sister, Gou Matsuoka? Red hair, normally kept in a ponytail, very vibrant personality... I think she may have gone home, but under the circumstances of the weekend, I'm not certain.

[He nods.] Same. I've never been much of a party-goer myself, but...

I wonder if something we all consumed had been tampered with in some form.

_{[At that, Jack can't help but cackle. OH IF ONLY, Rei. If only.]}

Is that such a preposterous idea? [He sighs.]

It'd be the simplest... were we able to see who.

After my years-long battle with bewitched ledges, I'm afraid something in the water would be too mundane an explanation.

The... ledges?

[Seriously, what is wrong with this world?!]

_{[REI, YOU ARE LUCKY to have encountered Jack during a time that will forever be known as the Ledge Victory Years.]}

For years, there was nothing anyone could do to cross any of the ledges on the routes between cities. You could hop down one, but you could never climb up one, no matter what. Now, with the arrival of some little green goats, we don't have to worry about that.

The... little green goats?

Wait, you mean the ledges are honestly incapable of being traversed back up?

[How does that make sense?]

That's right. There's no point in questioning it in a land where sharks fall from the sky.

Ah... yes, those. [He was trying to block those out.]

...I truly think this world has crossed all theoretical levels of logic.

_{[Jack lets out a dark chuckle.]}

Logic. I remember logic. Aw, well, the weirdness of it all can still be fun!

This is true... I must say, despite the nonsensical and whimsical nature of, well... everything, I haven't had a completely awful time.

Past the attempted kidnapping by pokemon, and all.
