[VOICE]

[So, Luceti! This post starts with a groan as a wayward ＰＫＭＮ ＴＲＡＩＮＥＲ wakes up in the middle of the woods!] Huh...?

[Well, that's odd. He didn't really remember falling asleep at any point, and even if he had... Route 121 shouldn't be this cold, right? Well, whatever. He can just check his map to see where he went off-course! Except, y'know, he immediately realises his Bag's missing. Which means he doesn't have his items. ... Or his Pokémon, for that matter. Oh, and these aren't his clothes, either.]

[Now, a lesser man might panic, but not Brendan! He's definitely not shaking because he's unnerved! It's just the cold, that's all!!]

[After about a minute of essentially flailing for anything he can use, he manages to find his journal and, after a few experimental clicks, gets the gist of how it works (mostly. the guys who dumped him here must've left it here to taunt him, right?)!]

O-kay. I have no idea who I'm talking to  [or if this is even working.], but that's not really important right now! Any one of you wanna tell me what kind of creep robs a guy and leaves him in a forest like this? Because I could use an explanation right now.

[Pause!] ... Knowing why it's snowing in the middle of Summer would be cool too, I guess.

[SOMEONE DID INDEED SAY FOREST. MIGHTY SOURCE OF GREEN MANA UPON TAPPING AND ALL.

Man, it's really cold out here... good thing no-one's here to see him shiver! That'd be all kinds of humili--

Turning at the sound of that voice, he turns! It's a cute(!!) girl but... he has no idea what she's talking about. Still, as an upstanding and awesome fellow, he should let her down gently!]

Uh... Sorry, but it sounds like you got me mixed up with someone else.

[FABULOUS. BUT NOT-RUBY FABULOUS. DELICIOUS FORESTNESS.

"Let her down gently"... What are you doing, rejecting her?! Gosh, rude. Once Brendan speaks up though, she tilts her head to the side a bit. Mixing him up...? Well, he doesn't really sound like Ruby, after all but... Still! He looks so much like him. Guess it really is just like the case with Gary and Green. Siiiigh.]

H-huh? Oh... You look a lot like a friend of mine from back home. [...] Um... What's your name?

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[FORESTS ARE NOT KNOWN FOR THEIR FINE FLAVOUR.

He's rejecting the reality of being her friend so it's the same.]

Huh... weird. [To think another as awesome-looking as himself could exist in this world...] Anyway, name's Brendan, of Littleroot Town!

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[SURE THEY ARE. THEY TASTE LIKE CHRISTMAS TREES.

Littleroot Town? ...Eeeeh Ruby wasn't exactly from there, but he did at least move there. --Oh hey, that at least does confirm that he's a Pokémon Trainer too! Or that he's at least from the same world that she's from. Yaaaay.]

Huh... Well, it's nice to meet you, Brendan! My name's Yellow, and this here is Chuchu. [Standing beside Yellow, Chuchu waves to Brendan. Hi hi.]

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[SO... LIKE BARK.

Well he moved there too!!]

Same to you two! [D'aww.] Y'know, I haven't seen a Pikachu in a while! You get him at the Safari Zone?

[Action for Not-Ruby] >8C

[moehealer]

[WOOF.

Well damn. At least Yellow doesn't know this. She'd be mindfucked all over again!]

Nope! I found her in [magicpokeland] a forest a while back. [A beat.] Do you have any Pokémon too?

[Action for Weird-Girl] H)

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[... Not that kinda bark. No buttwiggles.

Yayyyy mindfucking MellowYellow.]

I got a team, yeah! Not a clue where they got too, though.

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[/wiggles butt]

Well you're new here, right? They're probably either roaming around, or they're just not here yet. Chuchu showed up with me, but I didn't find Dody and Ratty until a while after. [She holds up her Pokéballs with the latter two as she explains.]

[Filthy.]

Yeah... you mind explaining this place to me? I'm a little lost at that. [So many nicknames...]

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[wiggle wiggle wiggle.]

Oh right, sure! This place is called Luceti. These people called the Malnosso brought us here to do experiments on us, and they're really weird. [And the last one was terrifying.] And people come from all different kinds of worlds, so nobody has Pokémon either, except for the other trainers like us.

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[You wanna stick or something.]

Uh... Might wanna take a step back there. These Mallie guys did what?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

Oh. [Whoops.]

Um.. They brought us here from our home worlds to do experiments.

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[>other worlds
>trans-dimensional assholes
>what]

Y... you're kidding here, right? I mean, what kinda guys would even do that? How would they even do that?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[She shakes her head a bit, scratching it awkwardly. Ummm.]

Nope, that's really how it is. Nobody really knows how they do it though, so... [it is a mystery]

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Huh...]

Man, that's gotta suck... [That's some Champion-level reasoning there, folks.] So how do we get out?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

W-well... We can't. [To put it bluntly. Um.]

There's a barrier around here too that we can't get out of either.

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Oh Yellow, you so silly. For a second it sounded like you were implying he was stuck here!]

So? You just smash right through it... right?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[Oh Brendan, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying he wasn't stuck here!]

Nope... Nobody's able to do that. [The moon sure got through it but... that's completely different.]

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Oh Yellow, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying implications!]

Then, what? We're supposed to just... stay here?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[Oh Brendan, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying a lack of them.

A nod.] Yep. Since nobody's found a way out or anything, we're well... stuck.

[Action for Weird-Girl]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Oh Yellow, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying >notgreentext!]

S-so we're meant to just stay here!?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[Oh Brendan, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying that I know how to make green text!]

Mhhhhm. Until whenever we're sent back home, at least.

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Oh Yellow, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying you know how to do anything!]

... [Okay Brenbutt, ignore how horrible that is. Ignoring ~feelings~ is eeeeeasy, remember.] Then what are we supposed to do while we're here? What about the people back home?

[Action for Not-Ruby]

[moehealer]

[Oh Brendan, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying RUUUUUUUUUUUDE.]

Whatever you want to do, really! I usually just explore the forest. But there's a Battle Dome here if you want to train your Pokémon, and you can always do that with the other trainers too.

As for those back at home, um... It's kind of confusing... [Red explained it to her and even he sounded completely confused on the matter.] But basically it's like time stopped there. So when you go back, it's as if you never left.

[hoennian.livejournal.com]

[Oh Yellow, you so silly. For a second there it sounded like you were implying URUDE.] So... lemme get this straight:

A bunch of people that might be scientists have kidnapped me for their evil experiments. Except they don't really do much experimenting, so instead most of the time I get to spend my days doing whatever I feel like, and when they let me go it'll be like I was never even here anyway.

That right?
