First Punch

[craftingrebel]

[Hellllloooo New Bark Town! Here, have a rather unpleasant glare from Kanji as he blinks confusedly at the device in his hands.] This thing workin' yet? Che, finally... [And with an awkward cough Kanji zooms out enough for you to see a Pichu playing happily on his shoulder.]

Where the hell am I? The last thing I remember was that I was talkin' to ma and--Aww shit, don't tell me I'm in the TV world again. Dammit Teddie, this ain't funny! [He pauses as he gently scopes the bouncing bundle of joy into his arms.]

And could someone tell me what this thing is!? It's kinda cu--

EXCUSE ME SIR, I'M GOING TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO PUT DOWN THE POKéMON! OR GIVE IT TO ME.

[Kanji jumps up slightly in surprise as he accidentally drops his gear. Someone dressed up in an officer uniform slowly inches closer.] You stole that pokémon didn't you? Sir, I'm gonna ask you this one more time, hand over the--

What the hell, I don't even know what this thing's name is and you think I stole it?!

The sign says I'm in New Bark Town.

New Bark?! What're you doing all the way over th--Oh... Oh!

[and then it sinks in.]

I thought you were acting a little strange.

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Where else would I be? [He pauses as he quirks a brow.] Strange? Whaddya mean, strange?! I haven't changed!

Last time I talked to you, you were all the way in an icy place! I think.

But now you're in New Bark and you don't know what Pokémon are! There's only one explanation...

[video]

[craftingrebel]

The hell are you talking about Teddie? I was never in an icy place.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

I was getting to that, Kanji!

As I was saying... There's only one explanation! [drumroll, please...] You left and came back!

[dis faise.... 'cause seriously, what?]

[video]

[craftingrebel]

But I don't remember being here before.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

That happens, sometimes! And sometimes it doesn't!

I know it happened to Yuki-chan and Chie-chan, but not to Nana-chan. I'm telling the truth, though!

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Oh yeah, Rise told me everyone was here except for Yosuke-senpai... But that's--pretty messed up. Wonder why it did that.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

Yeah... It's beary puzzling. People leave and come back all the time.

[a pause.]

Like you! You sure you don't remembear anything, Kanji?

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Teddie, if I was here before I'm pretty sure I'd remember somethin' like this.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

I know! I'm just making sure.

I guess you really did leave and then come back again... Just like Yuki-chan... This stuff is so weird.

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Man, you're tellin' me.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

Uh... I guess there's only one thing to say!

Welcome to Johto! ... Again!

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Thanks Teddie.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

No problem, Kanji!

So... You know. Any questions?

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Does this place have places to sleep?

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

Um... There's some in the towns! But other than that, you need to sleep outside. It's like a camping adventure!

The nearest town is... Cherrygrove.

[craftingrebel]

[camping......adventure....... Here Teddie have a disgruntled Kanji face.]

Well, if it ain't anything like the last one I'm game. Guess I'll run into you eventually.

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

You've gone camping before, Kanji?!

[ear twitching.]

[video]

[craftingrebel]

Yeah....

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

Noooo fair! That must've been a really fun adventure...

[except, a small moment of realization.]

You don't sound too happy about that, though.

[video]

[craftingrebel]

It was anything but fun. [Who would be happy swimming in King Moron puke?]

[video]

[usedrawr.livejournal.com]

. . .

But it's camping.
