seetheflower | ❀ 001. [ Video/Action from New Bark Town ]

Hello? Helloooo?

[ The feed opens to the image of two wide, bright blue eyes staring curiously at the camera. It then zooms out, as Menma pulls the device away from her face. Her finger then appears, to poke at the screen. ]

Can anyone see me? You can see me, right?

[ There's more poking, and then, a wide smile cracks on her gentle features. ]

I'm Menma! Nice to meet you all! I was told I can use this thing to talk to everyone, so~ Hmmmmm...

[ She glances around briefly, before returning her attention back to the camera. ]

So, who wants to catch Nokemon with me? It'll be fun, promise! Let's become friends and have adventures together. Okay? Bye!

[ A soft giggle, then the camera view shakes as Menma tries to find the switch-off button of her new shiny Pokegear. Eventually the feed turns off. ]

[ Action ]

[ Whoever is walking in the streets of New Bark Town can see the figure of a young girl who stands out, more or less, because of her white flowing dress and the fact that she's barefoot. Menma is trotting happily without a care in the world, humming in a sing-song tone in rythm with the music on the background. At her feet, a Petilil is following along in the same chipper manner. One would assume she doesn't know where the hell she's going... ]

Uhu? Why is that? Is a crime organization after them?

... I wouldn't call them a crime one. More like... an organization of people in suits and ties who want to keep their brand safe.

... ... er, wait, no... That just sounds like the yakuza...

Are they evil men? ... And what is yakuza?

...

I... I'm not sure if I should tell you if you don't know... It's very rare to find this kind of innocence...

Why? Is it really so dangerous to know? A conspiration?

... well, depending on who you ask they might think the Yakuza being in charge of Pokemon is a conspiracy... It certainly sounds like it could be one.

... Should I worry about it?

... er.

No, no... I... I think we should more try to focus on you being here, not the strange and usual implications of similar names.

But doesn't it have anything to do with me being here?

Edited 2012-10-14 20:45 (UTC)

... if you being here is in fact related to the Nokemon thing, that's going a bit too meta even for me to wrap my head around.

Meta... I'm sorry but I'm so confused now!

That makes two of us!

... yet I'm fairly certain my confusion flag is planted in an entirely different camp from yours.

Flags? I have a flag here?

[ Pause... she looks around. ]

But I see no flag here, only houses!

Ah... Don't mind those flags! They're the kind that only those with a keen eye or higher level of understanding can see or anticipate appearing! As it stands, they're not a flag you need to worry about being captured.

Do you think I can see them as well if I became a strong trainer?

... eh? Well, I'm sure there are some flags that being a strong trainer would help you clue in on... Though that still might not be the kind most people who use the term would refer to.

Then I'll become the Nokemon champion so I'm gonna see all the flags! I decided!

Somehow I feel like wires have been crossed badly-- That's a very good decision to make so soon after arriving here! Motivation is key, after all!

Exactly! I was a champion before, after all! It won't be a problem to do it again, and this time with real Nokemon to train- it will be so fun!

Oh? So it's going to be a repeat performance? I don't think I've ever met anyone here who has that kind of experience...

Hehe! I played that game so many times, and I couldn't make it to champion without my friends who traded Nokemon with me!

I think trading is a bit on the rare side here, yet regardless of that, having that kind of experience will give you a huge advantage! It's practically like having a pre-order bonus!

Yep! I hope I can find friends here who will help me. I'm a newbie here, you know!

Even if the brand is different, I'm not sure it's fair calling a former champion a newbie...

Eh? Even if I call myself a newbie?
