001. Action for Goldenrod City/Video
[ACTION FOR GOLDENROD CITY]
[Well, if you're on the streets this evening in the general vicinity of the Radio Tower, you will likely come across a figure in what looks like a cross between a white gakuran and a military uniform (no, seriously, those boots cannot be school issue, can they?); he's got his arms folded tightly across his chest, almost as though he's cold despite being nothing of the sort, and he's staring rather intently upward.
Not at anything in particular. Just looking up at the sky.
However, if you're close enough (and you're probably close enough because he is pretty much the opposite of subtle), it'll be fairly obvious that he's probably not seeing much of anything despite the intensity of his gaze, given that he's got an impressive amount of tears going on. Like, "that should probably not be coming out of human eyes" levels of impressive. Holy shit. Tears. All over. Like he's seen the face of God or something.
Someone might want to poke him or make sure his brain hasn't just shorted out or something, he'll be here all night otherwise.]
[VIDEO]
[Hello, Johto! Sometime this evening you are being treated to some serious jittercam, courtesy of one of your newer arrivals (after he's come out of whatever trance he was in earlier because good lord almighty there is sky out here). It's not quite enough to make you seasick, but more than enough to make you wonder exactly how it is your life has come to this and who gave the complete amateur a camera before everything seems to even out. The video eventually seems to settle on a rather...uh, severe-looking kid with short, dark hair, red eyes and eyebrows that go forever, and whatever he's doing, he seems deeply annoyed with it, goodness. Who invited the spawn of Satan to the Poképarty...
And then he seems to figure out that he is, in fact, filming, and his response is so immediately joyful it'll give you whiplash if you are not properly strapped in. His grin is open and incredibly genuine, the expression entirely unguarded; he sets the device down on a table in front of him, as he appears to be outside still, and he immediately starts waving at it a bit - both through utter glee and trying to see if it actually is tracking properly.]
Ha ha ha - so it does work! This is excellent news, excellent! Now, if I can get it to -
[His voice is a bit odd - it's loud and enthusiastic, but it's strangely blunted, as though he hasn't...quite worked out how voice inflection works but dammit, he's trying. He reaches out while he talks, the conversation dissolving into rather pleased muttering to himself as he tries to turn off the 'Gear and promptly...uh, sends the video, good job.]
[VIDEO, TWO MINUTES AFTER THE FIRST]
[Well, Captain Eyebrows here seems to have gotten himself under a bit more control, though the amount of volume is still going to make people why he even bothered with a video - surely he can be heard in Kanto by now. He's clearly trying to sound authoritative; the effect is just...horribly shouty.]
My name is Ishimaru Kiyotaka, a student of the 78th annual class at Hope's Peak Academy! It's excellent to have a way to contact all of you, even if the situation that's brought it about is very weird indeed!
Whoever is responsible for this turn of events, I would like to both thank you for your generosity regarding the situation, and yet express my general confusion at what it is you expect me to do here! It would be appreciated if I could thank you in person - or...speak to you properly or knew who you were...hm.
[He...seems to have lost himself for a moment, hang on - ]
At any rate - if I've learned anything in my studies of others, it's that cooperation is the best way to ensure success! If you could introduce yourselves and tell me where it is you come from, I would be very grateful - let's make the most of this weird situation by working hard and working together!
[End feed!
...Ishimaru, please...]

Well, we won't know for sure until we've looked into this world a little more. For the time being we should treat it like we were in the academy; investigate what we can, and pool any information we might find - if anything, it's going to be more difficult here, due to the lack of grates, bars, and steel plates! It isn't anything to complain about, for sure, but it's also going to make our job that much harder!
no subject
[He seems pretty pleased with that. But he does understand what Ishimaru's saying and he nods.]
Yeah, it'll be difficult, but it's nothing we can handle together, aniki! We'll figure this place out!
no subject
It really is good to be outside again, isn't it?! You can actually see the sky here; it's beautiful!
[...]
...at least, I imagine it would be, if it weren't so dark!
no subject
no subject
And we'll bring the others here one day to see it - we'll all be free of that place. They deserve to experience this just as much as we do!
[Well, not...all of them; there's nothing to be done about Enoshima, Maizono and Kuwata. At the same time, as much as he hates to think of it this way, their priorities have to remain with the living - they have to save the ones they can.]
no subject
[Of course that's probably easier said than done. Still, there's reason to believe that they can do this and Mondo seems pretty excited with that idea. ...Even if that does mean bringing Togami here.]
no subject
There's no deterring you, is there? I really don't think it's going to be that "simple"...
no subject
[He seems pretty proud of that, actually...]
Well, no, maybe not, but we've got each other! We'll figure it all out together, aniki!
no subject
And all of that will mean nothing if we don't put work into it! We have an entire city to explore right now, don't we?!
no subject
no subject
[Ahahaha, he approves, despite his words.]
Believe me, my fighting spirit is more than up to the task! Come on!
no subject
no subject
[AND THAT IS FINAL. >:| ]
How far off the main road have you gotten? You mentioned the north and south exits, nothing to the east and west. Is there even anything there, have you checked?
no subject
[Right??]
I haven't really checked, no. I pretty much scoped out the town from north to south last night, so it's possible I missed something anyway. There might be other exits east and west though, so I guess we should look there first!
no subject
[ >:| ]
And all right then! I take it you're coming with me, or are we arranging to meet up at a specific time?
no subject
Why don't we go together? Two sets of eyes are better than one, right? 'Sides, this city's pretty huge and I get the feeling someone's gonna get lost.
no subject
My sense of direction is better than that!
[I mean never mind that he has no damn idea which way north even is right now, that is not the point.]
no subject
[Oh of course that's not the point, Ishimaru...]
no subject
It's decided, then - we'll stay together until we understand the layout a bit better. Come with me, then!
[And he has just spontaneously decided that we are going this way, Mondo.
#leadership]
no subject
Hey, maybe while we're here we can see if there's a bike store! I mean, fuck, this is a pretty huge city, if any place's got one, I'd imagine it'd be the city!
[And he will be sorely disappointed if he can't get a motorcycle.]
