005. [Video, and one other thing]
[VIDEO]
[Well! From the sound of the BGM, Ishimaru is currently back in Violet, though he's apparently holed up in Nondescript Hotel Room #356; he seems to have set the device on the table in front of him, and one of his Pokémon is actually out with him today - admittedly, it's a small pink tapir with flowers on it, and while it's definitely levitating itself it's tethered itself to his hair in a way that makes it look more than a little like some sort of really fabulous Combine headcrab. At least, he doesn't seem to mind - if anything, he seems a bit...lost in thought today. Not distracted, per se, just really contemplative.
And maybe a little peeved. Though that might be just his normal expression, it’s sorta hard to tell sometimes.]
So I've been told that I should probably start dressing like a "normal person."
[...okay, yeahno, he’s definitely a little agitated, though it's definitely more frustration than anger; he seems to realize then that his Munna is back and...well, doing the hair-thing again, and he takes a moment to retrieve her, holding her awkwardly in folded arms.]
While I find the way I dress to be completely appropriate and necessary, apparently that isn’t considered to be the case here! I don't see why - I'm a student, and therefore my clothing should reflect that! It's my profession for the time being, and as such the uniform of my profession is something that I should wear with pride!! It isn't proper conduct to do otherwise!
How...ever...
[Whatever he was going to say after that, he falters quite a bit; just...let him get his defensiveness levels down a little bit.]
...As fashion is something I've never really had a grasp on, I would...like to hear about what constitutes "normal" and how it can be achieved, as one's presentation goes!
Thank you for your time, and even if you don't reply, I want you to keep your head up and your eyes trained forward! Today is going to be a good day, I can tell!
[...yeah he kind of doesn't do "normal" well, um.]
[VIDEO - PRIVATE TO DANGANS, ALSO DORUMON]
[A second video will hit shortly after the first, now that he's finished discussing his hideous social failure; still in the Painfully Generic Hotel Room, still with the same setup going on, but at least he seems in somewhat higher spirits this time around, though he's still holding the Munna and seems determined to keep doing so until he's done filming.]
We've made it back to town as of yesterday - safe and doing well, as far as I know! It will be good to see you all again; hopefully you've all been well and keeping yourselves in line during my absence!

You just Forget Beamed him.
Not in so many words, of course (or, well, technically in many more words, but details), but that's more or less what just happened and he just laughs at that, okay, because he at least understands what that means.]
It's all right - I'm not offended or anything! It happens sometimes, I can forget it if you want; I think I know what you're talking about, anyway.

[He may have improved a lot in more recent years, but the fact remains that John is still kind of am awkward dork at his core. This is just one of those moments where it really shows. His intentions were in the right place, he just lost track of his point somewhere between the steps of formulating and communicating.]
[He breathes a sigh of relief.]
Oh good. Well if it made sense and you could actually follow that garbled mess than maybe you don't actually have to forget it. I just thought that might make it easier because even I lost track of the point I was trying to make, hahaha...
[It's difficult to say "you look like you have the stick of uptightness crammed so far up your ass that it's probably melded to your colon at this point" and make it NOT sound like a bad thing, okay?]
video;
[...that could have been some sort of backhanded insult were it not so damn genuine; as it stands, it's just a little awkward because wow, what's tact.]
I know that people might not like or appreciate how I am already, though - I've never really cared much for their opinions, either. People can think whatever they want! It's just recently that I've begun thinking about it; this is more of a learning experience than anything.
video;
Hehe, well hopefully his way of wording it is a more understandable than my attempt! But it's good that you don't let what other people think get to you. That's a really hard thing to do!
What made you start thinking about it though, if you don't mind my asking?
video;
Ah, discussion at work - no harm meant by it, just a few observations, that's all! It's not anything I've been paying much mind to, overall.
[...which is...why you're asking the network, okay Ishimaru you do that.]
