007. Video/Action for Ecruteak City
[Well, tonight will see another post from Ishimaru, and while the sun has long since dipped down beneath the horizon, the video is lit by an odd, bright purple light somewhere in front of him, and a dimmer red one that seems to be sort of sliding around slowly just out of view somewhere to his left; he's back in that white uniform, simply because it feels weird to him not to wear it, and while he's definitely outdoors, he seems to be rather high up - really, if the texture of the floor he's kneeling on is any indication, he seems to be on a roof somewhere.
Of course, if you're familiar with Ecruteak City, you'll likely recognize the view just barely visible behind him; he's up atop the Tin Tower today.
Either way, however, he seems in much higher spirits this time around; he's sort of smiling, even, though not quite - he's never really done happiness very well as far as facial expressions go, nor has he really done it very naturally - and his words are quick, rushed with excitement.]
Most of my studies deal in concrete fact - the paranormal, the theistic and the unexplained have never been anything that I've found useful, and so while I know a few of the more common myths from my own world, I've been willing to set them aside as just stories! But since coming here, I've met people who can say those stories are a reality - people who have spoken to ghosts, or been ghosts themselves; people who know of the existence of fairies and done magic themselves, or people from other worlds entirely. It's been interesting, if difficult to believe sometimes!
But it also makes me wonder how many of the myths here are true; I think a lot of it is like our creation mythology back home, just centered around Pokémon - people saw the animals here and attributed the creation of the world to their power, when that might not be the case. I think it warrants further study either way, though!
The place I'm at now...they say that one of the Legendary Pokémon used to call it home, but now it travels the world looking for trainers who are pure-hearted. I'm pretty sure that means I'll never see it, but I'd like to become the sort of person where it's at least a possibility someday.
[He'll be up there for some time longer, after the video cuts out and the feed goes dark; he's got his Litwick up there with him, and he's leaning up against one of the railings, looking out over the city skyline.
He also has a rather small Slugma up on the railing next to him; just...try not to knock it off if you join him, that'd make everyone kind of upset...]

[That's so cool, though - ]
Did you see any of them yourself? Were they all that open, or -
[...okay, okay, wow. Just. This is the sort of thing that tends to make people wonder if he's going to have a seizure of some sort, isn't it? Let him try to collect himself.]
...It's good to know that they'll interact with people, at any rate!
video;
No, sadly I missed them. I think I caught a glimpse of Raikou running away at one point? But it might have been my eyes playing tricks on me in the rain. But yeah, they were just out in the open. Save for Suicune, whom Team Rocket had kidnapped. Which is what started the whole mess in the first place.
video;
How do you know about all that, anyway? The...Team Rocket business.
video;
[As much fun as this world is, it is horribly...horribly predictable sometimes. Just like in the games and the anime, if it's something bad? It's Team Rocket.]
video;
[Mnngh.]
I've heard some terrible things about that lot; I wouldn't want you getting involved with people like that, John-kun!
video;
Don't worry, I'm not the sort of person to get involved in something like that. I generally try to avoid them as best I can. Though I could say the same for you though, you know. Avoiding their schemes is usually a pretty good idea.
