[The video opens up on a boy shrieking and crying, and from the camerawork it's definitely a Pokemon holding the 'Gear. Regal the Braviary is trying to calm him down, but it doesn't look like it's working. Tobias is just curled up in a ball, trying to get himself to stop screaming, but it doesn't look like that's working well, either.]

[The large furry paw passes it over to something with large blue claws, who types carefully.]

Our young Trainer needs some aid
Some comfort here indeed
So if you all have some ready made
We have a most great need.

[Being tossed shade by a giant bear instantly makes Rakka shrink back as well. Maybe that was just too far.]

..."They"? W-who do you mean, Tobias?

[wing_attack]

Th... the ones who captured me.... the Yeerks...

[charcoalfeather]

"Yeerks"...?

[sounds gross]

[wing_attack]

... Aliens.

[charcoalfeather]

A-a.... [What can she even say to that?]

[wing_attack]

... It's fine if you don't believe me.

[charcoalfeather]

No!

[that may have been a bit loud. Like a river of words being enclosed by a damn, Rakka's voice instantly dipped.]

No, I... I believe you, Tobias. there's lots of things I can believe.

[wing_attack]

... It's fine. It... it sounds kind of crazy, anyway.

[charcoalfeather]

...what doesn't?

[she laughs, a little. Barely.]

I-I mean, we're in a whole new world right now, Tobias.

[wing_attack]

I... huh? What do you... mean?

[charcoalfeather]

This world, the one we're stuck in, it's new to both of us. But, uh, probably more to me then you.

My home was so small compared to here. The one I can remember, at least.

[wing_attack]

... Was it? What was it like?
