victory_road | Video/Action for New Bark Town

[The video opens to an excited teenage girl sitting on the ground just outside “Mom”’s house. She’s twirling a blue piece of fabric that was her mask that match her godly pjs in her free hand and a skitty chases after it.]
OMG, isn’t this the most adorable pokémon you have ever fucking seen? Is this the universe we created? Because lbr, this is exactly the type of pokémon I would think up. And I don’t remember it from the original games or show. Is the goal really to become the very best, like no one ever was? [Guess who loved pokémon as a child. Just be happy she isn’t singing.]

[But now on to less exciting questions.]

The mom part was fucking bizarre. She was super nice and packed me a bag and lunch. But then she locked me out of the house.Is that normal maternal behavior? Because I’m pretty sure it isn’t.
[A brief pause and frown. The skitty promptly attacks her fingers and she smiles. She seems to be speaking more to herself or the cat than the pokégear.] I hope my friends answer this quickly. [If they’re even here...but that’s a problem she will deal with when she gets to it.] Or at least someone more helpful than the NPC chilling in this town. Not that they aren’t nice. [But like the chess people who surrounded her growing up, they made her feel lonely.] Gastrell the Munificent and I have poké-adventures we need to get up to. [Really excited with a broad smile aimed at Gastrell the Skitty.] This is so much better than the last video game I entered. [Not that that’s a particularly high standard.]

[Wow, someone's adapting to the whole "this is a game" thing fast. And those clothes look... familiar somehow.

Analysis takes a backseat though as she bursts out laughing at that nickname]

Gastrell the Munificent!?

There could be no other option as a starter for you. Jane and I were discussing this the other week, actually.

Which reminds me that I have a Meowth put aside. [ For her. If she wants it. Because he purposely caught a cat just on the off-chance she'd actually show.

It's not like Jane and him like her or anything. That's ridiculous. ]

But, Janey, your dad isn't dead. [Is this more timeline bullshit, because seriously fuck that.]

I know that now. Dirk told me. But I didn't know it when the ghost showed up!

It's p great. We win, everyone lives. Even Calliope is saved. But IDK, taking a break to play Pokémon seems like a pretty sweet deal too.

[While it's the perfect starter for Roxy, she can't think of the perfect one for her friends. Maybe she just doesn't know enough Pokémon.] What did you start with?

You got me a Meowth? [Oh shit, it's a cat Pokémon she already knows of. That's adorable.

Of course not. Not like they're friends or anything. But, seriously, Dirk's the best.]

I guess most of my neighbors didn't talk much either, but I wish I could thank her. I've never had anyone make me lunch before.

So, how long have you been having Pokémon adventures?

Alter reality? Or are you asking what the point of the game was? [Are you asking about Homestuck?]

I'm totes assuming you mean Dave Strider and yes I do.

So the ghost didn't actually have to be someone dead, just someone you thought was dead?

Shenanigans in general, yep. [It might be better than actually trying to understand that shit.]

With a name like Espurr, I assume that's a cat. small>[She's getting like ten of those.]

Yeppers. He's a wizard in my mom's books. [She's totally going to take the laughter in stride.]

I guess you have pretty high hopes for him!

[She's laughing because it's so cute!]

I guess that's a good companion to have on an adventure.

_{[Never? That's... sad. But not something that Heather ever finds surprising.]}

I'm sure if you manage to get hold of her, she'd be happy to talk to somebody.

She seems sweet, just... not all there.

I guess? Honestly, I have no clue and I'm fairly certain the darn thing was a Pokemon, thinking back on it.

About six weeks. Give or take a day or two.

Yeah, I don't think there is ever a bad time for a Pokemon adventure. Especially since time doesn't pass while we're here. So it is not like we are even missing anything going on back home.

Though I guess I do miss some of the people from back home... but there's always the hope they'll end up here, too!

Mime Jr. [ Let him fetch her for Roxy to see. Dirk reaches off screen and pulls the Mime Jr formally known as Anne Hathaway up into his arms and into frame. She immediately starts waving. ] She's like a plush little puppet in a hat. [ He fucking loves this Pokemon. ]

[ He shrugs ] Yes. I'll keep it if you don't want it. [ She wants it. ]

Yeah...Pokémon might make more sense. Or maybe not. I never really thought much about it. Y'know, ghosts.

But they're gone now?

[Roxy waves back. A puppet in a hat.] So, she's perfect for you.

And fuck no, you won't. I have think I have an opening in my party.

And is it every bit as exciting as you dreamt it be? [Don't tell her you didn't dream of this.]

[Oh, well, in that case carry on.]

He's already amazing. [She's not biased, you're biased.]

True, any time's a good time for Pokémon. I think that's some time manipulation bullshit I can actually get behind.

Totally, completely gone. Save for the memories, it's like they were never even here.

Whatever is picking the starters is quite adept at it. I haven't exactly seen one I hadn't thought was appropriate in some form. Jane's got this adorable stubborn thing. [ Why are all three of their starters light pink?? ]

I suppose Eliminster won't mind if I handed him over to you then.
