1st blade [Video]
[The screen flickers to life, capturing a quick glimpse of the morning sky, bright and blue, before it quickly shifts in a blur of movement-]
-pretty sure it's working.
[And a voice comes through, very close. Thankfully a sign that the video is still going, seeing as now all that can be seen is a dark haze.]
Hello? How about someone that isn't that weird woman in the house claiming to be my mother? [Which is a whole other can of worms she won't even touch, aside from the general information she'd gotten.] I mean, I heard the instructions, so I'm just guessing here. Most of the time I see things like this, they tend to explode!
[The screen shifts, again. On the upside, you can see the sunlight again! And now, a person, with a short bob of curling hair, and an unimpressed look staring down at you. A pokemon - Rowlett, to those familiar with the type - perches on her right shoulder, trilling as it rubs its face into her neck.]
I mean, how do I know if the light means it's working? This is my first time handling a magic mirror like this.
[Hoo? Goes Rowlett, who chooses to barely even look at the screen. Because it seems she's speaking to it. Such things are possible for Disney characters.]
Okay, sorry. It's technology, alright? [A frown, a sigh, but she presses on.] Hello? If I'm reading the map correctly I'm in... New Bark Town? A place I've never heard of. Don't exactly like how I can't remember getting here, or waking up in a bed I didn't pay for. So... yeah.
[Seems that's good enough for her. For now.]

[Today is going to be one of those days, she can feel it already.]
You teach animals to - hang on. [This is entirely too much to fathom upon being booted out of a house by your not-mother. Cassandra is, perhaps understandably, ready to snap back.] Gee, I think maybe you are the first to tell me I'm in another world. Am I trapped here?
video;
Goodness, no. It's something they learn naturally, as I understand it. Though none of mine are capable of doing so.
[He doesn't think so, anyway.]
I apologize. Usually I am not the first to greet new faces. But alas, yes. For the time being, you are more or less stuck here.
