Video

[The camera feed begins pointed at the ceiling. There’s a voice muttering to one side, the occasional flash of color, then a peering eye. This is followed by a startled yelp and a LOT of color as the PokeGear is flung around. Thankfully that only lasts a heartbeat before it’s caught and finally focuses on a young man with shaggy pink hair; those who would recognize the ferry from Johto to Kanto will notice it as his location. He inspects the screen, then sits back in triumph.]

Ha! I got it working!

[From somewhere off-screen behind him comes a distressed whine, “Ohh, just turn it off Gobo, it’s bad news!” This gets nothing more than an annoyed eyeroll.]

It’s fine, Boober. [Brief glare to one side, then he’s back.] Um. Hi! I guess. This is probably working… Sorry, this kinda- stuff is pretty new to me.

[“It’s new and strange and bad...” comes the worried voice again. Now another young man, this one with a hat pulled so low over his face it’s a wonder he can even see, is pacing agitatedly in the background. Gobo is none too enthused about this.]

So, my name's Gobo Fraggle and this- [A wave behind him] -is my friend Boober. And I’ve been seeing, uh, others? Use this thing to ask questions and I wanted to ask-

[Gobo is briefly interrupted by Boober’s complaining again, about oh how this ship was going to sink and they were all going to die and showing up in a weird world like this was a bad omen and-]

…does anyone have any headache remedies? Normally the Fraggle I ask about this kinda thing- [And another glare Boober’s way, who’s so busy with his moaning he doesn’t even notice] -is too busy with other problems. -Boober would ya sit down, eh? You’re gonna make me seasick.

[Well THAT was the wrong thing to say. Because now Boober is on and on and ON about how they’re going to catch a cold, about all the strange germs and diseases that’re up here, how the ferry was a bad idea and so much water was a bad idea and-

Gobo just groans, sinks his head into his arms and dispiritedly shuts off the feed.]

Really? Wow, that sounds like a very exciting life. What kind of places do you explore where you come from?

Oh goodness. [ She tended to not enjoy caves, because they can get pretty dark. ] So all of those areas are part of your home?

Oh, I see. Still, that must be exciting, getting to discover new parts of your home like that.

[ She nods a little. ] I've never really been like that, to be honest. I've always been a bit more comfortable with things that are familiar, and the unknown usually scares me.

But...it can be nice too, I think. It'd be boring if everything was always the same, so discovering something new can be fun sometimes.

That's true! Sometimes it's just nice knowing that you have people and a place to go back to.
