[The gear kicks on and it seems to be flipping through the air. There's flashes of sky, green, and then it's black. A muffled voice comes through next.]

Oh no... did I break this thing already?

[The device is picked up, chunks of snow still covering the screen. It's wiped away and a girl with red hair is seen crouching down and looking at the screen. There's a little black and red striped cat beside her.]

It looks okay. [Anna holds it closer to her face, tilting the screen this way and that till it's pointed at the Litten. The cat looks as curious as its trainer sounds.] It's not made of metal, that's for sure. [The screen is turned back to Anna and she starts poking the screen, leaving finger prints on it.] It feels squishier than glass, but not?

[She pokes around some more. Seems she's getting frustrated.] I don't think Elsa would know what this thing is either...

Oh--!

[ The exclamation is quiet, but it's surprised, with a hint of recognition behind it. Naminé clears her throat before she speaks again. ]

You could ask her--she's here, too.

[sunshineprincess]

[Anna nearly drops the gear in surprise. There's a person on the little screen and talking! What kind of magic is this?

Wait

What]

Elsa's here?

video

[chainbroke]

[ She nods. ]

She is--for a while now, actually...

text.

[torsion]

I only really know what I've been told about it, but it's pretty similar to technology from where I'm from.

Seems pretty sturdy (probably because we're supposed to travel?), but if you are worried I could take a look at it.

Assuming we're around the same place, I mean. I haven't really looked much into how large the area is or travel routes or anything yet.

[ She wants to ask what kind of cat that is, but considering all that she's seen here... it probably isn't even a cat. ]

text.

[sunshineprincess]

[She watches the text pop up on the screen, completely in awe.] How did that happen?

[Carefully, after poking a few buttons, she types out a message, assuming 'SEND' meant sending it to wherever that other text came from.]

There is nothing like this back home.
Please?

[She takes a quick look around.] I'm by the Route 29 entrance.

[arcanaeum]

[ What an excellent start. He's just gonna...let this play out for a little bit before gently clearing his throat to reply. ]

Are you having trouble with your device?

video

[sunshineprincess]

[Ah! There's another face on her screen, though Anna winds up staring for a moment. She promptly squeaks, looking away, looking back, and doing that a few more times before nodding.

Is that blue hair?]

Yes I blue-[gndfsklnarsd]-do! Yes I do!

video

[veggie_vamp]

Oh, you know Elsa? She's totally cool!

[Pun unintentional. And yes. She is in fact answering this upside-down.]

video

[sunshineprincess]

[She's not sure if her screen is tilted the right way, but what if she is and this person is the one who is holding theirs upside down?

BUT THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT! She would find this amusing if this wasn't the second person to point out her sister was here.]

You know Elsa, too?

[video]

[toothaches]

_{[Maurice can't resist helping out what seems to be a newcomer.]}

I think it's made of plastic! Pretty tough stuff, so don't be afraid of dropping it. But if a big Pokemon steps on it, you might have to shell out for another one.

[video]

[sunshineprincess]

[Anna nods a bit, tapping the side of her gear. She's still worried about if this Elsa was the same Elsa a few people have mentioned here, but she's still super curious about the gear.]

We don't have plastic where I'm from.

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

Oh, no, that's plastic.

[The girl who answers is a bit younger than Anna, tired but cheerful, laying on her stomach on a bed. She seems resigned to the fact that an Audino has made itself comfortable on her back, playing with her hair.]

Also, hello and welcome! You must be new. My name is Jane Crocker, and I'm not an expert, but I can try to answer some questions for you if you've got them.

[Video]

[sunshineprincess]

[Whoa! There's a pink and cream colored monster thing on the girls back! Anna's eyes had automatically looked at that before she forces them to focus on Jane.]

Yes. My name's Anna, and what is that thing on your back?

Voice

[meowbel]

Nah, you didn't! I mean, it's going to take a lot more than that just to break the little ol' thing! I should know, I've nearly done it plenty of times!

[Take that however you will, Anna]

Voice

[sunshineprincess]

[So... it would probably survive anything that Anna does.]

Have you dropped it in water?

Video

[bent_the_world]

[Oh. Wow. Korra's eyes widen when she sees Anna on the network, and a smile soon follows. Both because she's missed the younger woman, but also...because of what Anna's absence has done to Elsa. She hates seeing her friend so low and hurting.]

Hey! Uh...don't worry, your 'Gear isn't broken...

[Another case of coming back with no memories. Boy can Korra sympathize. Should she...say something?]

Video

[sunshineprincess]

[Ooooh this face looks like one she's seen in the books. Someone from a sunny country! Or... maybe from a snow covered country? The sun is weird... Anna can't help but smile in return.]

Yeah, I figured as much with all these other people 'calling' me. Someone else said they've done a lot worse.

[The young man with the blue hair (how) was nice and explained things.

[video]

[defyingfrigidity]

[Ever since Elsa last appeared on the network, she hasn't really been in the mood to check things out. Her various pokemon will of course poke around, but they've been respectful of her enough to not shove it in her face. So that's when she knew something was off, when her Gardevoir did indeed practically shove the device in Elsa's face.

It only takes a moment for poor bewildered Elsa to see just what it is that has Frigga so excited, and when she does, it feels like everything else around her just stops.]

... Anna?

[video]

[sunshineprincess]

[Even though Anna had been told that Elsa was here, seeing her sister on the screen was something else. She's both happy and in shock. Happy her sister was here, in shock that her sister was here and did not look like she was all about being regal anymore. People spoke so kindly about her, so... does that mean her sister was more open with others.

Either way, before Anna can reply, she drops her gear once again. Why did you panic??? She's quick to pick it up and wipe it off.]

Elsa... you're here! You're really here! Those people weren't lying!

[islandshore]

[A slightly familiar face, but it seems she doesn't remember. Ah well.

Riku responds to her antics with a soft chuckle.]

Not used to that kinda technology? Well, don't worry. These things are pretty tough, all things considered.

[sunshineprincess]

[Ooooh hair almost like her sisters! Does this mean he has ice powers, too?]

So I've heard. There was a girl I was talking to who tried to eat hers.

Video

[dreamsofahero]

They're quite durable, actually. Though I've no doubt you'll get the hang of using it soon enough.

Video

[sunshineprincess]

[All these people with hair like Elsa's... Anna glances down at her Litten.]

Can they survive fire?

[video]

[styxiedust]

Believe me, she's well acquainted with the Gear at this point.

[This is, in fact, a blue-haired chick just regarding Anna with a strangely familiar fondness.]

And Elsa will be absolutely delighted to see you, Anna.

[video]

[sunshineprincess]

[Oh! Another person with blue hair! And red eyes.]

You know my sister?
