_{[Jack is in his home, in front of a blazing fire place. A cranky Vulpix sprawls before it and a Purrloin perches above the mantle, trying to remove the stockings that Jack has hung there. Jack is sitting in a high-backed chair, smiling but with bags under his eyes--more so than usual for the spooky-looking guy.]}

Hello, everyone! It's December and you know what that means! So! I'm wanting to know--what do you hope Sandyclaws brings you this year? There's been no shortage of holiday surprises as long as I've been here!

[VIDEO]
[There's a Combusken on your video feed, today, face pressed close to the device, head tilted curiously to one side, one red eye peering deep into ~~your soul~~ the camera. It looks like someone's just evolved and is making use of his new hand...claw...things! That eye stares unblinking for several moments before the pokemon tilts its head the other way to stare some more with its other eye.

Just as the whole thing might be getting totally unnerving, a growling voice speaks up from off-camera:]

Who's ready for a barbeque!?

[Murder Chicken finally blinks and looks away from the camera - presumably up at the voice - with a delighted exclamation of "Combusken!"

And then immediately proceeds to demonstrate its new Flame Charge move, cloaking itself in a sudden and dramatic ring of fire and singeing the 'Gear - which then shuts off seconds later when it's unceremoniously dropped.]

[ACTION]
[When he's not rambling around the town, Krieg can be found hanging out with Murder Chicken most days on Route 37 or Route 42 near the edges of Ecruteak. The trainer/pokemon sparring matches are way more intense now that MC can scratch and kick. Feel free to interrupt - or to be interrupted. Combusken may be Torchic's awkward weird teenage stage, but despite its new look Murder Chicken is just as friendly as ever, and Krieg doesn't really mind when people say hello.]

[ The video starts by zooming on a cute little Pokemon, who cocks her head curiously to the side. Yup, the first Pokemon Rhys has ever caught by himself is a Mareep. The video pans over to focus on himself and, to be honest, he looks pretty goddamn smug. Off to the side, you might see a overweight Meowth with a collar sprawled on the ground, too tuckered to even look at the camera. ]

So, I want you all to meet the newest member of Group Rhys. [ He moves the camera back down, where the Mareep is lying comfortably in the grass, nice and proper compared to that dang Meowth. Despite being just caught and all, she looks pretty happy! ]

I'm just trying to think of nicknames. I'm kinda feelin' Gortys, to be honest. She's...peppy. [ Rhys smiles more genuinely to the camera- it's obvious to him and a few others, this might ring a bell! ] But I'm also thinking about maybe something that hits a little...less close to home. Maybe. I don't know. I'm open to ideas.

So, uh, thanks! Oh and also-

[ The camera pans to the fat Meowth who is sprawled in the grass. ] Does anyone have any good exercise routines for Pokemon? [ As if it knows Money Shot raises his head and gives Rhys a glare. ] No offense, buddy.

I've lost a bandanna of mine. It's green with Ekans all over it. Wore it last night just before I fell asleep and now I can't find it. I think my Gengar has been playing tricks on me again.

[He's sort of wishing he never traded his Ocelot for Kaz's Gengar but it's too late now. Besides, he could put up with the tricks, right? RIGHT?]

I'm in Goldenrod outside of the department store if anyone comes across it. I'd like it back. Not got much in the way of rewards but I can offer some berries or some Potions, since I just bought some.

[Surely, that would be good enough, right? He sighed. Damn that ghost.]

[ For those who may be wandering this particular stretch of the road, Maine can be found walking at night or resting/sleeping beyond the treeline during the day. He prefers being nocturnal here. There's less idiots (like you) on the road when it's dark.

It's... probably safer to risk waking him up, as terrifying as the prospect of disturbing something that stands over six and a half feet tall, weighs over 100 kilograms, and is probably the closest that a bald human can be to a grizzly bear.

Besides, in the day, he lets his three Pokemon wander free. His Flabebe Ragweed has provided him with Dinner, a Bunnelby, and Rookie, an Espurr. They're morons, but they seem to like him - and they keep the other fleabags away from him while he sleeps. They're also his mini-morons, and Maine is fine with this. He doesn't call them morons aloud anymore.

You may recognize him as that terrible janitor in New Bark Town, who seen throwing out plates and should've been fired, or maybe you know him as that terrible clerk in Cherrygrove City, who was literally growling at people and should've been fired.

He gets along better with the fleabags, and Rookie is curled up on his leg, snoozing in the late afternoon sun as a newly-aroused Maine inspects the PokeGear. ]

where's the best city for jobs

[ He's been heading forward because... that's really all he knows what to do. March. But it's occurred to him that aimlessly wandering this dreamscape might not be a permanent ideal. ]

[ The outskirts of New Bark Town. He doesn't particularly want to stay, but no one has explained why leaving would be a good option either. Maine is sitting in the shade of a tree. His Flabébé, now called Ragweed, is on his lap because he has given up, okay? The stupid thing won, but he will never say it. Never. It's lucky he didn't stick with his original name for it, but he was sick of waiting for the various Poke-vet techs to get over their righteous indigence over one measly curse word and treat the blasted thing for "fainting". Again. Again. He's been here only 24 hours, and he knows the nurse's name.

The stupid rat-faced thing that Rags had fought wasn't even that big! Maine only wanted it because it had teeth. It wasn't a flower, okay, and then he could give Ragweed to anyone and still have another pet to deal with... pet things, because here humans are more useless than ever.

He takes out his PokeGear (he is going to start calling everything poke- now. PokeBacon. PokeSteak. PokeHam. Are pokemon food?) and types out a message. ]

[Action - Route 29]

[Getting stranded on Pandora wasn't something he ever expected to be grateful about, but after spending god knows how many months on that hell, this "wilderness" might as well be a preschool playground. His only concern is water, and for all he knows, there could be a stream or something right around the corner.

Finding tinder and kindling is easy enough -- the forest is a great change of scenery from the wreckage, and he doesn't have to break apart desks for wood -- and his new friend solves his biggest problem in two seconds.

As he settles in front of the soon-to-be fire, he strongly considers looking for an axe in the next town; using his pokemon's admittedly sick strength to snap bigger branches every day would seem a little bit... exploitative.]

[Video]

[The feed opens on the first embers of a campfire clear of tall grass, the air around it still somewhat light at the start of the evening. It pans quickly around to settle on the cheerful faces of Vaughn and a Riolu.]

So, hey. If anybody else is coming from New Bark, Skagbait and I made this awesome setup you're totally welcome to join. We're only an hour, hour and a half out. You should be able to make it before it's dark, if you're interested, but we'll be here all night. Come get your campfire on!

[A shot of a ceiling. Smoke is curling up in soft whisps as an excited Tepig looks down into the device. The corner of a singed pillow comes into view shooing the Tepig away. A voice is heard from inside the room.]

Enhance. Damn it, I said Enhance. Why does it only work when Rhys says it? Stupid Atlas hunk of junk.

[A hand reaches out to grab the device. The camera swings wildly before it focuses on Fiona who is squinting down at the screen. She doesn't seem to know that it's already recording. The edges of her hat are singed and there are traces of smoke on her cheek. She doesn't look happy.]

All I want is a stupid map. Is that difficult? Instead, weird alien pigs try to barbeque me while I'm trying to figure out this piece of scrap.

[Tepig tries to help but Fiona doesn't know what to do with it's incessant babble of Tepig! Tepigpig Tepig!]

Hush, you little firebutt - I swear, you're lucky you're cute.

[She rights her hat and tries to work the com again.]

Come in, Vaughn? Sasha? Rhys? Hello? Is anyone there?

[She sighs, rubbing her forehead.] Smart - odds are I just broadcasted my position to every Psycho on Pandora. Just when I thought this day was finally starting to look up...

[There's no video for this broadcast, just audio. Well. There's background noise, anyway, for a few seconds. Then someone awkwardly clears his throat.]

Um, is this... working? [Huh, funny. Isn't that voice familiar? The tone's a little off, but the sound of it's definitely the same as that Jack guy, right?] How... How do I know if it's...

Oh! Wait, the light's on, that probably means people are listening and... hearing me talk to myself... like an idiot. Great. Cool.

[...He quickly clears his throat. Right, yeah, let's not keep talking to himself like a moron, that's no way to make a first impression.]

I mean. Hello there, youuuuu, ah, lovely... people. Oh god, that was terrible. This is... Jack. Handsome Jack. That's... me. In the flesh. I mean, not that you can see that, but--

Just. Just got a quick question. I... These Pokémon things, they're supposed to be like... animals, right? Um. I'm just gonna turn on the video for this, one sec... [And then the video feed clicks on, showing off one very excited Ditto, smiling right at the camera.] So... Seriously, what the hell is up with this thing? This is just... I don't even know. Someone used some jello for a science class and something went wrong or whatever? It's kinda freaking me out a little...

[The Ditto doesn't seem bothered being talked about like this, still looking as happy as can be.]

I... don't really know what to do with it. Do I like... feed it? Does it eat? It doesn't look like it eats, but... don't wanna kill it by mistake.

[ The video starts with a rather...disturbed-looking Rhys staring wide-eyed at the camera. He's more or less bothered by this for a number of reasons. This had to be some kind of weird dream you had when you were passed out cold, but it wasn't turning out to be that way. When Rhys thought he would be waking up soon, something else happened. Like getting this weird Elgyem thing floating around nearby. Or the weird guy who was there to help him out of bed at his house. Rhys doesn't even have a house.

There's a pause at first. ] Uhh. Hi. There. I guess.

I'm, I'm here by some kind of mistake. My name's Rhys, and I'd really like to wake up from this dream now. So far the whole "pinching your arm" idea isn't working and believe me, I've been trying. I have a ECHO arm.

[ He'd probably show off his battle scars, but he's been through enough for a lifetime when it comes to adventures and the injuries you've collected thereof. So he just shakes his head. ]

Any help as soon as possible would be appreciated. There's...stuff I gotta do back on Pandora, and this doesn't really count as any of that.

So thanks.
