[The feed comes on, but of course…it doesn’t appear to be intentional. A pink paw comes onto the screen, tapping it rather slowly. A voice is heard.]

Hey, hey, you knock it off! Whatever…you are…. What even are you mate…come on? What kind of get up is that, being pink and slow….

[He sighs and moves to pick up the Gear, but struggles a bit as he tries to grasp the device. He continually picks it up for a few moments before he drops it again. His form comes into view and an average sized boy hunches over. Pearl skinned, lanky and a head covered by ginger curls. He wore some sort of science uniform or jumpsuit? It wasn't normally seen in such a setting.]

Oh shit! Snap! Stupid human fingers! Who’s bloody idea was to turn me into a human. Magic doesn’t exist and I sure aren’t in Aperture Labs…. Darn it! Come on!

[With much struggle he finally succeeds and stares back at the camera for a while before turning to look at his slowpoke]

No. Don’t think that way, here you are calling me names when you can’t even do a damn thing yourself.

And just to get something straight. I’m not a moron and I know you weren’t just thinking it, because wouldn’t that be calling the kettle black. Not that I am the kettle…or a black kettle or a pot. Right! The pot calling the kettle black! That is not happening right now.

[Plop and the Gear falls from his fingers again.]

Damn! Stupid humans! Stupid human fingers! What is going on!

[A pause.]

No! I don’t need you to comment on that! [Wait was he actually talking to the pokemon. Thinking that it would respond? Odd.]

[someone sounds... in need of help! Cole tunes in, checks what's going on.

and this slips out first.
]

Magic exists.

[what did the fellow mean, it doesn't? what an odd thing to say, or at least an odd thing to say like you're sure of. but then again, everywhere people hail from here is different, isn't it?

as for the chiding of the Pokemon, Cole just sort of... assumes Wheatley can hear what it's thinking, like he could with his Ralts.
]

--You're not a moron. You're confused, flustered... [right? he still can't feel any of that, but it looks really, really safe to say that based on cues.] I don't know whose idea it was, either, but I don't think you have anything to be afraid of for now...

I hope being a human doesn't hurt you -- that it isn't too upsetting.

[can't they both exist? Cole knows they both existed where he's from!

and... oof, even if he's eager to try, Cole isn't sure how to best respond to that...
]

I--don't know what those are... but I wasn't always human, either. Humans aren't the only ones who can believe in magic. It's in a lot of places where I come from. Many don't like it--but to not like it, they still have to know it. Of it--not how it works, or why it is. Or always when it's magic, or something else.

[buuut if this one's something Cole hasn't even heard of, he could have some perspective of his own, and Cole's curious.]

But if... you don't have magic, then what do you think it could be?

[he lets his head fall tilted.]

[tbh, the "culture rich with centuries of events and beliefs" thing was even more true before he was ever humanish, but that (not) said.]

You-- don't think we're real?

oubliet: (i heard your hurting.)
From: [personal profile] oubliet
I'm real. [realer than ever! and though he can't verify this next one as easily as he could before:] You're real, too.

[he's not sure if he's working towards the right goal, here, or if he's making progress toward any goal at all. he sorta nods to himself, as if to reassure himself he's getting something right.]

Is there a normal way for animals to look?

[another question he's actually sincere about. there are so many kinds of animals, after all. they don't have much in common other than all that corporeal jazz.]

oubliet: (this is all wrong!)
From: [personal profile] oubliet
[thank you, wheatley!

no humans where this one comes from... if there are no other "people" there either, besides ones who somehow aren't animals, then maybe that's why there's no magic there? not very helpful to think out loud about, though.

Because... you messed it up?

oubliet: (could i have done more?)
From: [personal profile] oubliet
[...yeah, it's times like this that being unable to read the actual feelings behind someone's words is frustrating.]

As long as you wouldn't do anything like it again.

[starting that with a conditional doesn't make him feel any better. he wants to believe Wheatley, but...]

--The animals are real, too. And they are very smart here... They're supposed to be our friends-- companions.

Why was yours calling you names?

[the Slowpoke was just being rude, then? a disapproving half of a frown.

also, he shakes his head.

I-I don't know. Are computers supposed to talk more?

We didn't have them where I lived. Anywhere I lived.

[he can't tell that specifically, but he does hear sooooomething he doesn't quite like in the tone.]

We have science.

[his tone of voice is light and friendly, still, but he looks a little put out--not offended, so much as like he's just been told a joke that he can't wrap his head around.]

...But we don't have computers!

OF COURSE MAGIC EXISTS!

[He'll always be out-raged every time he hears that]

How else do you explain the fact you're human now?

Why you've been magically transported to another world. A world of - POKEMON!

[Just how even with his body?]

That's just a plain silly question - yes

[Denzel looks at the other because why would you ask?]

So tell me- [As Crocke fixes his glasses]

What exactly where you before you magically transformed into a human?

Oh. That explains your attitude.

GAH! I don't know how people like you function!

Tch. You're only reminding me, why, I, Mr. Crocker dislike my world so much.

I take it you're newly arrived.

[France coughs, a little awkwardly, before rallying and giving a friendly smile.]

I'm afraid that everyone becomes essentially human here. The means by which have not been discovered, but it doesn't appear to be permanent. We've had a number of instances where people from other worlds have briefly been able to regain their original forms and abilities.

[ Wheatly's post is full of a lot of things William could touch on, but he'll start by regarding the boy's reaction to his Pokemon. ]

I believe your Pokemon is saying its name, not calling you a 'slow poke'.

From: [personal profile] death_glare
Yes. Unfortunately, it seems like we've all been changed into humans by being brought here. It's rather inconvenient.

death_glare: (calm side glance)
From: [personal profile] death_glare
I don't believe there is anyone to speak with regarding the matter. No one has been able to determine just how we all arrived here.

Apparently, we are expected to train and fight with these Pokemon we've all been given.

If you wouldn't mind my asking, what were you before coming here? If not human, that is.

[ The English accent is what's making him curious, since he's from London, himself. ]

That is certainly an important task. Especially one to entrust a robot with.

[ He's not trying to sound rude, really. ]
