thatlittlemoron[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.]

Date: 2015-04-11 05:56 am (UTC)I think it's a dinosaur, if I had my back up database I could look it up! But, a pink, slow, animal following me around.Do animals normally look like this.
[A pause for dramatic effect.]
No, no. The answer is no they don't...I'm pretty sure they don't.
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 06:10 am (UTC)[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.]
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 06:43 am (UTC)Okay, okay I'll play along. I'm real, this is happening. If I wake up tomorrow and this dope face is still staring at me with it's dumb grin then you're right.
[He thought about that for a moment.]
No...I guess all animals look different. Mostly because they have different survival instincts and appendages that set them apart. Even humans are animals, but robots...no we aren't animals. All the humans I've known, save for one, were dead. Brain dead vegetables and I was in charge of them. Not that it matters for much here, because I'm not at Aperture. Even though I wasn't last time I remember and was instead floating through the depths of space. Heck I ran everything back at Aperture...messed it up and things went sour which is why I'm in space, but...now I'm here.
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 07:19 am (UTC)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?
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 07:51 am (UTC)[He shrugs it off and it was unclear if he generally felt remorse or was saying he did.]
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 06:49 pm (UTC)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?
[video]
Date: 2015-04-11 07:44 pm (UTC)Not sure how they are companions when they are...dumb. Oh! he was calling me a moron, which just to clarify I am not. I mean we just met and already he is calling me names. Rude, just an all out hate crime. I don't even know what to call it, Slowpoke, is what the tiny computer said. Speaking of which why doesn't it bloody talk, the computer I mean, it doesn't say much.
[video]
Date: 2015-04-12 04:41 am (UTC)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.
[video]
Date: 2015-04-12 08:18 pm (UTC)[In so many words he might be calling you stupid.]
[video]
Date: 2015-04-12 09:29 pm (UTC)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!
[video]
Date: 2015-04-17 03:06 am (UTC)No computers! Well...that is...well unfortunate.
