route_1065 | And The Walls Came Tumbling Down

[Greetings, residents and visitors alike. Are you poorly dressed today?

Well, hopefully not, because in the event that you are, you might just end up being judged with the unholy fire of a thousand suns for whatever travesty it is you have on, courtesy of a very short (yet impeccably stylish) woman in black and her accompanying Psyduck, which appears to be approximately half as tall as she is herself and in great pain...presumably from whatever horrific shitshow of an outfit he is currently bearing witness to at the moment.]

[Well, this was rather unfortunate. It's not like the Super High School Level Princess was necessarily a stranger to waking up in unfamiliar places; after all, being kidnapped to be used as a bargaining chip against her kingdom was something that she had grown accustomed to, as sad as that may be, and though she had thought things were finally starting to take a turn for the better when it came to the Future Foundation, clearly, someone had other plans. This was obviously nothing close to Jabberwock Island, and yet, this region is nowhere like any place she had ever seen before, least of all Novoselic...the more she thought about it, the more questions she had, but, at the very least, she wasn't alone.

After all, she had been given the ability to summon this charming fellow from an odd red-and-white orb (Perhaps through some kind of unseen covenant? The details are still a little unclear, but this "Poke Ball" must be quite "hella" indeed, if it's able to summon a being without any sort of ritual!), and she was positively enamored with him from the moment she laid eyes on him! Clearly it was meant to be some kind of wicked spirit, bound to that peculiar stone...if Gundam were here, she knew that he would be just as impressed with the creature, for it no doubt had limitless magical potential and might very well be able to give the Four Dark Devas a run for their money (though she'd never dream of saying that to his face). However, first things first, she needed answers...and if there's one thing she learned from her time on Jabberwock Island, it's how to properly investigate, and that's precisely what she'll be doing!]

I beg your pardon, but, I appear to be a bit lost...if you wouldn't mind, may I have a moment of your time to answer some questions?

[There are some things that Kuwabara believes he's gotten used to. Fighting demons, camping outdoors numerous days in a row, being chased by fire-breathing dragons? He's got that covered.

But this thing?!

He can't stop his own shuddering. It's just staring at him.]

J-just what the hell are you, man?!

[Naw man, he ain't about this life]

This wasn't the first time the boy called Caleb had found himself here, so he wasn't in such a confused state as some of the other new arrivals.

All of this snow, though.

The young Ishbalan had arrived standing in a park in Goldenrod, and was shocked to see just how much of the frigid white stuff covered the ground. He knew what snow was, obviously, but he'd never actually seen it. Certainly not so much of it...

Distressed with this development and still in his Ishbalan robes, Caleb stepped slowly and carefully through the snow, trying to make his way (hopefully) indoors. It was wet and uncomfortable outside, and the snow melting on his nearly bare feet was miserable. How could people live in places like this?

[Unlike most of the people showing up, Neku isn't that put off. Mostly because he's already been here- to HIM only two and a half weeks ago.]

Wow, really?

[He goes to look for his pokeballs and- oh, they're gone. Even Bell. Damn it... that's kinda sad, actually. But touching his belt he does notice his pins are still there, not that he thinks they'll work here.

Oh well, time to see if anyone he recognizes is still in Goldenrod- and try to avoid any of his ex-coworkers]

[Things are kinda weird suddenly. For one thing, Elliot isn't at home watching a movie. For another, there is a Charizard following him. Most likely reason: supervillain or sorceror is screwing with people. The best thing to do would be to transform into his superhero form and keep on the alert.

...But being in superhero mode is kind of notable. If he's gonna lay low, he'll have to appear totally inconspicuous while still having quick access to his superhero form.

And so, with a giant dragon begrudging following behind, Elliot goes full on Clark Kent mode. Better than party mode, at least for this situation.]

[When you're lost and unable to find anyone to help the first thing to do is to sit down and wait for someone to find you, which is exactly what the odd girl in the loli getup is doing...right in the middle of the path. Sorry if you're trying to walk there, but she's not moving until her Papa (or Schreient) comes for her.

Instead, she seems to be having a very pleasant conversation with the Buneary that's standing in front of her.]

Why didn't you move for Tot before?

[Anyone want to explain things to her?]

[How the hell did he get lost? Laharl thinks to himself taking in his surrounds. He was pretty sure he was trying to land that comet he was on in the castle courtyard. This place sure has hell wasn't it, the air was too clean and the bright sun certainly shouldn't be there in one piece.

So what to do, he could start ranting and blowing up stuff, but why waste his time when there is no one to see…Except there is one thing here, a rather dinky looking hellhound.]

You mutt! Do you know how,I the great and mighty Laharl, ended up in this crap hole. If your answer pleases me, I might make you my vassal instead of slaughtering you.

[The poor houndour isn't sure how to react to that, he is her trainer, so she already works for him. She tries to explain in a series of bark. He blinks at her responses]

Uh huh, right, got it. [He sighs] I can't understand a word you're saying!

[So what hell is he suppose to do. It feels like he's in some human world, but there is clearly a demon here. Maybe he should go find some humans and beat the answers out them.] If you can't talk point me to someone who can, mutt.

[The newly named Mutt gives him a look that screams “really” before heading off to the nearby town. Why did she get such with this shirtless weirdo. Laharl on the other hand stops walking, he has a wicked grin on his face.]

I have a better idea, if they don't give me any straight answers, I'll just conquer this place and make them take me home. That will prove to everyone how glorious I am. BWAHAHAHA

[So there's a princess roaming around Johto in more than a bit of a panic. ...Well, in all fairness, if the last thing you remembered was not only trapping your sister in an urn while under a magic spell but also being frozen solid by your aunt (who, by the way, you only just found out existed and is most definitely evil), you'd probably have more than a few questions yourself! The only things she knew now were that she was in a strange new place with lots of interesting people and creatures she's never seen before in her life...but that definitely wasn't helping her with figuring out what happened with Ingrid, or Elsa, unless she took the time out to question everybody. But, gosh, where did she even begin...

The small red lizard that had been keeping her company since she got here had seemed friendly enough, though! But questioning people seemed like a far more option than just, well, venting to it, so one might find her going about pulling people over and asking them what probably amounts to way too many questions way too quickly. It's kind of frustrating hearing people say the same thing over and over, though..! At least the music's kind of catchy...]

[The young man is warding off the cold with a thick grey hoodie underneath a brown suede jacket, his breath curling into steam and his hands shoved deep in his pockets. Luckily, his face is kept mostly warm by the scruff that peppers his jaw. The red and white hat on his head has seen heavy love over the years, stitching worn smooth and in some places on the bill near to fraying.

He seems to be taking any and all weirdness totally in stride, as does the Floatzel who's a constant presence at his side. Out on the routes, he's most likely sitting astride an enormous but docile Arcanine. He's got a warm smile for everyone, despite the cold, but especially if he recognizes you!]

((OOC/Permissions: So since this Shaun has been in Route for 10+ years, the easiest way to handle it is: if your character is still in game, unless you specify otherwise, he'll respond as if they're still in Johto. If they've come back to visit for fourth wall, he'll obviously be happy to see them, and again unless said otherwise, will respond as if they're not in the Johto he's from.))

[HELLO JOHTO.

You might notice the wind picking up significantly (THANKS ASSHOLE) in the already chilly weather, but it's pretty hard to be mad at the grinning redhead who seems to have caused it. He's made friends with the local wildlife, flanked by the standard bird-types of pretty much all the gens, from Pidgey to Starly, and the best part is... it looks like he's flying with them without needing to be on one of them.

Whether it's the wind or he's just that goddamn loud, his voice certainly carries, a bright and cheerful laugh.]

C'mon then, ye'll have ta be tryin' harder than that t'keep up with ol' Jin!

[Well it's been a while since he's been here, hasn't it... To say that Lee's suspicious would be an understatement, but at least there aren't any walkers here. And the Braviary and Taillow traveling with him are (understandably, given how long it's been since they saw their trainer) reticent to let him out of their sight.]

[Who's this weirdo with white hair, bare feet and a giant walking stick?

...Not to mention a giant ice cream cone flying beside his head?

..........And are his own feet actually touching the ground at all...?

You might have time to puzzle over these things. Or you might just be greeted with a snowball to the face before you have the chance.]

...He did it!

[Gesturing to the ice cream with his staff, upon which the dessert just looks affronted and makes an indignant tinkling sound.]

((ooc: invisible-unless-you-believe-ness completely optional! take your pick))
