[In the appropriately named Cherrygrove City, there stands a man. A strong man. A capable man. A man who is approximately the size of a refrigerator and radiates a standoffish aura with every move he makes. A man who, despite the school uniform and ripped cap clearly marking him as a student, is undeniably a masculine force of nature, if you know what I mean.
This man is standing on the beach in Cherrygrove City, staring out toward the horizon in a cool and heroic way.
(This man is also flanked by an adorable little Pancham, which is kind of ruining the effect of things but you know what, we can't have everything.)
And as the man regards the unfathomable waves stretching off toward the place where the sky begins, there is only one thing on his mind.
Is this the work of an enemy Stand user?
...
Okay, so technically it's two things, but the other is I wonder if there are any whales out there, and that's bad for maintaining his image, narratively speaking, so let's just pretend like there's only the one thing.]

[You want to talk about ruining the image? Try being an individual in deep and serious thought with the world's happiest Cherubi sitting on your shoulder.]
[It didn't seem to be breaking his concentration, at least. Was this the work of an enemy Stand? At this point, Kakyoin was reasonably certain that anything could be. Even so...wasn't this a little much?]
[...and just a little silly?]

[Ilya wakes from her sleep to find something just slightly off...
Yawning and stretching, she takes a moment to try to figure out why her nightgown feels so tight. It's almost as if the thing shrunk overnight.
Opening her eyes and looking down at herself gives her another possibility.]
... Okay this is different.
[Time to check and see if anyone else had something similar happen to them. Don't mind the strange woman with white hair going around and knocking on your doors, everyone.]
Literally everywhere
[Once she's gotten used to the new bod and figured out what's going on (as much as anyone knows, anyway) Ilya has come to the conclusion that there's only one thing to do.
Bother. Everyone.
And so off she goes, taking advantage of the warping between cities and routes that keeps happening, with the simple goal of sidling up next to someone and spooking them her way of entertaining herself for the time being.
Hey, why not take advantage of the situation, right?]

It seemed harmless enough. [That kind of thinking is exactly what kept getting all of you idiots in trouble in S1.] Besides, it's easier to keep an eye on it like this.

[Ludger had no idea where he was. Or what that little Purrloin beside him was supposed to be. It was friendly enough, so he let it tag along behind him. He likes cats. A nice person that passed him by let him know he was in Goldenrod.
Somewhere along the way he got roped into working at a food stand after letting the owner know that the way he was making the crepes was not the proper way.
So here's Ludger, making crepes. He seems to be enjoying himself. His Purrloin is in front of the stand with a leaflet in her mouth to advertise the stand.]

[Around the various cities and towns of both Johto and Kanto wandered a girl in a well-kept and immaculate school uniform. In her arms rested a comfortable Cubone, and in her hand was a peculiar honey-colored gem she kept consulting for some mysterious reason.]
[There was no readable magical signature, so she was confident that a witch had nothing to do with any of this. But even so,wasn't this too strange to fully let her guard down? It was true that the creature in her arms was strangely like a witch's familiar, but when Mami had tried to ignore it, it started crying hysterically until she gave in and picked it up. Further investigation had shown that similar creatures were in abundance here, as well as other people seemingly in good health. It didn't fully put her mind at ease just yet, but for now the situation appeared stable.]
[Just in case...she approached the nearest person and spoke in a reserved, polite voice.]
Excuse me. I don't mean to interrupt, but are you feeling well?
[Olivine City]
[Though her guard hadn't fully lowered, Mami was reasonably sure things wouldn't come down to any sort of a fight. So she paused in searching for the exit out of this place and stopped at a small café for a cup of tea, Cubone in tow. Drawn either by the smell of cake or Mami's own presence, a group of two Gothita and a Gothorita joined her table outside moments later.]
[A little puzzled by this development, Mami soon realized they were looking at her expectantly and concluded (realizing the conclusion was a bit surreal) that they must have wanted to join her.]
[So that was how a magical girl and her Cubone ended up having a cheerful tea party with highly fashionable psychic Pokemon.]

[While he has no idea where he is or how he even got here, there is one thing that Hans knows for sure. Here is a step up from where he had been headed previously- on a ship carting him right back home under circumstances not very pleasant. Truth be told, the moment he turns to see a small horse with a flaming mane trying to sidle up close to his side (to which he promptly jerks away to avoid his pants catching fire) he assumes that this is just a dream. A particularly...vivid one, to be sure.
Beyond the oddity of the flaming pony he's suddenly found in his presence, the biggest thing he seems to be sticking on is how hot it is here. That's enough of a giveaway that this isn't Arendelle and he knows for a fact that it isn't home, either. Not even close. So the best thing he can do is walk the routes as casually as he can, occasionally approaching someone to ask the question that's probably on their mind as well:]
Excuse me. Could you tell me where this is?
[Otherwise he can be found trying to figure out what the heck to do with the Ponyta with him, who seems very shy and unsure of strangers as she tries to stick close to Hans' side. He's familiar with horses at least, and she seems to be responding well enough to his attempts to calm her. At least he discovered before too long that the flames licking down the back of her neck won't actually burn him.]

[While Shirou has absolutely no idea where he is, he does know that the forest is always dangerous, which is why he's making absolutely sure that things are safe. There's people he needs to find and protect, especially as someone who's meant to be a hero of justice. So when he's spooked slightly by the older (?) girl, he can't help but be on the offensive slightly, having already projected Kanshou and Byakuya in his hands ask he asks in a stern voice, not wanting to hurt anybody if necessary]
Who's there-?
[He's being careful, but it's not as if he cares about getting hurt. Rather, it's more that he does want to get hurt in vain. Especially when he's supposed to be protecting people.]

[Well now.
Unlike most new arrivals in this world today, this one seems surprisingly unalarmed by his current predicament. If anything, his expression is more intrigued than it is shocked or confused as he stands with a Glameow winding slowly around one of his ankles, rubbing against his calf while meowing softly and vying for his attention. She's unlike any cat he's ever seen, but he doesn't try to stop her from keeping him company, either.
Joshua remains unconcerned only because the only thing that feels different here is the fact that, well. This isn't Shibuya, to start. But everything else checks out; he's not feeling drained or weakened in any way, so the only difference here are his surroundings. He can easily tell that he's in the RG, but...where exactly is a complete mystery. Though, in a perfect world, he would rather not be forced to roll with the punches of unexpected circumstance, this one is too curious for him to be too upset about.]
Well well...this is interesting, isn't it?
[It's hard to tell whether or not he's talking to himself or the Pokemon beside him, but she does give a soft chuff of agreement in response as her tail flicks over her head.
Might as well see what this place is all about while he's here.]

[ Wherever you are, before long, you'll here a cry of-- ]
H-hawawa?!
[ There's a tiny Buneary who looks terribly frazzled. It follows its trainer's frantic pacing. Said trainer's arms are flailing a tiny bit, and-- yeah, those are rabbit ears if you were wondering. Don't stare, that's not polite. Didn't your mother teach you better? Unless you don't have a mother, in which case, your teachers are seriously lacking in manners classes!!
Regardless, there's a tiny woman (who very much resembles a rabbit) looking rather panicked, almost like whatever predicament she's found herself in has finally hit. Really, she'd been so shocked that she's existing anywhere outside of a computer that she hadn't really... taken in the fact that her students need her and she's not there to help them. ]
Th-the childwen! What will become of the childwen--?!

[she definitely knows that face. it's not one that she particularly likes, but in a world that doesn't seem to be your own, it seems to be something close enough. fiddling with the earring that she wore, she took light steps towards the seemingly older girl (?) as she tilted her head only ever so slightly as she spoke in her naturally serious tone]
Tomoe Mami. You're here as well, it seems.

[On almost every route and city you may see a rather short-looking man wandering around, not seeming to pay attention to anyone around him. In fact, he seems only preoccupied with staring at his hands for extended periods of time, training his Psyduck despite not talking to it at all, or having the occasional coffee at a cafe.
Honestly this wasn't even the first time something similar to this happened to him, but it was definitely the first time he was stuck in his body that, despite all logic, can't be anyone's but his own, and it kind of bugged him. Still it wasn't enough to not train his Psyduck, whom he already grown kind of attached to.
Eventually, f you're not just seeing Perry wander around, you may see him awkwardly approach you, waving before gesturing to his pokemon. Despite his quietness, he seems to be asking for a battle.]

[Ah, yes. "This seems fine", otherwise known as the source of every one of our early-series problems.]

I'm not going to stop the panda from eating it, if you let it get too close.

[There was nothing that out of the ordinary about this. Not yet, at least.
Truthfully, no matter what planet Peridot suddenly found herself upon after crash landing, it would have not changed her current feelings about the situation. That is, to say, she hates it already. Everything on this planet was different and weird. Including the nosepass that trundled after her ever few footsteps she took.
It was quieter then another certain rock being with a big nose, that was for sure.
And so Peridot started walking, up and down the routes, generally trying to avoid the cities and towns since Humans were gross and primitive. She was still concerned about Jasper, and the ship as she saw it crash. Reaching contact with her escort, and possibly the Gem Homeworld, was top priority.]
....Huh? Grrrr.... Errrgh!! [Noises of severe frustration flew from Peridot's moth as her holographic display once again came up with no signal.] First they break my stuff, and then they leave me stranded here! What next!?

Why, I'm glad you asked! The children will be grounded up and used as fuel for my newest nuclear power plant! Much more cost-effective than "going green" or whatever nonsense they're calling it these days.

[there's a curious look in her eyes. oh, she doesn't remember? or maybe they just haven't met? it's a common occurrence to Homura Akemi, so she's not rather phased. hm. she might as well ask]
I was wondering if you knew the existence of magical girls. [they still existed as far as she knew, but Homura could never be sure if this Tomoe Mami had already made a contract with Kyubey or not. seeing as she doesn't recognize her, it might be the case. but that's only a possibility]

Stay still! You don't expect me to walk everywhere, do you?
Stay still! You don't expect me to walk everywhere, do you?
Oh-
[What an odd question. A little too blunt, when secrecy was something of an unwritten rule, but straightforward enough that Mami caught on quickly.]
Yes, I have. I'm sorry, I was just a little confused for a moment. Are you one of Sakura-san's associates?

[and here, hard at work Perry will see one Ash Ketchum and his Pikachu (who is currently on his shoulder) and when he sees him approach the young trainer and making those gestures, he can't help but smile]
So you're asking for a battle? [the kid sounds pretty determined, if you ask him] Alright! What kinda battle d'you wanna do?
So you're asking for a battle? [the kid sounds pretty determined, if you ask him] Alright! What kinda battle d'you wanna do?
[oh. well, that clears things up quite nicely for her. instead of remaining hostile, homura puts on the brightest of smiles, regardless of how worn out she was]
That's fine. Sakura Kyouko is a classmate. [a beat] Have you heard of the names Kaname Madoka and Miki Sayaka?
[still continuing to be blunt over here]

[Hope you've enjoyed yourself for a while, Hans, because that's probably about to get ruined.
Elsa, thankfully, has stayed in Olivine City so far since this strange mess started. She may be getting used to how things work in this land, and isn't really fazed by much anymore, but travel like that... she's not going to even attempt to leave the city until this is all over. That will be for next time, maybe.
What she is fazed by, though, is seeing him. Seeing Hans again, after all these months, was like being punched in the gut with the full force of her memories of her disastrous coronation, and... well. That never means anything good, when Elsa is this upset. So Hans might notice a sudden sharp drop in the once balmy temperature, and a voice - trying very hard to remain even - coming from behind him.]

In the remarkably short travel time around this land, should Peridot find herself on the shores of Olivine City, the once calm ocean waves will suddenly rise up and fall straight towards her.]
