✩ FIRST DISCOVERY | VIDEO | BACKDATED TO 2/9

[adai]

[The video feed opens on a boy sitting on a bench. It looks like the sun is setting already, so either someone got a late start today or this boy only just learned how to use the 'Gear. The boy isn't really all that remarkable, outside of a very serious expression. The background appears to be New Bark Town, so get ready for some of those New Trainer Questions.]

Hello. I was told I should talk to this device to get some answers about this place.

[He rests his hands on his knees and leans forward, still staring the device down.]

Why are there houses on the surface?

[...Well apparently we're just going to get straight to the point today.]

It should be dangerous for anyone to live up here.

[He's silent for a long time, still staring at the device like it's going to magically give him some answers. A beep comes from the 'Gear which seems to startle him a little.]

I also want to know about the creature that came out of this. [Rossiu holds up a Pokéball.] It was pink and blue and immediately went into this strange device. It won't come out.

[That doesn't seem to bother him all that much, actually. His very serious expression hasn't shifted at all. After another few seconds of silence, Rossiu glances upward at the snow still falling.]

Finally, what is this? I've never seen anything like this before. It's much colder than it is back home.

[At least he's dressed a bit better for the snow than most of his friends...]

Thank you for your time. I would appreciate any information you can offer.

[He figures that if the rest of Team Gurren are here they'll get in contact with him. With that, Rossiu gets up from the bench and leaves and the 'Gear turns off.]

If you had a bomb shelter or something? That'd work for awhile.

[adai]

A bomb shelter? What's that?

[chickshades]

A big metal room, usually hidden underground in the woods or something. And you keep all kinds of stuff you'd need to survive in it. Food and guns and shit like that.

[adai]

Huh. That sounds like it would be very useful. But living in one room for a long time... that sounds uncomfortable.

[chickshades]

Better than getting eaten by zombies!

[adai]

Well yes, that's very true...

[chickshades]

I don't think there's zombies here, though. Or those beastmen things. Though, I guess some Pokemon can be kinda intimidating looking.

[adai]

I'm glad to hear that. I was told that there aren't beastmen, but it's also a relief to hear that there aren't zombies.

[How did we even get started talking about zombies??]

[chickshades]

Yeah that'd be fucking annoying to have to deal with.

[ idek anymore. ]
