[ The feed crackles, turning on with a scuffling noise. A faint clinking of what might be silverware can be heard, and after a pause, two voices. ]

Such a backwoods establishment...is your training progressing smoothly, Miss Kneesocks?

Indeed... More smoothly than I had expected, given the standard rate at which our colleagues in training have progressed.

My, how fortunate! Could you have been gifted with a more talented Pokémon? Or do the others’ issues lie elsewhere, I wonder...

You may be onto something, dear sister... Perhaps the discrepancy is caused not by an excess of ability in our Pokémon, but a lack of ability on the part of our peers’...

[ The higher-pitched voice gasps in apparent concern. ]

A tragic case of neglect, isn’t it? Such sophomoric boors shouldn’t be trusted with hermit crabs, let alone caring for intelligent beings. Doesn’t anyone here practice proper discipline? Are there no rrrrrules to training at all?

Well said, well said!-... Ah, dear sister, it seems we’ve left the recording on.

Goodness, what a dreadful mistake.....

[ A moment’s pause. ]

...the battery might run low!

[ And with a click, the feed ends.]

[[ ooc: green is Scanty and blue is Kneesocks. If you have a preference for who responds please let us know, otherwise replies may come from both or either! ]]

I don't think you have to worry too much about the battery.

Oh? Did you hear something, Miss Kneesocks?

Perhaps it was just the wind, dear sister.

Ah, but of course! It did sound like hot air, after all.

[ Insert obnoxious chuckling in tandem here. ]

If you don't want to talk to anyone, you could just say so.

[ Mildly said, since she doesn't really care, but aren't they being a little bit elaborate about it? ]

It's already putting words in our mouths? How indecorous.

How boorish. It seems we've found ourselves in an alarmingly uncivilized place.

It was more an inference from how you responded! But if you want to be decorous, my name is Aradia Megido.

You're new? Do you have any questions?

"Megido"? A remarkably palatable name. How novel!

Well, a proper introduction merits one in return - even from an otherwise dim-witted source. Allow me: Scanty, of the Demon Sisters. From you, no-battery girl, "Miss Scanty" will suffice.

And her sister, Kneesocks.

...While I commend your intentions on giving advice, I have to wonder about your credentials. How can we be sure that you are qualified to give aide?

It's nice to meet you, Miss Scanty, Miss Kneesocks. So you weren't human to start with either?

[ That's interesting, anyway. ] I've been here for about two months, so it's really more an offer to answer any of the questions you might have to start with. I know I had quite a few on my own arrival.

[ That's a generous offer! But Scanty's train of thought is stalled at the previous station. ]

We certainly weren't! I should have known others had suffered this disgraceful change; no human has enough sense to be so compliant once they understand their situation.

Ah, I suppose that would give you satisfactory qualifications...

[But, likewise, she is distracted by another train of thought.]

It truely is comforting to know that someone else shares in our suffering in this time of upheaval! Though, it begs the question of what you yourself were before coming here, Miss Megido...

[Because it'd be such a shame if you were an..... angel.]

I was previously a troll! [ Definitely not an angel, although she does feel the need to expand on that a bit. ] An alien, basically. Some of the others from my planet are here as well - I think the majority of people who come here were human to start with, but there's a fair amount of non-humans, too.

Troll, hmm... [Kneesocks contemplates this for a moment.]

I don't believe I've ever heard of that. It sounds like a relatively respectable species.

Just as long as there aren't any angels! Who knows what this place would come to if their deranged, monkey-brained whimsies were permitted to run rampant across the landscape. A most detrimental influence on young "trainers", indeed.

[ And she laughs haughtily. ]

I trust these "trolls", on the contrary, are a properly organized society....if nothing else, this specimen can string together a sentence.

Angels? [ Like the angels on Eridan's planet, the ones he murdered? ...Probably not. ] Mm, so far I've meet a "koopa" and a "bob-omb". They were from the same world, though.

That depends entirely on your definition of "organized", I would think! I come from a point in time when there are only, oh, five and a half of our species left alive. [ Not counting certain adults. ]

[...]

How do you have a half?

Edited 2013-01-12 21:00 (UTC)

Sollux is only half dead in my timeline!

[There's a confused pause.]

She says that like it's suppose to make sense.

Offers purposely cryptic statements, yet accuses us of impropriety. How shameless.

Edited 2013-01-21 20:36 (UTC)

It's hard to explain beyond "it's Sollux". He breaks rules, even when they're universal constants.

[ seriously she's not sure how the hell he managed it. ] He's got one foot in the world of the living and one foot in the world of the dead, and he can leave that realm and follow me around, so...Sollux, basically.
