[Text] Journey start

[moveslikestrider]

really
is this really how this is going to go down

this feels a little like dejavu but without the hey ive been here before
like the circumstances feel somewhat passingly familiar
me and some weird pony just hanging out and waiting to see whats up
maybe ill name her black beauty not that shes black
youre a she right
im not looking to check fyi
you do that on your own time

were new in town and too cool for school or so someone calling herself my mom seems to think
ive seen my mom shes way hotter than that
there is a clear path of how did this dude came to be when you look at mom
not so much here sorry lady
but you can keep thinking whatever thats cool

now seriously what the hell is going on

[ooc: Color text opt out over here.]

it's funny because you've been here before.
four times now, to be exact.
but yes, this is really how it's going to go down.
you really are in the land of pokemon now.
just like in the video games only the pokemon are real instead of pixels.
it's actually kind of great.
and "mom" does that to everyone. kind of creepy but at least you never have to hear from her again after this.

shit better get used to it yeah i gathered i was in pokemon
which is a lot less weird than our entire lives but anyway
what do you mean ive been here four times
so she just sees kids off with a tearful little wave and a im so proud
that
isnt disconcerning at all

[ghostytrainer]

exactly what it sounds like. you were here for a while, then you left, then you came back.
and this is the fifth repetition of that cycle.
it happens sometimes. especially with people from our world, i've noticed.
yes, that is exactly what she does.

[He knows that motherfucking text. Gamzee has been in a bit of a down mood for the past several hours thanks to knowing that Karkat is so far away and there's nothing but assholes around here.

But that? That almost makes his fucking day.

What really throws the icing on the cake though is when he sees a flash of red out of the corner of his eye.]

Motherfucking miracles.

[So there's still a few out that. An impossibly wide grin on his face, Gamzee does his best to sneak up behind Strider. So what if he doesn't have the same stealth and speed as he did as a troll? Human bodies suck. But he wants to play with Dave a little, see if he can figure it out at first.

He stops a short distance away, crouching on the ground with a rather unsure looking Solosis on his head. He's back in his normal clothes after washing off the blood, but sadly his facepaint was a horrible tragedy that suffered in the water. Oh well, just makes it harder on the blasphemous bastard.]

Hey there motherfucker. You're looking pretty motherfucking lost. Need a hand?

[Action]

[moveslikestrider]

[He's been on high alert since well, the event he's not thinking about that caused him to lose sleep. Dave hears the approach and stands perfectly still. Paranoia wars with annoyance while his Ponyta snorts at his side.

Well at least this pony wasn't crushed under his baby ass. The moment Gamzee speaks Dave turns to face him.]

Why does everyone seem to think someone standing still and looking around means there's lost. It's the opening liner to every conversation with a stranger. Are you lost. Maybe I have more of a clue what I'm doing here. Kinda surprised you're even around.

[blackestheart]

[As fast as he can move, which is only about half as much as before he notices with annoyance, he's standing directly in front of Dave looking down at him.

He'd seen him briefly, just recently. But there were too many people around, too many motherfuckers all on edge at the slightest wrong move he made. Too much shit going on to properly get acquainted. He thinks that needs to be fixed.]

You got an idea of who I am motherfucker?

[Video Forever]

[pianokeys]

Daveja~-vu! I'd say I've seen this face around three times now.

[He's beaming at the 'gear, obviously happy for your return.]

Welcome back, kiddo.

[Text]

[moveslikestrider]

thanks i guess
so i keep getting to know you
is that how this has gone on for three loops

[pianokeys]

[He nods.] They say third time's the charm.

I~'m your Other Father. [He's grinning like a madman, giving a little half-circle wave over the 'gear.]

Your fantastic Other Mother's here too.

[usedshooshpap]

IF YOU REALLY ARE THAT CYNICAL ABOUT WHAT GENDER THE THING IS
JUST CHECK THE GODDAMN GEAR.

[moveslikestrider]

[[You already know Rose is here, but she's not the one that originally contacts you from her 'gear. There's someone else who's been waiting for you to come back who got it first.]]

nice to see your text too sis
i told you to stay away from those troll novels they are rotting your brain with their trainwreck
why do you keep taking them this seems like a masochistic thing to do
theyre not even funny terrible theyre like little bombs of bad that assault your brain like a brain sucker
or you have no idea what im talking about and im once again talking about things people dont remember

[text]

[eclectical]

dave!!!!
you actually have been here before, though you apparently do not remember
that is pretty normal, though, so i wouldnt be too worried about it
anyway, you are in johto!
more specifically, you are in new bark town

[text]

[moveslikestrider]

yeah i got told im like the fifth run of the dave strider train into this station
hows it going harley

[text]

[fairycircle]

I'm not following half of your questions, but at least I can tell you that you're in Johto. It's another world where the monsters are generally very friendly and will fight for you once you've captured them with a pokeball. I think everyone was given one when they arrived there... and the woman there calls everyone her child.

[text]

[moveslikestrider]

yeah i got the run down the rest just doesnt matter right now
which critter did you get to start with

video || a liiiiittle bit late but /kicks time in

[conduit]

[ Oh boy! Rangiku remembers the last time Dave was here and the resulting budding... conversations. Rangiku considers him to be a friend and it doesn't matter if Dave reciprocates or not. Especially since he's back and with amnesia! ]

Dave! You're back!

[Text] Totally cool man, and sorry for this being late

[moveslikestrider]

[Wow, that sure is a lady.]
yeah i rolled back in
minus some memories though
sorry man
who are you again
