01 | video (action for new bark town)
[ When the video feed clicks on, Namsoon looks rather ruffled up: his clothes are all askew, and there are signs of a bruise beginning to purple on his right cheek and a cut along one of his arms. There's a Mienfoo sitting on his lap, looking very excited!! to be out and about; it can barely seem to sit still. ]
I have a question. The Pokémon we’re partnered with... they aren’t supposed to attack you, right? [ there’s a pause, and then a sigh -- ] I don’t think she meant to, but she was very -- enthusiastic, when I let her out of the ball... They’re pretty strong, aren’t they? Even though they’re so small.
[ For a few moments, he seems to zone out, staring blankly and not saying anything. Rather abruptly, though, he snaps out of it after half a minute or so: ] I was wondering, though... do they really enjoy fighting? And do we have to battle them? It just seems kind of...
[ He trails off, changing subjects abruptly: ] I think I need a band-aid.

[ he smiles a little at that. ] None taken. She really does kinda look like one, except... maybe a little cuter?
[ ... ] I see. I didn't really want to, but I guess if she'd be happier that way, it's different...
Video
Mio smiles a bit too] She's pretty cute. There are a lot of pokemon that look like animals from home. Well- Earth. Most Earths. [She looks a bit flustered] It gets confusing.
Video
That's what I've heard... about the different worlds, I mean. [ ... ] Where are you from?
Video
Japan. I guess my Earth is like most peoples' Earth, but I haven't been to anyone else's so. [A shrug.] What about you?
Video
From Korea... it sounds like we're probably from the same world, I guess? From what I can remember, Pokémon was only a video game -- I suppose it's probably the same for you?
Video; 5 years later I tag back welp.
Sounds like it; Korea exists in my world, at least. [Here she hesitates and shakes her head, though] No. At least, not yet. It's only 1988 where I'm from. I guess it's later in your world?
Video; no such thing as late tagging in my book :*
The New Year passed recently before I came here... [ there's a moment of hesitation because wow, she would be... 25 (he thinks?) older -- ] It's 2013, when I came from.
Video;
Oh. [She looks a little surprised. 2013... She can't even imagine it] I guess that makes me your elder, technically--You'll have to show me proper respect.
[The corner of her mouth twitches, a slight smile and she looks away to giggle a bit.]
Video;
[ Namsoon cracks a smile at that, too: ] Should I call you sunbae-nim then? Or is noona alright?
[ which are both roughly the equivalents of senpai, at varying degrees of formality! ]
Video;
Which one is more respectful? Call me that one. [A small laugh.]
Oh, I never introduced myself, right? I'm Mio Amakura. I've been here a couple months.
Video;
My name's Namsoon. It's nice to meet you, Mio.
