005. [Video]

[VIDEO]

[Good evening, Johto!

The room is a bit dim when the video feed flickers on; Kimblee seems to have set the Gear on some piece of furniture in front of him - probably a desk of some sort. The room is nondescript, the walls bare, but it's spacious enough and there's what looks like that long trenchcoat of his draped over the edge of the bed behind him, as well as the edges of those boxes that the care packages came in, almost out-of-frame but just barely visible.

The room is his, after all, he just hasn't bothered decorating the place.

His voice is calm when he speaks, his posture casual - he's leaning back in whatever chair he's sitting in (and either it's a hell of a swivel chair or he's leaning it back on two legs and balancing it like that), and his arms are folded across his chest; despite that, however, there's a definite cocky note to his voice.

Someone's pleased with what he's received for Christmas, holy shit.]


My, my - judging from the feeds today, I'm not the only one who's received gifts from an unknown benefactor. Whether this is a sign that we've been favored by this world, or whether someone simply has a strange and possibly sick sense of humor has yet to be seen.

Perhaps a bit of both.

[And when he unfolds his arms, he's playing with something; it's moving a bit too quickly between his fingers for the camera to really focus on it, but whatever it is, it's small and solid and gleams a bit when it catches the light. A crystal of some sort, perhaps, blood-red in color.

For those from his world who would know a Philsopher's Stone when you see one: yep.

However! Kimblee will just be smiling and it will be a very pleasant expression, actually.]


I should hope that you're all enjoying yourselves; it's been such a lovely season so far.

[End feed.]


[OOC: It's been a lovely season indeed. Some of his CR has received things from him, just for the sake of reference; enjoy it?]

Quite! My friends got me some excellent presents; I was overwhelmed! All I have to give out are cookies. You're more than welcome to some when we meet!

And if they've gone off by then, I'll just have to bake you some more.

Not professionally or anything; more as a hobby! But the Professor and his apprentice seem to enjoy my cooking, so I can't be all that bad!



Ah! Is that a gemstone? It's beautiful!

I can understand that! Well, you're very lucky, then. I managed to get a few lots of film for my camera, which should last me a while. Hopefully, anyway; there's so much to photograph here!

I can still barely believe this place actually exists, let alone that I'm...well, here! With Machi! It's all very confusing.



Say, you've been here a while, right? Is there...any way to get back home?

Care to share those rumours with me? Any clue is a good one!

...defeating....the Elite Four....home.



So if Machi gets stronger, and we defeat these...'Gym Leaders', they'll let us fight this 'Elite Four', and if we beat them.....we could return home.



This is all very confusing, Mr Kimblee! Have you fought any of these so called 'Leaders'?

Hm. Well, that's alright! We'll just have to investigate it ourselves, won't we Machi?



Where's the nearest Gym Leader located, Mr Kimblee? We may have to postpone our coffee date, I'm afraid!

Ah, I've just left Cherrygrove City! Didn't manage to find any groves of cherries though, haha! Is there a Leader hiding in there somewhere?

Violet City...



That's right up the road! I'll be sure to stop and investigate it!

Oh, did I mention I have two Pokemon now? My friend gave me one for Christmas, although I don't know how much she likes me. With any luck, she'll be an asset in the battle with the Gym Leader! I'd still much rather fight the person myself, though; I know nothing about these 'Pokemon Battles'.

Ooh, what sort of competition? I warn you, I can get pretty competitive!

1/2

Train what I have and catch a few others; got it!

For your reference, I like mine black with two sugars.
