001. [video/action for Route 43]
[There had been some definite toying around on this particular connection today, the screen flickering off and on as the PGC's functions were flipped from video to voice to text and back - anyone with a reasonably quick eye may have caught glimpses of amber eyes and long black hair, and perhaps sharp features holding an expression that seemed more amused than anything else. However, Kimblee has never really been interested in wasting too much time with playthings; the PGC hasn't been completely abandoned, as there are occasional sounds that indicate that someone is still in the area - footsteps once in a while, followed by odd scratching sounds and the like - but Kimblee himself is nowhere to be seen.
...probably because he's left the thing on in Voice mode before wandering away from it. The technology is a bit beyond him, and apparently he hasn't quite figured out how to turn it off.]
...try this again, shall we?
[Either Kimblee is muttering to himself or his conversational partner is exceedingly boring, as there's no response; either way, there's a bit of odd rustling, like fabric being shifted a bit, before a sharp snap - someone clapping their hands together, perhaps.
A brief pause. Another clapping sound.
Sigh.]
No...no, of course not.
[A few moments pass before there's a bit of a clatter - clearly he's decided the PGC is worth another shot, as he's back to fiddling with it, humming lightly to himself as the screen suddenly flickers to life.
Good afternoon! This would be Kimblee. And just barely visible on the ledge behind him would be several circles etched into it, with various designs scrawled into them.
For those who are familiar with transmutation circles, it seems he's been making an...attempt at alchemy. A very, uh, persistent attempt. Given that the clapping implies he was just trying to blow the thing up, apparently he just really doesn't like that ledge.]
Well, it seems that even with four functioning limbs you can't vault over them properly, and the chimera I've been given is useless in terms of destroying them. Either these ledges are defying all logic, or there's some other force at work. Dare I ask?
[Because as polite as his tone is...no, really, those ledges are just unfair.]

Although if that truly is the case, then perhaps you'll cooperate when it comes to telling me what you know. Or shall I simply seek out some of the others? I'll get answers about this place one way or another, mind you; it's simply in your best interest to supply them yourself.
[Admittedly, he has no way of knowing exactly who is here; however, it's unlikely that he and Ed are the only people from Amestris that managed to end up in this place, isn't it?]

First off, that thing following you around? It's not a chimera. It's called a Pokemon. Think of it as your helpful pet you use to fight other Pokemon and defend yourself.
Second, this place really doesn't make much sense in general. If you look at a map, you'll notice some places you can't reach without crossing a large body of water. For some reason, even if you have a Pokemon that can swim, they apparently can't carry you across unless you teach them a certain move. The same goes with a flying Pokemon. Even if it can fly and it's big enough to carry you, it won't unless you teach it a certain move. Don't expect to get any good information from the locals either. They just repeat the same thing over and over.
There's a theory going around that challenging gym leaders in certain towns and collecting the eight badges here, then defeating the 'Elite Four' will get us home, but so far, no one's been able to prove or disprove it.
Happy now?

Yes, that's much better. Completely nonsensical, of course, I suppose it's no more so than the rest of this place.
It's good to know that you're still capable of seeing reason, Fullmetal - I'm sure we would both prefer that we not make this any more difficult than it really needs to be, wouldn't we?
