[...Well, wasn't that a strange turn of events.

Last he remembered, he was on the train back to Tokyo. He was supposed to be heading home. Why did he suddenly end up here, and what's with all this music running through his ears? Does someone have their radio on full blast or something? ...But it doesn't look like there's a radio in sight...

...Well, it's not like things could get any weirder. Other than this sheep-like thing he was shown the ropes on how to catch by an elder. He's already seen his fair share of strange for a lifetime. But that's not his main concern right now. No, in fact, his main concern is said sheep-like thing -- a Mareep, the elder'd called it -- and watching it while it moved around so frantically, presumably from excitement.

...It looked adorable, actually. He couldn't help the little smile.]

Hey, little guy. What do you want?

Mareep! Mareep!

[...He tilted his head, lineface resurfacing. Did it just say its own name? More importantly, he can't discern what it wants just from hearing it say its own name...]

...That doesn't help.

Mareep!

[It nudged his hand, almost as if it were asking for something. Food, maybe? A pat on the head? He isn't sure. He'll go with the latter for now.]

Ma-reeeeeeeeeep...

[> ...This is going to take a while to figure out.

Anyone watching that feed might want to help...]

Then I will assume he failed to mention there is a business here in your name as well as a large house.

[ Probably out of protecting her, but she can't blame him for doing so. ] It was left in my care when you, a variation of you at least, took their leave of this world.

No, he didn't.

[Blink.] What kind of business?

Edited (A little too quick on the guesswork. 8T) 2013-09-18 13:10 (UTC)

A Pokemon breeding house. There are two of them. One is located in Celadon City and the other within Goldenrod City. Though the intent was for a place for your friends to find a home here, it has shrunk considerably since then.

Ah.

...How long is it to Celadon, exactly? I feel like I missed out on too much work. [Though he might have been a different Souji, it would seem his role is still the same.

It looks like whatever force that brought him to this world knew that he was good with critters.]

Not very far, but costly. I doubt a new trainer could make it there and be capable of running a business when they are not aware of... the mechanics involved.

[ She frowns a bit. It must be frustrating for him to hear, but she pushes on. ] You do understand where I am coming from, do you not? It would be wonderful to have you take back everything you built prior, but without understanding of this world as well as the Pokemon themselves, it would be a disaster.

Therefore you must become experienced first.

[Frustrating, yes... but it wasn't something that could be helped. It was the fact of the matter; Souji, by virtue of not having everything his predecessor had, was new, a recent arrival to the fun little world of Pokemon...it wasn't something he'd argue with -- especially if he'd wind up inadvertently undoing his work.]

Mm...rushing never did anyone any good.

Correct.

[ How great it is that he listens to her right from the start? ] I hope you do not feel as if I am being cold towards you. It is not my intention.
