Mr. Strider, I have a request for your attention? Lil Sebastian has ... well, I can't really say he's gone missing, but I'm a bit confused. You said he had a stuffed rabbit beneath his exoskeleton, and now he seems to be wearing it on the outside. Was that some sort of "blending in to get the tactical advantage" setting I don't know about? It's bad enough that I still have to repair Poppop when I "return home", but I don't think Dad will take to a sunglasses wearing critter running about; at least with his more robot-looking appearance, I could have him hold still and pretend to just be a toy you sent.

Honestly, this entire little charade going on around me is nothing short of eyebrow-raising. I can't really have been transported somewhere when all that's happened is Lil Seb looking ready to drop the fridge; I haven't even had the opportunity to get my game yet!

[There's at least a good four minutes before the next text shows up.]

This isn't some ironic test to make me less skeptical about what I'm hearing and seeing, is it? Or is this suddenly one of the occasions where I'm being caught by a giant, squishy, foam butt and have yet to wake up from the weird dreams?

which mister strider are you looking for
because we have two to my knowledge!!
dave and his human lusus whom i have never spoken to
also i do not believe we have met :)
i am aradia megido
how do you do?

[Okay, yes, Jake did have a WHOOPS moment and turned on video because jkfldashjfekaw JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He remembers too late that he looks like he just got out of a fire and, blushing, fiddles with the controls.]

[Text going...now!]

Jane!
Goodness its great to see you!
Ive no idea about this squishy butt business...but point of fact is that dirk isnt here just yet.
Hell probably come eventually but at the moment we are currently without that particular strider.
Roxy is here though!

I happen to be looking for the one whose name is Dirk. Dave, I believe, is his older brothers name? [So does Dirk have another relative she has no idea about? But whaaat....]

I don't believe we've met either! It's lovely to meet you, my name is Jane Crocker.

[...... Going to take a little longer, but here comes another text.]

This talk of being in the Pokemon world and all of that nonsense, it's just part of a strange dream, right? [It sounds so silly to be asking, but this is a little too much to wrap her head around and outright buy just yet.]

[Give her a moment, because she doesn't recognize Jake for a moment there; who the hell is that, looking like he crawled out of a fire -- oh.]

[THAT TEXT IS OBVIOUSLY JAKE SO THAT MUST HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN JAKE.]

the dirk strider is not here i am sorry!!
jake mentioned him though
and i am afraid this is not a dream or a dream bubble
this is a reality although it is not one i previously knew existed!

i can now introduce myself more precisely by the way
i am the maid of the time from the session twice before yours
of sburb i mean
i believe that is the human term for it

I, uh, ignore the squishy butt business for now. It isn't nearly as important as my question for you; why do you look like you've been in a fire!?

Oh ah.
Well.
Funny you should mention that!
Um.
There was...sort of a fire yesterday in the city im in?
Nothing to be alarmed about! Im fine and dandy and came out relatively unscathed!

Jake, as in, Jake English?
I find it hard to believe that this could be another reality; how could I have gotten here?

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I'm following what you mean from "session"?
The only familiar name is the title and Sburb. Mine is supposed to be the maid of life. What do you mean by human term, exactly, as well?

Jake!! Goodness, I just get here and you're already giving me a heart attack! Please be careful, even if this weird dream-like world isn't real enough for me to believe this nonsense just yet.

yes that is the jake i mean! :)
roxy and i are travelling to his birthday part in violet city
i suggest you head there as well!!

when you complete sburb the reward is the creation of a new universe
my coplayers and i completed our session to the extent of doing that
although we were then thwarted
that session was the one prior to yours
those players were forced to preform a scratch which flipped the birth order
of you and your guardians
thereby resetting the session

also i mean the troll term for the game is sgrub :)

Sorry it was pretty rotten timing.
Especially considering yesterday was thanksgiving...
At any rate isnt there a trick to seeing if it wasnt a dream?
Its certainly real enough for me to feel these burns.

Wait, how is it already December? It's November 11th! [Nope, wait, going to stare at that entire little paragraph. Going whaaaattttttt.]

This is a little too much to take in.

I'm sorry, Jake. They've been treated and you will be alright, right? [Dream or not, he's really injured.]

oh!
im sorry
i suppose it might be!
would you like me to slow down or reiterate any of my points
or i could speak in video format if you prefer

It's alright, it's just tough for me to believe it.
Dirk always did say my skepticism would be a problem and right now, I'm almost seeing his point.
Yes, that might help!
I still feel so sure that this place is a dream, but at the same time, everything feels so very real.

Oh yes no worries here!
A little fire wont keep this gentleman down for long!
How about you jane?
Nothing wrong on your end i hope?

[ Perfectly happy to help, Aradia will flip on the video function. Although she mentioned "human terms" and "trolls" previously, the screen will show a perfectly ordinary human girl, although her hair is a bit messy. ]

I have had a great deal of experience with dreams! And this isn't one, although I can see why that point of view might be preferable.

[Urgh more friends of Striders.

GODDDDDDDDDDDD.

Oh wait he was meant to be civil and shit wasnt he]

wwe got twwo striders here
davve and his human lusus bro

Good.
I'm glad to hear that much.
Well, I'm still a bit baffled by how I wound up here?

Not one by the name of Dirk?
He wears pointed shades, if that makes a difference.

[..]

the old ones got pointy glasses but hes not called dirk
he said his name wwas bro

Edited 2012-11-23 06:06 (UTC)

That would be an excellent question and one i havent gotten any sort of answer to.
We know absolutely nothing about why any of this is happening.
On the bright side certain relatives are here as well!
Dave strider rose lalonde jade harley and even your poppop john!
Though his last name is now egbert.

That's strange.
Dirk has said his older brothers name is Dave.
Maybe a sibling I haven't been told about?
He may not even know Bro, actually, since he only knows a little about Dave.

[Musing to herself, yup yup.]
