First Feather - [Video/Action for New Bark Town]
[Seems like it's a busy day for the network, and it wasn't about to stop just yet! The feed of the Pokegear's video setting flickers to life, showing a young face fixating on it with her wide, brown eyes. It's likely immediately obvious that this person is new to the world, as the snowy setting of New Bark town sits in the background visible behind her. ]
... O-okay, then that must mean...
[Rakka looks away for a moment, and the sounds of paper being flipped reaches the Pokegear. Looks like Rakka's found a bench to sit on while she slowly, carefully makes her way through her Trainer's Handbook. Flip, flip, oh.]
... So that means it has to be on now. [She says quietly, affirmingly. To herself. Okay, you can do this, Rakka. Just breath in...
Give her a second, she's nervous.]
H-hello? Can anyone hear me? [Dumb question, she's trying.] If anyone can hear this... I think I really need some help.
[Her voice trails away a bit, confused and worried.] My name is Rakka, and I'm a Haibane from Old Home, in the town of Glie? I... I was there a moment ago, and now I'm here in... Joh-to? A woman calling herself "Mom" pushed me out of a house, and wouldn't let me back in. A-and now I have this little ball that had a bird inside it!
[Everything blurs together as Rakka moves the screen until it focuses on... a disinterested Doduo, plodding around in the snow, both of its heads trying to snatch snowflakes out of the air.]
... I think she's a bird. [The view returns to Rakka. Her tone has equal parts wonder and anxiety.] But she's also a 'Pokemon' and it's so much bigger then the birds I've seen, and it walks around instead of just flying, and it has two heads...! And now... I'm all alone here.
[She's trying not to panic, oh she is. But it's plain-as-day that she's feeling the stress as she speaks up:]
If anyone can tell me the way to leave this place, or if you know Kana, Hikari, or Nemu... please tell me. I'd really appreciate it! [A slight nod and an added:] Thank you!
[... She doesn't know how to turn this off. Uh. Hang on. She'll get it eventually...]
Around New Bark Town.
[Rakka was positive she'd never been here before... yet, there were a number of similarities that she couldn't just ignore; they were literally standing all around her.
Windwills, turning ever so slightly in the breeze. There's one situated almost in the middle of town, and Rakka's almost instinctively drawn towards it. It's big, noticeable, and it's something she recognizes. Which is comforting because a LOT of things seem to be happening today, and they don't seem to be stopping. She reaches out to touch it, big mistake. Cold! Cold. But real all the same.
So that's where she decides to be right now, standing at the base of one of the windmills, rubbing her hands together and giving a jolting sneeze while she watches those giant blades turn.
It's boring, but something to focus on.]

[What better way to start this fun week then being the welcome wagon.]
[Video]
No way out...? T-that can't be true! I mean, there's always some way out of somewhere... right?
[Video]
That could be true, if you weren't in this crazy universe but no. Unless this place decides to toss you back where you came from, you are stuck.
[Video]
Meanwhile, Rakka's expression is dropping by the second, but it seems that something Killua said has caught her interest.]
Is... is that what this place does? Taking people and bringing them here to... Uh [Wait.] What are people supposed to do here?
[Video]
[He shrugs before remembering something.]
Oh and there are times when the world will go sort of nuts but it doesn't happen often though, sadly.

The next town...
[There's a pause, it sounds like she's found what Bakugou said. Which should say enough before Rakka speaks up again, out of frame. She sounds... disappointed.]
No, no. That's not the town that I'm looking for.
no subject
[ You know when two people are having two different conversation with each other? ... Yeah. ]
no subject
[That is exactly what is happening right now. SORRY IN ADVANCE, BAKUGOU.]

So here we are, a girl who needs a heckton of sleep carrying a sentient candle approaching dear Rakka. She hadn't quite realized anyone was standing by this one until reaching her, but uh, well, here we are?]
Are... Uh, are you...new here too?
no subject
Huh...? [She looks back and- Oh. She's a bit surprised there's anyone out here, let alone the living candle in Ashley's arms. It looks alive at least.]
Uh... [Make words. She nods.] Yes, I am; I woke up here a little while ago, and someone named 'Mom' pushed me out of that house over there.
[She stops rubbing her hands to point towards the dark house Ashley will probably know about.]
no subject
Mmm, yeah, uh. Same here. Just earlier today, weird woman calling herself my mom and all.
no subject
[Also... a little Rakka wave. Hi, Litwick, you're a living candle. That's a thing that is happening in this world.]
Um, your candle just waved at me.
[SHE'S SORRY, THAT MIGHT BE A DUMB STATEMENT.]

Hey. Rakka, right? Look, it's gonna be okay. I know it's hard to take in being somewhere else crazy suddenly when you don't know anybody, but if you're worried about your folks back home, time's stopped there so you'll get dropped off right back where you were.
[Video]
She gives a nod. Rakka is her, yes.]
Yeah, I'm hoping you're right. [She just have to keep breathing, and everything will be-Wait a second.] W-wait, time's... stopped? You mean this place can stop time too?
[Video]
[He looks at the ceiling for a while, then spreads his hands.]
Say you're reading a book. While you're reading, stuff's happening in the book world, right? But after you stop and go do something else for a while, when you come back to the book, you're still in the same place, nothing's changed. The stuff you do in your world doesn't affect time in the book world. So it's sort of the same thing; time here doesn't mean anything to time there. So you'll just go back to where your bookmark left off.
[Video]
[Congrats, Dave. You explained it in the way Rakka would understand the most.]
... But, that's so strange. I know I'm here, but no one else will know when I go back home. [She adds quietly.] If I got back.

[Nowi's sitting on a bench as well, though she's in a different area. She's also got a Dratini wrapped around her neck like a scarf and she's wearing a puffy pink coat. Despite the cold, she seems perfectly fine.]
Hi there, my name's Nowi! It sounds like you've done your research! Well, more than I did, anyway. I guess you've probably heard a lot of people talk about stuff by now, so do you have any other questions? I can try to answer them!
[Emphasis on "try".]
For now, you're gonna have to go out on that route and walk to Cherrygrove, which is the next city! Don't worry though, Cherrygrove's super nice! It's where I'm staying!
[VIDEO]
Fashion < warmth]
W-well, all I've been doing was reading this book I found in the bag "Mom" gave me.
[She holds up the Trainer's Handbook in a hand, dropping the pokegear - actually no, she's keeping a good grip on this thing.]
Cherrygrove... is the next town, isn't it. Is there anything nice there?
no subject
[NOWI]
But more seriously, you can rent a room here for pretty cheap and there's a cute little beach and it's not too big or too small... it's a wonderful place!
no subject
[Alright, that. Is actually a little funny. But Rakka's suddenly looking a little excited.]
A beach? You mean... is there's an ocean there?

[ She's never seen one like that before. It must be a Gemini. ]
But really, you're definitely not all alone, there's no need to be nervous! I get that it's a little bit overwhelming at first, 'cause I was freaking out a little when I first got here, too, but there are lots and lots of really nice and friendly people here, and I'm sure they'll all want to be friends with someone as sweet as you are. I mean, I've never heard any of those names before, but, there are probably a whole bunch of people in New Bark Town around where you are who just got here! So if you're gonna go out to the next town over, I'm sure it'll be a lot of fun if you get together with a few of them and maybe stick together a bit! And, of course, you have your Pokemon, too!
[She's sort of rambling a little, but, hopefully Rakka gets the idea!]
Have you given her a name yet? That's the most fun part, in my opinion!
video;
[Blink blink. Wow, uh, that's a lot of talking in a short time. Apologies to Anna as Rakka tries to catch up... It's a slow job. But thank you, new person. Your sentiment is felt.]
Oh, uh, no. [She gives Anna a shake of the head, glancing off at her Doduo.] Apparently that's what you're supposed to do, but I haven't thought of anything yet.
no subject
[ W-whoops..! ]
But there's no rush, really! Just...take everything at your own pace here, you know?
no subject
N-no, no! It's alright. I just got here, and everyone's been telling me so much that I feel little like my head will explode.
[Not to say that she isn't enjoying it. New people, a new world... It had its pros and cons, almost certainly.]
What's your name? You already know that mine is Rakka.
