1st Spin [Video] Surviving Balverines

[The feed clicks on with a little difficulty, showing the face of a ginger man who seems to be really fascinated with the 'gear, staring at the feed with mismatched blue and brown eyes.

After a moment he notices that it's on.]

Is this some kind of magic box like the one Master Weaver 'ad? Didn't think they'd 'ave these in hell!

[He's more amused by the fact that he's awake and alive than 'oh god where am I?', because hell- being alive and nowhere familiar is a far better alternative to being dead.]

I'd 'ave thought that wakin' up fwom death would feel like death warmed up! I'm wather dissatisfied with how cold it is and I would like to see life's manager.

I kid, I kid! Does anyone know of a man named 'Weaver? Or Albion at all, actually.

[He hasn't even found his Pokémon yet.]

[Well it's good to see that someone respects him around here! Reaver certainly doesn't...]

He certainly doesn't seem pleased to be trapped there, though I suppose not many of us are.

[Though from the sound of it, Barry here was kind of dead... How does that work?]

I... see...

[From the tone of voice it's quite clear that Logan has absolutely no idea what Barry is talking about. But the tone of voice certainly doesn't sound promising.]

I'm sure Reaver will get in contact with you soon enough.

Well in that case-! Anthin' else I need to know?

How strange, that you would call it hell...

[For a moment, he closes his eyes, and a small, sincere smile appears on his lips.]

Personally, I call it paradise. But, no matter.

[Actually, Gorthan kind of gets it, because... he's talked to ~~Weaver~~ Reaver more than he would have liked.]

I suppose that the notion of him employing personal servants should not surprise me - he has told me of his wealth. I am curious now - what is it like to work for him?

There's quite a lot you need to know...

[Switches briefly to text so she can send him this.]

[Well he's not really in the place to put down royalty.]

Can't complain, myself! It's one'a the better ways to take a Balverween attack.

[Logan will understand that! Unlike everyone else.]

Don't know where he is, do'ya? Wouldn' wanna keep him waitin'.

You work for him? [Dist recalls Reaver saying he had a big position in his home world, so him having people working under him is no surprise.] My, I'm sure he will be just thrilled to see you here.

[Good man!]

True enough, I suppose.

[Ouch, Balverines are awful.]

He's been following me lately. We left Goldenrod City several days ago. Is that where you are now?

[...Yeah uh... we're kind of horribly lost, Barry...]

Couldn't tell me where you are, could'ya? I expect Master Weaver would punish me if I kept him waiting even longer than I have.

[So go in the direction and wonder until he finds them?]

Ah... unfortunately we've had some... complications while travelling...

[.................]

...I'm afraid I have no idea where we are. If Reaver has any idea, he certainly hasn't said anything.

[...And if Reaver does have any idea and isn't telling him, he will be so mad. ...Which really means he'll just lineface as usual.]

[As far as that remark about "punishment" goes? He's going to ignore it. Because there's no way you're implying what he thinks you're implying.]

Well, I'm in that Goldenwod place you were on about, so gimme a diwection and I'll be on my way!

[And then he pauses, a little unsure.]

Aren't any monsters though, are there? I mean I've got this baby Balverween thing and a fish, but I'm not sure they're gonna pwotect me fwom anythin' big.

[He's got a use for that Magikarp at some point though.]

Head north; south takes you down to a forest and we decided to avoid that. Reaver seemed fascinated in finding some ruins to the east, but I don't know if we're any closer to them than when we started.

[We need a light trail so badly...]

There are creatures out here, but I wouldn't call them "monsters." They are similar to the ones you started with; they will not attack humans and the ones you've been given should prove sufficient for your own protection.

[...Wait, you got a baby Balvereen? That's just cruel.]

You should be capable of capturing the creatures as well, should any of them interest you.

I'll be there wight away, Your Majesty.

[Tell him about it; he doesn't like it either. But wait until he sees what it turns into...

And he's happy to know they won't attack him.]

Couldn't care less for the little blighters, but if they can be used- well, might have to weconsider.

I should hope so! Otherwise I'm out of a job.

[Oh, Reaver will laugh at that. Quietly. Darkly. ~~More than slightly douche-ily.~~ He likes it when you play the ego-stroke game, you know; good of you to get on it so quickly.]

Perfect indeed. Only just arrived, I take it?

[He knows you like it and he's happy to play it; staying on the good side of Reaver has its benefits, as well as not getting shot. He doesn't need to die again k thx.]

[He's actually moved places since he recorded this.]

Yep. Awwived in some town called Goldenwod- stwange buildings these, ugly though- Got given some dirty animals and now I'm on my way to your- may I say devastatingly handsome- self and His Majesty.

[Oh, come now, honey, you're laying it on a little th...oh who is he kidding, he doesn't care.]

Ah, yes, Goldenrod City - I arrived there myself, though I can't say that I was terribly fond of it; the fact that it was being bombed by some madman two days after my arrival really didn't do much to help my impression. I mean, really, if you're going to bomb a city, the least they could have done would be to invite me to come with.

[He seems mildly sulky at that for the briefest of moments - is that pouting? it might be pouting, maybe half a second of pouting - before he immediately seems to brighten up again, offering the most flippant of gestures before moving on.]

But that's their loss! Anyway - tell me about these hideous creatures this place saw fit to bestow upon you, hm?

Bombing? Got anything to do with the half-bweeds hangin' around the place? Or are they the locals we've got to get so vewy used to?

[He means the mutated. He's staying away from them and honestly considers them close to animals.]

[He picks up one of his Pokéballs, fiddling with it and turning it around until he finds the button; holding it at arms length, he pushes the button and that thing comes out.

Turning the 'gear to the floor, there's a Zorua.]

Looks like a baby Balverween- if they can even pwoduce that way, that is.

[Following it, the Magikarp comes out too.]

I personally think this one's a bit fishy. [He can't help but laugh at his really bad joke. Barry has no humour standards whatsoever.]

*The large purple ponytail probably doesn't help that, even if it's largely off screen.*

I don't think many would... Although you have a lot of countryside to see if actually going out and seeing it is your thing.

Personally I'd wather stay inside; it's where the best things happen.

Thanks for that, then.

[He'll read through some of that if he gets bored. Might come in handy when serving Reaver in this place.]

... eh? Aren't you a little too old to be a NEET?

Is it?

[ Oops. Kobato has a little bit of a panic in her head for a second, but comes back. ]

It would appear the translation of this world [ There has to be one right? This guy isn't Japanese ] is mistaken!

A- pardon?

Considering they are your only line of defense here, I suggest training them.

[Unless you're good at hand-to-hand combat and all that.]

[...That... is what you mean, right...]

[For once, that is actually what he meant.]

Well, let's just hope they listen! Or they'll be getting familiar with my boot. [He let's out a laugh, smirking. Who cares about these little things?]
