Miss Mun, I appreciate all the effort you're putting into this, but maybe you should wait a bit? I mean... well, you don't have all the details about my world yet! You shouldn't make stuff up about things you don't even know at this point...

...

What do you mean you'll "just retcon it later"?

[ a sigh. ] It sounds like something a mun say alright. I hope you'll be okay.

[mindover]

Well... I think I'll be okay. My mun doesn't really have much planned for me in the long run... I just wish she didn't rush into these things without thinking about it first.

[Except I might drop him over at poketesting but that's neither here nor there ♥]

[notsoquiet]

If you say so! But be sure to voice what you're feeling from time to time. Or else others will just push you around.

[ at least he seems to have a place to go. that's more than she can say about her mun. gomen ]

[mindover]

Right. It's kind of easy to forget that just because I can sense other people's feelings doesn't mean they can sense mine... [Sheepish chuckle.

Shh, shhh, that's okay. Seeing Haruna around is enough for this mun.]

[notsoquiet]

Uh-huh! That's righ - [ wait, wait! ] sense other people's feelings!?

You can really ... do that?

[mindover]

Mhm. It's one of my powers... [He can also teleport. And move things with his mind.]

[notsoquiet]

[ Haruna walks around him, studying him with reporter's eyes, and then scratches the back of her head. ]

You're not an alien by any chance, right?

[mindover]

No, not an alien! In my universe, it's kind of a normal thing? Everyone has different abilities depending on what Pokemon they're bonded to.

[notsoquiet]

Ah, sorry! It's just that there was this time people claimed to be aliens and they had strange powers. It's a long story ...

But Pokemon? [ she adjusts her glasses. ] What are those exactly?

[mindover]

Wow, it... certainly sounds like it...

[But onto the more important topic!]

Oh, Pokemon are creatures that often have fantastic powers! A lot of them are like animals, some are like plants, some are more human-like, and some others are like objects... They have one or two types, which usually determines what powers they have. In my world, they work a little differently than they do in "canon", but in my world, everyone in the world is bonded with at least one. They share a soul!

[notsoquiet]

Wow, that sounds like something from a book. I sure would like to see one ... [ It just piques her curiosity even more! ]

I'll settle with descriptions. What's your Pokemon like?

[ Maybe it's some kind of psychic pokemon? ]

[mindover]

[He opens his mouth to speak, but is interrupted by a small sound that sounds something like a whine.] Ah! Here he is, actually. [Was that Ralts clinging to his leg there before? Probably not, but it's there now.]

Go on, Ralts, say hello!

[inblood]

You too, huh? My mun kind of did the same thing with me...

[mindover]

My mun's... well, she's excited, I can at least say that much. And I'm grateful she's putting so much thought into this, I just... It'd be nice if she slowed down a little, I guess...

[inblood]

Yeah... The problem with muns is, they seem to not care about testing the waters a whole lot before jumping in... At least, a lot of the time.

[mindover]

With my mun it's either of the two extremes. She'll jump right in before giving it thought or it'll take forever to get her to try...

[inblood]

Sometimes, my mun...delays. She puts things off for ages, and then charges ahead without thinking.

I think...I'd prefer she takes it slowly.

[mindover]

That makes the two of us when it comes to our muns, then.

... so we're from the same universe, aren't we? [He smiles.] My name's Wally. What's yours?

[inblood]

Yeah, it looks that way. My name is Touya, I'm a Healer.

[And we are not mentioning our famous mother or our other class. Cool? Cool.]

[mindover]

I'm a Psion. [Can someone say oblivious--] It's nice to meet you, Touya.

[inblood]

[Your empathy might be picking up mild surprise. Most of the world would hardly think it's nice to meet him.]

It's nice to meet you, too. Are you...going to that lab place...?

[mindover]

[Well, Wally isn't most of the world! And yes, he's definitely picking up on that surprise.]

My mun's thinking about it, but I think she wants to wait until she has more information.

[inblood]

I wish I could follow you, but I probably won't.

[That lab seems so much nicer than London and he barely knows anything about it!]

Information is...fluid, it's evolved a bit since my mun came up with our world. [A sigh of defeat.] It'll probably keep changing.

[mindover]

... Well, if anything, there's always those "musebox" and "meme" things, right?

[It's a sigh that he echoes.] That's... not very promising, I admit.

[inblood]

[There's a bitter smile if Touya ever made one.] I'm...already in one musebox. It...it could be going better. I don't know if it could be going a whole lot worse.

It'll come together eventually, though...her "alternate universe" ideas often do.
