*Imogen looks like she hasn't slept well the past week, and that she hasn't seen sunlight in a week. Omen (Absol) and Talent (Espeon) look just as ragged, the former just looks dirty while the latter's eyes are closed as they move about in the fresh clean air. The only thing that looks taken care of on Imogen is her dress... it's the one from the icon there. Black straps on the abdomen, a rainbow tutu attached, long sleeves... odd choice of outfit.*

So... ever woken up in a cave you don't remember falling asleep in? Then trying to get out of the cave, finding the exit, running toward it... and ending up in a different cave? THAT WAS MY WEEK!

...And I thought the weird dream about Sasuke hitting on me and taking me for coffee was weird...

Also... do any of you have memories of this place from before you came here? I mean... like... no, it's weird, nevermind!

*Crazy cave dreams, that's all that was. Of her being her from when she was still obsessed with Eli. Yeah. That's it!*

Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how I got to Mount Moon. Thor, Steve, Tony... where are you guys? As I need a bath, a hug, and a massage in... some order or another. And a lift to town. See... Aglon fainted, and I don't have Wildfyre's pokeball for some reason.

...Tell me nobody went surfing up and down the edge of Cinnabar...

....Is your cave at least lit?! Mine isn't and it's more than terrible enough. And seems to have no exits at all.

[He paused a beat, tone turning bewildered.] You had a dream Sasuke hit on you?

The first one wasn't, the second one was. But I found my dress in the first one so I was okay in the dark! My friends here are still not quite used to daylight yet. And... we didn't catch any of the pixely.

Why are there pixely things anyway? A glitch in the Matrix?

And... it had to be a dream, I mean, a reality where Sasuke grows up flirty and smiley is just weird right? *Imogen's threshhold for weird ends with 4th Wall BS.*

No idea about the Sasuke thing. I vaguely remember trying to set him on fire but he electrocuted me so uh, I had a less weird dream than you? I'll have to ask him if he's really an raiton user.

[He paused, then sighed.]

I haven't been able to get a good look at most things, but even before the ghost... incursion... my group was being attacked pretty regularly. Now it's just... really really bad.

And dark. So, uh, I know we haven't talked much but I hope you end up somewhere sunny at the end of being bounced around okay?

...I did mention he smiled, pleasantly! Not, 'I'm going to win clever,' but a legitimate unmoody smile?

*She clearly wins at weird Sasuke dreams. Okay?*

I'm out in the sun now! Well, it will be in a few hours, right now it's just streetlights. Which is still a bit brighter than I'm used to after all that dark cave climbing. Talent seems to be enjoying the fresh air. I just... happen to be on the wrong side of everything from my travel party.

This is Kanto, I should be in Johto.

Stop trying to creep me out with the idea of perky Sasuke, I'm already creeped out enough cause of the cave situation.

[You could probably hear his pout.]

I'd say be glad that you're out, otherwise it might stick you in a Johto cave.

Have a Pokemon that can dig? That should be able to get you out of whatever cave you're in? Or... nope, I got nothing.

Well, okay, maybe we got left in someones jeans and went through the washing machine. That's my only theory.

[There was a nice long pause but yep. Nope. His tone was bewildered.]

I have no idea what any of the last part of what you said meant.

...It means things are weirder than normal. And in a really really not good way!

This I noticed, yes. Watch out for the weird pokemon, they pretty much locked all of mine into the gear, to say nothing about the ghosts...

...These ghosts didn't happen to be vaguely amorphous things you couldn't identify as any one species of Pokemon?

Ah, some of them. Some of them are pretty definable too, when they're not randomly vanishing out of existence.

Weird, sounded like what happens if you don't have a Sylph Scope, but... if that were true all of them would just be spooky ghost things.

They're definitely more tangible than most ghost types seem to be though. And sometimes kind of... ragged around the edges?

Ragged!? You mean sorta blocky square-y things that really definitely look like they don't belong?

Right! But it's not the whole pokemon or anything, just part of them.

Yeah, stay away from those! Like... *How do you explain coding errors in video games to a ninja?*

They're a cosmic level of mistake. All the weird Gear stuff, and the cave hoping, and the no exits. Things with those blocky weird bits to them are caused by them, or caused by the same thing that caused them.

They don't belong, they don't belong at all, anywhere, ever!

Yeah, I know! They're why I have no access to any of my pokemon right now pretty much at all!

If they are what I think they are, and given what I know I'm pretty sure they are what I think they are. They can do so much worse than that.

Like try to eat us? I have so many wounds from those things you have no idea. Oh, and lightsources have been mostly a joke.

*She has a way to explain it!*

They're faults in the functional reality of the universe! Running into them is like running into pockets of broken reality. They probably won't try to eat you, but they could turn the floor into water. Or make all your clothes out of bubblegum, or other impossible even for here impossibles!

Then they've been faking it REALLY WELL. [He lowered his voice, reigning himself in.]

Sorry, but... they've done things to our stuff, but they've been super hostile is all.

...This explanation will have to wait till I get some markers. Because this is way too complicated for a phone call.

And my screen won't work right now even if I wanted to go to picture.

It sounds like it'd be interesting though.
