[ Hey look, it's another teenager! A totally and completely normal teenager that has managed to scrounge up some clothes that aren't just whatever the hell he was wearing under his suit. Looks like a hoodie and some kind of shirt that looks like it might be nerdy? He tried for a nerdy aesthetic, anyway, which is hard when he doesn't even know what nerd culture looks like here. He's seated outside in Nova City somewhere, trying to figure out what to do next.

Anyway. He. Waves awkwardly? ]

Hey, um. I'd ask if people really just introduce themselves online like this without making it like "Welcome to My Star Wars Vlog And/Or Podcast" but I went back and looked at a bunch of posts and I guess that's exactly what it is? Which is cool. But weird? I'm weirded out.

[ Focus, Peter. Maybe breathe a little. He looks incredibly awkward, which is still only 50% of the Awkward Peter Parker Experience. ]

Anyway, I'm Peter Parker! I just got here like. A couple hours ago? And I have one really super important question.

[ Pause. Try not to look too excited. Look incredibly excited. ]

Did I see something about Pokémon? Like, actual physical Pokémon? Is that real or is this some super convincing AR thing? Because I'm down with both but if it's the first kind I am literally going to explode.

"Hologram Lady" Is Weiss Schnee. She and her family were here for a bit, and apparently did a lot of work already in to trying to figure things out and make it all easier for newcomers. She's no longer here, sadly.

The pendents are things that only those of us who aren't 'native' have. They allow us to pass between the different archways to the different cities. Do not lose, or destroy, or modify the pendent. For example--my mother refused to wear hers because she thought it was ugly, right? The only thing I could do to help at all, was get the pendent re-set very very carefully, into a bracelet for her.

I mean, it is kinda ugly, but being able to teleport between cities is cool enough to outweigh it. She really hated it that much?

If you meet my sister, you'll understand. She and mom got the fashion sense. Father just didn't care and I...well, I've rarely had a chance to care much.

[A wry grin.]

Although that's a good example of the time-related and dimension-related weirdness. My mother and father were both here, whereas in the point of time and dimension I'm from, both are gone. I also never had a sister, but I have one here because in yet another timeline--including the one that Mother and Father were both from, although she's a baby there--I have a younger sister. She runs a fashion business here in Genessia and one of the other cities.
