[Open]

Who: Sun Wukong, Open.
Where: Fayren
When: April 13th, early morningish.
What: Preparing to head into the forest.
Warnings: None!

[Sleeping in his office here in Fayren hadn’t been as entirely uncomfortable as he thought it would be. The floor wasn’t all that bad if you padded it down with enough blankets. He’s sitting on a bench in Fayren, and surprise surprise, he’s eating a banana. It's held with his tail, leaving his hands free for him to mark off things on a check list.

Down beside the bench, he has a bunch with some berries in it that his Rapidash was making a snack of. There is a thing of water next to it as well. Sun is letting it fuel up for their excursion today.

Next to Sun on the bench is a backpack filled with things that he felt he was going to need. He glances up when he hears his Tyrantrum roaring, followed by the laughter of children as they rode its back and tail. He was sure they would tire him out before he tired them.]

A few more minutes and Tyrantrum has to go bye bye. [He pointed out to the kids before turning his attention back to his notepad and marking some things off.]

[waking up here had definitely been a surprise. actually- waking up at all was something she had not been expecting... it wasn't like she was complaining, however.

she had heard the explanation from the weiss-hologram and now she was simply mapping out the area. she had her own book out as well, walking around and jotting down notes as she walked from place to place. she was sure there were maps out there already for her, but making her own just felt better. she had eventually reached fayren, and she was completely immersed in her notes until she heard a roar. she then looked up from her book to see the massive.... dragon? wyvern? manakete? whatever, it seemed friendly enough with those children.

robin glanced over to sun, her eyes briefly focusing on the way his tail held his banana.]

Excuse me- do you mind if I ask you some questions? They won't take too long, hopefully.

[It's a dragon. It looks meaner than it is, but it actually is a big softie. It loves to have its belly rubbed. Sun wouldn't have been surprised for that road to startle most, unless they were used to it.

He was about to bring the banana to his mouth for another bite when the girl spoke. He paused and looked to her. He's pretty sure he's never seen her around here before. He lowers the banana some. He gives her a little friendly smile.]

Sure. I'll answer them the best I can.

[aw, she would love to give the pokemon belly rubs later!

robin nods at him, thankful for his cooperation.]

So I understand where I am, I'm often used to encountering Outrealms and this place is no different. [except. she didn't think she could be revived in an outrealm.]

Let us start off with something relatively simple. How long have you been here? And, what is the quality of life like here?

[Now it feels like he's taking some sort of survey.] I've been here over two years. I think that's about the longest time out of anyone.

[Especially anyone that he actually knows.] I guess the quality of life depends on which city you're in. If you've been around to all of them, you can see that some are vastly different than others. Like this city and Everglade are the only ones that have natives that can use magic. Nova City has advanced technology while Genessia and Attleton are low on the technology spectrum.

So if you are into the mystical and magical, you'll probably fit in here in Fayren. Though it does have an issue recently with a group of people that dislike magic. Everyone else is fine with it, though. Most here make a living in some sort of field of that nature or something that supports it.

[Even though it was an early morning, even though mages like her were not safe anymore, even though she was helping with the Hands of Decay issue, Elize had a desire to go out for a little walk.

Arm with a Teepo-themed parasol, and holding the actual Teepo in her arm, Elize was fully out and about on a pleasant stroll until she came across some strange-looking animals playing with children. Any silence other than the laughter of children was completely destroyed when Teepo boings to life.]

"AAAAHHHH! That horse is on FIRE! Save it with WATER! Someone get Undine!"

"...Wait, it doesn't seem to be in pain, though... Is it a Spirit?"

[Sun looks over to the little girl and her..doll? Talking doll? He didn't know they made toys like that. It was probably from Nova City if it was from anywhere..]

I take it you missed the whole Pokemon thing? This is Rapidash.

[Rapidash looks up and then over to the little girl.] It's naturally on fire like that. It's not in pain at all.

"It looked at us! It's gonna charge! Run, Elly! Run!"

[Teepo flailed out of Elize's arm and floated around behind her. But the pyro pony didn't charge. Elize didn't move but she did ponder the creature.]

"So it's not a spirit? Then, what is a Pokemon?"

[robin quickly writes down everything that the monkey man says. he has a lot of interesting points, and she really is grateful that he is going into such detail with his stories.

...right, the magical aspect. she looks up once she is done writing her notes, and she does look a little confused.]

I feel like I should ask- just why are they so against magic? [she has to know if she's going to be living here or not.]

Rapidash is gentle. [Sun reaches over to it and pets it.] None of my Pokemon will attack you unless you are aggressive towards them or me.

[So basically they are just protective.]

A Pokemon is a creature from a different world. You can capture them and put them inside of Pokeballs. [Sun takes one out of his pocket and shows it to her.]

A bunch of them appeared a long while ago and we got the chance to capture some and keep them. The ones that weren't kept disappeared.

[He points over to Tyrantrum.] He's a Pokemon too.

They hate it for some reason. They say mages use it to oppress others and that mages are treated better because of it and stuff. Just the sort of thing typical hateful people would say. But I don't believe them. I know two mages that are the nicest people. They'd never treat others badly because of what they can or can't do.

The group is called the Hands of Decay, and they are just big jerks.

[Elize and Teepo examined the ball shown to them. Teepo commented first as he hovered back out into the open.]

"There's no way anything could fit in there."

"It's really small..."

[When Sun motioned towards the Tyrantrum, it came as a surprise to her.]

"And that's really your friend? It doesn't try to eat you up?"

Of course not. Tyrantrum is a big softie. The last thing he'd think about doing is hurting me. [He puts the Pokeball away and takes out another.]

Watch this. [He says before releasing a Riolu from the ball. It's clearly too big to fit inside the ball, but it actually does.] See?

[Elize knelt down to Riolu's height, smiling at it.]

"And they're friendly with everyone?"

[She clearly wants to pet them.]

Yep. Mewtwo, the deputy Guardian, is actually a pokemon too. But I think he's different somehow. [Riolu looks up to her as she knelt down. She can pet him if she likes!]

"I always thought he looked kinda freaky! Glad to know he's not a big meanie."

[Meanwhile, Elize slowly reaches out to gently poke the Riolu's cheek, followed by a slow pet over its head.]

"Its fur is so soft..."

['Hands of Decay' right. robin quickly wrote that name down, making a note to keep her status as a technical magic user secret as well. however, it seemed as though this man would be on her side.]

I wouldn't categorize myself as a 'mage' exactly... but I can definitely use all sorts of magic. I'm a Tactician. [for the royal army, but she will just keep that a secret for now.]

You're right however, that really is something hateful people would say. I will be keeping an eye out for these sorts of people, then.

[So secretive, Robin. He gives a little nod.]

I can't say I understand their thinking at all. Magic can be used for terrible things, but that doesn't make magic itself bad. [It was just like anything else. It's the people that used it to do bad things that are evil, not the magic itself.]

I'm Sun Wukong, but the way. [He extends a hand to her.]

Nah. He'd let you ride his back if you asked. [It's an 8ft dragon, so he'd be a pretty big creature to ride. Riolu blinked a few times as she poked his cheek. He might have brushed her hand away if she did it again, but when she started petting him, he made a happy noise and leaned into it.]

See? Looks like he might already like you.

Magic isn't bad- it's those that wield it which give it all a bad name.

[oh right, introductions! she closed her book, her feather quill in the middle of it in order to hold her place. robin extended her hand out to sun, taking his hand in hers. she smiled at him.]

I'm Robin. Nice to meet you, Sun.

[He shook her hand, returning the smile back to her.]

It's nice to meet you too, Robin. [He went ahead and tucked his pad away in the bag next to him. He was finished with it anyway, so he didn't have much else to write.]

"I think Teepo was talking about Mewtwo."

[Elize went ahead and continued to gently pet the Riolu, then moved her hand to try to see if she can hold its paw. Maybe it has squishy pawpads?]

"My name is Elize. It's nice to meet you."

"And I'm Teepo!"

[she pulled her hand back, noticing that he was now putting away his notepad.]

I apologize, I remember you were saying to... [she looked over at the tyrantrum in the distance, with the kids.] ...your dragon, that you were leaving in a couple minutes. I can leave if you're in a rush.

It's nice to meet you both. I'm Sun Wukong. [He says with a little nod. Riolu raised his paw up so that she could take hold of it.]

So what are you both doing here? Just looking around?

It's fine, I'm not in a big rush. [The kids would probably enjoy some more time playing with him anyway.]

I'm just heading out for a birthday camping trip. [He hasn't decided how long he's going to be out there, but it'll just be him and his pokemon.] So I'm not on anyone schedule but my own.

Ah, is that so? [....wait.]

Whose birthday is it?

Mine. [ He turns 20 today..thanks to being here for as long as he has.] I don't know what their birthday is.

[He motioned to both of his pokemon.]

[WHAT- well then! robin straightened up a little more when she spoke.]

Happy Birthday! Maybe I will be able to get you a gift later- since I feel a little empty handed here.

[even tho they just met and all but whatever. she turned to look over at his animals.] You may need to make up birthdays for them. Like- how about the day you received them?

[He chuckles a little.] You don't have to worry about it. I don't expect anything from someone that I just met. I'll be happy with just my camping trip.

[His Pokemon were looking forward to it.]

That could work. I still remember when I got them all.

You gave me some good answers to my questions, so perhaps it will also be a gift for being so cooperative.

Good, then that would make the birthdays much easier to figure out. I'm sure they would love that, too.

I was happy to. I still remember what it was like when I first arrived. [Even if it was a long time ago. He gives her a smile and nods.]

Alright. That will be their birthday. They might expect something from you though, since you helped select it and all.

Haha! Alright- I suppose I can get something for them, as well.

[robin looked out at his pokemon now, looking them all over carefully.] ...Are they the animals of this world? I admit I've never seen them before.

[He shakes his head a bit.]

No. They are from another world. They appeared here and we all got a chance to capture and keep some. I have eight total.

Another world... [another outrealm, perhaps? but robin accepts this explanation easily.]

Do they have names?
