FIRST REBELLION ❅ ACCIDENTAL VIDEO / ACTION [ROUTE 29]
[Isaac arrived earlier today and he's been spending his time studying the network and the Pokémon. He shouldn't be here; he's dead. He's not dwelling on that right now though.]
[Instead, he's being attacked by a Sentret. It's using Scratch on the Shellder Isaac received to start with. Both the Shellder and the trainer seem completely unimpressed.]
Tackle, Antony.
[The Shellder responds immediately, slamming into the offending Pokémon. Isaac doesn't seem to have realized that the Gear is on and viewing the battle at a skewed angle. At least he's not in the frame?]
What the hell is this world? Sure as hell isn't Amestris.
[The Shellder uses Tackle a few more times to take the Sentret out and hops over to his trainer happily. Isaac kneels to pick it up, allowing the viewer a quick shot of his face.]
I guess I'll figure it out eventually.

[THIS IS SO CONFUSING WHAT DOES HE DO WITH IT]

...You've been here for three months, right? You have a decent idea of how this world works, I'm guessing. What do you know about it?
[VIDEO]
The small red-and-white balls you were given will help you catch more! It's good to get a team of diverse ones, as one Pokemon alone won't be able to handle every situation that you'll face.
It's a little like commanding your own army, I suppose! If we're going off of military terms. Ah, but thankfully, you can control the bloodshed here. And as far as I'm aware, Pokemon don't battle til death. Just until one is knocked unconscious or severely weakened!
[ How's that for an intro to Johto? ]
[VIDEO]
At least there's that. What's the point in gathering a bunch of these things and training them anyway?
[Not that not knowing has stopped him; he's been beating up all the things with this derp of a Shellder anyway!]
[VIDEO]
Well, they say if you defeat all of the Gym Leaders, you could find a way home. But nobody has succeeded yet.
Also it's good to train a solid team regardless of whether or not you want to participate in that challenge! Either way you look at it, no matter how you feel for those creatures, they deserve to be prepared for anything, don't you think?
[ That's how he feels about his Eevee, anyways. He'd never put her out there to battle if he didn't have to, but she needs to know how to defend herself.
Also, he might be subtly referring to your distaste for battle. ]
[VIDEO]
That's... Yeah. I guess I can understand that. What are you supposed to do if there's nothing left for you at home?
[He's. kind of dead. Going back isn't exactly an option unless he wants to cease existing.]
[VIDEO]
If there's nothing left for you back home, there's no reason you have to take the challenge, right?
You can stay here and train Pokemon. Help teach them the ideals you held back home.
[VIDEO]
[No, seriously, this Shellder is currently perched on his boot snoring. It's a clam. It's on his boot. It's snoring. What has his life become.]
I'm guessing you'll take the challenge then?
[It's been seven years since he last saw you, man. He's kind of curious as to what happened to that girlfriend of yours. At the same time, he really doesn't want to know.]
[VIDEO]
You can hear Maes' voice from behind her ]
They're smarter than you think, Isaac.
[ Or maybe yours is just defected... ]
Ah... I would like to get home as soon as possible, but preferably not by those means. Fighting isn't exactly my strong suit, unlike you alchemists!
I've been researching other ways of going home. So far, nothing.
[VIDEO]
I'll take your word for it.
[No, really, this Shellder is made of herpderp.]
[Anyway! He'd comment on how alchemists don't fight they kill, but let's not ruin the relatively light mood here. Not everything has to relate back to Ishval.]
I'm sure you'll figure something out.
[You've always struck him as being bright, at any rate! ...Don't prove him wrong, man. You were one of the only cool ones in Ishval.]
[VIDEO]
I do try my best!
[ Eevee's still kind of glaring at you, btws... She's very intelligent, dammit! ]
I have to admit, it's quite nice here! If it weren't for my family... I wouldn't mind staying here. You'd think that a world built off of fighting tiny chimeras against each other wouldn't be so... peaceful!
[VIDEO]
[Never heard of Tucker or his work! But anyway, that's hardly the most important thing you've said here.]
Family, huh? So I take it you did get married to that girl.
[...this is gonna suck, isn't it.]
[VIDEO]
[ Ah! Family. ]
So you remember! Yes! We married shortly after the war. We've got a little girl, now, too! She's three years old! I would've invited you to her birthday parties, but we all sort of scattered in different directions, hmm? I really think you'd like her!
[ He'd show you pictures, but lucky for you, Eevee insists on being in the way. ]
[VIDEO]
[You were loud, man. It was honestly kind of... cute...?]
Congratulations, then. Glad to hear things have worked out for you.
[VIDEO]
But what about you? Have you found the girl of your dreams since the war and settled down~?
[ He's sorry you guys didn't really keep in touch or anything. But uh, you just disappeared, man. If you'd given him some contact info, HE'D TOTALLY HAVE SENT YOU ALL THE ADORABLE ELICIA PICTURES. ]
[VIDEO]
What? No, I haven't... that's not... I'm not looking...?
[OH MY GOD WHAT DOES HE DO WITH YOU outside of copy Kimblee's "my whole brain is crying" expression, that is.]
[VIDEO]
Ah, no? Why not? Having a wife is the best! You come home every day from a hard day's work [ of commanding other people and shirking paperwork responsibilities... ] and you've got a delicious, hot meal waiting for you! And a beautiful face to stare lovingly at~ What more could anyone want?
[ UNLESS YOU'RE INTO DUDES? Which is just as fine, man. Dudes can cook you things and gaze lovingly at you as well. ]
[VIDEO]
Well... yeah but... I'm not exactly in a position to...
[Oh come on, man, he's a fugitive!
Also have you seen his face?And why would he be into dudes anyway? MEN ARE GROSS, HUGHES][VIDEO]
[ Pause, pause. Hmm. Not in a position? ]
There are plenty of handsome men as well, if that's more your preference!
[VIDEO]
What? That's not what I meant!
[OH MY GOD WHAT ARE YOU AND WHAT DOES HE DO WITH YOU]
...I've been on the run from the military for seven years. I'm not gonna get married, Hughes. I wouldn't want to put someone I love in danger like that.
[VIDEO]
But you're no longer on the run now, right? [ YOU'RE KIND OF DEAD? You both kind of know this. MIGHT AS WELL MAKE THE BEST OF IT \o/ ]
There's still plenty time to settle down~ Why not start now?
[VIDEO]
No thanks. I'm really not interested.
[...He's painfully aware of his looks, okay. Not to mention his age... orz]
[VIDEO] 1/2
[ Okay, finally moving the Eevee aside and peering into the screen now ]
[VIDEO] 2/2
[ Doesn't matter how you answer. He's pretty much decided for you. ]
