4th roar [video + action for anyone anywhere apparently ]

[adamant]

[ The camera feed opens to reveal...Jigglypuffs.



Yes indeedy, all of Leon's team have been ~*~magically~*~ transformed into Jigglypuffs. The first one opens its mouth, cawing like a Skarmory. The second one rumbles out in an Onix's deep bass. The third just kind of...rolls there, making wet noises. And the fourth looks positively horrified, making distressed Scyther shrieks. Yes, even Green. Sorry, Zack! ]

Someone had better have a good explanation for this.

I think it might have been that strange light, actually.

...Any kind, really. I've made quite a lot. I didn't know what sort that purple Pokémon likes.

[video]

[adamant]

Huh. Looks like we're not the only ones. [ There are only about FIFTY THREE BEELLION NEW POSTS TODAY. Whoops. ]

...even ham and cheese on rye?

[video]

[paladinlost]

Better this than the pixels.

[He digs around in the closest sandwich pile, and finally takes one out.] Would that be it?

[action]

[adamant]

I guess so. At least the pixels were--

[ SUDDENLY, TELEPORTATION. BRB LANDING FACE FIRST ON YOUR FLOOR, CECIL. ]

[action]

[paladinlost]

[...uh.]

I was going to ask Esuna to bring it to you, but I suppose this is quicker.

[action]

[adamant]

[ He is just going to. Pick himself up. YOU SAW NOTHING. He touches his nose gingerly. ]

You would think mass hallucinations wouldn't hurt so much.

[action]

[paladinlost]

[Saw nothing. Really.]

It must be a flaw in whatever caused it. Or perhaps a deliberate feature. 'Complete realism, pain included'.

[action]

[adamant]

I--yeah, yeah, I guess so.

[ THE ALTERNATIVE IS A BIT MUCH TO BEAR. He's just going to look at Cresselia, who I'm presuming is still there, looking badass.. ]

Who's your friend?

[action]

[paladinlost]

Her name is Cresselia, as far as I know. She was in my room when the flash woke me up. [Cresselia trills a greeting before going back to her sandwich.]

[action]

[adamant]

[ Leon is just going to take that sandwich now. That perfectly normal, ham-and-cheese-on-rye sandwich. Om nom nom nom. ]

This is a good sandwich, Cecil.

[action]

[paladinlost]

Thank you. I think I might have actually have prepared that one.

[action]

[adamant]

[ Pause. ]

The other ones are store-bought?

[action]

[paladinlost]

From what I can tell, they're multiplying.

[action] this is the best conversation ever

[adamant]

[ He'll just. Pause. For a long time. ]















[ Putting the sandwich back down, now. ]

[action] hell yes it is

[paladinlost]

I meant that I have three copies of the same pile. Not that they are reproducing. ...Probably.

[action] /brofist

[adamant]

[ Teeeeentatively picking up the sandwich aga--WHAT DO YOU MEAN PROBABLY. ]





[ Pause. ]





I'll, uh, take your word for it, then.

[ ...tentative noms. ]

[action] /double brofist

[paladinlost]

People have been showing up everywhere, along with Pokémon none of us had ever heard of. What are self-replicating sandwiches compared to that?

...Besides, they haven't attacked me yet. Therefore, they must not be sentient.

[action] /ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE SKYYYY

[adamant]

Maybe they just...like you. Because you're a nice guy.


[ He's taking a really big bite out of the sandwich now. BRB KILLING ALL POSSIBILITY OF SENTIENCE OM NOM NOM. ]

[action] /BEYOND THE END OF THE UNIVERSE

[paladinlost]

They might simply be extremely self-sacrificing. Or not sentient.

[action] /OMG SO INTENSE!!!11!!11

[adamant]

Or not sentient. Right.

[ He looks at Cresselia. Just trying to get his mind of sentient sandwiches. ] So, she just...appeared?

[action] /THE WORLD WILL NEVER WITHSTAND IT!!!!!

[paladinlost]

In my bedroom, out of nowhere, right after that flash. I suspect it dragged her here, but I have no idea where she comes from.

[action]

[adamant]

Probably the same thing that happened to my team, then. That flash, and--poof.

[ Tentapuff is waddling into your lap now, Cecil. Hope you don't mind. ]

It's too bad they can't talk, isn't it?

[action]

[paladinlost]

Hopefully we'll find out what caused it.

[Tentapuff gets absentminded scritches behind his very pink ears. And a sandwich.]

That would make everything much more simple.

[action]

[adamant]

I doubt it. We never find out what causes these things. We don't even know how we got here, in the first place.

[ Tentapuff does not have Leon's reservations, and noms that sandwich right up. ]

[action]

[paladinlost]

And this whole world appears to possess no public records, which makes looking for an explanation much harder. If the information even exists, that is.
