[Okay the new guy is just going to cut to the chase here.]

2 questions:

1. why am i human?

2. what is the fastest/easiest way to get home?

[There is a pause before his next text, realizing that he should probably be more polite about these questions.]

please respond asap. i'd really appreciate it.

[Perfect.]

[SORRY PERRY the foot-in-mouth syndrome sometimes translates to text when he's trying to go about it a little too fast.]

That's right. If you end up going back home, you'll return right to where you left it.

[Gosh now Perry feels kind of embarrassed that he got so worked up then.]

well this situation is a lot easier now.

i'm also guessing that these "pokemon" are actually ours until we go home?

[samsa]

They are, yes. ...I don't know if you have it back home, but...this world is based on a children's video game. Or...more like it actually is the world of one, I guess.

It's difficult to try to explain.

[doesntdomuch]

so i'm stuck in a video game world?

[Well this sounds familiar.]

how did this happen?

[text]

[samsa]

Sortof? I've never actually played the game so I'm not sure how exact things are, but it was pretty popular where I'm from.

I don't know. Nobody knows, actually...people just show up here and can't leave. I don't think anyone's ever been able to come up with an explanation for it.

[text]

[doesntdomuch]

do we even have a hint of who's behind this?

[Because Perry might be tempted to go beat up whoever's behind this.]

[text]

[samsa]

Not that I know of. There are people who have been here a lot longer than I have, so...I'm probably not the best person to ask.

[text]

[doesntdomuch]

thanks anyway. your information was useful.

i'm sure i'll get the opportunity to ask more people since it seems i'll be here for awhile.

[text]

[samsa]

You're welcome.

Yeah, a lot of other people will probably respond to your questions. Maybe you'll get a different answer.

[text]

[doesntdomuch]

good to know. i probably shouldn't spam this thing with questions though. maybe i'll wait to ask more questions?

[text]

[samsa]

People here are really good about answering questions people have, so it's really not a problem. You might get some answers you're looking for in other conversations, anyway.

[text]

[doesntdomuch]

good point.

thank you again. might i have a name so that i can properly thank you?

[text]

[samsa]

It's no problem, really. My name is Kaneki Ken.

[text]

[doesntdomuch]

then thank you Kaneki Ken. i'm Perry

[text]

[samsa]

You're welcome. I hope you can find the answers you're looking for, Perry-san.
