[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.]

No. Just addled.

well that's... weird.

has anyone tried to get her help?

text;

[bylight]

Yes. Nothing works. She's just broken.

As long as she doesn't get violent, we should be fine.

text;

[doesntdomuch]

"broken"?

[That sure is an interesting way to describe her condition.]

well if you're sure she'll be fine.

text;

[bylight]

She's been so far. There are people who have been here for years who assure me she's fine.

[doesntdomuch]

and is there anyone else here that acts like that?

text;

[bylight]

The professor, a few random town folk. Nothing much to worry about. They're harmless.

[doesntdomuch]

their ability to harm me isn't what i'm worried about.

[Because to be honest, Perry might think he's a little unbeatable in fights.]

oh.

i heard that this world was based on a video game. that might have something to do with it?

Why does everyone keep saying that?

If this was based on a game, why drag real people into this place? Why not just create your own?

text;

[doesntdomuch]

could be an accident.

i knew a couple of people who were able to create a video game world so i wouldn't say it's an impossibility.

This feels way too real to be a video game.

text;

[doesntdomuch]

it still would explain why some people here act robotic without being robots.

i've heard video games have become very realistic anyway

text;

[bylight]

I wouldn't know. I don't play video games.

text;

[doesntdomuch]

well "video game" does seem like a believable option for me.

although i guess it couldn't hurt to consider other options.

Maybe they have some twisted Pokémon god here or something.
