[Audible, and visible here and there, is an exceptionally pathetic Feebas flopping along behind, trying to keep up as best it can as a fish out of water.]
[After a minute of THAT, whoever it is stops, and turns towards the fish, who stops at their feet, looking positively pitiful. It's hard to tell what it's trying to convey, pitiful just seems to be its natural state.]
How did you even – what bird dropped you here? [There's a long moment of silence as he's pondering the fish, and the fish is looking up at him... then a long-suffering sigh.]
Here. [He's scooping up the fish at arm's length, walking over to the coast edge, and …. depositing it in the water. Then turning to walk away.]
[It's quiet behind him for a moment – but only because the Feebas is swimming back to get a good head start, launching out of the water to land not far behind him and continue flopping along behind – at which he freezes, and turns back to stare at it again.]
Oh for the love of – how hard were you dropped?
[Then follows attempt number two at returning the fish to the water. And walking away. And the fish launching itself out of the water again.]
….......................This has to be some kind of a joke.
[OOC: For those in New Bark Town, he can be found on the south edge of town, near the water, seriously puzzled by his seemingly suicidal starter and trying to figure out how the fish hasn't suffocated yet on land. It probably won't take him very long to figure out the Pokégear once there's a video call.]

Date: 2011-05-16 06:43 am (UTC)From:If you can call it normal. But here, I guess so. They like to be in the water, but they don't suffocate when they're out of it.

Is there someone who decides the "companion" or is that some sort of mystical bond of unknown origin? []

"Karma" it is.
I imagine that's my only hope, then.

Well, at least it's not suicidal.
My apologies, have we met?

Perhaps not. Does the Cycle of Conflict mean anything to you?

Thank you for the information - that should make this much easier.

Date: 2011-05-17 04:24 am (UTC)From:No, I'm afraid not.
Should it be familiar?

Date: 2011-05-17 04:33 am (UTC)From:Not necessarily. The people here come for across time and space. Though I did know you at one point in time, it seems that you are from before that time.
[This might be more convenient, actually. It means that there would be no bad blood between them, if it ever existed in the first place.]

Guessing you've noticed this isn't where any of us belong.

Date: 2011-05-17 12:43 pm (UTC)From:Though I haven't seen anyone with that pokemon before, it seems a little strange to have a fish for your first companion. Are you really fond of water, or from a place that is mostly ocean or something like that? [[truly curious, since from what little he could tell, most people's starters had some sort of significance or link to the person they attached to.]]
