WEEK 1: April 2nd - April 6th

[cartesio]

Peace Week

Sunday must have been exhausting for you, maybe even upsetting. A new town, new faces and a an ominous order from a man without a face... who wouldn't be a little frightened? Hopefully, all of that is forgotten when you climb out from under your blankets this fine Monday. Rise and shine! A new morning is a new start!

If you make your way to the lounge, you will find a few copies of the local newspaper provided for your perusal. Once you go outdoors, you'll find the weather forecast 100% accurate. It's pretty impressive.

It seems that quiet mornings like this are going to be your everyday life now. Maybe you should see this whole stay as a vacation? Go out and explore the town, meet your fellow motel guests and meet the townspeople. They're sure to welcome you with a smile!

This week's special in the diner is lemon pie made with love (and a top-secret recipe)

... Pokemon? [ She's definitely unfamiliar with it, which is made obvious as she cants her head to the side, giving him a rather quizzical look. ] It was also 20XX [ because hell if I know what year Cardcaptor Sakura is actually in ] last I remember it. And it wasn't April back at home.

[silvertongueheir]

[He looks troubled. So far it seems no one he's asked about Pokemon knows what they are.]

Earlier than I recall then, though not by much. I'm from 20XX myself. Though if my hypothesis about us being from different worlds holds true that could simply be a difference in the date system.

[clearities]

Mm... but I don't think there were any years written on any of the calendars here, so I wouldn't know what year this place is in. But I'm pretty sure everyone is mostly from different worlds, although I think there are some people that might know each other from the same world...?

[silvertongueheir]

[He nods.] Still, the idea of worlds without Pokemon...it's startling to actually consider.

[clearities]

Is it really that bad...?

[silvertongueheir]

Pokemon are a natural part of society. They work together with Trainers in battles and help in so many occupations. They're important parts of the ecosystem. Humans and Pokemon aren't meant to be separated from each other. [He sounds very serious about that last part.]

[clearities]

I see. It must be important in your world, then.

[silvertongueheir]

Very much so. My team has flourished under my command, and have assisted me on many a mission.

[clearities]

That's really neat... ah, but wait, 'mission'?

[silvertongueheir]

[It was in the guestbook, so he doesn't really mind sharing it.] Ah-my usual position is as the leader of a team backed by the International Police. Currently we are working against the machinations of a despicable group known as Humanity's Wake, who believe humans have no need of Pokemon.

[clearities]

... Oh! That's why you said that.

[silvertongueheir]

[He nods.] I have little love or sympathy for their goals. Pokemon who wish for Trainers will seek them out just as easily as Trainers hunt for Pokemon.

[clearities]

I think... if that's the case in your world, then they really shouldn't be forcing a separation.

[silvertongueheir]

[A stern nod.] They're even worse than Plasma. At least some of them believed that separation was best for both humans and Pokemon. As you might be able to tell from the name, Humanity's Wake cares little for the welfare of Pokemon.

[clearities]

That's terrible...

[silvertongueheir]

[He seems pleased that she agrees on this.] Still, me and my team are doing our best to make sure they never succeed, and to discredit them.
