Option #1 - Bike Shop, Eterna City



[It's been 20 minutes since she entered the shop to try her experiment, and Rey is quickly becoming exasperated.]

Look, I know that the green bike is more appropriate for rough terrain, and that the yellow one is better for the city. I'm not interested in their technical details, I just want to know which one you like better.

[The clerk - who doesn't seem exasperated in the slightest - simply tilts his head at her...before asking which one she prefers.

Rey grips the counter and sighs.]

It doesn't...that's the point, I don't know which one I like better so I want you to choose. Please...

[Another experiment failed; another wasted conversation. What was wrong with the people here?]



Option #2 - Route 204



[If you happen to be making your way from Jubilife City into the wilderness, you might spot a young woman determinedly striding her way along. She's walking with purpose and seems very prepared; she's got a rather fat backpack on, and a sturdy walking stick. She doesn't seem to be using the stick properly, however - rather than using it to aid her climb towards Ravaged Path, she's carrying it at her side.]

Come on. The sooner we get through this section, the sooner we'll reach that town.

[She appears to be talking to the small Pokemon floating around her head - who, at this moment, is far more focused on you.]

Klink?

[It doesn't take long for the girl's attention to also be drawn to you. Turning to face you, she raises a quizzical eyebrow.]

...are you alright?

A... ship?

[well, all things considered, they're from different realities, so some stuff is going to be weird.]

Well, anyway, I'm from London, England, which you may or may not be familiar with. I have no idea what world you're from, but it may very well exist there.

[greydients]

England?

[Well, that's a new one. Maybe it's in the Outer Realm?]

Sorry, no, I can't say I know it. I'm from Jakku, myself, though I'd understand if you haven't heard of it.

[It is pretty much nowhere, after all.]

I take it you've also had trouble with the people here, then?

[enjoymyatelier]

...hmm. Well, I suppose I can see somewhere being named Jakku, but I suppose there are enough parallel worlds that there'd be one where England doesn't exist, even if you... do sound a bit like you're from there.

[what the fuck are accents, honestly]

I'm not sure if "trouble" is the word I'd use for it, given that they seem to go out of their way to avoid causing it, but. Yes, I get what you're saying.

[greydients]

I'm sure it's a lovely planet.

[Can't be worse than Jakku, anyway!]

And when you put it that way...I suppose things could be worse. It's just so strange...I'd assume they were droids, but even droids have some semblence of a personality.

[Shaking her head, Rey crosses her arms and looks off to the side, thinking.]

I don't know, I just...feel sad for them.

[enjoymyatelier]

...oh, no, it's... a country on a planet. I'm guessing you're from a reality where space travel is more of a thing, then? We've only recently managed it back home.

[wait. uh. droids.]

But no, I'm fairly certain they're fleshy and not... androids. It's really rather unnerving.

[greydients]

[....

...only....recently managed it?]

...wait, are you saying that you don't travel between planets back on-sorry, in England?

[.....huh]

Which planet are you from, exactly?

[enjoymyatelier]

It's called Earth. Have you heard about it? It's... well, I'd assume where humans are from, but I really have no idea if it's the same where you're from.
