[Arthur leeeeeeans back a tad, eyes wide and darting off to the side for a moment, but there is no one to save him! Not that...well, you know, this is probably just a totally normal social interaction and Arthur's doing an Arthur.]

W-well, it's, uh...I mean, some of it's pretty simple. Like, this is the mechanism that makes it pop open if you press the button. Or, uh, throw it. At a Pokemon...apparently.

[He guesses???? He presses the button to show, though - the ball is kinda disassembled, but a piece of it still moves when he does.]

And then there's, uh. A magic pocket dimension thing or something? I think this - [Indicating a different bit.] - is the part that talks to the PC, but I dunno about any of the rest of it.

[keeneoncitrus]

So it's like a Bag of Holding? [what a weirdly specific example] Only they can only hold one Pokemon.

[He leans forward and grins, and stage-whispers behind his hand like he's trying to keep it on the downlow.]

But hey, if this thing can talk to computers, you think it'd mind us asking them how to get us home? [And he leans back to continue cheerfully.] Not that this place isn't great and all, but I've had my fill of this whole 'being human' thing!

[hatedthemost]

Uh - yeah, actually.

[He gets that reference! Not...too comfortable with this, still, but he at least restrains himself from visibly leaning back as the guy leans forward. Which...might not last, because:]

Wh. What do - what do you mean, "being human thing"?

[keeneoncitrus]

What, do you not have other races where you're from? [He grins, roguishly, and lifts a hand to tap off on his fingers.] Elves, firbolg, half-orcs and such.

[He leans back and plants a hand on his chest in a grandiose manner.] And water genasi like yours truly!

[hatedthemost]

Uhhhhh...

[please hold while arthur has a flashback to like, the entirety of lord of the rings and all its inspired properties]

...noooooo??? I mean, there's uh. There's...ghosts, and things. But those are like, mostly former humans, I think?

[keeneoncitrus]

Oh, those guys? Ghosts are jerks. You steal their treasure one time and they never let you hear the end of it!

[Is he telling the truth? Who knows.] And don't get me started on skeletons!

[He rests his chin on one hand while his Lotad wriggles slowly towards Arthur.]

But seriously, that's all you have? No other races, or- or magic or anything?

[hatedthemost]

...maaaaaybe?

[Like, Vivi would say yes. And Arthur can't really rule anything out, after the stuff he's seen. So maybe?]

I. One time I think I might've seen a plant lady? [Quick glance at the creeping Lotad.] But it could've been a dream, or - or a hallucination? It was right before I got here, and there was, uh...

[A lot of stuff?]

[keeneoncitrus]

[The Lotad stops immediately when Arthur looks at it. And immediately starts again when the guy looks away.]

Wow. Your world sounds boring as shit!

[He says it with a gleeful, shit-eating grin.]

I mean, I'm not much of a magic user myself, but I can't imagine living in just- a whole world that only has scraps of it! How lame would that be?

[hatedthemost]

Ohhhhhh, man. I would love the world to be more boring than it is.

[Why can't he live in a totally normal boring world?]

I - I used to like. Not even know that ghosts and shit were real.
