[Camilla looks at the boy, he's so tall! He seems to be really good friends with his own weird looking animal, and she hums at his words.

When the berry is offered to her though, she takes it with a smile.]

Thank you, young man.

[She offers the Flabébé the berry, who takes it in her little hands and smells it, taking a small bite out of it and doing a pirouette.]

I think she likes it! Where did you get it from?

cherrygrove city!

[fatefulprince]

[ <sub>Corrin loved taking strolls on the beach - listening to the tranquil sounds of the ebbing tide became a favourite past time for the prince. He was joined by his galarian ponyta, who was trotting beside him while seeming to enjoy the feeling of the wind blowing through her mane. He can't resist exchanging a few fond glances at his little equine friend who he had become incredibly attached to since his arrival in this strange new world.

It had been jarring to appear in a new place without a single soul that he knew from home, and he certainly missed his family a lot. While following his usual walking route, something in the distance catches his attention that makes him stop in his tracks, his galarian ponyta staring up at him in confusion while the prince gazes out at the person in front of him.

From a distance, he sees a very familiar wave of purple hair that reminded him of his big sister. Could it be...? With nothing to lose, he approaches her, unable to resist investigating.</sub> ]

Camilla...? Is that really you?

[grandtrashking]

It's no problem.

[Really, it's not as he gives a smile, and he's behaving himself since he doesn't know when Iwaizumi would suddenly appear and throw something at him for being a pest.

The Flabébé enjoying the berry is a nice sight though, confirming what he's been thinking about different species.]

Some of the Pokémon find them while walking with you, but they grow on some trees too. They have healing powers too, for the Pokémon.

[bewitchingbeauty]

Healing powers?

[She looks at the cute doggy looking pokémon this boy has, and then at her precious Flabébé and raises her visible eyebrow.]

Why do they need healing?

[bewitchingbeauty]

Mmm?

[Camilla moves her hair away from her face as she turns, and gasps.]

Corrin! My dear little brother~

[She goes to hug him but stops herself before she touches him. She's talked with him about her behaviour and she knows Corrin doesn't like being hugged without saying yes.]

I- I can't believe you're here too, and you have such a cute little horse with you.

[fatefulprince]

Adorable creature, isn't she?

[ _{Corrin laughs fondly and beams a wide smile as his ponyta curiously interacts with Camilla's flabébé.} ]

I've really missed you, big sis.

[ _{Camilla may be elated to witness Corrin outstretch his arms to invite her in for a hug. It's true that he had laid down his own boundaries for independence and to not be treated like a little child, but ... he was just so very happy to see one of his precious Nohrian siblings. He couldn't resist.} ]

[cyan_maid]

[Good, save your sanity.]

All of your colleagues? Hm...then, if it was connected to this place, it would stand to reason that they are here too. But if it wasn't connected, I think it might be something more unique to your world that was happening, and you could've gotten caught up in coming here instead of what was going to happen.

[scalpelofmarmora]

[It pleased him to hear that. His sacrifice had been worth it then since Voltron and so many others had been able to fight back against the Galra Empire. None of that would have been something he could have arranged in life so it had been worth it]

It is good that the resistance to the Empire has grown and been able to fight back. Ah, so Keith is part-Galra then. He was asking about my blade when we were on the Communications Base Thaldycon, but he did not mention anything that would have told me he was.

[scalpelofmarmora]

[As he spoke, Poochyena was staring rather intently at the screen. So many pokemons and they were all so far away, but yet so close...]

I suppose some form of quintessence could be responsible for the intelligence of these creatures, though it would be hard to confirm for certain without a way to detect it. The ones I have seen so far have been very smart.

[Aww... Poochyena knew that included her so she made a happy sound and nuzzled up against him. Partner was calling her smart. Ulaz couldn't help a faint smile and reached to pet her]

Would you also be interested in trying to learn? [He asked this to his Poochyena, who made another sound] Sounds like that might have been agreement.

[scalpelofmarmora]

[Well, the new appearance was clearly throwing people off as to who he was. Mentally he sighed, not because it was Shiro's fault for not recognizing, but because this might be a frequent problem with people from their world]

Ulaz.

[scalpelofmarmora]

[Well, it definitely seems that they are not devoid of intelligence as he watched some of them move with a definite goal. They were just very slow about it. What natural adaptation had led to that? Seemed almost counterintuitive.

Poochyena seemed, for the moment, not consider them worth the time to even growl at - maybe because it took them so long to act scared that it wasn't any fun - so a nap next to Ulaz was in order.

Ulaz glanced up at Camilla speaking to them]

Very. I have not seen anything like them.

[heartofalioness]

[Another nod, her smile growing more proud.]

I'm sure Keith will tell you more himself- he is also in this world, along with most of Team Voltron and your fellow Blade Thace- but apparently his mother is also a Blade.

[survivetogether]

Wall Rose?

[Again, there’s no recognition there. Moreover, the longer she puzzles over it, the more irritated she feels. The last thing she wants is more questions when all she seeks is answers.]

Where is that in relation to Eorzea? Can you at least manage to answer that much?

[survivetogether]

[To her credit, she listens patiently. She always has, when it comes to the Warrior. There’s always been a level of honesty there between them. It’s not like speaking with her brother, or the instructors and professors at the Studium. Despite everything, she’s only ever felt like their equal.]

It always comes back to you, doesn’t it?

[There’s a note of amusement in her voice, but it’s belied by a heavy layer of concern. G’rhyf carried the weight of the world on their shoulders, after all. The weight of several worlds, even.]

So, how did averting the Calamity go this time?

[survivetogether]

Sounds familiar.

[Except someone had a tendency to both worry and scold. But that’s fine. The sentiment is understood, at least.]

At least I can take comfort in that. It does not make this mess any more bearable, but… [She trails off, shaking her head.] Do we really not have access to any of our abilities here?

[survivetogether]

[The woman before her isn’t wrong. Alisaie was being particularly rude. But still - ]

My apologies, I must have left my manners in another world. I will remember to bring them the next time I am kidnapped.

[lordofthefries]

[Sure, she can at least answer that much easily enough.]

I have never heard of Eorzea.

[The Togepi in her arm trills as if he's backing her up by saying neither one of them have heard of this Eorzea place. Good boy, Omelette.]

I think we are from different worlds. That is why I do not know what this Eorzea is and maybe why you do not know of Wall Rose? Or any of the walls?

[Lucky her for not knowing why the walls exist in the first place.]

[bewitchingbeauty]

[Camilla is so excited when Corrin opens his arms and she rushed to hug him tight against her chest. She's slightly shorter as always, but she still brings a hand up to pet his hair. It's not like she hadn't seen Corrin and the others just yesterday, but it feels so nice to be told she's missed.

She lets go of him after a bit, not wanting to make things awkward, but she smiles and offers her hand to the small horse.]

She's so graceful.

[bewitchingbeauty]

They're a really bright colour, which I did not expect from a creature so slow.

[Predators can see them from afar!]

What's the name of the one sleeping beside you, if you don't mind me asking?

[bewitchingbeauty]

[Camilla rolls her eye and crosses her arms under her bust.]

You're trying to get someone to help you, so you have to mind your manners, kidnapped or not.

[Then she relaxes slightly, letting one arm fall and raises her hand to pet her Flabébé.]

Which, by the way, I'm not sure we were kidnapped, more like transported to a different world.

[There's a difference! She knows this! She's been to a different world after all. Well, dimension, but still.]

[fayblood]

"Oh. I think she does that to everyone..."

Shrike doesn't like to think about that part though.

"I don't know. Just, sometimes people just disappear."

[songofthedawn]

'Tis simply my fate, it seems. [They grin and shrug, taking something close to their usual light-hearted tone when dodging the question of their burdens, but there's something of a solemn undertone to it this time.] But none of it has ever been accomplished alone, really.

[They never could have made those last few steps without everyone's help.]

Well, the part about fighting all the Lightwardens didn't go too badly. Tracking each of them down was a challenge, and considering the identity of the last-- [Ah, they're getting ahead of themself.] But there were other complications along the way. It was...after the second Lightwarden fell, that the Ascian Emet-Selch revealed himself to us. One of the Unsundered. He claimed he did not intend to interfere, but to judge us and whether we were worth courting as allies. You can imagine how well that went over to start...

[crystalmaster]

Radley stared in disbelief. "She tries to pass herself off as everyone's mom?! That's sick! And people disappear?! That's no guarantee they're going home! How do we know where they go?!"

He drew a shaking breath and tried to calm down. He usually tried to keep himself from getting so emotional, but this was growing more frightening by the moment. What was he going to do?! How would he ever get home?!

"Eevee?" His Eevee looked up at him in concern.

He sighed and petted her. "We have to figure out something. This PokeGear thing ... could we arrange a meeting with everyone who's been sent here by using the Network? Maybe together, we could all figure out some way to get home...."

[fayblood]

He's still not touching the 'mom' issue, but this guy's clearly upset.

"Sometimes people leave and come back! That's what happened to Sandalphon. One day I got up and his Pokémon were still here but he was gone. Then later he came back again. When he was gone he was back where he came from."

Does that explain things better? Shrike sure hopes it does. He isn't very good at this.

[crystalmaster]

"He remembers going home? I'd like to talk to him," Radley said. "Hey, I'm sorry I lost it there. You must be worried too, if you're stuck here like me. Have you ever run into anybody who plays Duel Monsters? They might be from my world." Maybe, for all he knew, everyone he knew was already here. Maybe he just needed to find them.
