[Graduation hadn't happened yet? Oh... oh no. This Tristan must be another one of those memory recreated NPCs like he'd seen in Duel Links. It'd been more than a little jarring seeing a recreation of others from how they'd appeared around the time of the Battle City Tournament in Kaiba's game world, but encountering the digitally-reconstructed version of himself had been surreal in the extreme. With a Marik pulled from right around there running around too Joey doesn't really have any other conclusion to come to but to assume that this place is running on a similar program to how Duel Links had been doing it. After all, there was no way they were the real deals if they came from the past was there?]

Oh... Tristan...

[Joey makes a sad face.]

You're tellin' me you graduation ain't happened for ya yet? If dat's da case, and you say dat da Grand Championship was only a bit ago... I don't know how ta say dis without you kickin' my butt, but I think you might be a digital version'a you man.

[Joey readies for his friend to either give him a weird look or a punch in the face, as that's probably exactly what he'd be handing-out in the same situation.]

See... you n' me already graduated man. You went off ta work with ya dad and I stahted tryin' ta be a pro-duelist for real. All dat stuff with da Kaiba Corp. Grand Championship was a couple'a years ago man.

[The serious turn causes him to forget he was about to dig in the pack, let alone the missing monkey, but he sits hovered over the flap's opening despite the interruption.]

What's with that look?

[The somber expression caught the brunette offguard and he dropped some of his earlier attitude. Then Joey just has to go and throw in that bizarre hypothesis.]

......... And this is why we leave the thinking to someone else.

[It sounded a bit harsh but was delivered so calmly.]

I just had you in a chokehold like five minutes ago. Didn't that feel real enough for you?

[Surprisingly, neither form of retribution followed.]

Okay, that explains part of why you think I couldn't be real but not why you concocted such a crazy idea in the first place. Why would I be digital?! Seriously, who is going to program me into a video game?

[A future factory worker doesn't exactly sound like an exciting npc to him. They both forget about the pokemon for now, and that suits chimchar just fine as he uses the light from his tail to help him search through this bag for delicious looking things.]
