Noriaki Kakyoin | Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

[hadaeemadatawila]

1. [Action. Not far from Pallet Town]

[Noriaki Kakyoin, still not quite certain what he's doing here, is exploring some forest near Pallet Town. Not that there's anything exceptional about the forest, but surely it's still better than doing nothing.

Restless, Noriaki remembers his mother and father calling him that and he sighs a little. And wonders why his newly found friends never called him that. Well, almost never.
Perhaps because Mr Joestar's group can be even more restless than me at times, Kakyoin thinks.
He smiles a little and pats his Pokemon gently.]
"It's funny," [he mutters, not that his Morelull can understand it. Probably can't, he thinks so far. Unlike another companion.]

[Network (public) and very carefully rehearsed by him][Video]

Good morning. My name is Noriaki Kakyoin. New arrival, as of yesterday. This is the first time I've had a so-called Pokemon in my care. Since my arrival yesterday, I've read all I could on the subject. However, with an understanding that my pokemon's life is now my responsibility, I simply cannot afford to allow myself any ignorance or gaps in knowledge. Therefore, I wish to learn slightly more. If anybody's willing to indulge me with some answers, well.


[Hairflick. Even though he's trying not to.]

Well, then. All I will say, as a lost and helpless stranger in a strange land, is this: whoever you are, with almost no exceptions, you'll have my gratitude. Which might not mean much, so perhaps something else can be negotiated, too, as a recompensation for any help. Be assured, any kind stranger - straight after I found myself in an unexpectedly strange place, I've got no desire to ask anybody to be a good samaritan. I fancy myself a tad more realistic than that.

Hey man, no need for the formalities; I'm barely more of a greenhorn than you oughta be...
[Tomi places his hands on the back of his head in a halfhearted attempt to look cool and collected, but as he goes to lean back, his at-that-point invisible Sobble manifests on his shoulders, causing his to break his practised]
Jeez! Buddy! Gotta... stop doin that. Nah, I ain't mad at ya, ya just scared the Bejeezus outta me...
[Pretending as if nothing ever happened, Tomi turns to face his camera]
Anyway, you ever had one'a those virtual pets? They were all the rage when I was your age. Anyway, as I was saying... These guys're like, the final form of virtual pets! They're not just animals, they're a pet, companion and multitool all in one! Ain't that cool? Obviously, I'm not sayin' treat em like emotionless robots or what have ya, but you've seen the Smeargle Street Artists? The Oranguru Cafes? The Corviknight Taxis? [That particular reference gets a grin out of Tomi]. There's like, a symbiotic relationship these guys' got goin' on with us. Make sense?
