[index error] fourth wall

[digitalorunknown]

[The form-restoring effect didn't hit Dorumon until he got involved in a computer-related mishap at the Violet City Pokemon Center. His Pokemon vanish into the PC, and he...

...is sent careening across Kan-Joh's cyberspace. When he's not being dumped in front of PC stations in Pokemon Centers, he's being bodily ejected from the communications network via people's Pokegears. Be careful turning yours on today - a three-foot beastdragon may come flying out haphazardly.]

I've..been going in and out of the network all day, and I can't control it. [He scootches away from Kayneth a little, not feeling very comfortable talking to an adult.] I'm Dorumon.

...well, I suppose if things are going completely haywire for you, it can be excused...

[...there is a hint of "unless there is a way you can figure out how to and you haven't been paying enough attention to figure it out yet" in his tone.]

How are you even doing that, anyway?

[digitalorunknown]

I'm made of data. [Scootches a little further.]

[enjoymyatelier]

...Ah. So it's... like how you can store Pokemon in the PCs, except that's your natural state?

[HE'S NOT GOOD AT TECH AND THAT'S THE BEST WAY HE CAN THINK OF TO DESCRIBE IT. Anyway this thing looks... kind of like a Pokemon but not really?]

[digitalorunknown]

I think so. [Headtilts.] This started happening when I tried to put my Pokemon into that network. [He stands up slowly, shaking out the aches in his legs and picking a twig out of his tail.

...I... see. Well, things do get a bit out of hand during these sorts of events, so I wouldn't worry about it being a regular thing if I were you.

[digitalorunknown]

These sort of...? [He looks up, then around himself, humming uneasily. Where the hell did he land this time? And...maybe there's a tree or something he could climb to get a better look...?]

[enjoymyatelier]

[They're... well... wherever... there are trees around, at least, but that's not a particularly good indicator since there are plenty of woodsy routes in both Johto and Kanto...]

Ah, you probably weren't around for the last one... something like this seems to happen every six months, although apparently we've only been able to remember what occurred during the last one. I've been around for three, counting this one.
