first game; VIDEO. action for new bark i guess but who is even in new bark right now?
[ It takes her no time at all to figure out how to work the gear. Nanami is good with electronics, especially the handheld sort that hold games on them (and she did look at the games that came preloaded first off, and then wasted some of her starter cash on one or two of the others...) so it was easy.
...Except that after she finished playing around with that, Nanami spent several days trying to play the game. As in "Pokémon". She eventually gives this up, but it admittedly takes a while. After turning on the video function, she pauses. Takes a moment to collect her thoughts. This is accomplished by staring off into space before refocusing. ]
...Hello. My name is Nanami Chiaki. I’m a Super High-school Level Gamer. ...I'm pretty good with all genres.
[ That's the unimportant stuff. Moving on to the stuff that actually matters: ]
...Although this is certainly "Pokémon", it's a sequel or something, right? New locations, new creatures...even so, there are so many differences compared to that game, aren't there? Almost too many...
[ She puffs out her cheeks, a silent pout, before continuing past her pause. ]
...I started out with a partner already, without having to visit the Professor. There was no point where I was supposed to choose my partner...or my gender, or name, although I don't mind that. ...While I like Munna, that's a little weird, isn't it? And even if the plot is different in this game, which is normal...
I haven't been able to trigger any quests so far, you know? Or tutorials. ...Maybe that ferry to Kanto would be the right choice, but couldn't that be a case of skipping ahead to the boss area without being properly leveled? That I haven't even had a rival encounter, isn't that worrying?
[ Nanami falls silent for a second before her main concern comes out, said more quietly than the rest, though she hadn't been speaking loudly to start with. ]
...It's not working properly.
[ That's...that's apparently all she wanted to bring up...? Trapped in the world of Pokémon, her main concern is apparently that the game is wrong. Where are the quests she knows she ought to be having, or the characters she ought to be meeting? Perhaps it's best to leave her to it...Ah, no, wait. It appears she has a bit more to say. ]
...If there's a new sequence to trigger the main quest, I'd like to know that, please. I'll keep trying to find it in the meantime. ...Ah, it's hard to trigger secret codes if you're in the game itself, isn't it...? At least, the normal codes are a no-go. I'll have to think of something else.
[ ...never mind, this is absolutely the time to leave her to her thoughts. Nanami ends the video after another pause, undoubtedly going off to try to "start" her game once again. ]

[ It is both of those things. She's pretty sure. ]
[video]
[video]
[ No pauses, here. She's got this. ]
[video]
You could try collecting a certain type of Pokemon, too, or discovering new ones. That's like another mission, isn't it?
[video]
[ Head tilt. Do tell, stranger whose name she still doesn't know. ]
Um...that's usually a mission. The Professor would give you an empty pokedex, and filling it would be what you would do...
[video]
[This makes a lot more sense now that she knows it's based on a video game.]
Oh, well he seems to have messed up, he never mentioned anything about cataloging them when he gave this device to us.
[video] 1/2
[ Yes, she's just standing in silence. ]
[video] 2/2
[ Nanami sounds sincerely apologetic about this. ]
[video]
It's all right, Nanami-chan! I-it's not as though I can trust my memory most of the time, I've met a lot of different people in my life time and have had to remember different things about them. Who knows? Maybe somewhere, some years ago I met a girl with your name and am just mixing it up!
B-besides, most people wouldn't know me by sight anyway, I'm not...err...a common thing to see under normal circumstances.
[video]
[ Let her consider that for a second. ]
...A ghost? ...I don't know your name still, ah...
[video]
[video]
It's nice to meet you, too, Botan-san.
[video]
Ah--come now, the formalities aren't necessary, just Botan is fine!
[video]
Ah...Botan, then. It's nice to meet you.
