Everybody's talking about Valentine's Day coming up...

[And Jimmy's confused as hell, which is clear from his expression.]

How is that even here? This is like some whole other planet, how come an Earth holiday is celebrated?

And there's other stuff, too. It took me a little bit to realize it, but there's lots of stuff that's pretty familiar. Not the same, but close, you know? You'd think there'd be all kinds of differences. Not that this place ain't weird, it's weird as hell, but... come on, you get what I mean.

[Or at least he hopes other people from Earth get it. He's still trying to come to terms with the fact that all of this is real, but he's reached a point where he can start paying close attention to this wacky world he's ended up in.]

Is that 'cause of us, all the people who get dumped here? Or was it always like this?

[Well this escalated quickly.]

If humans evolved out of Pokemon, you'd think they'd at least get to keep the firebreathing!

But there's native people here who aren't from other worlds. And they aren't Poke...mon....

[Oh no. Oh NO. Envy looks like the worse has just occurred to him.]

[Ralph only knows what God is due to a few 'educational' games being plugged in during the old days of the arcade and various swears.]

I guess you could look at him as the programmer...but the players are the ones pushing the buttons and putting in the quarters.

When the natives die here, they can turn into Pokemon. Pokemon ghosts. I have one. His name's Edmund.

[THE NATIVES MIGHT ACTUALLY BE MAGIC POKEMON.]

That...might...what if that's what we're here for? What if they decided they needed more people and that's why they're bringing us here?

Yeah, it's coming up. My girl's still back home, though, so it's gonna suck.

Actually, we can't die.

We just...get knocked out and wake up a few days later at the hospital, don't ask me how THAT works. And I don't think the turning into Pokemon thing happens every time.

[But it's actually considerably less fucked up than dying and then coming back as a homunculus, because at least Edmund seems pretty okay with it. So Envy is not quite as horrified as Jimmy.]

Forgive me! What I mean to say is, while many things are familiar, the holidays really threw me for a loop! I'm used to only sharing one with the human world. I discovered a second, and now that I'm here, there are enough to make my head spin.

W-Well, where I'm from, on Valentines Day girls give boys chocolates, and then the next month on White day, the boys give girls chocolates.

Tantabata is the end of summer festival! There's a big party, and you write down a wish you really want to come true and hang it on some bamboo!

Yeah, but that's cheating.

Uh...I think it's cheating.....
exeggutorhead: (yeah well I guess so)

I told you I don't know how it works!

I haven't tried it myself, but I've seen it happen to other people.

[The incident at Nightmare Castle doesn't count, that place was weird.]
nasa_dreams: (Well that was strangely lucky./Good Save)

[Jimmy no, you're tempting him too strongly!] But...what if she finds out?

I like it best because I get to wear my special kimono and play the festival games!
