((OOC: oh my god, you guys, what am I even doing? Late intro is so late because of NaNoWriMo and I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING, besides. Enjoy :'D Sorry if I derp this up like the derp I am. Also, feel free to add your own character tags. Tag add new/delete and add/remove to entry is set to any user because I am too trusting))
[the feed shows Douglas Cartland blinking in the middle of a random field in the sunlight, shielding his eyes from the sun. He's got his 'gear in one hand and his Shuckle in the other and he's staring hard into the screen]
How the heck do I... how am I supposed to work this thing? Is it like a phone? One of those new video phone things or...
[pause]
Oh, it's recordin'. Okay. Well uh... not sure if anybody can hear this but I'd really like to know where I am. Some woman gave me lunch and shoved me outside when I woke up this morning, but that's not really important. What I really wanna know is where I woke up.
Hello? Anybody listenin'?
[he frowns]
There's no way this is Maine.
[he resists the urge to say "I have a feeling I'm not in Kansas anymore", because this isn't the time at all]

Date: 2011-11-11 11:02 pm (UTC)Would ya happen to know anything about how I got here?
video
Date: 2011-11-11 11:11 pm (UTC)Oh, but don't worry! You get used to Johto after a while-- and I'm pretty sure Maine didn't go anywhere, either.
video
Date: 2011-11-11 11:15 pm (UTC)Well, I guess you can get used to anything after a while, huh?
Even if it's under weird circumstances, it's nice to meet ya. My name is Douglas Cartland.

Date: 2011-11-11 11:20 pm (UTC)[... wait a minute. wait a minute. a Douglas. from Maine. the place with, to quote Heather more than a year ago, the weirdos and the seafood.]
[............ Sora must investigate further. it's what a good detective would do!]
Sir, would you by any chance know a Heather Mason?
video
Date: 2011-11-11 11:23 pm (UTC)Yeah. Heather's a friend of mine from back home. How'd ya know that? Do you know her?
video; i apologize for this
Date: 2011-11-11 11:40 pm (UTC)[because, more than a year ago, Sora asked Heather what the world she's from is like-- and she described Maine as being a place chock full of weirdos.]
[however! there is one weirdo Sora had promised to keep an eye out for on her behalf. "a kinda burly old guy with a trenchcoat, a fedora, and a scraggly beard." named Douglas.]
-- Stay right there, okay? Don't go anywhere!
[he may as well be flailing at the 'gear-- and maybe he is, once he ducks out of the camera's gaze. enjoy that view of the wall, Douglas.]
video; YOU NEVER HAVE TO APOLOGIZE
Date: 2011-11-12 12:22 am (UTC)O--[but Sora's already rushed off, leaving Douglas to stare at the wall]--kay...
video
Date: 2011-11-23 08:26 pm (UTC)[but just you wait. you are not escaping just yet.]
I couldn't find it, but that's okay! Heather's told me all about you, sir.
video
Date: 2011-11-29 08:31 pm (UTC)She said good stuff, I hope?
video
Date: 2011-12-03 02:45 pm (UTC)[... well, okay, she called him a weirdo. but it totally a term of endearment! at least, Sora's pretty sure it was.]
She asked me to keep an eye out for you in case you ever showed up here.
video
Date: 2011-12-05 07:35 pm (UTC)Well uh... here I am, I guess. Even though I'm still not sure how I got here.
