Second Web | Video

How long does it take to get through this stupid forest?

[...oh wait, it'd probably help if the people watching could actually see the forest. So Kaine'll just turn on the video and there's well, a bunch of trees. It's the Viridian Forest, so yeah, not much to see here besides a forest. And bugs. There's a bunch of bug Pokemon crawling around on the trees.]

It took two days to get here, I've been in here for three, and I pretty much never want to see a forest again for the rest of my life.

[He's only even in here because his Pokemon stole his pack and dragged it out of town. Because if he had things his way, he would've stayed in Viridian City forever. But noooo, his Natu just had to get tired of staying there and drag him in here.]

So that's been what? Five days since I left town? And I've spent most of them walking, so the next town has to be coming up soon...right?

[He doesn't sound confident about that at all. And why should he? For all he knows, the map's lying and this forest just goes on and on forever. Because that...doesn't exactly sound like something that could happen here, but at the same time he wouldn't really be surprised if it actually did somehow happen to him.]

You don't have to apologize, it's more than fine..! I don't think it's exactly very common, after all. But having a Pokemon that's a Queen on my team...

I dunno, having another reminder of my sister would be awfully nice.

[theotherother]

...I don't think I'd want a constant reminder of my brother here.

[Or brothers, actually. ...and he sort of said that without thinking, so he'll just try and move away from that topic really quickly.]

Look, if I see something like that, I'll let you know, I guess.

[Apparently he can be nice.]

Don't get your hopes up though. I'm probably not going to go out of my way to look for the damn thing or anything like that.

[...sort of nice anyway.]

[loveisanopendoor]

Well, I appreciate you keeping an eye out! I don't want you in that forest for any longer than you have to be. It even has a form before it becomes a Queen, as well...it looks kinda like this!

[Looks like she's going to be sending a picture as an attachment!]



Isn't it cute? But apparently, only the girl ones can evolve and become queens. Makes sense, right?

[theotherother]

Yeah.

[Wow, something that makes sense. He's kinda...stunned by this.]

Haven't seen anything like that in here though.

[loveisanopendoor]

I kinda figured. Thanks for your help anyway, though! I hope you get out of there soon, really.

...By the way, I'm Princess Anna, of Arendelle. But just Anna will be more than fine!

[theotherother]

[He's never met a princess before and he's not really sure what to even say here.]

Like with a castle and your parents are royalty and all that?

[He's at least trying to process this.]

[loveisanopendoor]

Yes, with a castle, though I haven't been there in a few months now. And my parents were royalty, but...

[Let's not dwell on that.]

Now my sister Elsa is the Queen!

[theotherother]

Really? That's...

[Hang on, there's a word he's looking for...what is it again?]

...weird.

[Not exactly the one he was looking for, but the first thing that came to mind.]

[loveisanopendoor]

Well, that's the way it works. She was next in line for the throne, that's all there is to it.

[theotherother]

No, not that I mean-

[There's really no way to say that the whole princess thing is weird without coming across as a jerk is there?]

Look, just forget it.

[Yeah, now he totally doesn't look like a jerk, right?]

[loveisanopendoor]

What's the matter? Never met a princess before? I mean, I get that more often than you'd think, honestly.

[theotherother]

Yeah, that's exactly it.

[And yet he's met a giant electricity monster, werewolves, and a bunch of other weird stuff. He's not sure what that says about his life.]

[loveisanopendoor]

Well, I mean, there's a first time for everything, right..?

[theotherother]

Yeah, that's true. That's definitely true.

[loveisanopendoor]

So, do you not have a name, then, mister?

[She says, with a bit of a giggle...]

[theotherother]

Kaine. My name's Kaine.
