Test 001 | [Text]

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[It's been a couple weeks since Mewtwo's arrival to DeChima and he's spent a lot of it exploring his so-called new home. He wouldn't have bothered looking into the network were it not for the fact that the few people he met and left a more-than-negative-but-not-positive impression on him.

Communicating and being social aren't things that come naturally to an experiment like himself. But he had information he wanted and sending a mass text would get more results than flying and polling human after human. The less contact with humans the better.]

it's been a few days since I came here and it's obvious that I won't leave soon.

there is only one thing you need to know about me. I am unable to speak like most of you that is why I'm using text. you can call me Mewtwo. that's all.

there are a few things I want to know.

one. how many out there are with psychic moves or powers? I met one so far.

two. are there any prominent scientists in this region?

three. I want to know everything about the flying types in this region: all their names, their abilities, and why all of them have feathers.

Comments

[daimeinashi]

it is not difficult, either, when it is all you have ever known
unless you refer to the process of adjusting to being a person from how i was before

you are not human yourself, i assume?

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

yes I mean that.

no.

I'm not.

[daimeinashi]

what are you?

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

I don't know.

[daimeinashi]

how is that possible?

[it's a genuine question, not any kind of derision, though it may be difficult to tell through text]

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

it is if the circumstances are distressing enough.

[Hard to tell motive through text sometimes.]

[daimeinashi]

what circumstances?

[Oh, wait, Mewtwo said an extra thing when he'd asked something before, didn't he?]

i do not understand the purpose of stating that it is not necessary for you to answer
it is not as if i could coerce you to over the network

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

not over the network yes.

there are other ways. those are my circumstances.

[daimeinashi]

ah
torture?

[sAI YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ASK THAT KIND OF THING SO BLUNTLY]

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[Ok hitting to close on the nail there.]





it would be best to save those kind of questions in private.

[daimeinashi]

if you wish
where?

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

some place neutral. de chima.

[daimeinashi]

alright
we could meet at the porter and go elsewhere from there

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

I can do that.

action?

[daimeinashi]

i can arrive in fifteen minutes

action

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[If anything his signing off was a sign to let the other know that he understood. He gives no further notification as he floats on to the nearest porter. Of course he wouldn't show up without his human form.

Now all that remained was to wait for that amount of time.]

just curious, what does his human form look like?

[daimeinashi]

[Sai arrives in precisely fifteen minutes on the dot, stepping out of the Porter and looking around for anyone who looks like they might have been waiting for someone.]

You look human to me.

bald, round 19 years old of asian descent

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[He nods, realizing the confusion he might have caused.

< I like to be careful. This is just a disguise. >]

cool ty

[daimeinashi]

[...Did you just talk directly into his head. That's not the weirdest thing he's ever experienced, but it's still pretty weird. Sai blinks, slightly uncertain how to respond at first.]

Clever.

[Delivered totally deadpan, because that's just how he talks, but he's not being sarcastic. If he were in Mewtwo's shoes he'd be doing the exact same thing.]

Should I continue to answer you aloud, or will you be able to "hear" me if I think my responses back at you? Either is of little consequence to me, but you may find yourself drawing unnecessary attention should I be seen holding an apparently one-sided conversation with you.

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[He shrugs, slightly surprised he got a response like that.

< Keep talking. I can't exactly read minds here. If you want to be more discreet we can try texting. >]

[daimeinashi]

[Sai was serious when he said he wasn't like other humans.

Also ugh texting in person, no thank you. He doesn't even like texting on the network]

It matters little to me. However, you wished to meet in person because you did not wish to discuss what we were speaking of publicly, correct?

[Sai quickly scans the surroundings, considering.]

I have found the rooftops to frequently be a place which affords a relative degree of privacy. Is that acceptable?

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[< That is correct. >

He follows Sai's gaze to the rooftops, nodding his head in agreement.

< It's better than staying here. Let's go. >]

[daimeinashi]

Will you be able to get to the roof on your own, or will you require assistance?

[thelimitdoesnotexist]

[< I can make it just fine. >

He rises off the ground, quickly flying to the roof.]

[daimeinashi]

[Sai doesn't answer, merely follows after him. He can't fly, but he does jump impressively, making it to the roof in just a couple bounds.]
