[ Sabrina is sat down on a couch, standard furnishings that come with all the Heropa townhouses. Her government-issues device is floating far enough away from her that it has to be held up by some sort of powers, it would definitely explain the green glow around the edges of the frame. She sits, cross-armed and cross-legged, her file on the couch cushion next to her, and...a yellow humanoid creature making vaguely threatening gestures at a man in deep sleep on the carpet. You might recognize the man as Itsuki, friendly neighborhood flesh-eating abomination.
She turns to face the naughty Hypno, saying nothing, but somehow convincing him to quit being a brat anyway. He stomps off, and she faces the camera again. She's gone over the literature several times, and found the beginner's guide from pouring over the network on her own, but still, it seems like it's customary to introduce yourself. It would be best to be polite while she gains her bearings, she thinks. ]
Hello. My name is Sabrina, I'm from the Kanto region. I was a Pokemon gym leader there, though it appears that holds no relevance or prestige in this world. [ Which bothers her, a lot, given how hard she worked to get that far. Back to square one, in an unfamiliar world, it seems. ]
Who are the leaders in this 'imPort' community? [ She says the word like a woman trying to be more sure of herself than she really is, she hasn't been here long enough to take that on as an identity, no matter how quick the crowds of photographers and fans are to label her as such. ] Officially and otherwise. I would like to meet them, get a better idea of how this works in practice, beyond the time-and-space meddling that's going on.

He's been nothing but pleasant. Red and Blue trust him enough to live here, let their Pokemon lounge around his house unattended. She can just trust that they have more context. Time's passed. She has more than enough control over herself to stay rational. Sabrina's expression is not thrilled, but calm. Interesting...she'll have to ask him more about it later. ]
If Red knows that, and still speaks highly of you, that's enough for me.

[he's still not sure what the right reaction to this is. part of him is even slightly bitter that no one seems to be from the timeline where maxie had almost ended the world, which is... confusing more than anything. thinking of it makes his heart hurt, of course the stupid old bastard could finally understand his feelings on something and was ported out.]
If it helps... I have no illusions about the severity of my crimes-- I know what I did was beyond forgiveness.
[he exhales.]
I've been here for over a year and this might not be the world I hurt in my arrogance, but it's still... [well, there WAS the relic. he's uncertain.] ... It's an unexpected extra chance regardless.

[ By which she means, it's chill. Just don't do it again. ]
no subject
[which... goes without saying.]
Sorry. For what I said earlier.
no subject
Why do my powers make you uncomfortable?
no subject
[there was also the charles clone, but this was the time that fucked with him more, honestly.]
I know you would never do the same, but... [sighe] the last voice in my head made me kill people, so I'm over it.
no subject
I'm sorry that happened to you. It sounds terrible.
[ She looks down at her mug, face fallen. January? Surely he's heard the same thing over and over, but there isn't much else for her to say. To reach out with her mind would be inappropriate, her hands even moreso. It's a reasonable excuse, for now. ]
But...if this world is crazy enough to do that, and any number of other disasters, we need to be a team. Eventually, you'll need to trust me to use my powers responsibly.

[and still is, given he remembers everything that went down during it. six months isn't enough for him to come close to coming to terms with it, and a good 90% of the reason why he doesn't sleep at night anymore is because-- well, the same reason anyone who isn't a sociopath would have problems with remembering killing people they care about.
archie hates that he isn't good or strong enough to move on the way it feels like people want him to, but it's no surprise to him that he turned out to be so pathetic in the face of something horrific again.]
I do trust you. If it was so bad that I didn't trust you to we wouldn't be talking right now. [he shakes his head, frustrated at himself for messing this up.] It's a kneejerk reaction I wish I hadn't had.
[he looks over to woobat and crobat playing, alakazam monching on the poffin...]
Generally, you bein' here is only a good thing. No matter what.
no subject
He's right. They'll be fine. ]
We'll work on it. Thanks, Archie.
