PSL with Outbounds

Emmet was trying to get used to this- the past (and supposedly the time he came from.) And nothing felt right. He didn't know what he was doing, the oven wouldn't listen to the simplest of commands (turn off in 20 minutes), the microwave had few fail safes, everything had 2000 buttons and not even the clock would set itself.

It was all a hassle!

The Sneasels were playing on the cat-tree in the room Emmet had so gracefully lent him, the Hisuian Female knocking the Johtotian male off a perch to claim as her own. Crobat was hanging in the closet happily dozing, and Porygon- he thinks, might have found a part of the infomation network that was for Perverts because for the past 15 minutes it had been talking about 'Hot MILFs wanting Doubles in YOUR area'.

He sighed, this was not the first nor the last time he would have to depend on the kindness of others, huh?

[ emmet did what he could, offering up as succinct and condensed a rundown of everything he could think of after ushering the time-traveling emmet in before having to head off to attend to the rest of his responsibilities, but not knowing what the future is like ...

(that's so weird. verrrrrry strange to think of, still. not unheard of, like he'd said before. but still, how did this emmet originally arrive at such a station, especially without any memory? the fading traces he'd found of a wormhole to ultra space only explains how he got here, little more.

... wasn't there something about those who've traveled through ultra space at least once? something that lingers on them, makes them noticeable to certain beings who might be looking for it? hmm. he'd felt it, at least, but...

he is emmet. he is not lunala. he is not solgaleo, or anywhere near any of their brethren. he's not familiar enough with the details of these kinds of things and what they might or might not mean for his liking. that— that is not winning. he will have to look into it more. maybe grimsley might know someone in alola?)

when he returns to the apartment later, he'll announce himself, before knocking on the guest room door and poking his head in. ]

How are you settling in? This is more jarring for you than the other. He is from closer to this time and you are not. And then there is the amnesia. Shame it probably doesn't increase your special defense, and it would not be ethical to test.

I admit this was all somewhat rushed. I am Emmet, and I apologize for that. But we can start to work on fixing that. Are there any questions you want to ask of me at this junction?

I am Em-

[He stops himself more out of habit. The others on the team would tease him about saying he was Emmet. Of course they knew he was Emmet- who else could he be?!]

Yup, what is the file extension for this network Porygon has found. It keeps talking about MILFs. Also is there an area where I can let the Sneasels play? I think the Lady is getting antsy.

[And then as if to prove that, the Hisuian female bats the Hisuian male off the perch.]

[ so he has the tic too, does he? that makes sense. they are both emmet. but if he's cutting himself off...

well, maybe that'll just be something to note for later. no need to bring it up just yet. ]

Ah. Porygon has discovered dubious ads for lonely singles. MILFs are mothers-I'd-like-to-fuck. Mostly will just lead to malware or spam. Sometimes identity theft and other theft of credentials. Please conduct appropriate safety checks. Do not open questionable links or run unvetted .bin, .exe, .bat ...

On second thought, simply do not execute any files that you find randomly online unless you can be certain of their authenticity. And that they are necessary. I do not want to find out if poorly coded programs can cause a Porygon of the future to evolve into Porygon-Z of the future. Probably not! But you never know.

As for the Sneasels! One of the upper floors of this complex is an open terrace available for residents. There should be room for them to play, though take care to not let them wander too far. If it is not enough then there are open parks for Pokemon not far from the complex.

[ beat. ]

One of those subspecies is extinct in this time, did you know?

You mean just anyone can access the network?

[Emmet said, sounding surprised, the Quasar team kept careful monitor of who accesses the network.]

In this time? Which one? Records of both are hard to find, and we have been working on seeing which environments they thrive in.

Edited 2025-01-14 02:26 (UTC)

Yyyeeeeeesss? Kind of? There are closed and open networks? There are private networks and servers that can only be accessed internally but most people have access to the general internet. Which means you will find a lot of different things there.

[ like hot milfs in your area. ]

The white ones. Hisuian, I think. Used to be found in the mountainous regions of Sinnoh but aren't anymore, 'least not that anyone knows. Don't know why. Maybe predation or competition from other species? [ maybe psychic types, since ... ] The black ones are still extant though. Fairly widespread. Belongs to the Johto dex but can be found all over, usually in caves or higher elevation or otherwise cold areas.

How amazing.

[He actually means this!]

In Lumiose only certain people have permissions because it is usually for communication between groups of people and tracking certain Iron Variant Pokemon.

[He personally wasn't a fan of the Iron Pokemon...]

Sinnohian and Johtoian, how amazing. The white one's fossils were found on that area, but the Black one was found in Kitakami, but we couldn't figure out what environment would need a Dark/Ice type, yup.

Hmm.

[ he's just going to come fully into the room now, looking thoughtful. ]

You know. This was for you to ask me about anything you need. I am sure it can't be easy being dropped off at an unfamiliar station. And we are derailing. But that is okay. There is something I wanted to talk about too.

[ dramatic gesture. sweep! point. ]

Tell me more about the Pokemon that exist in the future!

I am E-

[The stop. Again. This Emmet knew he was Emmet too! No need to announce it.]

I have food, I have clothes, I have a roof over my head, I have Pokemon care supplies, what else do I need until I am able to find work to pull my weight? This is not the first time I ended up somewhere with no idea how I got there, yup.

[Then, his expression changes a little. Almost un-readable.]

The Majority of Pokémon are the Iron-Variant Pokémon or Pokémon that were made in a lab- such as Porygon here. Pokémon such as the Sneasels and Crobat came from fossils. The Iron-Variant Pokémon are Pokémon that were built after the environment went crazy from what I heard, yup. To try and fulfill the roles of certain Pokémon from the distant past until fossils could be found, reintroduced into a safe environment, then as the Zygarde Team works on improving the city and nearby areas canm be reintroduced there.

Stop. Emergency brake. You are Emmet. You are allowed to say it. I am Emmet. I do not mind. This is the Truth. Another truth: you have basic necessities, yes. But you can still ask. Requests within reason can be made. You are a guest so I will not leave you to flounder if you are finding things blocking the tracks to adjustment.

[ rocks back on his feet, peering at the sneasels. his expression has also slightly blanked itself. not entirely! but a little. ]

Okay. Now we can resume. Maybe a notch four. No need to go to eight right away. Verrrrrry curious, these Iron-Variant Pokémon you mention.

Is that typical? For Pokémon to exist to fill specific roles. And are those roles ecological in any way? Or just practical?

I am Emmet, who else could I be?

[He has seen Ingo, but he can also see how different they look. In a way where a twin can point out which twin is who in a baby picture. He still has not meshed the idea of being a twin into his life though..]

You earn extras, yup. You do your job, you earn your keep- you do more- you earn more. Verrrry simple.

[Then when it came to the question on the Pokemon.]

Yes, when the environment started to die, you needed the creatures that performed those roles somehow to get things back going. There are some pollinators, there are those who process minerals and foodwaste into living dirt, stuff like that yup. Some have practical uses, like Iron Bundle, and Iron Serpent.

Edited 2025-01-14 20:17 (UTC)

Extra might have to be earned. This is true. But this is not the wastes. This is not the harsh future you speak of. What is a hardship in one time might not be in this one. So you should still ask. Worst that could happen is we say no.

[ why! does the future sound so terrible. what happened? what went wrong? ]

I am Emmet. I do not much like what I have heard so far. Not your fault. It is true that Pokémon can be helpful, yup. The combination of humans and Pokémon living and working together can attain greater heights than if we left each other alone.

But making them just to fill those purposes... I have not yet heard much, but it makes me sort of sad. That so much is gone. If our tracks are headed in a similar direction, I wonder if there is something we can do in this time to help make it not quite so bad. Do you know the reason why the environment started to die?

[Emmet nodded. He would have to think of something he would want, but so far the only thing he really has wanted was a few Joltiks. They were so cute, so sweet!]

The theory is that a long time ago, there was a war. The King at the time used a weapon that killed a lot of Pokémon.

[He remembered seeing a picture, the stones were the grave markers.]

But, for the longest, the fallout hadn't landed yet, and when it did- things started to die. Plant life first, followed by Pokémon who depended on trees and plants, it caused the oxygen to suddenly decline, the world warmed up causing bad weather- the weather becoming more and more unpredictable, humans tried to make survival cities- Lumiose the main one in Kalos. Underneath each one were seedbanks, shelters, Terariums base off an ancient Unovan concept.

... The terrarium of Blueberry Academy. Is an ancient Unovan concept.

[ like he knew the date and that it was the future but saying that so casually really puts it into perspective, huh. ]

[ imagine if i said this wasn't a mega evolution timeline so the ultimate weapon thing never happened huh.

nah just kidding. ]

... the Kalos war is ancient history even in this time. That is. A verrrrrry long time for the effects to show. But it also means our tracks aren't necessarily different. There's no way to tell.

[ ... ]

I think I will have to talk to Xerneas. Or Yveltal or Xygarde. Yup. That is the start of a plan.

You say it like you can call them up on a Holocaster.

[A moment to think.]

Well, in the time span of a planet, is it really that long ago?

No. No it is not. And maaaaaybe not on Xtransciever or Holocaster, but.

[ hey, is it a little warm in here or what? ]

There are other routes! I do not know where they are in your time. But in this one. There are ways. Limited access. Need to know only. Probably shouldn't be saying this to you. But ways regardless. It is a problem that started with their region so they should be informed of it regardless.

[ clean up your mess, kalos. or take pre-emptive measures if they can? look, he'll take whatever they can do to soften the potential effects. ]

In my time-

[Well future time.]

We are missing Zygarde cells. And cores. Unova, Galar and Alola teamed up to collect them and could only get to 10 percent. Aloys has found only 2 cells in Kalos. There was an attempt to clone the one from the GAU attempt, but- some things shouldn't be handled by man, yup. The idea was maybe if we could clone a bunch of cells- perhaps we could get further and Zygarde fixes it.

Then we found ancient documentation and using the GCAT documentation of Mew to see if something could be done-

[Again- failure.]

[Failure after failure after failure-]

Wait, wait! Safety check! Please reduce your speed a few notches. Right now, we are still here. Right now, we haven't disappeared yet. Right now, I could probably have a talk with Xerneas. This is the Truth. And maybe they will know how to contact the other two. Maybe they will figure out a way to progress. Here and then both.

Forewarned is forearmed. Ounce of prevention, pound of cure. How many more ways to say it should I repeat?

[ though admittedly, he's of exactly the wrong kind of domain to really be helping much with this, outside of convincing the kalos legends that it might be something worth looking into. just in case.

he's not as good with the whole reassuring thing as ingo is— but he's trying. is it better or worse that they're technically the same person, even if their circumstances are different? ]

But what were you trying to use documentation on Mew for? Repopulation?

[Emmet could call up Xerneas? Be like 'Hello God of Life, how are you? So, about an impending doomsday I heard about-?']

Figuring out if time is linear, shouldn't all of this have already happened anyways considering my memories are not being rewritten, or I blink out of existence? The self-consistency principle?

[There was a man with blue hair and brown eyes on the Y team who said talking about time was a family hobby. He liked how he could talk and Emmet would just listen.]

Yupyup! Because if we could get the origin of all Pokémon, then it should be much easier reviving fossils and making healthy lines again.

We are probably parallel tracks. Not quite the same. The other boss and I, we are different for sure. I know this for a fact.

[ 99.9% sure that the thing the other boss Did Not want to talk about was the light stone, anyway. he could feel it. and it was verrrrry unsettling. ]

As for you and I ... I am Emmet. I believe I know what the divergence there is too. So there is no need to worry about consistency paradoxes. And it is unlikely that predestination paradox should apply.

But even if it were, it's still worth trying. We can do no less. We have a responsibility to our passengers.

Edited 2025-01-15 03:37 (UTC)

[It takes Emmet a moment to mentally chew on this. Time to earn his keep.]

Then you can use me as a resource to whatever extent you like, yup. And Ponpon here.

[Ponpon spun its legs a little as Emmet patted it.]

WINNER. WINNER. TOCHIC DINNER. CLICK NOW TO MARRY THE PASIO PRINCE.

...I think I need to debug it.

Please do not think our hospitality is contingent on you having to help. We will not revoke it if you cannot, nope. But if you are willing, your cooperation is much apprrrreciated.

[ ... ]

Also. I did say earlier. Do not execute unverified code. A lot of sites like those hot MILFs, their only cargo is spam and dubious programming. May need to update Ponpon's firewalls, yup.

[ so many annoying viruses and PUPs. ]

I guess I know what I will be doing tonight, to the TMD for you.

[Emmet returns it to its Pokeball.]

It is only good for me to be a cooperating car on the tracks. If it means the future is better.

The future is usually more something for Ideals. But the Truth wants a kinder world too. You know.

[ even if so far, the truth cannot figure out much of a way to help outside of alerting certain others? sure, he can definitely affect the world's weather patterns if he tries— but the world warming up was apparently part of the problem in the first place. ]

It sounds like the future needs as much kindness as it can get.

Check safety ... Hmmmm. Answer this question. You will keep what I discuss with you next in confidence. Yes or no. Answer carefully. I am Emmet. I will know if you lie.

Yes.

[Emmet could read that as Truth, easily. It wasn't his place to say anything if something is confided in him. Besides, gossip is only good if you know all the true details.]

help not the hot milf adverts, porygon no

BUT EMMET LOVES DOUBLES. Why wouldn't porygon tell him about them?!
