peridork | SHITTY BABY IN THE WOODS | OPEN 4th WALL

[ The first and most noticeable thing about the feed is that Peridot is very obviously not human once more. The face that's visible on-screen is back to its usual lime green, and her hair is whipped up into a very un-natural and, frankly, pretty ridiculous looking shape. She also looks terrified, but that's not really unusual in the slightest, especially not to those who already know her.

The camera shakes as she readjusts it. When Peridot speaks up it's at a low, frantic hiss, and in just about every aspect the quality of the video posted makes her look and sound like a horror movie character recording a frantic farewell message for posterity, before the murderer inevitably catches up with her. The camera is angled up from below eye-level, and the light from her Pokegear casts an eerie glow on her face. ]

So I was just minding my own business, trying to take care of my stupid new organic body by walking to use the "bathroom" [ air quotes ] or whatever, when everything got all weird and slow-- Now I'm in some random forest, and apparently time has inexplicably skipped forward by about 3 hours!?!?

[ Ridiculous. That's what this is. She just got here a week ago, and is in no way prepared to deal with this level of nonsense? Like, the giant super powered monsters were already bad enough without all this reality glitching bullshit happening around her.

The look in her eyes when she continues speaking is pleading. Desperate. ]

I'm going to level with whoever's receiving this transmission out there: It's cold, and getting dark, I don't know how to get back to Goldenrod City from here, and worst of all there are thousands of these hideous monster things crawling around everywhere in here and they won't leave me alone! [ Oh god. It kind of looks like she's about to cry. ] Don't let me die out here!

[ As Peridot says all this she has yet to notice the weedle that is currently making itself comfortable atop her ridiculous hairdo, but it sure is visible on camera.

...It might be kinder to just leave her in the dark on that detail. ]

[She probably was expecting a human response to her distress call. Unfortunately for her Twilight's gotten her regular body back for the moment, so here's a talking pony.]

Miss, please do not panic.

... Yes I realize that's a difficult request to follow given your current situation. But what you are experiencing is a semi-regular event in this world. The fabric of reality kind of goes haywire for a little bit.

As for returning to civilization... it looks to me like you're probably in Ilex Forest. The nearest population centers are Pewter City and Viridian City, to the North and South. Your gear should include a compass.

[As for the weedle... best to hope it just leaves on its own.]

...Are you trying to say you're some kind of robot? Every body is organic.

[Envy's not sure how he wound up in the middle of the forest either, but unlike Peridot, he's not at all worried. He's been through this weekend rodeo so many times before that he just rolls with everything that comes his way.]

[Including small, hysterical green women.]

[It's difficult to miss Peridot with all the noise she's making, and he really can't help being curious enough to investigate. He also can't help looking really amused as he walks up behind her because oh my god.]

[He does stop a few feet away, one hand on his hip casually, because she's clearly panicking and he doesn't know what she is. While he'd think it was funny if he got her to jump, it would be less funny if she attacked him or something.]

Hey, you're not gonna die. At least, you won't if all the yelling doesn't attract Bloobers.

[Okay he couldn't help that either sorry Peridot.]

...

[Xion's not entirely sure what she's looking at, it's a person in distress--which is bad--but her appearance is like...]

There's a bug on your head.
