[When the screen flickers on the sight of a red-headed girl with equally striking red eyes will be seen on the screen. She seems dumbfounded by the tablet before her as she stares at it with something akin to curiosity. When she realizes what shes supposed to do she snaps her attention back to the camera.] Oh..
Hello..? Uhm..I just arrived to this place a day ago..It's..[She struggles to come up with a word, face scrunched up in what looks like annoyance.] It's a little bothersome.
Is anyone having problems getting used to this environment?

I was wondering..If anyone is able to recognize these three names;
Aladdin
Alibaba
Hakuryuu
They are very important friends to me and I just want to know if they are okay. Thank you.
action!?
[omg HILBERT PLS.
Hakuryuu is going to gut you.] See you soon. [She sends the other another look before eventually turning off the video function.]action!!!
Hakuryuu has to learn about this first.Alright, his first date with a girl here! Hilbert is absolutely jolly as he checks to make sure he's got everything and sets off upstairs.Even Eeks is in a good mood and doesn't mind waiting in its ball. But yeah, Hilbert will be very careful not to miss Morgiana's door and k n o c k cheerfully!
He is so excited. So so excited. Eee.]
Re: action!!!
O-Oh..He got here pretty fast..[Maybe he lived more closer to her than she thought? With a twist of the doorknob she opened it up and was face to face with the excited face of Hilbert. She leaned back, giving him a nod in greeting.] H-Hello..[She murmured quietly. Her fingers idly dug into the ends of her simple beige dress, bare feet making their way out the door to which she closed behind her.] Let's go?
no subject
he's only a head taller than her roughly anyway it's cool]Your hair's a really pretty red, Morgiana, especially off video. It kind of reminds me of what we call the Charizard Bridge between Driftveil and Nimbasa back home. Oh, Charizards are these big red dragons that are really strong and come from Kanto, a faraway region. They're amazing.
no subject
So a charizard is something one can catch? Have you ever tried to get one yourself?[She pretty much caught on with how stuff in his world worked to an extent. Morgiana pondered on the idea of how it would be to have a pokemon herself. She would want one that would be strong, just like her. And have agility to jump super high.]
no subject
I haven't. Charizard are only sights in Unova, though there's a really famous one that belongs to a legendary Trainer in Kanto. That guy's name is Red and he took down a huge organization just because he happened to be in the right place at the right time. [He shrugs. Lucky guy, but Hilbert was chosen.] You actually have to have a Charmander first, which is kind of like the baby form of the Charizard, and as you battle it evolves. A Charmander's rare too, so rare that you can only get them as a Pokémon a beginner Trainer can get in Kanto - a starter Pokémon. There's... Ah, there's at least fifteen that I know of from my Pokédex... which I actually don't have with me. Guess I left it back home. You'd be a good fit for a Charizard though... I think a Mienshao from my region would definitely fit you more.
[history lesson plus trivia equals ???]

In my world, we have certain people that are called 'Magi' They are very important. They have the power to pick a 'candidate' on who will be king of the country. [Sort of like a president.] I'm not very good at explaining the origins of how Magi's came to be. Aladdin could probably tell you more than I could. [Her eyes trail up to stare at the gloomy sky her face thoughtful.] I've been in a few battles before. Some were life and death situations. [The way she said it was as calm as one could be, eyes glancing back over at Hilbert.] Are you curious? [Surely a boy his age would want to know all about her fights and how they played out.]
no subject
Of course! You're really interesting, Morgiana, I never would have thought before I met you that I'd be hearing any of this. Just don't force yourself if it gets too painful. [Because he noticed she was hesitant to talk about something earlier, see. He'll listen intently to all she has to say, genuinely curious about the strong girl.]
no subject
[As she walked her feet would occasionally brush aside clumps of rocks, hands now swaying freely at her sides.] The old man offered another route but that would of made the journey more longer. That night when they all fell asleep I snuck away and went to the camp where the thieves were staying and I ordered them to leave unless they wanted to be forced out, because they were blocking the way. They refused - And..I beat them up. The next thing I know I was clawed by a hawk that had poison on the tips of it's claws and I was knocked unconscious. It belonged to a slave trader that I had seen earlier on my travels. [Her fists curled into fists as she spoke. Usually just thinking about the man brought her anger but she felt none of it anymore.] When I woke up, I was chained again. But these chains were specifically made for Fanalis. They were supposed to be unbreakable. I remember staying in that cell for 5 days with a young girl named Nadja and one day she got really feverish.
The slave trader said that she was no good to him and so he went to dispose of her. Feed her to a pack of hyenas. All I remember was feeling angry and useless because I still couldn't get out of my shackles but..I heard my benefactors voice. He told me I was free and I wasn't bound anymore. [Her eyes trailed to stare at the leg ornaments on her, lips pursed.] I eventually broke out of my chains and saved Nadja. The slave trader thought he could subdue me by releasing a pack of big Siberian tigers on me but those were quickly defeated as well. It felt wonderful to free all the slaves and return the young girl back to her parents. [Realizing how much she talked she turned a small red in the face and cleared her throat, eyes catching the sight of a building up ahead.] Is that the restaurant?
no subject
Hilbert glances at the building she's asking about and nods.]
That's it. [But the story.] It must've been amazing to break out of something that they said you couldn't, and I bet that trader was surprised too. People like that deserve to be shocked. You're really something else, Morgiana, I mean it. I don't think I've ever met someone who came close to that! How big were these tigers, huh? I've never seen one before, not even in circuses and stuff.
no subject
It was..[She gives a nod and thinks about it for a second.] Uhm..I suppose it would have to be a bit more bigger than a Charizard. [However big those things were anyways.] I didn't really have to do much for the hyenas. I kind of scared them away with my battle cry. [Her arms latched behind her back again as she let her eyes roam the design of the restaurant as they got closer to it. It looked a little run-down but she could see people walking inside and some eating.] Maybe once we finish eating I can show you an example of how it works.
no subject
I'd like to see that! And hear your other battles, too. I'd tell you mine but they'd need some explaining first, and they don't sound half as exciting as yours. And I guess it's more of an "in the moment" thing that yours were.
[The ones he can tell, anyway. The ones he can't tell would probably entertain her greatly. But she needs to see his map first it's why they came out here, after all. After they sit down and stuff.]
no subject
Ah..water please. [Once the waitress left them alone to figure out what to eat, she opened up the plastic card and let her eyes roam the food items.] Most of these foods I've never even heard of before. Steak..? Pizza? Uhmm. [She gave Hilbert a look as if saying 'please help me pick' and then placed the menu down.] Have you eaten here before?
no subject
I haven't! But a girl like you'd definitely like steak. [She seems particularly meaty. Plus, she's strong, so her tribe's got to eat a lot of protein right? Right.]
Most of this stuff is what you'd find in any restaurant back in Unova, so I'll help you out. [Let him point out with his menu.] Pizza is really good and is kind of an edible bread plate with sauce, cheese, meat, and anything else you want on it! Steak and hamburgers are both made of cows, except steak is like one big piece and hamburgers are ground meat and are on a sandwich. Both are equally delicious. There's salads too, if you'd be more comfortable eating something leafy, but I'd seriously suggest steak.
[Because steak is delicious and he will be getting one too. Maybe it'll be bigger since the animals here are really weird! That's exciting!]
no subject
I'll have the steak then. [Hilbert was definitely right. She was more of a meat type girl. Shifting on the booth her feet would unconsciously brush against his. Whether she realized what she was doing she choose to not to comment on it. This booth is small okay.] Oh..there she is. [The waitress came back with a smile and a small notepad. When she asked what they wanted to order she glanced over at Hilbert for a split second and then glanced up at the other female.] A steak please.
no subject
Brush aside, yesss he knew it. He grins at Morgiana, then at the waitress.]
For me, too! And some butter, please? [To Morgiana:] Butter's always on steaks in Unova and it tastes darn good, so I figure it should apply here too.
[And only after the waitress leaves will he be digging through his pack to take out a folded up piece of paper, waving it slightly. She should be able to figure out what it is.]
no subject
[At the slight nudge back to her foot she gives Hilbert a brief confused look. I wonder what that was about.. Taking note of the map, she shifts to slide over to the others side, shoulder bumping against his. Gently she takes the map from his hands, smooths it out on the table and let's her eyes roam it with curiosity.] Wow its big.. [She let her finger trace some shapes on the paper as she leaned in more, strands of vibrant red hair fluttering over her shoulders and face from her movements.] We really don't have a map for my world.
no subject
shh I just wanted to show off my work. Hilbert watches her lean over it, then reaches his hand over and taps a little town at the bottom right of the map.]That's my hometown, right there. Nuvema Town's only special attribute is that it's got the lab there - and it's now the home of the Unova Champion! [Another thing he'd have to explain, but he doesn't mind.] Why don't you really have a map for your world? Is it that big?
no subject
I'm sure there are maps from our world somewhere..but I haven't seen one yet. So that could be it. [She gently folded the map and sets it aside before scooting to give Hilbert some space. Her eyes stared up at the ceiling as she lost herself in thought - So much that she barely registered that the young waitress came back to their table with their food until the sound of plates hitting the table broke her from her daze.] Oh..Thank you. [She gives a nod and tugs her plate a little closer, staring at the steaming piece of meat. Sure shes has meat before back at home but it never looked anything like this. She clumsily grabbed at her fork and knife but she was unsure of how to go about eating it.] How do you..? [She motioned to her steak with a small embarrassed look on her face as she glances up at Hilbert.]
I'm sorry I am afraid I have been missing tags all over the place
Okay, personally I just cut big pieces like this... [Taking his fork and knife, he cuts a chunk off and waves it.] But it's all to your own pace. There's no special way to eating something like this, unlike ice cream or Oreo cookies.
[Hilbert demonstrates, putting the fork in his mouth and taking the piece of steak. Nice and clean. He cuts a slightly smaller piece off of Morgiana's steak and holds out it out to her, meat towards her. Eating off of someone else's fork isn't a crime. Hopefully.]
it's okay!! don't worry about it u vu
[Figuring she could try it herself she takes the fork out of the male's hands along with the knife as she stares down at her food. After successfully cutting a piece (although its kind of sloppy) she sends Hilbert a small smile.] Thanks. You know for..teaching me this. And bringing me here. I'm having fun. [As she took a small sip of her water and begins to eat her food, she let her eyes stare out into the window situated above their heads. The sky was dark and gloomy as ever and that kind of thing would of depressed anyone but not Morgiana. Knowing her friend was here with her made everything a bit better.]
no subject
It's no problem. I like making friends. And I'm glad you're having fun, because I am too. I don't get to go out with people too often.
[That's going to change in the future, now that he's not actively training his Pokémon to leave his home region and just has Eeks to worry about, but right now is Morgiana time and also eating. This steak really is good.]</small<
no subject
You never have much time either right? Because of your..pokemon thing? [Morgiana was still curious to see one up close. She was hopeful that it happened once they finished eating their food. Returning back to her plate she cuts up another piece and promptly stuffs it in her mouth to chew.]
no subject
There's a ton of training involved with honing a Pokémon's skill. Plus the routes are kind of empty, except for the Trainers who train there. All the excitement's in the towns and cities. And I don't tend to really hang around those too much except if there's something to do.
[He shrugs. Surprisingly, Hilbert isn't that good with crowds and the like. He prefers one-on-ones and being around tons of people wears him out. Not that he'd say this, or try to make it show, because people generally though of extroverts as more friendly and introverts more anti-social.
It's tough keeping appearances but he's been doing this for years!]no subject
[With a small sigh she leans back to sip at her drink, fingers letting the fork clatter against the plate.] Thank you for the meal. [She inclines her head in a bow before returning her gaze back to Hilbert.] After this do you think you can..show me your pokemon? I really want to see it.
