[ While trying to post to the network, Terra was not only confused by how to do that, but the weird little creature that was attaching itself to him. He wasn’t particularly used to things like this, given his reactions to 626 in his own world… Though at least being somewhere different wasn’t too daunting. Frowning, though, he looked a little disgruntled as the thing was making noises at him. He was just heading out of Destiny Islands so he wasn't sure how he ended up here... ]

So...This. Whatever it is. It keeps trying to crawl up my leg. What...do I do with it? We didn’t have things like this at home. [ a pause as he thinks ]

It doesn’t look like a dog, or anything I’m used to at all. I suppose it’s not an unversed because it doesn’t seem to be attacking me.

[ Another pause and a puzzled look as Terra reaches out to it slowly to pet it. It’s not shown much, but he kind of smiles. ] I suppose it’s not so bad. [ Suddenly he realizes something, and frowns again ]

…What do even I feed it? Also, is there anyone in this world that can tell me where to get around? Or possibly out? I'm in a little bit of a hurry.

I suppose I should be off...and I should figure out more about this guy. Turtwig is what you called it right?

[ He's not too good with remembering these things... ]

[ex_aeroga402]

Uh-huh, that's right. The machine we're talking through will give you more information on it too.

[He'll help his big bro as much as he can]

[earthshattering]

Oh! How do I go about doing that?

[ obviously hanging up eventually is probably involved? Terra's not too good with technology... ]

[ex_aeroga402]

You point it at Turtwig and press that round button on the left side of the screen. Should pop it right up, and tell you whether you've got a boy or a girl.

[Ven had to be told a good number of times too. No worries big bro]

[earthshattering]

Good to know. I'll try to remember that. [ A nod as he kind of jostles it around to look at it's make up ]

[ex_aeroga402]

Can name them too of course. I had an Eevee to start with, she's grown up now.

[earthshattering]

Oh...Well I'm not too good with naming things, so I think I'll call it Turtwig.

[ He draws a blank ]

An Eevee?

[ex_aeroga402]

Uh-huh, they're like little brown foxes with rabbit ears.

[And he's probably not helping with such an image]

I named her Princess, because she reminded me of Aqua a bit.

[Clearly, Aqua is their princess]

[earthshattering]

[ Terra has a moment that he looks a little guarded; Aqua was a sore subject, only because he did a lot of mess up and felt guilty. Recovering quickly, he smiled ]

That's a good name for it, especially if you thought of Aqua.

[ex_aeroga402]

[He's not the only one, but Ven's trying to push past it]

I think you'll see why when you meet her.

[earthshattering]

[ As is Terra... ]

I'm sure I will. So is this about a three day trip...one of your friends told me.

[ex_aeroga402]

Yeah, it's a few days. I'm glad they're helping you out too.

[earthshattering]

Well, anyone who you are friends with I know I can trust.

[ex_aeroga402]

I've got some pretty great friends.

[Like big bro!]

[earthshattering]

[ thought Terra thinks he's been a pretty crappy one, actually....]

You do have good friends. Definitely because you're a good friend yourself.

[ex_aeroga402]

Helps that I got two of the best ones out there to start with.

[Oh big bro, he'll always think you're the greatest]

[earthshattering]

[ A smile, but it's a little awkward. It's going to take Terra a little time to forgive himself for being such a jerk to them ]

Y...Yeah. I'm sure that helps.

[ex_aeroga402]

[Gonna adore you until you believe him, big bro. And well after that!]

I get the feeling you don't believe me.

[earthshattering]

[ ERK....He got caught ]

No...It's not that, I just haven't been a very good example lately.

[ex_aeroga402]

I've had a whole four years of examples from you, Terra. You taught me a lot of things, and looked out for me, and let me sleep in your bed when I had nightmares...all sorts of things.

[Best big bro. Best]

[earthshattering]

[ Terra, even though he's still feeling a little guilty, does smile at that ]

Yeah, and you hogged all the blankets.

[ He's teasing, just because he really does miss those times with Ven ]

[ex_aeroga402]

Oh, yeah... [He has to look a bit sheepish at that] Sorry about that.

[earthshattering]

Don't worry about it, I was teasing.

[ The smile stays on his lips ]

Plus, I'm not much of a blanket person anyway.

[ex_aeroga402]

Really, you're not?

[He never knew this about his big bro...]

[earthshattering]

It gets kind of hot, for me.
