My my, I was prepared for a few more surprises, but this certainly wasn't what I had in mind! Unlike many of you, I'm not at all used to being caught off guard.

[For all his confessed surprise, Gil looks right at home seated at a table in a tech-y cafe in Crystalden, device propped up against the ketchup bottle. He stirs his milkshake, then stops to take a sip. There's a lot on his mind at the moment, there's no denying that; beneath the calm, lazy enjoyment, he's taking in his surroundings and turning them over in the back of his mind.]

It's too bad my knowledge doesn't extend to the queen or her funny little kingdom - I guess that's all part of the game, though, isn't it? It wouldn't be much fun if they let someone in who already knew the ending.

[Prying his gaze away from a girl on the other side of the cafe, he turns back to the device and gives a bright, easy smile]

I have other things I could be doing, but this isn't a poor distraction either. You can call me Gil -- I'm looking forward to playing with all of you!

A game?

[It's a question, that's obvious. But it's delivered much like a statement, with no inflection or particular sense of curiosity. His too-pretty face is utterly empty. It seems at if he could be pleased, or angry, or just not care at all -- it's impossible to read.]

That's one way of thinking about it.

[Kirei is so confused right now. He hadn't been planning on responding to people in general at this point, but this...] I know you have a taste for games.

But what have you done to yourself?

This doesn't seem like a game to me. Aren't games supposed to be fun?

[Cheren, nothing really seems like a game to you. Shh.]

... but it's nice to meet you. I'm Cheren, the Aspertia City Gym Leader, from Unova.

[a young - well, teenage - boy pops up on the screen, but he doesn't say anything; instead there's a text message soon after.]

Do you think this is a game?

[judging by his expression, it's an honest question, not condescending at all. rion's settling in - he's still not sure WHY he's here, but how can other people take it so lightly?]

Game?! This seems like the furthest thing from it!

[ex_shadowstep567]

You sound like a sadist.

[ Slowly: ]

You do not sound very concerned. Does this "game" have no rules?

[LITTLE ADORABLE BOY. Saber feels like there's more to this than meets the eye, but her hormones the boy's innocent look and amiable attitude are preventing her from exercising caution.]

Umu! As do I with all my heart, young Gil! Much like yourself, I've little else to do back in my world, so I do not mind a bit of a diversion for entertainment.

I suppose it's only appropriate that I reciprocate your introduction... You may call me Saber! It is a pleasure to meet you.

[disenfranchised]

[ HEY YOU LITTLE PUNK he remembers what you did. ]

Well, well, well.
We meet again.

You're a bit shorter than I'm used to, but I think I'll manage. [ he doesn't care if you're a little kindergarten brat, it won't stop him from wanting to kick your ass. ]
