[ There's a curious someone fiddling around with her PokéGear. She's a little surprised she managed to click it on, since she's never actually dealt with much technology. ]

Ah... um, hello. [ Her surprise is replaced by a reserved sort of smile. It's pretty brittle--she's not supposed to be here. So why is she, then? Carefully, she tucks a bit of hair behind her ear. A nervous habit, but it's not one she actually notices. ] I'm a little... confused. I'm not sure what's going on, and-- [ Wait. Is that... music in the background? It's faint, and she hadn't really noticed it until she was lost in thought. ] I think I might be hearing things, but... is there music playing somewhere?

[ She lets out a little sigh and gives the Minccino beside her a pat on the head. ] I think I just need a little bit of help, or... an explanation.

How many people with Kairi's voice are there?

[Ilya only realizes she responded to the post with that statement after a moment of confused staring. Once she does, she hastily tries to cover.]

Ah, never mind that. If you just arrived, it makes sense that you're confused. Did you listen to what the woman who calls herself "mom" told you before she pushed you out the door?

YES! That's music. After all you're just as sane as I am!

[Which there's something about him that doesn't look sane]

BUT THAT'S BESIDES THE POINT!

[As he continues on there's a creepy edge about his voice]

You're in a magical world that's filled with these creatures called - POKEMON!

[How even with his body?]

N--

[Okay pause for a second, reconsider. Calm down, Xion, Namine doesn't know who you are regardless, reacting with shouting would just scare her. Kairi clones are a skittish bunch.]

...Y-yeah, the music is...um, always playing.

[Pause for another second. Oh no, what does she say now??]

Namine...uh...what's the last thing you remember?

Hi ... Did you just get here?

_{[There's a lot of sympathy in the way she asks that. She remembers how disoriented she was.]}

[...At the sound of a familiar voice, Veronica turned her gaze towards the pokegear, suspecting Xion's face on it.

Startlingly, she was proven wrong.]

Y-yeah, like everyone else said. The music will never stop. But, you can learn to drown it out.

[Those first few nights are rough though.]

Uhh, hello there. You must be new.

[Having received Ilya's text, Riku is quick to respond. It's been ages since he saw Naminé, so it takes a few moments for him to formulate a respond. His brow's furrowed, and he's tapping his chin, searching for the right words, when--

BLAH!

A 5'3'' mass of purple gas leaps in front of the screen. Haunters are big, and this one's particularly loud... and tugging on his face, by the looks of it.]

Ugh, Phantom. Not now!

[Groaning, Riku steps out of the way of his wily ghost and shakes his head.]

Sorry about that. I doubt you needed that kind of a wake up call...

I'm not the only one hearing it?

Uh! I mean, you just woke up here too, then?

[Awwwwww, she's cute.]

Hey, it's okay. We've all been new here [...at least once...] and know how confusing it can be at first.

I can also try to answer any questions that you have.

Music kind of plays everywhere, yeah. It'll change all the time too. So you just kinda get used to it.

I don't even notice it anymore.

[No way. No way. There's another one. Not just Xion. This one has her face too. And her voice. At... least the hair is different? Again? She... really doesn't know how to feel about this. Someone in the future must really like her.]

Uh... hello?

[It seems as if a whole lot of people have answered the inevitable question of what this place is and what to do once you get here, so Chihiro decides to focus on something else. That something else being the fact that it's apparently 14 degrees out and calling for sleet all day today.]

If you haven't already decided to travel, you might want to go stay in the lab for a little while to keep warm...it is very cold outside right now.

[Hopefully she has someone that can come pick her up. If not, she's going to have a bit of a hard trip to Cherrygrove ahead.]
