VIDEO..?
[Look who it is, it's Emporio! He's doing a pretty spectacular job at manifesting a visual of himself, little cubone (minus helmet) and all, but more importantly, a visual of...
...Emporio what are you doing.
Imagine if you will, a floorplan. Now imagine it just sort of got...Extruded. Made '3d' but it's only made of paper, and it's still clearly been drawn on with graphite or charcoal or something.
That's about what the visual of what he's showing is, and he appears quite focused on the matter!]
I think I've almost got this finished..but I wanted to ask everyone for advice as well.
I guess, when someone in the Lum Guild ranks high enough, Polteageist starts looking for somewhere in the town they can handle more construction? Because at the end of the year, they told me to come up with a design for 'the perfect house' for me to live in.
[He pauses, considering this.] ...I kind of get the impression he's used to Pokemon taking a while on this. I guess when you're used to just building a nest in the wild, the idea of a house is kind of...weird?
It is a pretty human thing to do... [Emporio admits, walking about.]
A-anyway, I had some help from others here, but this is I think what I like for the final one?
[The floorplan is as follows; whatever lot of land Emporio was offered, it's built into a hill, so Emporio's capitalized on that. The entry is at the top of the hill; and that floor is also where a living-dining area, a simple but still rather nice kitchen (thanks for the ideas Sanji), a study, and even a balcony, can be found. Downstairs however, in the 'basement', and Emporio has a simple washroom, a somewhat large bedroom that has a divider screen in it...
...And one bonus room to fill the gap that should have been there to offer support to the rest of the house. It's not got a normal door (which is saying something since the projected idea involves walking around paper cut-outs). If anything, Emporio seems to just. No-clip through the paper into it.
But this room is different.
Because this room has a much clearer idea, in what it looks like.]
I...I don't know if it'll turn out to be too much...I guess I'll find out when I show Polteageist, b-but..!
...It. It was the room I grew up in, so...
...Emporio what are you doing.

...It. It was the room I grew up in, so...

[Cheeky, but true.] None of you are going to be seeing how I build the room.
[He's used to dealing with prisoners and felons. So, he's not especially worried at the moment.
And he does raise a brow.] And it's still my room.
...I know a lot of the Pokemon here forget where I came from. ...Even Polteageist does sometimes, [And isn't that fascinating?] ...but a ghost room is a memory of a place, and now that ghost isn't even here anymore.
It's the place that kept me safe since I was born, and if Polteageist doesn't think it's a bad idea, I'm going to build it.
[Ahh, but that aside!] ...I'm kind of surprised you're this worried though... ...Not a lot of new people here really seem to think about that to start, and I don't think I've seen anyone who was a Stantler until now...
[And a local Stantler, he knows, wouldn't use the word 'elk'.]

[ Internally, the Zorua is chuckling. But he's not showing any signs he is one right now. ]
...Besides. Part of this plane seems to want us to think about what we were. Why else would it turn us into creatures? [ Alas, Oko was not in Bloomburrow, or he'd have more. Insight. ] An odd property, but one that keeps us from being killed on sight. It's just curious that you want to reclaim that part of yourself so freely.
no subject
[Hmm. He ponders this...he's clearly trying to think seriously about it- he doesn't want to be suspicious, but that doesn't mean he's going to take everything at face value now, but. Mm. Well.] No, that actually makes some sense if you've been in the tunnels most of the time...
Snow isn't really good for my skin. I've mostly stuck to helping at the Clinic, or the Archives. [And, admittedly, Dr. Denne has also insisted on it, but...mm.
Anyway. A shrug.] I don't know that I'd call it reclaiming humanity exactly? The room...wasn't what made anyone human. Even if humans made the original room, the ghost room was made by the earth. The planet remembers what was on it- that's what it means for a ghost room to exist.
...Obviously, I can't recreate the ghost properties of it... [Which, is a shame.] ...But it'll at least look like it did. The books wouldn't be here though I guess... ...really, a lot of this stuff wouldn't, without being recreated.
[Ah, that aside, he does blink upward at the Stantler.]
...That said, shouldn't a better question be why people are being dropped into places like volcanic tunnels, or the ocean? It's kind of miraculous that we survived to reach town at all.
no subject
As for his final point, Oko pauses, nodding to himself. Giving a smirk. ]
...Well, for those of you who are stranded, I imagine you're not directing where you go. [ He's not actually going to clarify what he means by this. ] I hadn't expected to appear where I did, on account of the crippling pain.
no subject
[Oof, the past tense.
Ah well. Emporio nods...and then frowns.] Right. ...I was....kind of surprised about that part, but not really in the way most were I think? ...A lot of the first part was how it felt when the world reset the first time after all...
[boy what]
So you could travel more freely then? Neat! You must have seen all kinds of places then... ...uh...I guess that also makes it worse that you were pulled here to begin with though huh...
