[A teenager in a blue ball cap and school uniform pops up on the tiny screen, grinning smugly...yet also dumbly. He's got to be dreaming. All of this feels just like a role playing game, like in the Feudal Fantasy series! Or maybe Shade of the Giants? Whatever it is, Junpei's kind of excited and less worried about why and how he arrived here.]

Man, this is so cool! It's like a communicator watch from Featherman... [But maybe a little...dainty-looking. He's kind of afraid he'll break it on accident.]

Anybody hearing me out there? I'm ready to start restoring some color and life to things!

Wait, this place has TV, but no broadcast?

[INCONCEIVABLE! To Junpei, at least.]

[realmenknitplushies]

Yeah. There's DVDs and games 'n all that, but no actual TV channels.

[Not even midnight ones.]

[hasleveledup]

Oh man, that's a relief. At least they have games...but no cable or anything? That's kind of odd.

[realmenknitplushies]

...it is, isn't it? Huh. Dunno if they used to have 'em and the war screwed it up, or if they only started getting TV when we started showing up...

[hasleveledup]

If that's the case, then whoever made the tv should get bookin' on recreating cable! If I have to slay a hundred monsters to get the gold to make it happen, I will!

[TV is important.]

[realmenknitplushies]

[Junpei, you have no idea.]

Uh, dude? This isn't a video game itself.

[hasleveledup]

Yeah, I know. It's just a dream. I'll wake up in the morning...and everything will go back to how it was. [He softens at the end, a little disappointment in his voice. It's got to happen eventually, but he likes a little excitement, and most of all, to feel needed.]

[realmenknitplushies]

Wha-? This isn't a dream! Seriously, man. This is actually happening.
