[The video opens on America's legs. He's rolled up his pant legs and is sitting at the edge of the lake on Route 30, dangling his feet in the water. A sleeping hoppip rests on his knees.]
I'm kind of worried about Pinky you guys. [He turns the 'gear around to focus on his face, with Liberty on his shoulder as usual.] She's level 5 already and she still can't do any attacks. D'you think it's cause it's so hot maybe? Like, is she wilting or something? I keep givin' her berries and makin' sure she has enough water an' all. She seems happy and everything, I mean... but she just sorta flops around. Like a magikarp.
...Maybe she'll evolve into something really cool? But man, she's so cute. [He turns the camera to show the hoppip again, reaching down to skritch the base of her leaves.] I kinda don't want her ending up some freaky monster thing.

Sometimes I just know things. And you obviously care about her an awful lot. A lot more than someone who didn't care about being a good trainer. And she obviously cares about you, too, cause she looks so happy, so she must think you're a good trainer, too.

[She is openly thrilled to have understood that reference.
And yes, folks, that means the only parts of the TMNT franchise that have survived the next three thousand years are the live action movies.]

eek wrong journal
What kinda shows are you into nowadays?
What? I saw nothing~
But I did see a Nightsider soap opera on a drift, once. I think it was called 'As the Pond Scum Grows.' Well, that's what it translates to. It sounded better in the original.

You're from SPACE?
no subject
Uhhuh? Most people are anymore.
Oh! You're from Earth, aren't you? I'm meeting so many people from Earth here, Harper would be so jealous, if he knew, I bet.
no subject
Yeah, I'm America! My friend's an alien though-- his name's Tony, he's awesome. He's not pretty like you though, he's just gray.
no subject
I'm Trance. Isn't America a place, too?
And there are lots of gray aliens. And some green ones. Actually, probably more green ones than gray ones. Blue, too. And furry ones in all kinds of colors.
no subject
Yeah, Tony told me there's all different kinds of aliens, only I've never met any others before. And yeah it's the greatest country on earth!

Harper's from Boston. Was that in America?

Then you'd get right along with him. Even if it's not the same kind of city anymore. I bet your Boston is really pretty.

Does everyone really drive Harley Davidson motorcycles, though?

[And there are details in there somewhere, but they're sad. Better to focus on the fixing part!]
no subject
But... you said America's still around... right?
no subject
Well, the... the continent's still there, and some of the cities. And people still live there, at least mostly...
