[Looking a bit groggy still and trying to get some of her larger Pokemon to quit loving on her, Jane greets the feed with a little half wave, forcing a smile on her face. Her outfit looks a bit grayer than when she first went to sleep, but from how Jane is holding the camera, it's impossible to see much more than her shoulders.]
Good morning, or evening, or whatever time it is; I haven't even looked at a clock and my sense of time is all messed up anyway, but I just wanted to say that I am awake, and I hope no one was trying to contact me. Uh, can anyone catch me up to speed on things I may have missed while being.. asleep, I guess is what it was? Pretty lousy sleep if you ask me.
[Rubbing her face and sitting back a bit from the gear, Jane ends up leaning to let Ricky and Cid climb into her lap, both Vaporeon and Charmander trying to snuggle all up at the same time. Giving a weak smile, she gives the screen another little wave as she turns off the feed, then sends out a quick couple of texts.]
Jake, Dirk
We need to talk.
Immediately.
Please message me when you see this.
We've been in the game for four months.
[Putting that last sentence in should hurry them along, hopefully thinking it's less about.. well, the awkward orange and green elephant in all of their conversations lately, and more about what is going on in their session. Rubbing her face and flopping back, Jane huffs out a sigh and stares down past her Pokemon at her god tier clothing. How did she even wake up with all this on? Weirdo clothing fairy decided to let her have this nonsense, ughhh.]

[Private]
Youre awake thats fantabulous!!!
I was getting worried that youd slip off into a month long coma like john did. :(
Are you okay? And roxy?
Whats going on in our session?
[Private]
I'll just say that.
I also need to stress that if I come flying to your planet
and have pink hair and a really weird expression on my face
that you need to run and not look back.
I am not joking, stay away from the crazy me.
What I really want to tell you,
you in particular Jake,
is that if Dirk starts to get clingy
you had better talk to him or I swear to god I will shake you.
This was a problem that happened at home,
and I am not dealing with it again.
Yes, this was the important news.
No, there is almost nothing to report about our session.
We got in, and nothing has happened.
We're waiting and waiting and it really
really
sucks.
It's only on the day before my birthday
that shit feels like hitting the fan so hard
that it is sending shit to all corners of the galaxy.
[Private]
I
What
Ok jane.
Erm should i ask or am i better off just taking the advice as is?
I dont think hes been clingy so far.
[Oh Jesus Christmas]
Im starting to think that april is cursed.
For real.
:(
[Private]
Agree and take the advice as it is.
April is the worst month ever,
no matter where we are.
The only good thing is birthdays and even that sucked.
[Private]
I think its a good month because its the month you were born in.
Even if bad things happen in april the best thing that ever happened was your birth!
[Private]
Well.
Thank you.
[Give her a moment she's kind of stuffing her face in a pillow and screaming as loud as she can because god damnit Jake you say that so earnestly and mean it, and then forget her birthday entirely until she mentions the party and jkglkjsfdjkjkfjkhjh it was part of the reason she's saying it was terrible.]
[Video]
Janie! You've missed your birthday, but we can fix that. A couple of people left Johto altogether, Jade Harley and Other Father, if you knew them. How are you feeling?
[Video]
Oh goodness, that really sucks to hear.. well, I'm feeling pretty shitty, but I think it's a given for being asleep for a week.
[Video]
Have you had something to eat or drink, yet?
[Video]
How is everyone else doing with those two leaving?
video;
You didn't really miss much, don't worry. No alien invasions or new Pokémon discoveries or anything like that. Welcome back, Jane. How was your brain trip?
video;
video;
[He'll...tell her about Jade in a little bit.]
By the way, I have something for you whenever you are feeling less...irritated. Hopefully it will cheer you up a little!
video;
I -- What? Oh god, I'm sure anything would cheer me up at this point. Please, come make my day so much better! I don't feel like leaving my room just yet, so you know where to find me.
video;
I will be over in a few minutes.
video + action
Good god she wishes she had been in her right mind when they flew to Derse, she could have looked for him, at least to know if he was alright or not. Calliope's brother is such an awful, horrible person, telling her he was being tortured and -- Frowning hard and scrunching her face up, Jane flops back in among her blankets and holds her face.]
I am so sorry Dad..

It's me!

God Tier Nanna of Life, at your service.]
action
Hey th-- woah, cool outfit! Wait...so you went god tier too? But how did you...
[HOW DID YOU GET YOUR CLOTHES...this is another new Johto mystery.]
action
action
So what about everybody else, did they god tier too or just you?
action
Yes, I assume Dirk and Roxy did. I know Jake and myself did.. [And then her face starts turning an odd shade of pink, good lord Jake why oh why didn't you have pants but that ass. Sob.]
action
Hahaha, god tiers for everybody!! Did Jake god at the same time as you or something? Like Rose and D-- err...is something wrong? [Why are you pink, Jane?]
action

Stupid as in it's a god damned gold speedo. Stupid as in eating candy makes you crazy and high and propose ridiculous things like having a million babies. Stupid as in four months of that nonsense and my Dad is in jail on Derse and I think Derse just blew up.
[Yup, keeping her face in her hands. At least she's not thinking of Jake's butt anymore, she's worried about her Dad oh my god why are things so wrong with this session?!?!]

[ Really good. While Valeria knew Jane was in good hands during her sleep coma, she still worried. If anything, it made her realize how little she knew about Jane and the kid's universe, about their situation back home. She didn't know what she'd gone back to, what she might be facing, and she didn't, doesn't like that. Now that she's awake, though... well, Valeria wishes she could bring herself to opt for video right now, but she just isn't feeling up to that or audio. ]
You missed your birthday, but I imagine someone's already told you that. It's something I imagine can be fixed fairly easily.
[ The disappearances, though... well, they'll get to that bridge momentarily. ]
[TEXT]
Hoo hoo, yes, I've heard that
and I am perfectly fine with it.
Nothing but trouble this month,
I swear.
[TEXT]
If there's been nothing but trouble, things only stand to improve. Keep that in mind, Jane.
Do you want to talk about it?
[TEXT]
It's just been four months of waiting
and doing nothing
because all four of our planets are dead as doornails.
[TEXT]
IWhat?[TEXT]
my universe is a big mess.
Also we all just died I think.
Jake and I did anyway.
But we revived as god-tiers,
so technically we can't die from stupid shit anymore?
I can only assume the same for Dirk and Roxy,
since Dirk said things were shaking on Derse.
[TEXT]
afskjlfasdkjlWAWait. What?How?
[TEXT]
In my world, my friends and I started playing a game.
We all thought we would get to meet people,
I meeting my Poppop,
Roxy meeting her mother,
Dirk meeting his brother,
and Jake meeting his grandmother.
The game is called Sburb,
and it sucks the players in and gives them classes and aspects.
Mine happens to be a Maid of Life.
Anyway, going "god tier" means to die on your quest bed.
We somehow all wound up on our quest beds and died at the same time.
Being god tier means we are under a ruling of only dying from a just or heroic death.
[TEXT]
Death wasn't necessarily permanent to begin with, then.
What do classes and aspects have to do with anything?
I'm getting the idea this really is one of those things best talked about in person.
[TEXT]
You get a second life in Sburb in that there is you,
and then there is your dream self
who resides on either Derse or Prospit.
For our session, Jake and myself were on Prospit,
while Dirk and Roxy were on Derse.
If you die, one of the other players is to kiss you,
and you revive as your dream self.
Jake is the only one who did not have a dream self to start with.
I woke up on Prospit once and came across the Prospitians having a funeral for him.
Classes and aspects are somewhat necessary to the game,
as facets to beat and create the new universe.
I don't know all the mechanics so well though.
Roxy and Dirk both understood it better than Jake or I.

So we're nearing the point of swapping over to Kanto!
