The Grand Opening

[driftingmods]

[A large WELCOME sign is hanging from the buildings when you walk into Levanta Town, but that seems to be the only sign that today is any different than any other day. The villagers are simply going about their daily business. However, if they are approached they are more than happy to explain the region as well as they can to any new arrivals.

Welcome to Levanta Town in The Drifting Land!]

[He turned toward the source of that loud gasp, but alas! He was too late, and bam, collision imminent. At the very least, he managed to catch himself (and, as a result, Bianca) before crashing into the shrine. Serperior might have helped a bit with that, but shh.]

Slow down, Bianca! One thing at a time! [he needs time to compose himself, okay]

Despite being a bit overwhelmed by this place, I'm fine, and I have my Pokemon with me. You have yours with you, as well, right? Did you just arrive, as well? [she looks uninjured, which is a good sign, but. She might have done something elsewhere on accident, in true Bianca fashion. He'll have to look into that later.]

[The cuteness of that icon is going to kill me. She didn't do anything! ...Except for bumping into Hilda. And squishing Hilbert with her boobs. Nothing to worry about, really.]

Heh~ I'm so glad to hear that! Yes, Cheren, I just got here! And my team is with me! But I totally got lost and Stoutland couldn't recognize any smell, so I got even more worried!

[PS: still haging off your arm. Yeah.]

[typeadvantage]

[it is the best icon. That might be nothing to worry about, perhaps, but Cheren is Cheren, and Bianca is Bianca. He knows Bianca too well to not worry about things that might have happened. And that also means he's too used to Bianca's behavior to attempt to shake her off his arm. Chances are she won't move, so attempting anything more than a half-hearted shake of his arm is a waste of energy.]

It's not surprising Stoutland couldn't recognize anything. This doesn't appear to be anywhere in Unova, you know.

[futureprofessor]

[Awww, you do care, you big tsun-tsun. Bianca will remain totally oblivious at the half-hearted shake - Cheren is pretty comfy to hang on! Besides, this weird place worries her more than the usual stuff. You can't know what you'll find!]

Yeah, I kinda noticed that... Do you have any idea of like, where we are? Or how we got here?

[typeadvantage]

[He cares because he doesn't want to deal with what might happen if he doesn't! At least, that's his reasoning if he's ever asked, not that it's the actual truth. He is a good friend, ok, he just is bad at admitting to it sometimes.]

I don't know how we got here any more than you do, unfortunately. All I know about where we are is information I've gathered from the local people.

[futureprofessor]

Information, huh? Cheren's always up to date with everything! [Aaaah she knew she could rely on his friend to help her understand what's going on! Bianca is watching Cheren with the eternal admiration she has for her strong friends.] And what have you found out?

[typeadvantage]

[Finding things out on your own is important, too, Bianca! But that's a Cheren Lecture for later, since it. Would probably be helpful to share the (minimal) knowledge about this place that he's gathered. Just to be safe.]

All they've really been able to say is that this is called Levanta Town, and it's in an area known as the Drifting Land. Where that is relative to places we're familiar with, though, I don't know.

[futureprofessor]

[That's what she's doing! She's searching for her friends on her own! And look at that, she found Cheren, so she doesn't need a lecture. Please.]

Drifting? So we're really floating after all! That's incredible! We're floating, Cheren, can you believe it!

[typeadvantage]

[Free lectures for everyone. He's as generous with lectures as Oprah is with free cars.]

Whether or not I believe it likely won't change the facts. That said, I'm not feeling too keen on finding an edge and checking for myself exactly if and how high we're floating.

[futureprofessor]

[He's just abusing the fact Bianca is too nice not to listen to him.

Have a sigh.] It was an expression, Cheren... I'm not going to get anywhere near the edge, come on! [Can you imagine this clumsy bag there?] But that doesn't mean we can't, like, get on a flying Pokémon or a telecospe or something... We're on the sky, Cheren, the SKY! This is exciting!
