[Backdatesd to earlier in the week]

[foughtfortheusers]

[Rinzler growls quietly, being followed by a Pokemon he doesn't exactly want.  A Zorua.  One that won't stop making noises.

This place has him uncomfortable, especially the fact that he's a human.]  How long?  Do not like this...

[OOC:  Open in journal and in person.]

How long what?

[foughtfortheusers]

Until normal again.

Do not like this place.

[cheerupemoborg]

Hopefully not much longer. These sort changes rarely last longer than a week.

[foughtfortheusers]

Hate being like this.

[cheerupemoborg]

Like what, human? It could be worse.

[foughtfortheusers]

User.

[cheerupemoborg]

Wouldn't that make you the equivalent of a god now? What's so bad about that?

[foughtfortheusers]

Flawed.

[cheerupemoborg]

Because of being stripped of your abilities. Right? I imagine programs are capable of a lot more than a normal human is...

[foughtfortheusers]

Exactly.

Dictated [Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

[Staring at the journal entry. Should he answer or just leave it alone?

One of his new Pokemon answers that question for him.]

Shiiiinx!

[Nope not saying anything yet. He'll wait a little longer, see how Rinzler reacts.]

[foughtfortheusers]

Zorua!

Identify.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Shi! Shin shi.

[He waits a beat before speaking. He does want to know how his program's doing. If he could somehow get on his good side, maybe some good could come out of all of this.]

User Alan-1.

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

[Growling] User.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Greetings, Program.

Are you a program, right now? Others were turned into Users when they came here.

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

User. Not program.

Bleed.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Are you hurt? [Rinzler protocol or not, Tron's still in there. Alan's not gonna abandon him, especially with the mention of bleeding.]

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

Something attacked me. Healed now.

Rua. Zorua.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Your Pokemon should be able to protect you. [By now he's seen a battle or two.]

Shinx?

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

Pokemon?

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

The...creature. Zorua, if I heard right..?

Shiiiinx! [His Pokemon agrees.]

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

What it says.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

That's its name. It can fight the other creatures.

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

I can fight.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Caught by surprise, then, earlier?

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

Yes.

[Rinzler]

[is0latedthinker]

Well if it happens again, your Zorua can help out. [Though he doubts it'll happen again. He made the best, even if it was corrupted.]

[Alan]

[foughtfortheusers]

Yes.

[hulloeverything]

[Oh no. Not this again. He speaks before realizing that that might not be the best idea]

Rinzler...

[foughtfortheusers]

Identify.

Zorua.

[hulloeverything]

[Sigh. Oh well. It's not as if letting potential enemies know of his existence has ever stopped him before. He smiles]

Hullo again, Rinzler. I'm the Doctor.

[foughtfortheusers]

Again?

Unknown user.

[hulloeverything]

Yes. You've been here before, actually. I knew you the last time you were here... in a matter of speaking.

[foughtfortheusers]

How?

[hulloeverything]

It's the nature of this place, I'm afraid. It takes people from different times and places and sends them back just as easily.

[foughtfortheusers]

[That gets a soft rumbling noise.] Don't like that.

[hulloeverything]

I didn't expect you would. Yet that doesn't make it any less the case.
