1st Station ➲ Video

[Hey, haven't you seen this face before, Luceti? Isn't it usually more frown-y, and doesn't that guy wear black?

...Nah, it can't be the same guy, this guy seems so much more exuberant in comparison.]

Got it to work! I am Emmet! I am a Subway Boss. I like trains. I like combinations of two Pokémon. If you have Pokémon, we'll have to battle sometime!

Right! I see a lot of people disembarked on this station instead of the next - I am from the most recent arrival on the schedule! But Ingo is showing me around, so I don't need that much help.

And for those of you who were taking care of my brother while I was away, thank you! He's fussy, but he's a good guy.

Subway Boss?

[infinitegrin]

That's right! My brother and I take challenges for Pokémon battles on the Battle Subway!

[positivelycharged]

So there's a subway just for battles?...What's a subway?

[infinitegrin]

[Whoa. Ingo told him that there were many people from many worlds, but not knowing what a subway is...]

It's a train track system that runs underground! It's a form of transportation that connects cities together and allows people to travel between them quickly and easily!

[positivelycharged]

Ooh. That sounds really useful! If there was a subway in Daath then maybe I could visit everybody even if they were really far away.

[infinitegrin]

Absolutely! Though I'm told that you likely won't remember once you go home, if you so happen to, you should encourage the development of a public transit system like a train or a subway!

[EMMET: SPREADING TRAINS TO OTHER WORLDS]

[positivelycharged]

Okay! If I remember then I'll tell everybody all about it! I'll even draw a picture so they'll know what it looks like~!

[But Florian, you don't know what it looks like...]

[infinitegrin]

Great! It's a lot more complicated than this, but basically, it's a long collection of cars that can fit people inside, with an engine on one of the ends that has the power to move the weight! It follows along a set of tracks laid into the ground, where the wheels ride along, and that keeps the path and the commute the same every time!

[positivelycharged]

Ummm...I think I saw a car in a book once. What does an engine look like though?

[infinitegrin]

An engine can be built in a lot of different ways, but it all depends on what the fuel source is! What source of fuel is most readily available in your world?

[positivelycharged]

Fuel?....Oh, I know, fonons!

[infinitegrin]

I've never heard of that fuel!

[positivelycharged]

Fonons were very important back home! Nobody really talks about them here though.

[infinitegrin]

It may be something unique to your world! Does your world have vehicles of any sort?

[positivelycharged]

Oh, the Albiore's a vehicle! And, um...ships!

[infinitegrin]

Then the design would probably have to work quite a bit like the engines on those machines!

[positivelycharged]

Ohh...maybe I'll look for a picture of an engine in the library. They've got a lot of picture books.

[infinitegrin]

--Oh! I wonder if the library has information from other worlds about trains!

[positivelycharged]

Maybe! It's got books about all sorts of things, so there's probably trains too, right?

[infinitegrin]

I love trains! I have to see the library!!

[positivelycharged]

Go go go it's great!!!

[infinitegrin]

I will!! Thanks!!
