FIRST TEST ☢ VIDEO / ACTION [GOLDENROD CITY]

[brilliantideas]

[Wheatley woke up in a human body in the Team Rocket base in Johto nearly a week ago. Since then he's been getting used to being human. That's a bit more pressing than the fact that he's in some strange new world with some odd companions - a bat and a snake. Wheatley's rather fond of the company, though he won't admit it. Today he's wandering Goldenrod City with Companion Bat - his starter Pokémon, a Woobat. He doesn't seem to be looking for anything in particular, but rather examining the city itself.]

[Eventually he'll stop, check the Gear, and finally prepare to introduce himself to the network.]

Ah, hello? Hello? Is this thing on?

[The video turns on to an extreme close-up of Wheatley's forehead. After a moment he pulls the Gear back and smiles. Wheatley has very pale skin, odd blue and black eyes, and short white hair that's parted neatly in the center. He would look menacing if it weren't apparent that he's tiny. The Woobat he's carrying should give the viewer some idea of just how short he is.]

Excellent, excellent! Good afternoon, Johto. I'm sure it's a pleasure to meet you and all that, but there are more pressing matters to attend to.

[Wheatley clears his throat.]

I'm sure there are others of you here who are... ah, like me. That is to say, there are others of you here who didn't start out as a smelly-- ah, I mean, as a human. So! What I'm asking is-- Well, I'm sure there are others who have asked the same thing, but bear with me-- How do I return home? I have some important things to take care of back home and, well... I'd rather not be a human. Oh, don't get me wrong, the freedom is very nice! Very nice. But I would like to get home, and I'm certain someone must know how to return home.

[Oh, he's gone on for far too long, hasn't he? Wheatley laughs awkwardly.]

Well, thank you for your time, then! I hope to hear from someone soon!

Hah! Good luck with that! I've been here for almost half a sweep and I haven't found a way home. Or a way back to my normal body. Human bodies are fucking weird.

[tinymoonkid]

What's the matter with bein' human, dude?

[video]

[combat_butler]

... you might be human now, but you sure still show the signs of not being before...

Besides, being human isn't all that bad! You get to have thumbs!

[foreveraclone]

Don't think you're gonna get anywhere, so you might as well get used to it. [said with a teensy bit of vehemence.]

[notthetindog]

What, you were some kind of alien?

[Mickey can believe it, with those eyes.]

[exeggutorhead]

Too bad for you, you're stuck here as a human until this place decides to make you disappear.

Annoying, isn't it?

[Audio]

[neurotoxined]

Oh. You're here.

[You're not getting a video to go with it, but that voice should sound very familiar there, Wheatley.

How's it going? We're not impressed.]

[video]

[usedsuperpower]

Nnnnnope! No going home!

Video [HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THIS GAAH] 1/2

[nasa_dreams]

WHY AREN'T YOU STILL IN SPACE-

Text. And uuugh, I didn't really want to miss this. But I did. Kill me now.

[shakespearealien]

I did not use to be a human either.

And I have yet to discover a way to return to our respective homes that is not exclusively ruled by fate.

[Though it's not like he looked really hard for it, haha. He'll never say it, but he loves being an earthling.]
