questionmarksthespotHa, hey, check it out dudes.
[The video feed is focused, a bit unsteadily, on a sign reading “New Bark Town: Winds of a New Beginning.” What’s so funny isn’t immediately obvious, even as a beefy forearm enters the frame to strategically cover part of the wording.]
“Newb Town.” Ha, oh man, I should be writin’ this down.
[The camera turns to reveal the one speaking, an overweight man in a suit and fez, eye-patch flipped up to reveal a perfectly functioning eye underneath.]
Okay but seriously dudes, I got no idea how I got here. It’s nice an’ all, but I kinda got responsibilities now, you know? Oh, and this thing’s been following me since that weird woman kicked me out of her house.
[The camera spins again to show a Slowpoke flopped down on the grass behind Soos, staring at nothing, eyes blinking just a bit out of synch with each other.]
I guess it’s some kinda mini gummy hippo thing? I figure it either thinks I’m its mom or something, or it wants to eat me.
[There’s a short, considering pause.]
Eh, I give it about a fifty-fifty chance. Those are good odds. And I think I could outrun this little dude if I had to.

[This whole people from the past and future thing is really confusing sometimes.
But...]
Wait! .... am I cool in the future?

...Oh, wait, is that a spoiler, the stuff with that shouty time-guy? Sorry dude. How far in the past are you from, anyway?
...An' dude. Trust me, you are the COOLEST.
Re: [Video]
Date: 2016-04-19 02:25 am (UTC)No. You've met my grunkle Ford in your time, right? After he sent off all those secret service guys?
[Awesome. The future him being cool is just... well, the coolest.]
Re: [Video]
Date: 2016-04-19 02:38 am (UTC)Man, you've missed some pretty crazy stuff. Uh, haven't not will have missed yet? I dunno the right tense for this situation.
Re: [Video]
Date: 2016-04-19 03:09 am (UTC)Knowing his luck it'll be the end of the world. Then how did Soos survive... Okay, no, that might be mean. Soos has a 50/50 chance of surviving.... make that 75/25 in favor of surviving.]
So if you're a month and a half into my future, but I'm a month and a half back from yours... Agh! This is all too confusing! Why is this world letting this happen?!
Re: [Video]
Date: 2016-04-23 12:52 am (UTC)[Nothing's trying to kill them, at least not yet, so just relax and roll with it.]
Though it's kinda weird you didn't mention any of this like a month and a half ago.
...Guess you really do take that spoiler stuff seriously, at least.

Date: 2016-04-26 08:38 pm (UTC)Not unless there's someone who's going to die that maybe I can stop from dying. Is there anything like that?
Re: [Video]
Date: 2016-04-28 06:44 pm (UTC)[Giving this very careful thought.]
I mean, 'cept maybe that triangle guy, but I dunno why anyone'd wanna save THAT nasty little dude.
[And just a moment before he smacks his forehead.]
Oh jeez, sorry dude! That TOTALLY counts as a spoiler, doesn't it. My bad. But I promise! From now on, no more spoilers about the Weirdmageddon.

Give this kid a moment.
You just broke his brain.]

Bill... is really dead? As in dead-never-coming-back-to-haunt-us-dead?
