[ The feed turns on to see a little, small room. There's a candle lit, and a girl's face complexly looking into the feed. A Sunkern in her hand chirps. It's obvious whoever is operating this thing doesn't really have much of an idea on good angles, or how to actually use the video camera. She turns the PCD to the ceiling, where a Woobat and a Shiny Zubat are both sleeping. It then turns again to see an Ekans wrapping itself tight around a sleeping Torchic before it turns back to Momo.

Once she has the feed pointing back at her, Momo blinks twice before beginning. ]

Is this... Is this on? Hello guys! Hmm, let's see! I'm Momo Hinamori! I've been mostly just trying to adjust and learn how to get settled in so I wouldn't ask any questions you guys probably heard a hundred times before! So, now, that I'm settled in, I kinda have a question. It's about Team Rocket...

[ She pauses. ]

They're charitable freelance dentists, right? [ ...Yeah. Leave it to Momo to be so off subject... ]

And, uh, have any of you ever got people from home come here but they're like younger than what they used to be? One of my close friends arrived here, except he was from a time where we were both in school. And then one of my friends showed up here as a little kid and then they both went home really quickly. Why do people show up here and just leave anyways?!

Also! If someone sees Princess Gorgeous - I think that's her name - please let me know I'm looking for her! She looks a lot like Hayate, except she's an impostor. [ She's very timid with this whole network thing. How many things does she talk about? When is it appropriate to end? ]

Ahh! Sorry for all of the questions, I guess I just have a lot on my mind! I'll talk to you guys all later! Thank you for listening! [ She kinda lingers on the feed for half a minute before realizing she needs to turn it off. So she'll fumble around with her pokegear until it actually turns off. ]

Well, spiritual energy isn't necessarily needed for strength so you can do cool attacks and sword related things. I know several people that are very adept with hand to hand combat, enough to fight without their sword. Maybe that's his case. It only helps if you're really fighting against a Shinigami, because sometimes they can be so powerful they make normal people sick by the vast amounts of pressure they release.

Really? It seems pretty natural to me. It's like an inflatable suit or something. [ Oh whatever. ] And no, I'm not doing any Shinigami things. I'm the only person from my world here currently, so, it's not like I can actually do anything. Not to mention, I don't have any Shinigami abilities able to be used. Here, in Johto, I'm just a breeder. Not a very good one, if I may add!

Mmhm... can that happen? I mean, normal humans standing up to Shinigami in a last-ditch effort to fight off death or something? It just sounds like something right out of a storybook, if you ask me.

[Just passing right on by the inflatable-suit-body there...] A breeder? Do you breed certain types, or only the Zubats for now? 'Cause I know Obito-kun and Riku are breeders, and they seem to be pretty successful at it... Joonhee-niisan is too, but he hasn't had any eggs yet because he never catches anything...

Oh, no, that never happens! Mostly because Shinigami show up after a person died! I was referring to Shinigami against Shinigami! Cause, sometimes, a person's spiritual power is so strong they can just paralyze and knock others out by releasing it!

[ She nods. ] I think I breed only bats for now, but I definitely want to expand, you know? I'm just not exactly sure how to... [ Make pokemon... Uhhh.... ] go about this business. I do want to catch pokémon and then breed them, mostly because I don't want to take other eggs people probably need. You should encourage Joonhee to catch more pokémon!!

Oh wow, I never even thought... I guess it makes sense, though, that not even all Shinigami would be able to get along. There's ninja who can do stuff like that too... or so I've heard, anyway.

Well... I think a big part of it would be to get Pokémon who aren't bats, you know? But... Momo...

If you want an egg, you should buy it. That's how that works...

[Just ask Tenten, she buys eggs all the time. :|]

Sometimes conflicts break out. They're rare, but they're still notable when they happen. Mostly it's just a captain flexing his power to keep his subordinates in check. Spiritual presence is very strong in higher up ranking people, like me, and very few can really disguise their presence. [ Like her. ]

I'm going to build up my bat empire first! Therefore, they can just deliver the eggs, you know? It's a good idea! For me, anyways. It can also help strengthen them, maybe! [ Sobs. She's so stubborn and stupid with these things. ]

Yeah, but I bet a lot of people want that egg too. I just don't want to take something someone else needs. [ Can you imagine her in traffic? The people behind her would probably start getting strangling urges. ]

That sounds... really dangerous, actually, what with Shinigami using their power just because they can. I mean, I'm sure there are ninja who do that too, but...

Alright, once you get your empire founded, you'll be Momo, Empress of the Bats? But really, don't worry about if someone wants the egg or not. How about I'll get you an egg sometime, okay? Then you don't have to worry about it...

[Come on, Momo, don't be that person in traffic...]

It can be at times. I mean, I've heard things that high spiritual pressure can actually kill regular people right off the bat. It can also knock people out and hurt them. However, if anyone releases that much spiritual pressure, it causes a commotion amongst the other ranking members of the Soul Society and they show up, so it's not like they can abuse that and get away with it.

I guess! I'll be Momo! The Batty Queen! [ Wait. No. That was a mess up. ] I mean, the Queen of Bats! [ That's a lot better. ] And okay, I guess that works, but I should really give you two of my bat eggs in return, so you can join me in bat bliss! [ Haha this conversation is so very batty... ]

So it's pretty regulated, then? I guess that's a good thing about the afterlife, then. I'd hope people would keep an eye on that kind of thing, after all.

Batty Queen it is! But maybe one bat egg to start with, someday. Let me know~

Well, yeah. Shinigami can't legally kill other humans and stuff like that, then they face the Sogyoku! [ Boy ask what that is Tenten. I dare you! ]

I will~!

[Oh boy, that sounds new! She thinks she will!]

What's a Sogyoku? Like prison...?

Nope. It's what we use to execute really bad Shinigami. It's sealed by really thick ropes, but, when it's released, a phoenix shoots away from the hill and attacks the offender so harshly that their entire soul is burnt out from existence. They'll never be reincarnated or anything, it's the ultimate punishment. [ It's bad Tenten. Really, really bad. ]

[O...h... yeah she gets that it's bad now.]

That's... huh. That's the only way to permanently die...?

Yep! It's said to have the strength of a thousand zanpakutous, which is like, a thousand of my swords all piercing the same target.

There's another way to die permanently too. If you're a hollow, and you aren't killed by a zanpakutou sword, then you can't be reborn because your soul wasn't purified so you're life ends there. Luckily, that rarely happens.

That sounds... really cool. Except for the die permanently part, the execution of it sounds pretty cool!

[Whoops, unintentional pun there.]

But that's... that sounds pretty scary. And that's the job of a shinigami, to make sure that happens?

I've seen a couple of Sogyoku executions, they're actually really bright and kinda colorful. The entire sky becomes orange and red and it just burns into each other once it's done. [ She's not noticing the pun, instead she's agreeing with Tenten. ] But, it's very scary and the spiritual energy makes it kinda unsettling. I'm glad Captain Aizen was there to reassure me... [ She takes a dreamy sigh before continuing. ]

The job of a Shinigami is to purify hollows with your zanpakutou. It can be terrifying, but it's a necessary thing to do and you shouldn't show fear over it. I mean, I nearly died from my first encounter with a fearful hollow but I got over it and worked my way up to become a lieutenant! You shouldn't have fear for doing the right thing!

So it's like fireworks, just... aimed at people. Well. Fireworks and swords all in one. [Tenten no, it's its own thing, just stop.] But Captain Aizen, you said he was your superior, right...? [What's that sigh, Momo, there's not something going on there, is there~?]

It's like a mission, then. It was pretty scary for my first mission, too, but after that, it gets easier. It's stuff that has to get done for the village, you know?

It's not like fireworks at all. It's like the force of a thousand swords, except it's all poured into a phoenix. A bird made out of fire. [ Or something. ] And yes! Captain Aizen is my superior! He's one of the kindest, gentlest, smartest people I've ever met! They say he's one of the strongest captains ever!

[ She nods her head. ]

It's like that! You have to get it done for the organization. It's scarier to shirk your duties and have your boss yell at you or say "I'm disappointed"... [ Yikes. What a terrifying thought! ]

Sounds like a pretty great guy. You and he aren't...?

[Come on, Momo, tell her that you're involved with the strongest Captain~]

Well... I don't know if I could imagine Sandaime-sama yelling. Gai-sensei would probably cry if we failed, though, and then blame himself for it... oh boy.

[Yeah that would be worse.]

Aren't what...? [ She's not getting it. In so many ways. ]

Hmm... what's Sandaime-sama like? Isn't Gai-sensei the one that wears spandex and trains a lot? Are you sure he wouldn't just make you guys train constantly?

Aren't... you know. Together? [Probably still not specific enough...]

Sandaime-sama is... well, he was a great man. An old guy, always wearing the big Hokage triangle-hat. [She gestures as if to draw that damn hat on top of her head.] He always made time to come to the Academy, see how we were doing. If you really had to talk to him, he'd always find a way to make time. A Hokage is the strongest ninja in a village, after all, but he was a great leader, too.

[~~If only she knew what a royal screw up he'd been...~~]

Together....? Well, I am his lieutenant! We're together everyday! [ Sexually Oblivious Momo is going to become a meme. Just you wait. ]

Hmmm... so it sounds like if he was angry, he'd use a big booming voice and a fierce shaking of the finger! [ She knows this type! At least he sounds more pleasant than "charring you and not giving any fucks" Yamamoto. ]

Right... [Just... facepalming and moving on, okay then Momo.]

I don't know if he ever got angry, though! I mean, that would be pretty scary if he did, but I think what's worse is that if you messed up, he'd just get this disappointed face and sigh.

That reminds me of Unohana-taichou. They say her temper is more dangerous than being burned alive by our head captain's fire attacks and those can erase you from existence. But, at the most, she just sighs and says she's disappointed. [ It's a very very very sad thing. ]

It just hits you where it hurts, you know? Disappointing someone that had faith in you.

Yeah, that's the absolute worst. If I disappointed my sensei...?

[Man, the muscle pain probably wouldn't even compare.]

I don't know what I'd do. It's nice to know there's someone else who feels the same way.

I'm sure you'd be doing so many pushups based on the stories I've heard! I'm sure he's forgiving enough to make the incident forgettable! [ She's optimistic, at least. ]
