justanexpression[Obviously, someone has been practicing. When the feed kicks on, it's a properly framed picture of one Jack Frost. He's set up camp in the woods fringing Cherrygrove City with a good view of the beach and a frolicking Seel in the background behind him. He also looks more cheerful and less confused than last time.
Oh, and the egg in his lap. That's new, too.]
So, everyone was awesome about answering my questions last time, now I've got more of them.
Cherrygrove is nice. Been here a couple days, now. [He gestures over his shoulder.] You can tell Phil likes it. Kind of got lost on the way here, yeah, yeah, I know it's a straight line, okay, and Phil is about as slow as slow can be, but now that I'm here, I've got this guy. [He pokes at the egg. It's blue and white and people in the know might recognize it as a Pachirisu egg. Jack is not in the know.] Or girl. How do you tell?
For that matter, what do I do with it? Am I supposed to keep it warm? Someone mentioned a deal for new people just showing up, and that's totally me, so I, uh... just kind of hit buttons until I saw something that sounded good, but now I'm thinking that wasn't the best idea?
[He takes a second to glance over his shoulder, probably to make sure his Seel hadn't been eaten by a shark in the last few minutes or anything. If nothing else, this place seems to be teaching him a really strange sense of responsibility. If only Bunny could see him now.
He resettles, placing the gear on the ground in front of him so it can pick up a full body shot, including the sneakers he wasn't wearing before.]
Okay, second question, and... I know how crazy this sounds, but at least some of you weren't human before getting here, right? Pretty sure I've met one already. [Again, unless Thor's parents had some ridiculous delusions of grandeur.] So the question is- how do you stand it? Not the being here, that's turning out pretty cool, but the rest of it. All the getting hungry, and tired, and walking everywhere, not to mention buying stuff. Am I gonna have to get a- [shudder] -job?

Date: 2013-04-20 01:49 am (UTC)Guardian? [pretty sure the definition of the word Jack is using is different than the one Steve is thinking of]

Date: 2013-04-20 01:57 am (UTC)In my world, the Guardians help protect kids from... well, lots of things. They... We all take care of something to make sure kids get to be kids. Hope, wonder, good dreams. Fun. You know. Santa Claus and stuff.
Video
Date: 2013-04-20 02:39 am (UTC)That sounds real keen, I would have been honored to be a one. You guys must do some great work.

Date: 2013-04-20 02:19 pm (UTC)More of an Easter Kangaroo, really.]We did just save the world from the Boogeyman.
[...Jack, honey, that makes you sound crazy, not brave.]
[video]
Date: 2013-04-20 05:51 pm (UTC)This time, Crow doesn't look offended and chuckles instead, waggling his finger in front of the screen.]
Wrong again! For your information, Crow the Bullet-sama knows everything there is to know 'bout cool, so if you ask nicely, I might even give you a piece of advice or two!
[... But probably not on modesty.]
[video]
Date: 2013-04-20 10:07 pm (UTC)But pffffffffffft nice try.]
Ha, yeah, no. Maybe try again in a couple hundred years, kiddo. A+ for effort, though.
[They'd both need a dictionary to even find the meaning of the word.]
[video]
Date: 2013-04-20 10:54 pm (UTC)"Kiddo"? [The duelist lets out a snort. Who the hell does that guy think he is? CROW'S TOTALLY AND ADULT, OKAY.]
How old are you to call me that, huh?
[video]
Date: 2013-04-20 11:08 pm (UTC)Smug Jack is smug.]
Three-hundred, give or take. I mighta lost count somewhere in the middle there.
[video]
Date: 2013-04-20 11:24 pm (UTC)... Er. [Okay, how does he respond to that-- AHA.]
Well, that explains your hair, gramps.

Date: 2013-04-21 12:14 am (UTC)[And as always, Jack comports himself with nothing but dignity and decorum...]

Date: 2013-04-21 03:45 am (UTC)Re-re-un-dead, I think. It gets a little fuzzy.
[video]
Date: 2013-04-21 07:54 am (UTC)[Crow taps the mark on his cheek with his finger, not really bothered by the question. He's kind of used to people pointing those out, more so back home than here -- people from other worlds have turned out to be surprisingly tolerant in that aspect. Or maybe it's just because they don't know the meaning. Either way, the duelist simply shrugs.]
Just a bunch of criminal markers, 's all.

Date: 2013-04-21 09:18 am (UTC)Like... the monster under the bed my mom told me about?
[he wants to believe you Jack, he does, he's already believing you're Jack Frost and you know Santa, but give him some wiggle room to work up to this one]
Video
Date: 2013-04-21 05:03 pm (UTC)[At least now he's REALIZING it sounds crazy.]
Okay, so children's beliefs are kind of a big deal, right? That's basically how Santa and the Tooth Fairy and all them exist, because kids believe they do. And the same is kinda true of Pitch. Uh, that's the Boogeyman. Except he feeds on fears instead of good things like fun.
So... yeah. He's real, just like the rest of us.
no subject
Date: 2013-04-21 05:52 pm (UTC)But you're alive here, so that... a plus?
[Now Jack's starting to feel a little fuzzy, just in general.]

Date: 2013-04-21 10:52 pm (UTC)Steve'll probably meet her soon, solve that problem.It is a lot to question, especially for an adult who probably stopped believing ages ago if he ever did at all. The fact that he's trying makes him pretty cool in Jack's book. He chuckles.]We're a bunch of myths and fairy tales. It is a little farfetched, huh?

Date: 2013-04-21 11:04 pm (UTC)At first, yeah, but I didn't believe Thor and Loki were real until I met them. Even fought along side Thor, so I know he's the real deal. [though not a god in his book still] So other myths are real, it shouldn't surprise me.

Date: 2013-04-21 11:30 pm (UTC)You're already ahead of most adults, then. It's a good start.
[grin] At this rate, you're gonna end up getting presents for Christmas, too.
[video]
Date: 2013-04-22 12:22 am (UTC)[Come on, don't give him that look.]
Back where I come from, they put 'em on people who break the law. Simple as that.
[... He doesn't sound terribly concerned, though.]

Date: 2013-04-22 12:34 am (UTC)You're not that old. What could you have possibly done to earn something like that?
