[TEST DRIVE] The Joey Show's About to Begin

[infernofireblast]

[The feed goes live, but the camera is shaky and obviously in-motion. A blonde-haired youth suddenly appears on the screen, big grin on his face and hand formed into a thumbs-up.]

What's good trainers! Joey Wheeler, comin' to ya live from Violet City! Been a little ova a week since I got dropped into dis' weird new world, but I already landed me a shiny new Zephyr Badge!

[He holds the wing-shaped badge up to the camera.]

Me and Red Eyes had a tough go of it, but da squad came through just like always! There's no breaks on the Joey Train though, so the next stop's Azalea!

[Marik just stares. Not having ever really played any video games, he has no frame of reference. He's just been told it isn't. But that does rather sum up everything he's experienced decently well...

[Time for another existential crisis.]

A-And you've said you've... been... through this sort of place numerous times before... Have you been here?

[infernofireblast]

Nah dis one's new to me, but we've been through two of Kaibacorp's virtual worlds and a wacky kind of alternate world cooked-up by Alexandah da Great so I figure it'll fit da bill pretty much da same.

[He nods in agreement with his own sentence.]

Besides, me and da gang would hit the arcade all the time back before all da craziness with end-a da world stuff stahted, so Old Joey knows his way around a video game or two!
