02. [Voice/Action]
Good day, one and all! To all of you people listening in out there, I'd like to let you know that the SOS Brigade is holding a raffle. Today! All three of me will be handing out tickets at the SOS Brigade clubhouse, but we'll all be spreading out around the plaza too so keep an eye out for all of me!
[That's right, all three of her. Sorry, but there are no bonus prizes for anyone that ends up running into three 'Duplicas' today. Speaking of which, a raffle isn't much fun if you don't know what you're going in with a chance of winning, right?]
You might just end up winning one of these great prizes that the Brigade has lined up, so make sure you listen closely.
[Cue Duplica reading off the following list of prizes:
1. Free Brigade consultation
2. Free Favor from the Brigade
3. Ride on a Dragon
4. Spend a day with a celebrity of your choice
5. Signed Idol Photograph
6. A Slot Machine
7. A bento created by the chief of the Brigade
8. Photos on a Brigade member in a nurse outfit
9. Mp3 or CD of an acoustic version of God Knows
10. Mp3 or CD of a cover of Eye of the Tiger
Her enthusiasm seems to pick up when she reads out number four, that's definitely a good prize to get.]
So now you know what's going on all you have left to do is find me. We'll try and be around until noon today. We'll be drawing winners this afternoon so don't put it off until the last minute. All of me are looking forward to seeing all of you!
[After she's finished speaking, Duplica heads to the SOS clubhouse and stands outside with a bunch of tickets in her hands. There's also another Duplica wandering around the plaza with her own tickets and yet another, shorter Duplica doing the same thing. If you happen to talk to any of the Duplicas in the plaza then you'll only end up getting a friendly smile. The real deal and the clubhouse will be more than happy to talk and might even come over if any of her other 'Duplicas' are running into trouble.]

--You. Are fantastic! That's quite a talent!
...and no, I don't know what 'pokemon' is.
[
he should, being from a baseline earth kind of world, but he doesn't pay attention to children's toys]action
Listen up kid and I'll try to explain.
[She claps her hands together in the air, catching the attention of the other Duplicas by doing so.]
Ditto, Mini-Dit, transform now!
[At that, both of the Duplicas are covered in a bright light. They start shrinking down, becoming smaller and smaller until they resemble shapeless blobs. When the light fades there are two pink Pokemon standing where both Duplicas used to be.]
These guys are a part of my Pokemon team, Ditto and Mini-Dit. Here, they're coming to say hello.
[Being an amorphous blob makes traveling a little hard, but both Dittos are slowly making their way over to say hi.]
action
Lupin's attention was pulled to the two other Duplicas...and their transformation. He frowned softly in curiosity as the two little creatures slid their way over.]
They're kind of cute...like bubble gum.
action
[They might transform and chew back. While she's not fond of the bubble gum comparison the cute comment sounds a little better.]
They are very cute, my Dittos look their absolute best when they look like this. [Oh, right, the explanation.] Both of these Pokemon are called Ditto, that's their name. Mini-Dit is a nickname I gave to the latest addition to my team.
action
gum...
Headtilt.]
Duplica-chan. I still don't really know what a pokemon is.
action
These are Pokemon! There are over two hundred and fifty different Pokemon in my world, but I know there are even more out there too. [She doesn't know the numbers exactly, but having been introduced to some Unova Pokemon here she knows there are more.] There are all sorts of different Pokemon, some people use them to battle or some keep them for company. But they don't all look like Ditto! For example, Pikachu is a mouse Pokemon which has two red cheeks and a jagged tail. It's a little hard to describe without showing you a real live Pikachu.

They don't look like silly putty at all, don't say that! Duplica just stares at Lupin for a moment before going over and picking up her two Ditto. It's okay guys, you're nothing like silly putty, really.]
action
...did I say something wrong?
action
[So please don't call them names when they're right here. It was bad enough when Misty went and called them weird and abnormal.]
My Ditto might not be much to look at to you, but to me they're my friends and a part of my team.
action
...I understand. This is all just very, very new to me.
action
[It still bothers her and her Pokemon a little to just be called a name like that though. After staring down at her Ditto for a short moment she suddenly comes up with an idea. Ahem, back to the impression she was putting on before.]
Hey kid, why don't you try holding one of them?
action
[He understands, a little. The larger part of his questions lie in their habitat, how they're able to transform, and their level of intelligence at this point. Though he had met intelligent animals before
a certain dolphin comes to mind, he's never dealt with one that took offence at random commentary.Again, excluding that dolphin. She was a bitch.Lupin offered out a hand slowly, as if he were trying to pet a strange dog. One of them could slide on, right?]
action
[Sliding on over would be boring. Duplica looks down at Mini-Dit and nods her head in Lupin's direction. It's okay, go and say hello!
Mini-Dit smiles and hops right out of Duplica's arms towards Lupin's hand with a cry. Try not to drop the poor little Ditto now!]
action
Okay....um, now what?
action
[She moves her arms so one arm is free whilst the other one lightly cradles her Ditto close to her chest.]
Try holding Mini-Dit like this. Don't worry, he won't jump out of your hands if you're having trouble doing it.
action
[He mimicked her motion and cradled the smaller Ditto against his chest. It's smooth skin and it's pliability still unnerved him--octopi--but the Ditto lacked the tentacles and the uncanny eyes that were known traits in octopods. Overall...]
It's kind of cute!
action
I'm glad to hear you think that! A lot of people aren't very impressed by the way Ditto look, but I think they look just fine the way they are.
[Mini-Dit shifts left and right to get comfortable and then happily settles down in Lupin's arms.]
Looks like Mini-Dit has taken a liking to you.
action 1/2
....
OCTOPUS~~~
Lupin froze, fighting the urge to drop the little Ditto--]
action
Yea~ The little guy does like me...
action
Mini-Dit starts to wriggle free from Lupin's grasp and bounces back over the Duplica and her other Ditto.]
If you like then you can come and say hello to him anytime you like, we're all normally here at the SOS clubhouse.
action
I'll...uh. I'll remember that.
action
[Duplica winks as she sees to both of her Ditto for a moment, making sure they're both okay before continuing.]
So Lupin, what sort of prize are you hoping to win in the raffle?
