10 days till Halloween [video]

[Boop! Today, Jack's feed focuses on a much more alert and determined face than his last video. His pokemon are healed, his spirits are high, and he is ready to prove to everyone that he is totally not zubatshit insane! Behind him looms the Sprout Tower, silhouetted by the sinking sun.]

Good mor--er afternoon! I have finally made it to the tower! It reminds me of home so much. The ghosts inside are going to point me the way home, but if I find a way back, I'll definitely visit! You have all been such wonderful company and great help! Edgar, are you ready?

[The Murkrow pops into the frame with her GAME FACE on. She has no idea what Jack's babbling about but she's seen some ratatta rustling around the grass at the tower's base and she's ready to go kick some purple rodent ass. "KROW!"]

Everyone take care!

[Oh, he'll be back....]

... They're gonna show you home?

Can they do that?

_{[Like, she knew there were GHOSTS, but... would they know how to do that?]}

Heather! I'm glad you caught me!

[Behind him, the inside of the Tower can be seen. He's actually video-chatting while CLIMBING A LADDER.]

Aww, I'll miss you. How'v you been?

_{[Aw, he was sweet, but that... still didn't answer her question. Oh well. Maybe he knew what he was doing.]}

Uh-- ... been better, for lack of a more clever way of saying it.

Things have been crazy.

S'cool now, though.

[... This again?]

Mr. Jack, are you quite sure this will work?

... They're home-guiding ghosts?! Sweetie never did anything like that!

Wait-- the ghosts in that tower know how to get home?! But Misty doesn't do that!

I hate to break it to you, but I spent an entire week in that damned tower and none of ghosts there were of any help in finding the way home, so... Don't get your hopes up.

It's good to hear things are looking up. I hope they stay that way! Hold on.

[The view goes kind of WHAT THE FUCK CLOVERFIELD as Jack tosses the 'Gear up onto the floor above him so he can use both hands to climb up.]

[Oh, yes! This again!]

I've got a feeling in my bones it will. You've been a great friend, Shelly!

[Go ahead and faceplam, Shelly. You have every right to.]

Hello! It's been a while! Well, I've got a theory it might work for me. I used to be dead. Can't hurt to try!

I'm not 100% but I've got a good feeling! If I don't come back out, it worked!

[Or he like...fell down a ladder. And died. Again.]

[The audio is scratchy]

Where's your home? Where I live, most of the people are dead, so I think the ghosts here might at least point me in the general direction.

You used to be--

... Whaaaaaaaaaat?!?

[Luckily, he's in a patient mood right now.]

A-- W-Well, thank you, I suppose.

I live in Japa---

...............

D-DEAD?!

... Please tell me you're kidding.

Good luck, Jack! Let us know if you're successful! That way, I can get Misty to take me home!

It's--uh-- a long story! But don't worry, I'm not contagious or anything!

_{I don't think.}

Good! Not that I'm prejudiced against dead people or anything, but I kind of like being alive!

Well maybe not MOST...maybe half of us. I was a skeleton. These other ghouls are sure to know what I'm talking about.

[Jack has gotten used to explaining himself by now, so the story sounds a little pre-recorded.]

Now that I'm used to it, I don't think it's half bad either!

I could do without cuts though.

... Okay. So. I'm talking to a dead guy. [Not for the first time, too. He seems a little wary now, though.] ... But you're not a Dark Signer or anything, right?

Aaand if you're looking for the door leading to the Underworld or a similar thing, trust me, you won't find it there. Also those ghosts are a bunch of jerks, so no use asking them.

We all could! [ and because she's curious ] How did that work, though...? I mean, being dead-- you knew other dead people, right?

Ex-dead...possibly about to be un-undead? Re-dead?

[Jack trails off and starts puzzling aloud over what term he falls under because he's a dork like that. FOR SCIENCE.]

I haven't heard of a Dark Signer. What kind of monster is that?

[He starts to question his plan since Crow has been in here before but...damn if he isn't optimistic!]

[From the look on Crow's face, it's rather easy to tell that for the love of Quetzalcoatl, he doesn't even want to know.]

... They're not monsters, just-- Uh. [Zombies with evil Peruvian gods sealed in their heads. Sure, of course it sounds completely plausible.] Y'know what, never mind.

Anyway, er. Try to come back in one piece...? [Optimistic could kill you! ~~Bad pun.~~]

I did! A lot of good friends of mine are dead. Not everyone where I'm from is though. Some of us are what you would probably call monsters and--

[A spherical purple creature with a cool-whip dollop of white fluff on top floats in front of the camera. The Driftloon brushes against the side of Jack's head, making some of his hair stand up with static.]

...are much scarier than this. Hindenburg, shoo! Help me find the other ghosts!
