[The video feed sparks with a lick of static that is sure to catch the eye of anyone perusing at the time. A one-two tapping at the screen follows as though the person handling it is merely trying to see how well the bit of hardware holds up against a spot of roughness. The finger moves away and the face of a young man appears while trying to steady the device. Something in the way his lips twitch and his eyes sort of drift this way and that signals that he is a little bit frazzled beneath an otherwise steady smile.

In the background, one can hear a muffled snuffling...]

Oh, uhm... Hey there. [Clearly it has to work like any other transmitter he has messed with, right? At least he seems to know his way around it. His jaw shifts and he tilts his chin up a touch to take on a more "professional" look.]

This is Lockon Stratos requesting a... [A beat. He is rolling the words around inside of his mouth as if something doesn't sound particularly right. He's in a place, somewhere, not on a ship or a military outpost. Still...] ... Status report in regards to the location of New Bark Town.

[His shoulders drop a bit along with one side of his lips. His voice drops to shake away the stilted austere from before. It is more tender this time and has an inflection of genuine curiosity.] Or anything, really. It looks like I'm new here, and it certainly isn't anywhere close to where I was the last time I remembered much of anything. [The corners of his lips twitch upward into a smile this time around--] I'd really appreciate it!

[A cream-colored nose bumps its way into his shoulder and he hops up to turn the device about, revealing an elegant-looking Ponyta with its ears up and dark eyes round and curious.]

ALSO... I found somebody's horse. I can't say I know what to do with it, but here it is!

Thanks again!

I will. Most places have odd jobs available for trainers anyway. And a few people have set up actual businesses here. I work in a bakery, for example. It's definitely a change from programming, but it's not a bad one. It's not hard to find a way to earn a somewhat steady income.

Heh. I've been here for a while, so it's only natural to pass along information. I've never much liked the idea that beneficial information should be so restricted, anyway.

If you don't hand out beneficial information where it's due, it doesn't help too many people. Including yourself. There's a lot of room for growth.

I'm going to get on the road now. Hopefully I can meet with you in person someday. We'll keep in touch.

Agreed.

Take care then, Lockon. If you end up in Goldenrod, let me know. I could show you around.
