[The video screen shook a bit, as Ivan seemed to be adjusting it after finally figuring out how the damn thing worked. His face took up the majority of the screen.
Amazing! This thing didn't even look like a camera, and it seemed to do a lot more than just that too. They had portable cameras where he came from, but video was a whole 'nother story.
There was a whine, obviously feral, and the camera shifted down to a small yellow rat. Or Pikachu, but Ivan preferred to call it a rat.]
Heh! And look at this thing--it fits into a ball!
[He shoves it with his foot. The "rat" protests again, sparking angrily. Ivan either ignores it or simply doesn't notice as he turns the camera back to his beautiful visage. The lens wasn't as close now, and his Soviet Major's uniform could be seen. He had refused to change into his new Rocket uniform.]
If somebody could explain to me how to get home, the only assholes I talked to--
[And that's about the last thing Ivan says (besides a surprised scream) as he gets a good shock and the feed ends.]

[video] slowly regaining my Ivan mojo (no, really)
Date: 2011-03-02 06:00 am (UTC)Almost completely ignoring what Kaz said:]
Who are you, anyway?
[Ivan's too good for your help, Kaz. At least in matters of Pokemon. Now, if you had some other ideas in mind--]
[video] we can derp along together
Date: 2011-03-02 06:05 am (UTC)You're pretty pushy, huh, comrade?
[video] yayaya well I'm having a INSPIRATIONAL MOMENT now
Date: 2011-03-02 06:19 am (UTC)[He smiles in return, but it's a little snooty.]
[video] Kaz IS pretty good at raising morale
Date: 2011-03-02 06:28 am (UTC)Understandable. Why don't you go first? Call it a show of goodwill.
[video] that he is
Date: 2011-03-02 06:33 am (UTC)Why? I asked first.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 06:38 am (UTC)[He gives Ivan a sly smirk.]
But maybe you could make it up to me.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 06:44 am (UTC)I don't owe you anything. I'll exchange my name for yours, but you need to tell first.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 06:51 am (UTC)[The interest certainly catches his eye. That could be interesting. But he's not going to give in so easy. He shrugs loosely and leans back, apparently fine with those conditions. Moving on, then.]
Don't see a whole lot of Russian military around here.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:15 am (UTC)...No? What does it matter to you?
[If he can't get his name, maybe he could get a nationality.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:20 am (UTC)Well, people around here aren't even necessarily from the same planet as us. Can't blame a guy for noticing something from home.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:23 am (UTC)[Ivan likes to think he's as famous as the coattails he rides on.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:24 am (UTC)...should I?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:27 am (UTC)[He smiles confidently.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:30 am (UTC)[video]
Date: 2011-03-03 12:40 am (UTC)[Well he's basically giving away his title just by mentioning that--at least he would be back home.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:29 am (UTC)[video] KAZ WHY
Date: 2011-03-04 12:36 am (UTC)[But the Colonel wasn't dead, and he clenched his jaw and scowled at Kaz over the screen.]
You're nothing but lowlife scum who has no idea what he's talking about! The Colonel is alive and well, and if he were here right now he'd make it known.
[video] WHOOPS
Date: 2011-03-04 12:39 am (UTC)[Would this face lie to you, Raikov?]
Do me a favor and tell me what year it was for you.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:53 am (UTC)[He's still peaking in agitation; blame it on the fact even the idea of Volgin being dead was enough to cripple him.]
What year? You don't even know what year it is?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:55 am (UTC)[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 12:57 am (UTC)...1964.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:00 am (UTC)Aha! See, I thought so. Ten years out of date from where I'm standing.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:03 am (UTC)[But what if--Volgin--no, no, that was a stupid thought. He shouldn't let it get to him.
Plans with the Shagohod were going accordingly.]
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:05 am (UTC)Nope! Sounds pretty unbelievable, I know. But I've met people here from further in the future. The past, too. It's pretty wild.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-04 01:14 am (UTC)...[He rolled his eyes and shook his head, speaking in a dubious tone.]
Sure. Whatever you say.
