Text Survey for the People of Route

This is a survey meant to gather data on who comes to this place, where they come from, and under what circumstances do they come and go. Due to the fact that the answers to these questions could stray into personal territory, the code for a private filter has been provided for you to use at your discretion.

[There is the promised code typed here, good for a relatively complex filter. Reid learned this particular code from staring over Garcia's shoulder enough times.]

Any public presentation of this data will not include names--individual people and their worlds will be assigned numbers instead, even in my notes. But to keep track of who belongs to what world, please include names on this for my benefit.

Name:

Sex:

Gender:

Age:

How long you've been here:

Brief description of your world:
Since this world is our common denominator, please list major differences your world has to this one (except the absence of Pokemon). Does it have things like spirits, ghosts, witches, etc.? Are there creatures like unicorns, dragons, sprites, elves, etc.? Are you even from planet Earth? What is the most advanced form of technology that you are familiar with in your world? Go into as much detail as you like. If possible, please include the year you are from and any other differences between your world and most others that you can think of.

Brief description of your life: What socioeconomic class are you, do you live with your family, what climate is the place you live, would you describe your life as happy or sad, etc. (Note: details aren't required if you say you didn't like your life from before, but just saying whether you did or not could really be helpful.)

Circumstances surrounding your abduction: Did anything significant happen to you within a week of coming here? Did you notice anything strange about the people or world around you?

Your history here: Have you ever been here and gone back home before, and then if so, do you remember your time here and did you notice anything strange leading up to your arrival home?

Others from your world: Have you met anyone else from your world? If so, how many, what are their names, and if possible, provide a brief description of their personality and history.

Circumstances around arrivals from other people from your world: If you answered yes to the previous question, when did they arrive in relation to you? What is your relationship to them? Are they still here?

Circumstances around disappearances by other people from your world: If you knew someone from your world but they went away, can you think of anything strange leading up to it? Odd behavior, significant happenings, frequent accidents, anything like that.

Frequency of 'replacements': If you know someone from your world who has disappeared and then reappeared, how often has this happened? Do they remember this world or forget? Are they from different times, and if so, where is it in relation to you?

Any data is appreciated.

Recently edited to provide more accessible questions under 'world description'.




OOC: I'm going to tag this slowly since this is a long-term post, but I'll tag, don't worry.

[He almost doesn't submit his survey answers. As much as he'd like to find a way to go back home, a part of him was a little too apprehensive to take that plunge. What if they did find a way back (other than obviously go home)? How was Rin supposed to face those same friends who rejected him after learning what he was? He had okay relations here in Johto and while he rarely saw them face-to-face it was almost comforting.

In that small way, he could understand why some people made internet friends. But he didn't like keeping secrets or lying to those around him. It was stressful. He could barely be himself around the few people he spoke to in person, much less his pokégear penpals.

But maybe he could make a small leap. After all, he wasn't going to get back home by being a coward.]


Name: Okumura Rin
Sex: male
Gender: why are you asking the same question twice
Age: 15
How long have you been here: nine long months

brief description of your world: this is a stupid question, doc. my worlds like anyone elses. its got trees and oceans and rivers and forests. its got prime ministers, schools, and churches. i live in japan, true cross town, around tokyo. but yeah it has some supernatural stuff. ghosts. demons. not everyone can see them since theyre not supposed to be able to pass between worlds. you wont notice em. you gotta get hurt by a demon somehow first to see them first.

brief description of your life: i lived in a monastery with my twin brother and the rest of the clergy. the man who raised us was the head priest, Father Fujimoto. i went to school and also cram school for exorcists. cram schools for learning about demons, about weaknesses and strengths, and what they are, where they come from...

circumstances of your abduction: you mean what happened before i came here or after? when i came here everyone treated me nicely and told me how to get around. its normal for everyone and it just feels more normal the more days go by, you know? not like i forgot my life back home - no way i will forgot that - but like everything here is calmer. no ones trying to kill anyone and so far everyone is okay with everyone else.

before i came here i was just starting my training. it was a little after i was on trial. theyre going to exorcise me if i dont pass the exam.

even though everything is nice here, im wasting time.

your history here: i had some friends. i think i have an enemy but even he is okay. i have a real job now at the breeding center but i havent gone back. i want to. i have to.

others from your world: i wish. i havent seen anyone from home in a long time. not even my brother.

i cant answer any of the other questions either. but i did know other people who left. they got quiet and its harder to get in contact with them, like they're drifting away. next thing you know, they're gone.
