100m: I'm gonna wreck it! [Action]

[Action (1)]

[This nine-foot tall, barefoot giant of a man finds himself waking up in any old house or apartment, maybe even in the forest. Completely oblivious to the pink wings on his back for now, he instead comes to attention and begins looking around in confusion.]

What? Where's... No! I can't have been taken to another game. I... I was right there! I was gonna save- I... [And his voice goes soft.] Vanellope...

[His eyes are close for a moment, mournfully. When they open, they're filled with hurt anger. And his unusually massive fists are soon put to work... wrecking his immediate surroundings in an angry tantrum, while he shouts loudly. He could keep going until there's nothing left. He will hold himself back from hurting actual people, but he will at least shove aside those who get in his way at emotional heights.]

[Action 2]

[Later on, after being calmed from his tantrum, Ralph trudges through town, defeated and feeling ashamed. First day in a new game and already he's been playing the bad guy. So he makes his way through the item and clothing shops, finding one item in the former which gives him a strong, bittersweet feeling, and then he makes his way out of the village. He only stops at Good Spirits for a round of root beers, trying to keep to himself. That evening, with a sack of bricks over his shoulder, he seeks a nice stump to sleep against, in between bouts of the freezing rain.]

"I see. Did you by chance have some particular quarrel with this building?"
averybadfeeling: (Are you certain?)

"Oh, could I ask that you restrict your damage to the main structure of the building? The sofa doesn't repair itself in the shifts."

[He would, Obi-Wan assumes, have no idea what that meant. Put him off guard, and perhaps he'll open up to more reasonable conversations.]

"Well, for starters, your friend Felix isn't here. This is not the world you came from, I'm afraid."

[Games. Hmm. That... made little sense, but then, so did many things in this place.]

"I'm afraid it could be quite difficult. It isn't currently possible to travel to and from this world under one's own power. We're still not entirely certain how we get here at all."

[But then, the mention of games gives him a thought.]

"However if you truly wish for something you can freely demolish, I believe I can help you there."

[Not that he thinks destruction is a terribly healthy outlet for anger, but destroying simulated things in the battledome is certainly preferable to destroying his own furniture, or somebody else's.]

"Not at all. No, it's... a bit like a game, in fact. We have a building that can simulate objects that you can interact with. For instance, buildings to, as you put it, wreck."
averybadfeeling: (You go on)

"Follow me, I'll take you there and teach you how to use it. But first-"

[He glances up and down Ralph's poorly-clothed frame.]

"We should probably fetch your clothing. It's at a shop in town."
averybadfeeling: (You go on)

"Typically, your own clothing arrives when you do. Usually your significant personal effects show up sooner or later as well."

[He opens the door for the voluminous fellow, gesturing him through in an 'after you gesture.']

"My name is Obi-Wan Kenobi, by the way. I'll do my best to explain this place along the way."
averybadfeeling: (Just wondering)

"It's quite alright, I assure you. I've seen far more unpleasant first days in Luceti. It's an honor to meet you, Ralph."

[As he leads Ralph toward the clothing shop, he points out the local landmarks, the item shop and the welcome center in particular.]

"This place was built by a team of scientists known as the Malnosso. The entire village and the surrounding environs are contained within a large enclosure, which prevents the more hostile elements from reaching us. It also serves to prevent us from leaving."
averybadfeeling: (Contemplate)

"I'm afraid there is no objective, really."

[There was that game talk again. How peculiar.]

"... Ralph, you... speak as if you are from a video game, correct?"

[That was bizarre, to say the least. He hadn't discovered he was the subject of films until he arrived in Luceti. To go about one's day to day life aware that one was in a game, it was difficult to really wrap his brain around.]
averybadfeeling: (Ponder)

[He didn't seem like a villain... he had a bit of a temper, perhaps. Still, hardly evil by any means.]

"... perhaps less so than it would have been, once, but that's a bit of a long story. Do you know anything about the world outside of your games?"
averybadfeeling: (Are you certain?)

"I see. Well, most of us live outside the games. This world is similar to that, with the games being contained elements within our worlds. In essence, I suppose, we're more like the customers than we are your fellow..."

[He stops for a minute. What term was appropriate?]

"Characters?"

"There are no mortgages here, the Malnosso provided the buildings free of charge. I suppose they felt that charging rent in addition to holding us prisoner was a bit too sadistic. In my original home, I was a member of the Jedi Order, and they paid for my lodgings when necessary, as the Jedi do not traditionally own property."

"You could say we are. And... I suppose you would say we were 'good guys,' yes. We protected the galaxy from attack and attempted to prevent wars.

I'm not certain we have anything analogous to medals, however. We have no currency of any kind. We mostly operate on the honor system- take only our own property and the food we need. Most do work only as a hobby or out of a desire to be helpful."

[Obi-Wan stops outside of the clothing store.]

"Here you are. Your clothing should be inside."
