LOL GO, PLANET

"By your powers combined, I am....wait, what?"

Mickey coughs theatrically. "'What is your name?'"

Captain Planet looks around, a grin on his face. Ahaaa...these guys were funny. He was going to go along with this, it sounded like fun.

"Well, I'm Captain Planet. I like long walks on the beach, and..."

"What is your quest?" asks the Cat. It's perched, suddenly, on the roof of one of the gate-stiles.

"My quest? To save the environment, and aid the Planeteers in their quest to improve state of the environment..." though now that he thought of it, looking around, he didn't see much...damage here. Something looked a little odd about that sky, though.

"'What is the average w..?'" Mickey frowns down at the notebook. "You know, I don't really see why that's important." He flips a page. "'If you could be granted three wishes, what would they be?'"
"Or," the Cat says, examining its tail with interest, "if you were a genie and someone you were trying to give three wishes to was trying to trick you into giving him more, what would you say?"

"Well, I really wish that Verminous Skumm would take a bath, but I'm also slightly afraid to see what that would do to our water," Planet laughs, scratching his head. "Seriously, I don't know what I'd wish for besides for people to just care a little bit and at least use flourescent lightbulbs--it'd also help if trash went in the...y'know, trash bin. Though I think Hoggish Greedly is hogging all the space in them at this time."

Mickey looks rather nonplused at the next, but reads, "'When the revolution comes, what skills will you be able to barter for food?'"

"Skills? Gee, I don't know if I really have any of those...I can do this, though!" and he turns and zaps some snow with his hand, melting it into a large puddle before blowing on it to freeze it into solid ice. And now that he thought of it, that was probably a bit of a health hazard, so repeating the process and adding a bit of windpower, he directs his attention to creating an ice sculpture of a giant heart instead.

The Cat rolls its eyes in a friendly (and rather disconcertingly out-of-sync) way, and asks, "Milk, dark, or white chocolate?"

Still sculpting his iced heart, he calls to the cat, "Oooh, white, please! But I'll take either, really--I don't like being a chocolate racist..."

"'Choose the two coolest: robots, pirates, fairies, bears, ninjas, monkeys, vampires, or humans,'" says Mickey, giggling a bit as he goes through the list. "'Explain.'"

He steps back from the giant block of ice now. He admires his work for a moment or two before turning back to the large cat and mouse and answers, "Definitely not robots, unless they helped plant trees. I think humans and monkeys work well together when picking up garbage and recycling, anyway."

"Great!" Mickey flips through the blank pages of the notebook at top, cartoon-y speed. "Well, I think that's just about it! Oh, and I'm supposed to ask, 'for your safety: are you carrying anything sharp?'"
Captain Planet laughs while he watches the mouse flip through the pages. He's tempted to do it himself, but alas, he has no book to do so with. He tilts his head to the side and smiles at the final question, saying, "No, though I would argue that I'm a pretty sharp dresser." and with that, he puts his hands on his hips and shows off his flashy outfit...which isn't much different from his usual shorts, boots, and half-shirt.

But somehow? This was seeming like less of a joke, no matter how more ridiculous it was becoming...

((And this, ladies and gentlemen, is Captain Planet, taken from...err...Captain Planet and the Planeteers, anyway. 'SUP?))

Like those before him, Setsuna, also, can only stare and gape.

"Err...are you for real?" Honestly. Captain Planet? Spouting save the world crap at them? This wasn't some Disneyland joke?

"Gee, I sure am popular today!" Captain Planet said as he turned around to face Setsuna as well.

Though smirking a little, and patting himself all over, he replied, "Well, I think I'm real. This isn't one of those quantum physics tests, is it? You know those ones where something only exists because you believe it's there?"

This brought on nervous laughs from the blond. Was this really real? Well, aside from Captain Planet thinking he was real.

"Look, don't bother with the save the Earth stuff here. We still haven't figured out how this place runs and that...it just.... Forget it." This was a lost cause, wasn't it?

"And why's that? I'd think it's good to be in the habit of doing that everywhere," Captain Planet protested, but as he did so, he started looking around him again. This place seemed oddly...clean.

Peculiar!

For a moment, Setsuna just stared at Captain Planet, exasperated, but eventually his mouth plowed forward with the explanation of, "Because you can't recycle stuff here. We have no idea where the trash goes, but the place cleans itself. We don't know where the electricity goes, and we're not paying bills for it so we can't track down the location of it. There aren't many trees to cut down, and we're not gonna bother trying when none of us have an ax. We don't have cars to drive, so we're not polluting the air with them. We dump harmful stuff in the lake, especially since we all bathe in there, and I doubt the place would let us since it protects the ducks. Also...no animals but some ducks and random pets people bring along with them. There's also no war, we're all practically at peace in harmony. This is the one place you will have absolutely fucking nothing to do."

Now that Setsuna thought it over...wasn't it just disgusting how...nearly perfect this place was? Was that part of why it was so creepy?

Captain Planet was absolutely speechless. He honestly couldn't even begin to think of a reason why...or HOW a place like that could function. On the plus side, it meant the environment here was...well, safe!

On the other hand, what the hell was going on?

"Welllll....I'm sure my talents could be...used for something else?" he slowly offered, now looking rather uncomfortable at everything.

((lol, funnily enough, he's got nothing to do either way XD;; I talked to a mod before apping and was told that the "air was smoggy and the waters murky" but when cleaned, they go back to being polluted like the ground goes from being polluted to clean.))

"Well...the lake water is murky," Setsuna admitted with a shrug. But why did he have a feeling trying to clean it would be as pointless as trying to dirty anything else.

"Maybe you can clean that up for the ducks?"

[*snicker* This should be fun. XD I almost feel sorry for him. Welcome to the most boring place on earth for a peace-keeping environmentalist superhero. XD]

"I'll definitely have to look into that. It can't be the most comfortable place for the ducks, that's for sure." He then outstretched his hand toward Setsuna and said, "Thank you for letting me know of this, Mr....wait, who are you, again?"

((Oh, it should be only TOO MUCH fun XD;;;))

"Name's Setsuna. Drop the Mister stuff," Setsuna said, staring at the outstretched hand perplexed. What was that again? Some strange Western formality, right?

"Out with the Mister stuff and in with the Setsuna stuff? Sounds alright to me," he said, and suspended in the air yet his hand stayed. This young man certainly was an interesting one!

Absently, Setsuna nodded his head and said, "Yeah," while still staring at the hand, and finally inspecting it closely. "You want me to see something, or what?"

Captain Planet gave a small, amused smile at this, and said, "I...don't think so. Usually one shakes hands with another in greeting, though."

He couldn't help but look at his own hand just in case, though. "But...there isn't anything on it, is there?"

He couldn't help himself, the temptation itched at his mouth. So much time spent with Kira and Katou had, naturally, rubbed off on him, and whether it was someone so naive as Captain Planet, or maybe just because it was him, Setsuna pointed to the back of his hand and said, "Yeah. There's a little sign that says 'fuck me.' I don't know what that's supposed to be about. I think I'll avoid this shaking hands ritual for now, though."

"Wait, what?!" Well, no wonder Setsuna wouldn't shake hands with him....wait, there was nothing there. He looked back up at Setsuna with a sheepish grin.

"Ho ho, you're a funny guy, you know that?" he said, though perhaps only half-amused.

Setsuna, on the other hand, was very amused, and kept snickering. "I can't believe you fail for that...."

Oh well, Captain Planet was at least being a good sport about. This time, Setsuna went to shake his hand and said, "Welcome to Disneyland anyway. Hope you can have some sort of fun here. Maybe consider this is a vacation."

He couldn't help but smile now, and he took Setsuna's hand and replied, "Alright...I think I'll end up staying here a bit if I can't figure out how to clean some of this place up, anyway. It's really strange."

"Well uh...." Setsuna shook, and once he had his hand back he asked, curiously, "Has anyone explained this place to you?" It didn't sound like it if this guy thought he could just leave.

"I was told I couldn't walk out, but no one's mentioned anything about being able to fly out--I intend to once I clean up some things around here, like that lake you mentioned," was all the good Captain replied with a confident smile on his face.

"You can't fly beyond a certain height. Can't dig out, either," Setsuna informed Captain Planet. "Tell me how the lake cleaning goes, could you?" Setsuna asked, suddenly curious what bathing in a nice clean lake would be like.

"Are you serious? If that's the case, I'm never getting out of here..." he tilted his head to the side slightly, feeling defeated finally, "And yeah, I'll be sure to do that, I guess. I need to do something while I'm here, huh?"

"Well, that's how we all feel," Setsuna said, putting a hand out to pat Captain Planet's shoulder with sympathy. "If you find a way out on your quest to clean this place up, also let me know. I'd appreciate that."
