This thing sure is, uh, fancy.

[ Magnus sticks a finger out at the phone's screen, tapping the glass and knocking the image out of focus for just a second. However, he quickly realizes he’s made a mistake and fixes the camera focus accordingly. ]

Sorry, I’m just not used to this kinda stuff. I think my fingers are too big for this thing... But I’ll figure it out quick! Anyway, hi, I’m Magnus, and… Well, I guess I’d be lying if I said I was completely happy to be here — [ His face looks as if he’s guilty to be saying this, but it almost instantly lights back up. ] — But I’ll make the most of it while I’m here! Y’know, I’m always happy to make new friends. Just let me know if you need, uh, a chair, or a bed, or a bodyguard or something!

[ He reaches forward to turn off the camera, but pauses, quizzical. He retracts his hand. ]

You should also let me know if you have a dog that I might be able to pet. …I hope dogs exist here.

[ The camera shuts down with the press of a button. ]

I gotta say, I'm suuuper jealous. I'm not exactly in a place right now where I can have a pet, but I'd LOVE to have a fire horse.

There's all sorts of creatures like him outside in the forest. They're called Pokemon. They came through the portal. Most are friendly enough.

[He'd already started making friends with the Ponyta when circumstances had forced Ivar to find a way to capture him instead.]

Technically, I don't have enough space for him either. Lucky for me he fits inside this little ball I was given when I need to put him someplace.

[He holds up the red and white Pokeball in his pocket, tapping the center to make it grow larger.]

[ohhmrburnsides]

Oh, I guess it's like a bag of holding, but in a little ball instead. I get it. ... Where can I get one of those? The ball, I mean.

[If he can get a hold of something like that, maybe he could keep a pet... But still, he's concerned.]

Is it humane keeping that big ol' horse in that little thing? I mean I know it's bigger on the inside, but is it happy in there?

[ragnarsson]

The Pokemon Professor has some. His name is Sycamore, you can find him at the university here.

[Ivar should really go to more of his classes to get a better grasp of how to train his strange creatures.]

From what I've been told, it's like there's a field inside there for them to live in. Neither of mine seem to mind. And if they didn't like it, trust me, they would have let me know by now.

[He turns to look at Skinfaxi.] Do you mind living in there? [The Pokemon seems to consider this for a moment, cocking his head as he thinks. Then he shakes his head no with a snort. Ivar turns back to look at his phone.] There's your answer.

[ohhmrburnsides]

Professor Sycamore at the university. Got it. I'll be sure to hit him up.

[He addresses Skinfaxi in the same manner that Ivar does:] I'm glad it's comfy for you in there. Thank you for your input, most noble horse friend.

[ragnarsson]

[Skinfaxi nods his head up and down in a pleased fashion, blinking his little diamond shaped eyes. Ivar runs a hand through his flaming mane.]

If you see me around, don't hesitate to ask to see them.
