[ When the feed comes on, Tony is sitting at a chair. He obviously has the camera resting on a table in front of him. He looks lost in thought and is looking off to the top right of the camera in the middle distance, it looks like he's been thinking very hard. After a few moments he licks his lips slowly.]

So, it looks like that I'm not as prepared for everything as I think.

I've made mistakes here. But that's not really new, I've always been a bit of a mess so really that's a statement that shouldn't really surprise anyone, I've never really been perfect, my track record alone really shows that, and even all my character defaults...

[He runs his hand over his lower jaw. while he takes a breath, realising he was going off track.]

I haven't been taking this place seriously. And it nearly cost someone their life, because I wasn't fast enough. So what I'm trying to say here is that. Well, I have to try harder, this.

[He fidgets with his hands]

This isn't a holiday, or a resort, so tell me... What's the best way to take on the gym leaders around here?

[Tony's been trying to post this for days, there have been a few moments where he's started recording only to turn it off again. So he's feeling kind of proud he was able to be more him than his persona to the public for once.]

You called an AI... "The Captain"? And you're worried why it's difficult to work with? That's.... Huh.

You assumed I named him. If I did, I would have given him something else, but the academy decided that as a learning aid, he needed something... catchy.

Alliterative. I preferred something more respectable.

Captain isn't catchy. Just makes people think of the sea. Is this academy a legit thing? Or are they just a bunch of people who just 'know better'?

The Academy is a science and research group working to better the lives of people after several catastrophes had threatened civilization and prevent yet another once from coming to pass.

[He is going to ignore your slight on his baby, thanks.]

Yeah, doesn't mean they're any good at naming things. Let me guess, they do a lot of wirk with focus groups?

There are no focus groups. Everyone had been reeling from the Day of Ragnarok and struggling to get on with their lives. [His own family included.] The world had nearly been destroyed and almost everything people had known before that time was gone, save for themselves.

The Academy had been founded a year after that, and began working on ways to help all the survivors.

Huh, so. Hit a nerve. That was easier than I thought, not that it was on purpose.

You do know that I'm not disputing what they do outside of naming, right?

Whatever we do, it's honestly none of your business.

[Yeah he's... done here. So he's cutting the connection.]
