[So, primarily becauseTrip can be still be unexpectedly timid sometimes Trip's not keen on the idea of calling into a radio show, he's going to try and mention Ken instead... except he doesn't know his username either, so. It seems he'll have to ask around...]
T. @(ghostprince) posted: Does anyone know how to contact Ken from that radio show? Doesn't he have an account on here?

[The question's also one others might have answers too, so he'll make two posts about it, shortly after one another! They're publicpeep Pippi posts, so everyone else can see them too!]
T. @(ghostprince) posted: Do any of you other drifted have an Ultern in your world? Or a similar place, even if it's not called by the same name?
[The (very new and nearly empty?) account's not very helpful in identifying him, the profile picture is scenery, although Serperior's silhouette might vaguely be recognizable in it, the location is "who wants to know?" and the bio is just a link to his Mimmeo... it might look suspicious or creepy, but it's rather unintentional!
He's just keeping a low profile and not really much of a Pippi user. His linked Mimmeo is definitely more active, although there's long stretches of inactivity (whenever he gets drifted home—two images are years apart, both during Tanabata? One at the festival proper, another aa cafe, enjoying a meal with a Yamask, it seems...), but it dates back at least three years, and has lots of photographs he's taken, although none are of himself. Just scenery, Pokemon (his own Unovan Pokemon and Ulternian ones he's seen, wild and trained), and quite a few of cafe desserts, and, more recently, and clumsy/modest attempts at cooking.]

[He types that, while deep in thought about said existential questions...]
[It's always Not His Brother]
T. @(ghostprince) replied: Sorry, this might be more of a personal question, but do you have any brothers in your world?
[Ken can't be another world's equivalent to Mr. Cilan, right? Or was this Trip's idea of a joke...]

DJ Ken@(chura_radio_ken) replied: I do have a brother, yes! He's the Nihon League Champion, and has told me about his visits to Southwest Islands! Why do you ask?
no subject
T. @(ghostprince) replied: Sorry, I was kidding. You reminded me of someone from back home, but he was a triplet. None were Champions, though. They were Gym Leaders.
I guess the way you talked about Pokemon reminded me of him, that's all.

DJ Ken@(chura_radio_ken) replied: I see! Sorry, I didn't get the joke. Well, if that person ever drifts here I'm sure we'd get along!

Who are you texting with?
[He calls basically every social media "texting" just to annoy people.]

I'm not texting, I'm peep—

... okwy, I just realized that doesn't sound right.
I was replying to Pippi posts! I was talking to that Ken you mentioned...
no subject
Oh, you're talking to Ken?
[Huh, come to think of it, Gold hasn't contacted Ken at all since he returned to Ultern. Maybe he should let him know he's back.
And maybe he should do it in the most chaotic way possible.
A split-second evil grin is all the warning you get, Trip, before Gold snatches your phone and runs off with it while typing.]
[Cuuute...]
[Trip's initially too stunned to react, as Gold swipes his phone and makes a run for it, but he's sokn jumping to his feet (falling off balance briefly, his back fortunately only hitting the bed), before giving chase!]
You give that back!
no subject
[Gold ducks under the table and tries to quickly type his message and send it, but he's still unfamiliar with smartphones so it takes a bit of searching. He's distracted enough Trip might just be able to catch him...]
[1/2; they're being such kids, it's adorable, pfft]
[... literally! He can't quite fit under there, not even bending down and swiping at him (why are his legs the only thing that seem to grow?!), so for a moment, he seems to give up, just standing there, thinking about how he'll have to actually crawl on the floor or, at least, get on top of the chair, then flatten himself to squeeze under the table—oh, but what's this? Gold stopped fleeing? He's just typing away?]
[2/2]
You're never supposed to turn your back on an enemy!
[^^]
[Gold manages to keep the phone from Trip's reach by sharply leaning to the side, but Trip manages to catch him by the shirt, which makes him lose his balance a little and end up sprawled on his side on the floor, dropping the phone, which slides just a bit too far for him to reach (but doesn't crack, fortunately.)]
Tch... Not so fast! Prepare for my ultimate attack!
[Time to flail about randomly and try to break free! (And also distract Trip from his phone.)
However, in the chaos, he did manage to send a peep. On the screen of the phone lying on the floor, this appears:]
T. @(ghostprince) replied: yo its brett i stolw thios gyus phone lmaowqehy7hiok39hiaj
2/2 whoop
...Brett? That's the nickname that Gold insisted on Ken calling him. Brett is back? And he stole the phone of the person Ken was talking with? What in the world...? Should he even respond to this? Or should he just phone Brett?]
[He's being unexpectedly scrappy, but I still feel like Gold could win this if he wanted to!]
[Okay, he is not a good fighter at all, so while he's hanging on as well as he can, trying to use both hands (and arms!) now, he'll take a glance at the phone. Can he reach it? Maybe not yet... can he scoot over and awww, man, that's definitely a peep sent from his account on-screen, isn't it?
While Gold's flailing around like mad, Trip's going to try and pin Gold's arms to his sides, can he get at least the one on the side closest to the phone down? Maybe he can then trap it under his leg (sorry, you're getting half-sat on!) and then lunge at the phone hopefully before Gold can scramble over once free! He won't hurt his friend to slow him down, it's not that serious! But he'll definitely try to use whatever means he can to restrain him! His reputation (well, largely anonymous, but...) is at stake!!]
[If Gold was aiming to win he'd go for dirty tricks, but his goal is to Be Difficult]
Well, time to keep flailing and squirming! If he ends up smacking Trip somewhere it's no big deal since he's not being very forceful about this, his only goal is to make it more difficult for Trip! If Trip tries to go for the phone again, Gold's grabbing an arm or a leg, whichever's closest!]
[I'm sure! ... Trip still manages to get (mildly) hurt, welp.]
[And there it goes, flying off, just as he leapt towards it—aaaand Gold's caught his ankle, so he falls ungracefully onto the floor, hands still out because he was trying to reach for the phone and failed to protect his face! At least he tried to curl in a bit when he realized he was going to slam into the floor, but he still hit the floor with an impressively loud SMACK.
He'll end up with a bruise forming on the side of his face that's still planted on the floor, but otherwise, he's good, just a bit stunned, blinking.]
