[She's... actually not galloping at breakneck speed, unlike when she's called everyone else. Her hair is still back in a messy ponytail, and her hitai-ate is nowhere to be seen, but she's at least only trotting along on Pyre now, her 'gear bobbing in front of her in Feng's talons.]

Hey. Just wanted to let you know that I'll be late to Olivine. Did you see that dark-haired guy with the red bandana broadcast his stupid challenge earlier? That's Seventeen, a... [she scrunches up her face] friend, kind of. Anyway, I have to go rescue him. Joonhee-niisan's letting me borrow Yoonjae, and your cousin's going to fly her and Lightning-san's Fly HM to me so I can go grab him.

I was almost there, too.

[beforethedarkness]

Easier if you borrow Riku's pokémon for that. He'd let you if he knew why.

[Sigh, it's that moron? Of course...]

Tell Lightning what you're doing.

Sasuke... has Naruto attempted to contact you in the last 24 hours?

A timely reply would be appreciated.

Hey. Sasuke.

Your friends took off.

naruto decided to try and come see me and shino followed him

You've hung up on me like ten times, you know.

Hey Sasuke! How's it all going in secluded quiet wherever you're hiding? I was

STUPID SEND KEY!

Anyway, I was wondering if you had any pointers for making a Riolu happy so it'll evolve. If Hogarth evolved he'd be great against Whitney! And I remember one hiding behind your poofy hair at Foofyku's party so...

Yeah, that's all. :)

[It's been over a week of the great showdown with Bowser. Ren hadn't really talked about it with anyone afterwards - even if he was there to witness the aftermath. He wasn't as involved with fighting Bowser as everyone else was, after all.

Still, there were things that bothered him a little. The atmosphere around the house recently and one of the kids' behavior. Ren wasn't really the type to worry about (almost) strangers, but... hey he knew how it felt to be chased by Team Rocket. And maybe he'd have some useful to say to the kid - who knew.

So there he was, outside Sasuke's room. He knocked.]

It's Ren. Do you have a minute?

[beforethedarkness]

[That's not Obito. He's a little tense and surprised from the company, but what does Ren want?

For a few long seconds he doesn't answer, shifting to sit up on his bed and put the gear away - having been looking over the messages from his conversation with Riku the other day - before he finally responds.]

It's open.

Hey.

Can I come talk to you?

Hey Sasuke, I saw you earlier here, in this town. Then I said to myself--[She shifts her body to the other screen.]

'Hey? Isn't that Sasuke?' And I'm like--[Pinkie shifts her body back to the other side.] 'Oh Celest, yes!' Isn't it great?

We should hang out while we're still here.

[Voice]

[beforethedarkness]

I don't want to hang out.

[It's a late reply, and he sounds quiet - not quite as serious as he was, and more dejected than anything else.]

Sasukeeeee!

Where are you, I haven't seen you for like. A whole day or something.

[usedswift]

Are you going to make me be like Naruto to get to talk to you, or can you spare a minute with the first text?

That sky you've been watching isn't going anywhere, believe me.

[It's been a few days--honestly he can't be surprised by this now. Not after who arrived and what she knows of him.]

Status?

[text | locked]

[beforethedarkness]

[Staring at this because... What does she want him to say? He doesn't know. In fact, he's never felt more -- He doesn't even know what to call it, or even come close to realize that the word he's looking for is lost -- in his life.

It takes a while, but Lightning does eventually get a response.]

I'm in Olivine. Nothing to report.

[Unfortunately, that doesn't mean said response will be helpful.]

I'm super super super crazy intensely majorly sorry I'm late! I only intended to check on some stuff and ended up getting sidetracked, then Val was in town then after she left I was going to come and SENSEI and then that happened and Kushina-nee kept me longer but I'm here now!!!

Sasukeeeee? Tenten told me where the hotel was when she cleared out but you're not here. I'll wait but you are coming back right?

[TEXT | locked] backdated May 1

[usedswift]

Evan and I are going for badges.

I'm just a call away if you need me. For anything at all.

[TEXT | locked] backdated May 1 [2/2]

[usedswift]

By the way, Obito's there now.

I told him where the hotel is, so he should be by later.

If you leave Olivine, can you just let me know? Thanks.

text | locked; backdated to May 5th because you know you want it

[jikogisei]

I'm leaving Goldenrod tomorrow. If you have any further questions, text me.

text | locked; May 6th. No. No I don't. But I'll reply because you texted, idiot. /tsuns

[beforethedarkness]

[He's stiff when he gets this, frowning at it. He almost doesn't respond, but he can't ignore it either.]

Do what you want. I don't care.

[Sasuke that's a lie and you know it...]

video; private; May 3rd; sorry in advance

[believeit]

Hey, Sasuke. Haven't heard from you in days after that other talk we had, you ok?

video; private; May 3rd; actually not sorry at all

[believeit]

Sasuke.......? SASU-KEEEEEEE.....

Text - Because Sasuke needs more pestering.

[for_realsies]

Hey Sasuke you have any pointers for how to take on Jasmine? Have you taken on Jasmine? Do you know what her exact roster is like? What moves she likes to use? I'm trying to decide how to go about this and most of my research was for Morty but we're in Olivine right now.

When I get my badge what sorta jewelry should I make it into?

2/2 - Text

[for_realsies]

Hey where are you anyway?

message!

[heartdive]

I know you're probably not in the bestest of moods ( really... when are you in a good mood? ) but I thought I'd leave a message just to remind you that I'm around. You know. For stuff.

Any kind of stuff. Like I should show you how to surf sometime stuff.

[Locked Video]

[beforethedarkness]

[Believe it or not there are rare times when Sasuke is in a good mood.

Sora's right in assuming that this isn't one of them, though.

Eventually he sighs and turns on the feed, in his inn room with somewhat relaxing music playing in the background.]

I don't know when I'll be going back that way. I need some time to figure things out.

[Well that's a shock. It hasn't been unheard of for people to disappear right away, but somehow he hadn't been expecting it.

That... Shakes him. He's going to have to make up his mind, and soon...]

Which way are you going then

[ Now that things have begun to settle down in Violet City, Sakura has the opportunity to send him a message. Having discovered what it was he left for her, along with the note, has left her a bit softer than a kunoichi ought to be. ]

Thank you, Sasuke.
I didn't get the chance to say it before.
He's warm.
I've never seen a fire type Pokemon before, so that took me by surprise.

[ Honestly, it reminds her of something back home, but even she's not bold enough to bring that up now. ]

Have you figured what you'd like to do?
I don't intend to pressure you, but I'm curious for your well-being.
Watching over the two of you at different times is a lot of work, but I don't mind it.

Right now I'm going to keep collecting badges. I don't want to see any of you again yet. I'll tell you when I do.

Is Hiruzen behaving for you?

Shino. Be careful if you see Yumi and she's acting strangely. There's a fake running around and she can use raiton.

Hey, Sasuke.

[In the background are the Seafoam Islands from quite a considerable distance above the ground. The reason? She's seated triumphantly atop a Dragonair's head, though her expression looks a little forced.]

Finally caught that Dragonair I've been looking for since I gave you that egg. You saw Neji arrived, right?

[VIDEO | locked, 6/22]

[beforethedarkness]

Tenten.

[He blinks at her, seeming to be on a boat HE'S ON A BOAT and travelling that way. Someone's on his way to Kanto, one way or another. The question is where he'll end up!

But, enough about that.]

Congratulations. The one you gave me evolved into Dragonite recently too.

[After a moment he'll add.]

I saw that he's here. What about him?
