[here's marui at the violet inn lobby, seated comfortably on a couch. his munchlax is sitting next to him, slowly devouring a bowl of fruit. marui, meanwhile, is sending a video message to someone.]

--gotten the Zephyr badge and Jackal and I are making our way through Union Cave soon to get to Azalea for my next badge. We'll be back in Goldenrod soon, Yukimura-kun! Tell Sanada we're working hard and keeping up with our training.

[he finishes this message and hits the send button. after this, he records another video message.]

Hey Sisuca! Look, I got my first badge! [he brings the badge up with his free hand to show her.] I've got a long way to go to catch up to you, but I'll definitely make it! Let's have cake to celebrate, okay?

[now that this message is done, he'll send it to sisuca--]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[marui frowns. that's... not supposed to happen. so he tries to send it again.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[and again.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[and again. this time, he accidentally broadcasts his recorded video to the whole network too.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[shit. marui looks worried. and very sad. he takes a deep breath, eyes closed and pinches the bridge of his nose-- boys don't cry after all.]

[the video feed ends there, but anyone at the inn would find a redhead sitting at the lobby, holding a munchlax like a teddy bear, with his 'Gear on the other side of the couch, just staring off into space.]

ooc; badge is mod-approved!

Nah - it's a pretty normal thing, I'm willin' ta bet. [Offering a reassuring smile.] This place is pretty unpredictable and all. Ya go makin' friends and then ya don't know if and when you'll see 'em again...

[It's kind of like war, in that way, he thinks. You go into battle with someone, and there's always that chance someone important to you just won't come back. His smile fades a bit at thought for a moment.]

I can't help but feel horrible, though. [he sighs.] Do you think she'll remember me, back in her world?

[He leans back in his seat, looking up at the ceiling.] Tough ta say. I'm not really sure how any of that stuff works.
