[When the video feed first clicks on, there isn't much in the way of visuals except blackness, interspersed with the occasional flash of dull light. The sounds are much more fascinating than the sights, as it were: something is snuffling at the pokégear, and after a moment there's a series of sharp thunks, as if someone were rapping against the microphone. Something is trying to eat it.]

-- Hey! Knock it off! Look, there's food in the bag if you're hungry..

[The feed swings around wildly as Sora snatches away and tries to wipe the pokégear off on his jumpsuit, then stops abruptly as he turns it over in his hand and stares straight into the camera, his expression bewildered. This thing looks more high-tech than the lifts in Hollow Bastion.]

Okay, I'm.. not really sure what I was expecting, but the everlasting Darkness is weird.

... Seriously? Aw, geez..

[but he brightens up considerably- despite being almost two weeks apart, because it's actually Riku, Riku here, and he isn't swallowed by the Darkness. in a bizarre way, everything feels.. normal. his very own giraffe? that just sweetens the deal, normalcy or not.]

Anyway, I'll try and get there as soon as I can. Maybe if we meet halfway, it'll make things quicker.

[Oh Sora. Just wait until you see some of the other Pokemans. Giraffes are just the beginning!]

That sounds good! Where should we meet? Pretty sure Puddles didn't eat the map, at least.

We could meet halfway to Violet City. It takes three days to get to Cherrygrove and another week to reach Violet, so I guess we could meet up on one of the routes.

Right! I'll start walking, then.

[running, actually. hopefully Puddles will be able to keep up with him- and hopefully he figures out how to catch other pokémon along the way.]
