Re: 003; voice/action for Saffron

[a certain kid on the network this evening has, having stayed mostly quiet except to catch up with friends after that train disaster, finally decided to pipe up-- to ask something those who know him probably... would not expect for him to ask.]

[there is a good reason for it, though.]

I know that the point of traveling around this world is to work with and learn about Pokémon, but... does anybody else besides me miss going to school?

[because studying somehow seems like a plausible method to recapturing and hanging on to whatever vagrant memories he might not know about, of course. that supposed brain fart about Hollow Bastion a week ago was enough to really rattle his confidence.]

[Saffron Pokécenter visitors might spot this studious teen situated in a quiet corner, a large notebook open across his lap. whether he's scrawling out notes or a hilariously bad drawing, it's hard to tell at a passing glance.]

Y-Yeah. They've been here. [oh god... letters sounds like a good, yet bad idea sob--]

That's all you need to do, then! Write them a letter and put it in a bottle in the ocean. That way you can keep in touch.

[yes, he's quite serious. Sora's going to single-handedly advise the people of Johto and Kanto to pollute their waters.]

[is this kid for real? Well-- he doesn't want to completely kill the idea.] I'll... keep that in mind.

Good! It's kind of a good way to remind yourself that you're all connected no matter what, too.

[voice]

[craftingrebel]

Y-Yeah... guess so.

[Sora kind of gets the feeling that maybe this person on the other line has lost someone recently, judging by that response-- he never really got over the sting of coming back and not being able to see Kairi, so he can empathize.]

[he won't mention it, though.]

Anyway, we could always set up a school here or something-- you know anybody who might make a good teacher?

[there is a pregnant pause as he shuffles around awkwardly.] My-- my uhh... my friend was thinking about starting one up. But she.... she left before she could do anything about it.

[voice]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

... Oh-- geez, I'm so sorry.

Maybe we could get one together in case she comes back?

[voice]

[craftingrebel]

It's fine.
