35th moon [video]

It appears I'll have to watch more than one pair of my Pokémon closely, from now on.

[In the foreground, four Swablu eggs, resting on handmade pillows. In the background, one Altaria and one Dragonite, arguing as ever. In the middle, one Cecil Harvey, sighing.]

The eggs will hatch into Swablus, and I sell them for P1500. If you add in P100, you'll even receive a handmade self-warming egg pillow. To those of you who bought some from me previously, I assure you that the stitches are even, this time.

[The argument in the background becomes louder and louder as he speaks. Another sigh from him.]

...A nice, peaceful vacation in Mahogany or Blackthorn sounds better and better by the minute, I swear.

[[ooc: All the eggs have been given away in an OOC post!]]

Three weeks is a very good start. Some manage to disappear even before that.

But.... don't they return home?

They do, but they usually do so by abandoning new friends. If we are to stay here for some time, is it not better to stay long enough to build strong friendships?

I had thought of that... but at the same time, it would be unlike me to not wish to make friends at least.

Its true that someday I will be returned to my own world, but until then I wish to do what I can for the friends I have now.

It'd be nice if we could all find a way to communicate between worlds before we leave. It'd allow us to return home while still keeping in contact with everyone we meet here.

[ Becomes quiet for a moment before answering. ]

Or allow us to keep our memories of this place at least.

...That, too. Too many people leave and return with no memories of this world. It tends to upset their remaining Pokémon.

[ Thinking of her Mister Pink now. It would probably devastate him. ]

It is a sad truth, isn't it? You can return home, but the exchange is too much.

...It might be a sad thing to say, but for my son's sake, even that price would be acceptable to pay.

You have son, Cecil?

[ It must be even more difficult for him to be here away from his family then. ]

I do. We were travelling together when I found myself here, yet he did not follow.

[There's not a single day where he does not regret that.]

I am sorry to hear that. You probably miss him...

I do. But there's always a chance he might find himself here. Stranger has happened.

That is true, and I hope someday you do.

Thank you. Should I also hope for the arrival of people from your world?

[ Shakes her head. ] No.

Are your loved ones already present, or would you rather see them at home instead?

I believe he will be happier at home and helping people...

I miss him and want to see him, but I want him to be happy.

Would he not also be happy to be with you?

I...

[ Pause. ] I would like to believe so.

He might be glad to find himself here, then.

[ She smiles but doesn't say anything at first. ]

I shouldn't bother you for long.

I'm surprisingly hard to bother, actually. But far be it from me to monopolize a lady's time.

[ Shaking her head. ]

I enjoyed very much talking to you. I have learned a lot.

For that, I really thank you.

You're welcome. I've no doubt you'll have the chance to learn much more about this world about the next few weeks.
