[you want to know what kind of day Neku is having? it's a winner for sure. everything's back to normal, at least, even though now he's all the way back in Violet UNLESS I'M WRONG, P4 FOLK? (unsure) and he hates Violet so much.

and now? Chie went to get her Pokémon healed hours ago. and she didn't come back. so Neku did some investigating a la asking the Joys where on earth his best bro ever has gone off to, and the Joys are less than helpful. because, well, Chie is gone.


it takes him a decently long time to bring himself to pull out the 'gear and click on the audio. he sounds, justifiably, less than happy. just saying it takes a lot of effort, because Neku is a lot more attached to everyone he's met here than he gives himself credit for.]

....

Chie's gone.

[there is about a minute and a half of silence, then some shuffling as he presumably reaches over and vaguely shifts around her backpack. there is a Pokéball in here he intends to keep b-but not because he likes it or anything.]

Her stuff's here still. So. Yeah.

[another pause, but shorter this time.] ... I'll be around, I guess. Whenever it's time to get out of this town.

[aaaand click.]

ooc; tags will be slow when I run away to class in a wee bit

[ Rise's been resettling, and she hasn't quite had the time to see all of the team, but at Neku's message, she freezes up. No... the whole team was almost together again, she can't be gone--

She can't even do an audio reply, because it would just be silence. But hey, guess what, Neku?

Someone is heading out to look for you. ]

[Neku is doing his best to sulk quietly and not draw attention to himself in the Pokémon Center, because he reeeeally doesn't think he wants to talk to too many people right now.

Rise, though, is one of the exceptions. for, you know, an assortment of obvious reasons.

in any case: he is sulking.]

[ For once, she won't... draw attention to him by running in and yelling "NEKUUUUU", but within a few minutes, she's coming to a halt in front of him. ]

[Guess who got super lost during the missingno shenanigans and also ended up in Violet conveniently in time for the festivities?

YEP. BEAT.

And he could tell Neku was getting really close with Chie so this... awkward.]

You all right, Phones? Where you at?

awkward is a good word for it.]

I'm in the Pokemon Center. I'm- fine.
