33 [Action/Video]

[mischiefbreeder]

[It was a fairly typical day in Luceti. The weather was starting to improve. Not by much yet, but it was improving. The snow had been starting to melt, it's steadily getting warmer...

...And people were starting to arrive in Luceti again. New faces, old faces, even long-forgotten faces. And on this particular day, it's the second of these that can be spotted passing through the village, as a boy with messy black hair in New Feather garb floats through the plaza seated atop... a strange flying white bird?]

Doesn't look like this place's changed a bit, huh, Togetaro? ...Oh, right, I guess you wouldn't know. Well, whatever! Come on, onward, in that direction! [He gives a forceful point in the direction of the shops. His memories were a bit fuzzy, but he thankfully remembered enough to know how to get back to the village and get his stuff.]

[After retrieving his things, Gold decides to hit up the journal.]

So, how long was I gone from this place? And you guys better not've given away my room, you hear me?

In the flesh! [He couldn't be kept away for long.]

[aspertia]

Thank goodness! So many people from our world have been leaving and everyone thought you were gone for real and-

[ she's so goddamn happy that she can't hold it in... but that suddenly turns to an angry tone. ]

Promise that you'll never do that again! Everyone was worried sick, you know!

[mischiefbreeder]

[Wow... She's really upset by this...]

It's not like I'd chosen to go back home. It kinda just happened.

video;

[aspertia]

Yeah, well... Still! The last thing we need is more people disappearing without a trace!

[ yeah, there's absolutely nothing rational about this. she's just upset and ranting. ]

[mischiefbreeder]

Alright, alright! I won't leave again.

[aspertia]

Good. [ she smiles, though she's still a little unsure... hopefully the uneasiness will go away soon. ]

You went home, right? Did anything happen?

video;

[mischiefbreeder]

Nah, no biggie! Just savin' Arceus from the dastardly hands of Team Rocket, that's all!

[aspertia]

[ D: ]

You did what? How?!

video;

[mischiefbreeder]

By doin' what comes naturally to me, of course!

video;

[aspertia]

That's just like saying nothing! [ pout! ] Give me details! You can't just say something like that and not follow up with a story!

video;

[mischiefbreeder]

I dunno... Are you sure you can handle the truth?

video;

[aspertia]

Of course I can! I saved Unova from being taken over by Team Plasma, you know. I can handle any story you have!

video;

[mischiefbreeder]

Alright... What if I told you I was on a mission to help Arceus?

video;

[aspertia]

...I'd believe you. [ although it wasn't really an "official" mission, she did end up saving Kyurem from Team Plasma's abuse, so she understands. but still... Arceus. she's heard the myths time and time again. ]

How did that happen?

video;

[mischiefbreeder]

I was tasked with this important mission by the legendary trainer, Lance, himself! After all, I was the one most suited for the job. [He has no idea if Mei even knows who Lance is, but honestly he's kind of hoping she doesn't.]

[aspertia]

The Lance? The champion of the Johto League?

[ (un?)fortunately, she does. he was in the same bracket as her in the Champions Tournament at the PWT, but they never battled. still, like all of the other Champions, she knew them by name. ]

[mischiefbreeder]

[Champion? Was he champion? He didn't know. Oh well, let's just play along.]

You got it!
