dont go


come back safe

what if you disappear again

thanks for the heads up

[Yeah just ignore the deleted texts he didn't send.]

[shiro2hero]

[Dammit Keith--]

You all right?

[whatsacactus]

yeah

ill go exploring or something

[shiro2hero]

Uh huh.




I think I'll have to leave Kuro behind. He's a bruiser, but against ghosts, he can't do much.

Think you can keep an eye on him for me?

1/2

[whatsacactus]

[He can practically sense Shiro using this to keep him in one place. It's enough to almost annoy him. Almost. Luckily, it's Shiro and he'd do anything Shiro asks.]

sure i'll wacppppppppppphhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[whatsacactus]

litten

ill watch him for you

[shiro2hero]

Hey Litten.

[He wasn't thinking of it that way -- he'd figured putting his trusted Aggron in Keith's hands would help him feel better about ... whatever it is he's short about.]

Thank you.

He... means a lot to me. So you keeping an eye on him is important.

[whatsacactus]

[Damn it, Shiro. Getting all sincere.]

i will

anything i should know

[shiro2hero]

[Nailed it.]

He's pretty calm, for an Aggron. I think the only pokemon here he doesn't care for is Blitz, but they avoid each other well enough.

... he also eats metal. So if you see him chewing on a hubcap? Don't worry.

[whatsacactus]

ill

make sure it doesnt belong to anyone ?

just

come back

okay ?

[shiro2hero]

He's pretty good about it, now. When he was younger, he'd latch onto my arm and lick it.


Hey, it's me. I'm just going to the mainland, and letting Haunter fight a gym. I'll be back within a week.

[whatsacactus]

[Like you were going to be back in a year. He stares at his gear and takes a deep breath. No gut reaction. Don't react like that, Shiro doesn't need that.

Instead, he sends over a picture of Litten and Vulpix sitting with Honedge. They'll keep him company with Kuro.]

good luck shiro

[shiro2hero]

[He's still not sure what he's missing, here. He'd figured giving a heads up would have helped. Being able to contact each other if necessary would help. But -- it's still not all right. Is it?]

[The quiet before the photo speaks volumes.]

Great photo. I'll send you some too, while I'm out.


Thanks, Keith.
