((OOC: General warning for angst, discussion of death, and spoilers for volume 3 of RWBY))

Has anyone figured out how to- I mean. I know a lot of people just want to get rid of them, but has anyone found a way to help them?

[No points for guessing who the 'them' is, given the week's events. Especially considering that the redheaded girl visible behind Penny in her broadcast is just a shade more transparent than usual for someone with a heartbeat.]

[Penny looks tired.]

I thought maybe they were sort of like us? People that were coming here from other worlds, but something went wrong and-

[She glances over her shoulder at the ghost that's been haunting her for the last few days.]

...Her name was- is Pyrrha Nikos. I didn't really know her myself, we just- met. Once.

[Penny swallows, turning back to the camera, eyes downcast.]

But I know she doesn't deserve whatever this is. If anyone knows anything, please- I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

[Video] [Action for Goldenrod Pokemon Center]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[The feed clicks on and for once Henry isn't in some kind of blind, paranoid panic. In fact, he seems...happy. Chipper almost. The soft glow of the Goldenrod Pokemon Center can be seen behind him. Night time has fallen on the golden town and people are shuffling into the center to take shelter on their travels. It's free and hey, there's free coffee! So long as you don't mind sleeping on what amount to airport seats.]

[And there's something else about him--the man is wearing scrubs with Litwicks all over them. That's right! Mr. Starving Artist himself has finally gotten a real job. But that is not what this broadcast is about.]</sub>

Oh! Before I forget--I wanted to let everyone know that I'm still doing Pokemon portraits. With these new warp pads, you can come here to Goldenrod or I can come to you--to most cities in Johto anyway. It's 1000P for an eight by eleven glossy. 700P for three wallet size. If you don't want prints, I can send you a large digital copy for 500P. I have props, a background, lights, all of that.

If you're interested, let me know!

_{[Throughout the night, Henry can be found in the center handing out coffee and blankets to those staying the night as well as working behind the desk entering data for arriving patients.]}
