28th Recipe [Video. just outside Rock Tunnel]

[cyan_maid]

[When everything went weird, Jane had lost track of Alex, and she's been silent on the network while trying to track the other girl down. It's very possible, after all, that she got sent someplace quite far from Rock Tunnel and hadn't been deposited back. It's possible the tunnel has crap reception.

But when Jane finally emerges with the last member of her Bunnyquest list in hand (who is, by the way, the most ill-tempered Whismur that ever did exist), when she tries one more time to call Alex and the 'gear number isn't connected to anyone anymore...well, she has to accept the inevitable.]

Alex has gone home.

[Back to that - that island, and the ghosts, and the time loops...Jane lets out a defeated sigh, slumping against the outside rocks, her brow furrowed.]

...It's when these things happen that I think...why do I still keep the house around? Why don't I just shove off and travel, if there's no one to come home to? I guess...[She shakes her head.] I don't know. Maybe I keep it in case people return? In case they need a home when they get here, and not adventure all the time?

[Jane is quiet after that, looking out into the middle distance. It's warm out, cloudy but not overly so. There's a nice breeze that ruffles Jane's hair and makes the trees across the water rustle.]

Either way...I, uh, I'll show you all my new rabbity friends once I get back to Goldenrod. It might take me some time to get back there, I...I'd like to rest.

[Before she shuts the feed, Jane mutters to herself,] God dammit, I fucking hate Rock Tunnel...

...You know, maybe that's why Team Rocket calls themselves Team Rocket - they're trying to go into space to capture God.

[She's joking, it's literally just a dumb joke.]

[sassymaru]

[... sad thing is, that's logical for where he's from.]

You believe so?

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

Hoo, not really - I wouldn't want to give them ideas, it's just something silly to suppose.

[Video]

[sassymaru]

Only one way to be certain.

We must make it to the moon before they do.

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

Ah...I don't know if the average trainer has the means to just go on up to the moon. It's certainly not feasible to Fly there on a Pokemon...

[sassymaru]

[He actually waggles a finger at the screen.]

Never fear. Allow me to figure out the logistics.

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

Uh...you're...certain about that?

[Oh no what has she begun]

[Video]

[sassymaru]

I am ever so certain.

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

...Well...then I wish you all the best of luck?

[What else can she really do in this situation? Point out that he'd need a rocket science degree, probably, and licensing?]

[sassymaru]

My thanks.

Once I have a word with this Arceus, you shall hear from me again.

[... yeah that's not going to happen, but he can dream.]

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

Uh, well, maybe you could, erm...keep us all posted? Don't go completely radio silent if the going is slow, you know?

[Don't try this and die, she means - even if you come back pretty easily after death here.]

[Video]

[sassymaru]

But of course.

Have you any message to pass on?

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

To Pokemon God? Uh...not at the moment, no.

[Video]

[sassymaru]

Very well.

I shall keep you in mind, however, if yours changes.

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

T-Thanks, I appreciate it...
