First… Glow? [Video]
[So… you know Route 31, right? Nice quiet forest path, cute little pond, entrance to Dark Cave… way too many ledges?
A couple of days after the Snorunt leave their blessings (or “blessings,” in some cases…), the PokéGear feed will open up to… a yelp! A young, very feminine, oh-so dignified yelp, and a camera showing lots of rolling dirt, grass, trees, a rock or two, flashes of the winter noon sky, and occasionally a ball of pink coat and LONG moon white curls! (Hopefully no one in the audience has a fear of heights or vertigo.)
Thankfully, the fall only lasts a few seconds, and the audio of a groan after a few seconds lets everyone know both the PokéGear and its owner still function. Well, at least the camera does. The bad news… well, when Allura attempts to inspect device, everyone gets a good look at her mud-splattered face, AND at least three small branches jammed into her hair!]
Oh no, please don’t be broken!

[Instead, Shiro just, rubs at his face.]
You can't blame yourself - okay? That - if you really want me to tell you, don't blame yourself.
[Because they're enough alike that it's a concern.]
no subject
[Well now she IS concerned. But if this means so much...]
I'll do my best...
no subject
... I was here alone for a long time. Without any of you. I just had him.
no subject
[Oh...]
... Thank you for telling me, Shiro. You're right. It isn't something anyone could control. I still wish I could have been there for you, though.
[Not blaming herself, but... still sad. She remembered how scared she'd been before the others responded to her network post... How much worse had it been for Shiro, to be kidnapped again and completely alone?]
no subject
[It's been years. They're here. All in all, it hadn't been the worst thing ever. Easier to adjust to than a lot of other things.]
no subject
Dwell, no. But if it's still hurting you, than clearly it's important.
[Pot, kettle, but she'll be damned if she fails to give her paladins the support they need again.]
no subject
[And hey, he can say that with a straight face.]
It's... not great to think about. But it's done. It's over.
no subject
Mm... [She nods and lets it be.] Well, if you ever want to talk about this, or anything else, I will always listen.
no subject
I appreciate it.
