[ Tavros sits on the edge of his hotel room bed, both hands resting on the neck ruff of a Luxray that is seated next to him. she's curled up and mostly asleep, aside from occasionally peeking one eye open and leering at the window, where a small, brown shape can be seen popping up every so often.

for his part, Tavros seems pretty... down. he doesn't speak up right away, unsurely glancing at the camera and then down at the Luxray next to him. when he does start to talk, he keeps his gaze down. ]


I sure have a lot of beasts in my possession that come to me because of the departure of their trainers. After this one I'm starting to kind of wonder why? I mean, uh... not the thing where they come to me, because that part is already something I can ask them why about and they can tell me. The Pokemon, I mean. [ he spent plenty of time communing with this one, that's for sure. ] What I mostly meant was the part about why they have to in the first place, because of having, uhh, nowhere else to go. Since their previous keeper is gone.

[ a furrow in his brow, then he looks over at the camera, frowning. maybe a little angry-looking to go with all that upset. ]

Why is that a thing that keeps happening? To others and not some people, uh, how is that being decided, and by who, that's what I want to know. Because it is making for a lot of sad individuals, and especially sad Pokemon. All of mine are sad Pokemon that miss their trainers.

[ ... sigh. ]

I miss my friends too.

That's so sad...

[She sniffs a bit.]

...I miss people too. From back home, mostly.

[Currently, John is airborne, riding on the back of his Altaria on his way with Rose to go join Jade. Waking up this morning to find a whole bunch of Dave's pokemon in their room meant only one thing, after all. And with Dave gone, Jade was all alone in Kanto.]

I don't honestly know if anyone has an answer as to why it happens, Tavros. It just does and we kind of have to deal with it. It's not a nice thing to have to get used to, but if you don't you'll just work yourself into mess of bad feelings. It's okay to miss them, I miss all my friends that are gone too but...just don't let yourself get too hung up over them, okay? [He gives a weak laugh.] Especially not Dave since that asshole will be back before you know it, he always is. Johto has trouble holding onto Strider swag for extended periods.

[Awh, Tavros... Having lost both Toothless and Ziva, Hiccup's feeling pretty sympathetic. But Hiccup's got nothing else to lose...]

It doesn't really seem fair, does it? I don't think anyone really knows--at least, nobody's been able to give me an answer on it.

It's just how this place works. People show up without warning, people leave without warning. It'll probably happen to everyone, someday.

[keeping his hands occupied by petting an Igglybuff who, incidentally, he recently inherited from a friend.]

Well...no, it's not good enough. And it's always really unfortunate that the pokemon get left behind in all this. I imagine it hits them in a different way than it does us. But at least the pokemon have someone else to care for them now. And surely that's better than being all alone.

I don't either. Ahh... it's such a pain, you know? Whoever or whatever it is that decides should just make up their minds. Either bring people here and let them be once they're here, or leave them alone in the first place.

[...=c]

Yeah... Maybe. I'll try to remember to ask people, okay? I'm sure we can get at least a few clues, if we search for them.

Because the world isn't fair, kid. No way around it.

[He'd felt bitter about disappearances too. Still did, in a way, because there's no way to get rid of that storm of emotions when people go, even if they were back now.]

We don't really know. Some people have been here for years, and no one knows who decides it. It just... happens.

[He glances at the Luxray and gives a small smile.]

And I'm sure that Selina and Loke will be glad that their sister ended up with someone as kind as you. I can't speak to anybody else you know that's left but Dave will be back before we know it. Dude never even gives us time to really be sad before he shows up in New Bark again all 'Sup guys, I'm here and I have inappropriate Pokemon metaphors for you."

There's a lot of things that are hard to explain in this place. On why people keep getting sent here, only to be sent back home after a while. Or why we lose our powers. Or why if people come back here, they have no recollection sometimes of their time here. The circumstances that doesn't make sense is too many to mention.

[Shrug!]

It's just how he is. Dave being a jerk doesn't mean that he doesn't like you though. I am his best friend but that doesn't stop him from being a total prick to me at times.

Exactly! I mean, it's only fair, right? To have at least a little advance notice of these kinds of things.
