saxsongs | ♪10 | video/action for Cerulean City

[This video starts with a clear view of a room. It's a room at an inn in Cerulean City, to be exact, even if you can't really tell. There's no one on the screen, but some voices can be heard.]

... and I'm sure they'll all be back safely in no time. Even Shinomiya will return. Just wait and see. [Ren is talking with a gentle, calm voice.]

Y-yeah...I just...we haven't heard from them in a...a while... [While Haruka sounds quite distressed, worried.]

I know, I'm worried too... but at the same time I'm sure they're all well.

Yeah, we'll all be together again... [A beat. There's a sound that could imply a hug.] Thank you. Thank you so much.

Sssh... It's okay. That's what I'm here for.

[The conversation fades away and then silence fills the room. After a while, the camera shakes as the one filming it jumps up with the gear. The mirror on the night table reveals that the one holding the camera is a Zorua.

Once the shaking stops, a cute scene awaits the viewers.

(Fanart credit)]

It seems the two have fallen asleep. The video will continue as it is for a while before another one of Ren's Gardevoir puts the gear away.]

[After a long, sad silence, he decides to address the first issue at hand.]

I hope you aren't planning anything indecent in a mourning lady's presence, Jinguji.

[How is it that Hijirikawa spots all things like this so quickly, Ren will never figure out.]

I'm not that indecent.

[Jerk.]

Besides, I'm just her friend. You don't have to worry about me making my moves towards her.

I'm not, but a friendly reminder never hurt.

So you two were separated as well...

A "friendly" reminder...

[Not impressed.]

Not for too long. [A beat.] Kurusu is headed to where Ichi and Ikki are and then they'll come back to Cerulean... where are you?

Ah... It'll be good if he doesn't travel alone.

...I'm on my way to Goldenrod.

So you got thrown back to Johto, huh?

[Sigh. Just like Hijirikawa to say that it's good that someone else isn't traveling alone while he himself is.]

I can lend you a Pokémon to ride, if you'd like. Ittoki's a good mount.

[He can handle himself, thank you. With that, he shakes his head.]

I appreciate the offer but i's alright. My team and I can manage. It's just a few days of walking until we can reach the train station.

Aright, if you say so. Though if the situation changes, just call.

I will. It should just be a few days of travel, though. Just watch out for the others.

After all, we've misplaced one.

[They have... haven't they. Ren sighs, and lowers his voice. He doesn't want Haruka to hear any of this.]

It seems like Shinomiya went home. His gear number isn't responding at all.
