...somehow I feel like I missed something.

[flawlesspoison]

I don't know what you missed, but I missed you.

[The truth. And possibly a silly joke, he's not sure]

I'm glad to see you're alright.

[flawlesspoison]

[Shiraishi nods]

Perhaphs it's a wise decicion to just not think about what happened and move on? I'm... looking forward to seeing you again.

[hayasugiru]

[...smile]

Buchou knows best, after all.

[flawlesspoison]

[Smiles]

I... might be coming to Violet City soon. There's the first gym. I want to challenge it.

[hayasugiru]

[brightens!]

That's the next town, right? I'll probably be there in a week or two.

[flawlesspoison]

Then we might meet there, since it will take a while before I'm going there. And who knows, I might stick around a while.

[hayasugiru]

We should hang out. Y'know, before you go back to your epic country-spanning adventure that you're several months ahead of me in.

[flawlesspoison]

I haven't really traveled a lot though. I've only been to Goldenrod and Olivine after the first three towns...

[hayasugiru]

Well.

We could go together?

[flawlesspoison]

That would be nice.

[He took some time to reply, since he had thought that he would continue his traveling with Fuji... but then again they hadn't really talked about that. And this was Shiraishi's close friend. Not that Fuji wasn't, but Kenya was closer.

So yeah. It would be time to move on.]

[hayasugiru]

[Kenya notes the pause; it makes his secondguess what he'd just suggested. It was pretty selfish of him, really. Shiraishi had been here for much longer than him. He'd made other friends, travelling partners. He was way ahead. Maybe all he'd do was hold Shiraishi back...

time to backpedal, speedstar.]

I-I mean, you don't have to. You've got a travelling party, right? Haha, I'd just be a hanger-on anyway!

[flawlesspoison]

Don't be stupid, Kenya.

[A serious look... but soon Shiraishi smiles brightly]

I want to travel with you. It's true that I started traveling with Fuji and all that, but we haven't really done that in ages. So I'm not really sure about my traveling party's future.

[hayasugiru]

Shiraishi...

[so maybe he's more surprised than he should be, but...]

Alright! Next time we meet up, I'll stick with you. It's decided.

[flawlesspoison]

Good. I'm glad.

[hayasugiru]

Yessir. We should have a match, too. I haven't played a proper game for ages.

[flawlesspoison]

Should I buy you a racquet? I doubt you brought one along. I had to buy one from here, at least.
