Anou...
[Well this was... new! Usually her dreams weren't quite this realistic, or, well, there had been that one time but then it turned out she had actually just managed to work while sick and it wasn't really dreaming so much as walking around in a sick and semi-hallucinogenic stupor.

... What are you calling a diary?

A-AHH!!! T-THERE'S ANOTHER PERSON THERE!?!

I'm sorry for startling you. This is a live two-way video transmission. Can I take it-- you weren't aware you made a transmission to the PGC?

I-I'm sorry! It's okay! I was just surprised!
[Well of course you were, that's why he's apologizing!]
Um, what's the PGC?
[That would be a no.]

The PGC stands for the Pokégear Connection. The device you're holding, that we're talking over, is a Pokégear. The PGC is the network that lets everyone who holds a Pokégear talk to each other.

Are you familiar with telephones and e mail?

Un! I'm familiar with telephones! I've never used email before!
[All attempts at getting Tohru to upgrade to the computer age were met with failure. :D]

That's what happened here. I saw your message over the PGC and answered it. It's likely that others will do the same.

[So not a diary at all! It's a good thing someone was good enough to tell her, or who knows what she might've said over the airwaves?! Tohru smiles brightly to show her thanks, nervous fumbling disappearing for a moment.]
I'm Tohru Honda! It's nice to meet you!

Mamoru Takatori. It's nice to meet you too, Tohru-san.
You have your bag, don't you? It's a three-day walk to the next town. You'll need the supplies in it.

Oh! This will be just like camping with mom, then!
[Tohru's look of uber determination, freeing one hand to pump her fist!]
Three days! Did you hear that, Chika-chan?
[Chikorita flashed her a matching look of determination!!!]
Chika!

That's spirited of you. It seems like you'll be all right for the journey, then.

[For a moment she looked surprised then, followed by excited.]
Look, Chika-chan! A baby bird! It's so cute! I wonder if it's as friendly as you are?

Ah. It would be best to be cautious with any wildlife you encounter along the way, Tohru-san. Wild Pokémon are different from your starter.

Eh? How do you mean?
[She'd stopped, but she needn't have asked what he meant by that. The moment she asked the Pidgey in question was puffing it's feathers angrily. Tohru squeaked as it suddenly took off and shot past, barely missing her in it's hurry. GTFO THE WAY.
The gear falls from Tohru's hand in surprise and gives a nice view of her legs in her Lass (Generation 4!) school uniform.]
AH! That was close! I'm sorry, Takatori-san!
[Tohru comes back into view as she retrieves her gear, Chikorita visible for a moment during the shift glaring after the wild bird.]
I-I will! I'll be careful from now on!

Mamoru waits in silence for Tohru to reclaim her Pokégear.]
You don't need to apologize. Are you all right?

[GOTTA WATCH OUT FOR THAT QUICK ATTACK, MAN.]
