[There's a somewhat baffled look on John's face as he holds up an orange-ish disc emblazoned with a small 35 in front of the pokégear. On his shoulder, sits his loyal Dunsparce, Sassacre, staring at the small communication device with a blank a look as ever on his face.]

So I bought a few TMs and uh... [He pauses to give the disc a very pointed look.] Okay, basically how in the hell do these things work? Are they supposed to like...eat it or something? Because I'm not seeing any other way to insert a disc into a living thing.

[Somebody forgot to ask about it before he left the department store. Oops. He makes to turn the pokégear off, but stops, suddenly remembering something.]

Oh and...this might be old news, but Aradia has gone back home. I found her Kabutops in my box when we got back to Goldenrod.

are you ready for that second date?
or, well, for me to tell you what it is, at least?

[That silence is killing. She's just sitting there biting her nails almost waiting for John to tell her off. But at the same time she knows better because she's had this conversation with him. So it shouldn't be such a big deal.

When he finally does speak, she breathes relief and actually smiles. He always has been best at making her feel better.]


Yeah. You're right. I haven't ever been much good at not planning. I'm always planning ahead, plotting, schemey scheming. But maybe I should try that. Obviously things didn't work out last time.

I got her Aerodactyl. It's still sitting in the PC Box, but I looked it up through the data base. It seems very her. She was always into fossils and digging.

[It's a good thing Johto hasn't changed him too much, huh?]

Mmmhmm. When something doesn't work, all that means is that you have to try a different approach. It will all work out okay, you'll see.

Yeah. She did, didn't she? That's why she ended up separating from the rest of us. An expedition to the Ruins outside of Violet. Heheh... [So much time has passed, oh my god. Was that really months ago?] Hopefully she won't be gone too long...

[Very good thing.]

I guess so... [She's never tried different approaches before.]

[HUGE sigh.] Thanks John. You seem to have some strange knack for knowing what to say.

Hopefully that won't change any time soon.

So other than that, are you doing okay still? Adjusting to Johto life and all that fun stuff?
