26 (The Grocery Boy)

[In Goldenrod, our brave little queen has woken up, and it's her calm face that shows up on Video. But if you're in Goldenrod, feel free to Action it up!]

Hello, everyone. It looks like I entered one of those infamous sleeps Johto seems to be fond of... but I'm all right. I'm sorry to anyone I may have worried. And to all of our new arrivals - welcome! My name is Minnie Mouse, and I'd be more than happy to help you in any way I can.

[She then looks down.]

But... it looks like the King has taken my place.

[Now she shifts the pokegear downward, revealing that she's in the Pokemon Center, sitting on a bed, and... Mickey is asleep, his head on her lap. Everyone say 'dawwww'.]

Yes, that too.

[Which is true for him and Itachi, but he's still figuring out how important Itachi is in his life.]

How wonderful.

It's a strange feeling, knowing I'll never go home.

[her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com]

...

What is 'home', to you?

[usedgigadrain.livejournal.com]

I--

[He stops, and looks bewildered for a moment.] If you mean in that sense, I haven't ever had one, I think.

I was talking about the world I come from, though.

[her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com]

Maybe, then, you can have a new home. A better one.

Where could I go? What place would accept me with my past?

Can I even leave this world at all?

[her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com]

I've accepted you, haven't I?

[usedgigadrain.livejournal.com]

There isn't anyone else like you, Minnie-san.

[her-mouse-jesty.livejournal.com]

I don't think so. I have faith you'll make more friends.

[He's quiet for a moment and then shrugs.]

Perhaps. We'll see.
