[Rika turns the pokégear on, and immediately turns it onto her.] Mii... It's a bit strange being back. [Especially since all of the memories of Johto came rushing back to her as soon as she woke up, but that's something she won't mention right now.] I believe it was July that last time I was here. [She looks at her surroundings before looking back at the Gear.] It's colder than it was when I left, so it's been at least a couple of months, right?

[She lets out a small sigh. Honestly, she's not sure if she wants to know how long she's been gone. Especially if she's been gone for a long time, since it'd be more likely for her friends to have gone home—but she's trying not to think about that right now.

So, whatever frown might have formed disappears as she smiles and turns the Gear to an Absol sitting on the ground next to her.] I also have a new pokémon! Although, I'm not sure what I want to name him. [Rika turns the Gear back to her.] I wonder if anyone would like to help me name him? I suppose I could make whoever's suggestion I use a homemade lunch. [There's a short pause.]

... I should probably introduce myself since I'm sure plenty of new people have arrived. I'm Rika Furude and I was here in Johto for two years before I went home. It's nice to meet all of you. Nipaa~

[She grins before shutting off the feed.]

[She grins back, but it falls slightly at the mention of how long she's been gone.]

Mii... I've heard it's been a few months. I was home for only a couple of weeks, though.

[His expression follows suit, remembering her home world had unresolved problems]

How were things back home?

[Her smile brightens considerably.]

We managed a miracle. Everyone's all right now.

Whoa, that's wonderful!

[He's so happy for Rika, he owes her another twirling. That is such excellent news]

It reminds me, you really were right about having faith.

[She nods.] It was tough, but when we finally got together all the missing pieces we managed to do it.

I'm so glad, it sounded like you went through so much to get there.

It was a lot. However, I think it was worth it.

I bet. I'm really happy for you, Rika. Your world must be a much happier place now.

[His heart could burst, he's just so happy for her and proud of her accomplishment.

Fortunately, no popping sounds here]

Thank you, Ven. It's difficult to explain how much of a relief I feel being finished with all of it.

[Good thing, since she's too far away to help!]

When we're in the same place again, let's celebrate, okay?

[And then he can twirl her because aw yeah Rika twirls]

[an enthusiastic nod] Yes! Where are you right now?

[good because she's always up for some twirling]

[And this is where his mun has to guess where he was, woop]

I've been traveling a bit, but I wind up in Goldenrod a lot lately.

[There shall be twirls]

Mii! I'm hoping to stay there for a while once I reach it, so we should see each other at least a little.

That'd be awesome! Feels like ages.

[she nods] I'm sure it feels much longer for you. I was home for only a few weeks.

Gosh, time sure does pass in strange ways...

A week here was over a decade for me.

Over a decade?
