First Day. [text/action for rocket base.]

[laplaceattorney]

[Keisuke's not really feeling up for too much talking, given his situation, but he feels the need to take care of some basic business between his Rocket training seminars, etc.]

I've already figured out that this isn't a dream. Though it may not seem normal, the universe itself makes too much sense for that. Knowing that doesn't solve my problem, though...

Why am I here? Is there a way to get back home so I can finish something I need to do?

...If anyone knows Atsuro Kihara, Midori Komaki, or any of their friends, I would appreciate it if you'd tell me. I can't be the only one here, after all.

K-T

[God, he hoped he wasn't the only one here.]

[Normally, this sort of thing wouldn't warrant a reply, since he tends to just observe from the sidelines, but...they mentioned someone he knew. And he could assist, even if it was something as small as this. Why not?]

Atsuro Kihara is among us in Johto.

[He'll address the "why am i here" part in a bit.]

1/3?

[Atsuro stare at his PokeGear's screen, reading and rereading the text again. Every time, the text is still the same.

"Atsuro Kihara", "Midori Komaki"
"K-T"]

A friend of Komaki-san's? I'm sorry to say you've missed her.

Sorry, but there's no sure way to get home.

On the bright side, Atsuro is around and if you're friends, he'll probably contact you quickly.

[Wow, way to bring up a million feelings, Keisuke. He doesn't even know you, but it's the fact that you know Midori... And it's times like these that he realizes, nope, he's still not over her. He wants to ask about her, but... he'll just stick to answering Keisuke's questions instead.]

Atsuro is here.

Midori... used to be.

People come and go, but no one knows how or why. Just think of it as "there's no way home except for when there is." You don't choose to, you just... disappear one day. Maybe tomorrow, a week from now, a month, a year.

Basically, you're stuck, so. Welcome to Johto. It's really not that bad once you get used to it.

[After all, he met her here... then Johto sent her back home and now he's stuck with all these feelings. Bluh.]
