Ain't nobody got time for that

[The boy on the 'Gear hasn't been seen in a couple of months now, but he still remembers how to use it. He also seems to have developed an unrelated tic beneath his left eye. Despite this, he looks as well put together as always, with a grinning Sableye butting her head up against the underside of his chin every so often, clearly the mark of a pokemon who missed her trainer greatly. For his part, he's ignoring her affections, which is relatively unsurprising to those who know him.

The scenery behind him is New Bark Town, and he does not seem happy to be there.]

Whoever is in possession of the rest of my pokemon has one hour to return them to me. There are five altogether. Four of them, two Persians, a Dragonite, and a Milotic, should have "Byakuya Togami" as their Original Trainer. The fifth is a Rapidash who answers to Vampa.

Don't waste my time by asking idiotic questions or attempting to hold them for ransom, I don't respond kindly to threats and blackmail. If I see that they have been well taken care of, I will consider a small reimbursement.

[He pauses, and it's then that it becomes noticeable that he is visibly unsettled, however curt his tone.]

If Naegi or Kirigiri is still here, it would behove them to respond with haste as well. That is all.

[Without so much as a 'thank you for your time,' the irritated young man cuts off the feed.]

[ 'Sup, asshat. Your protag looks like he could use a shower, judging by the amount of Goomy slime on his coat and his hair.

...He's been stuck in Ice Path for a while, showers aren't a thing out here. ]

Welcome back, Togami-kun.

It's about time, I was just about to give you up for lo--

[Squint.]

What have you been rolling in.

Edited 2014-02-19 02:44 (UTC)

...If you're talking about the slime, it's from a Bloober.

...And what in god's name is a bloober?

[Did a new region spill its unwanted refuse all over the place while he was gone?]

Wait a sec. [ He picks up the PokéGear and holds it so the feed shows a Goomy looking all dopey and cute. ]

That's a Bloober.

[What kind of abhorrent creature--]

I've seen enough. That is without a doubt the most unfortunate-looking creature I have ever laid eyes on.

[Anyway.]

I want you to give me a summary of important things that I've missed in the last month.

[ ...Why are you hating on the Bloober. ]

Um, Ishimaru-kun woke up from his coma...and Oowada-kun isn't here anymore.

[Because he hates fun.]

I see.

[Well, before he would have said 'good riddance,' so improvement????]

I can't imagine that he's taking that particularly well.

He remembers the second trial now, after he woke up. He's less...broken than he was after the execution, though. He's not staring off into space all the time anymore.

At least there's that. I'm sure it's less pathetic to look at, anyway.

[Though if he remembers the second trial that means Togami will probably be catching all kinds of hell later over certain liberties that he took with the second crime scene.]

[ ...YEAH HAVE FUN WITH THAT SON. The narrative may have forgotten about that but Ishimaru hasn't. ]

I'm looking after him right now. We're on our way to Blackthorn so I can't help you with your Pokémon. But they were at the house when I left so I'm sure one of the others will return them to you soon.

[...Maybe he'd be better off if Ishimaru was still catatonic.]

...That's excusable. So long as I know that they haven't been dispersed to complete strangers.

[You know, like how he ended up with Vampa. But it's different when it's your own team.]

Oh no! Did they get stolen?

[...well he supposes it's not a stupid question, per se.]

Not exactly. Someone thought it a merry joke to inconvenience me by returning me to the first town I arrived in, and didn't see fit to return my full team as well.

Um why wouldn't they? That's horrible.. maybe they were taken to the foster care? Mayushii knows some of her friends pokemon ended up there.

Hm, that's feasible. The house that I was staying at was next door to the foster home.

Yup yup. Oh and we're in Goldenrod too and could check!

No need. If I don't hear back from my classmates, then I will call the foster home myself.

Then good luck to you! I'm sure they're being well taken care of!

Huh? No shout out to the rest of us? What are we, chopped liver?

[HE'S KIDDING. Mostly.

Also Togami might notice that Hagakure has significantly less hair than he previously did. It still stands up wildly of course, but it doesn't look like it could engulf people anymore.]

But it's good to have you back, Togami-chi! [...sure.] Don't worry about your Pokemon, they've been chillin' at the house.

Edited 2014-02-19 04:02 (UTC)

[Do you really want him to answer that, Hagakure.

...and well, progress is progress. It isn't as if Hagakure's hair could get any worse.]

I assumed as much. [He doesn't let it show but he's actually a little relieved.] If you are at the house, I suppose you'll do as well as any to return them to me.

[Is that a challenge?]

Yeah, no problem! They should all be here, but I just gotta check to see if anyone took one with 'em when they went traveling. It's pretty much just me, Kirigiri-chi and Alice-chi at the house right now.

[No. God no. Keep that mess sated so that it doesn't gain sentience.]

Well at least there's one competent person still at the house.

The one hour time limit still applies.

[It takes him only a good moment or two to realize he's not the competent person Togami's talking about. He looks pretty offended once he discovers this, but doesn't say anything. Rude, Togami-chi.]

It's not gonna take me that long, jeez. Just hold on a sec!

[Well, it doesn't take him "a sec", but it's like five minutes later when he replies again.]

Okay, I got 'em all rounded up! I'll bring 'em down to the PokeCenter in a little bit. I was gonna grab some stuff in town anyway.

I guess you won't need a Pokemon to ride on this time since you've got your Dragonite and Rapidash, huh?

[Look, he's fairly sure that the only reason you survived murderschool was a cocktail of luck and stupidity, you're not exactly a paragon of competence.

Togami glances at his pocketwatch when Hagakure returns to the screen.]

I'd suggest making that visit to the Center your priority, given that you only have fifty minutes left.

[He wants his babies back.]

Vampa and Vouivre should suffice to get me back to the house in an expedient manner, yes.

Hey Togami, welcome back! I was wondering if you were ever gonna show up here again. Don't worry about your Pokemon, last I saw they were around the house. Your cats got hair all over the sofa so you might wanna trim their fur a little.

Oh, and Naegi and Kirigiri-san are still around. You'll probably get a call from'em soon enough.

[God knows how many Eevees in the damn house and you think his cats are the problem? Really?]

I wasn't worried, it's an inconvenience at most. I am not one to take slights lightly, and if I had found out that someone had received ownership of them in my absence I would demand the return of what is rightfully mine.

[At least the Eevees know to leave his bed alone.]

Well if they had gone missing from the house, I'm pretty sure Naegi would've asked around on the Gear about it. Anyway they're all safe back home so all you need to do is find a way up to Goldenrod. Anyone picking you up from New Bark?

[It's not that Rich and Alice don't know, it's that they don't care.]

I do not need 'picked up', I'm not some unsupervised child. I'm perfectly content making the journey by myself.

[In fact, he prefers it.]

[They started caring once Leon started bribing them with Poketreats.]

Chill man, I never said you were. I just thought you'd like someone to pick you up. You just...seem the type to like that kinda stuff, you know?

[if you made his cats fat I s2g]

I'll get on perfectly well once my team has been returned to me. That's the only assistance I require.
