006. [Text/Action for Goldenrod City/Northern Route 34]

[TEXT]

While I suppose it matters relatively little in the long run, morbid curiosity compels -

Exactly how driven are most of you to complete this 'challenge' that's been set forth, and what drives you to complete it in the first place - what do you have to return to?


[ACTION]

[A short time after that text hits the network, Kimblee can be found just outside of Goldenrod City, on the northern end of Route 34; if the question is at all related to anything he's currently doing, it's not obvious in the least...outside of the part where maybe the Pokémon he's dealing with might be making him not want to live on this planet anymore.

Basically, his Yanma evolved.

Fortunately for him, the hellbug she has become seems to have retained her personality despite the evolution. She's honestly always been more like a dog than an oversized dragonfly; now she's just...well, a sufficiently larger dog. As such, she's bringing Kimblee a decently-sized stick to toss off into the nearby cluster of trees for her to chase; Kimblee is complying with her, albeit warily - he's never had much of a poker face, and while he seems generally calm, it's reasonably plain that he's half-expecting her to do something odd.

Like snap his arm off to get at the stick. Or maybe bring him back a person, or something.

Either way, he's clearly wondering what the hell his life has become. Good afternoon, Johto, it's been a while.]

[Hey, she hardly talks to people, don't judge her.]

"Return home"...

There's no return.


[For her, anyway.]

The dead do not come back.

[Plain and simple.]

[In all honestly, Chidori cares little about whether it's public or not, so it works for her.]

... You too?

[Only gently curious.]

You talk a lot.

[YUP. Sorry about that, Kimblee, but Chidori's not... the best choice for a discussion partner.

Still, the topic does concern her whether she likes it or not, so...]


... I don't know why I was given this chance.

[For better or worse, Chidori's pretty used to being talked to whether she wants it or not (and trust me when I say she usually doesn't).

As she is used to ignoring the remarks she doesn't care about.]


... Did you wish for it?

Second chance.

Did you want one?

... I don't know.

Certainly not here.


[Being dead and, in a sense, close to the person you love isn't half bad. Being alive and away from them? Not something Chidori is fond of.]
