[ The video turns on to Terra looking a little confused. He kind of sighs and rubs his neck, wanting to ask this because he thinks he may have just done something really stupid. ]

Could...someone tell me more about that Team Rocket? I know someone has mentioned them, but I'm not sure what any of them look like or anything.

[ Terra doesn't want to mention what happened, mostly because he's not sure if he did the right thing or not...]


Filtered to Ven and Riku

I think I gave something to someone I wasn't supposed to. They said they needed help...

Be careful next time. Ven would be crushed if something were to happen to you.

[And Hope too but he doesn't remember their previous CR so he keeps mum.]

[earthshattering]

I know. I don't intend to allow anything to happen to myself.

[ He smiles despite not really knowing the other ]

May I ask your name?

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

My name is Hope Estheim. I'm a friend of Ven, Riku, Sora and Kairi.

[Pause.] I also knew you when you were last here, though you don't remember it.

[earthshattering]

That seems to be a common thing, regretfully. [ But he smiles nonetheless ] It's nice to meet another friend of Ven's.

[eagletalons]

Ah-- don't worry about it.

[Another pause.] It's good to meet you too, Terra. [Again.]

[earthshattering]

Thank you for watching over Ven. I really appreciate it.

[ A pause ]

Have you been here as long as he has?

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

I arrived at the same time as he did, but no, I haven't been here for as long.

The last time I was here, it was over a year ago-- I've only been back for a few months.

[earthshattering]

Interesting. So you left and went back home?

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

A few times, in fact. I even heard that I once returned with no memories of my previous time here.

[earthshattering]

That's very strange. This world doesn't seem to really care about when to send others back, does it.

[eagletalons]

These things happen, unfortunately. If you stay here for any amount of time, you need to learn that this world is definitely not what it seems and anyone can disappear or appear.

[ Terra takes a moment to look a little bit down about that. It's hard to imagine that he'd be forced away from Ven again, especially when he felt that even though in there world things had pulled them apart, he had a chance to make up for it.

Especially considering that he had apparently been here before. ]

Hopefully, I'll be able to remain here for a long time.

[eagletalons]

Hopefully. Though, even if you may not be, it's no reason to make the most of your stay here.

[ A small pause before he gives the other a smile ]

You're right. Thanks, Hope.

[eagletalons]

You're welcome, Terra.

... If I may ask, what Pokémon did you start out with?

video; filtered

[earthshattering]

Turtwig...I've been trying to think of a name for him, but I'm not particularly good at it.

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

He hasn't exhibited any specific traits yet?

video; filtered

[earthshattering]

Traits? He seems really brave, that's all.

[ And pretty friendly, if Terra had to say...]

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

Nothing more specific than that? Because most trainers tend to name their Pokémon something that reminds them of one thing or another depending on their personalities or abilities.

video; filtered

[earthshattering]

He is very friendly, actually. Though I can't remember anyone or things that I know that would be frien--

[ He pauses and smiles a little warmly ]

I think I know a good name for him. I appreciate the help!

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

You're welcome?

video; filtered

[earthshattering]

I suppose it's a weird thing to be thanking someone for, but I want to all the same.

Master always told us to be polite. [ He's looking a little sheepish ]

video; filtered

[eagletalons]

Ah, I see. [Smiling a little, and decides to repeat what he said, but with more conviction!]

Then you're welcome.

[earthshattering]

Sometimes we just need someone to give us a different perspective. [ a small nod to the 'your welcome']
