silver_lucifer | [6th Scene] [Video]

[There's a moment where things are silent except for the singing hum of a Vibrava's wings; half of his team's visible - Bahamut hovering behind flickering in and out of view, Karma in his arms - looking like a halfway respectable fish instead of the saddest zombie-fish ever, while Iago the Arbok has his head resting on Kuja's shoulder like an oversized scaly dog. He's still not fond of large broadcasts, particularly when he's honestly a bit upset, but he knows Zidane had to know other people in Johto - and Zidane is still the best exception to his uneven relationship with things like "responsibility" and "morals".]

He's been sent home; there's no sign of his pokémon that I've seen, but if anyone finds them, I would appreciate word that they're alright. [And he can't even say he knows whether or not Zidane is alright, considering what he understands so far of this 'Cycle of Conflict'.]

[Already uncomfortable with being this public with it, there's another pause before the cuts off the feed.]

[You know, your pokemon aren't the only ones worried about you. Ritz is just walking over after the feed and setting a hand on his shoulder.] I could have done that, you know. You didn't have to.

Zidane is-

[Cecil can't even finish his sentence before he drops the Pokégear. Only his shoes can be seen, now.]

...Thank you for telling us.

Your brother went home...?

[Ven can understand how that feels, Terra's come and gone multiple times since he first arrived in Johto over a year ago. It's never easy]

M'sorry, um...

[Is this a Sir or Ma'am? Give him a moment or two to ponder this, he doesn't want to be rude]
