If anyone's looking for me for the next two weeks, don't worry. I'm safe.

I'm just not able to move around during that time. I'm not hurt, though.

I'd have sent this directly to people, but I'm not able to right now - so don't respond unless you mind me not being able to respond privately.

I guess this means I'm missing Valentine's Day? I don't mind much, though. That holiday can be more trouble than it's worth.

On a somewhat related note, what are some things you can do when you're bored that don't involve your Pokemon?

Got a book of puzzles handy? Those got me through a few tedious briefings.

No, they're not letting me have anything. Not for a few days at least, probably.

[...Ah. York has an inkling what's going on here.]

Anyone around to talk to? A little conversation goes a long way.

There's a biker or two nearby. Most of them don't look very friendly. I can try, at least.

You might be surprised, the stories bikers can tell. They letting you keep your 'Gear on you or is this a one-time courtesy call?

[Text]

[grapeeater]

They're letting me keep it, though no private calls.

At least you've got some form of entertainment, then. Aren't there video games on these things?

I've never been much of a gamer. I kind of miss my phone from home.

[ratherbelocky]

Why, was it better than these?

[Text]

[grapeeater]

Well it used to have stats of the dance teams and stuff when that was going on. I miss the pictures, though.

[Text]

[ratherbelocky]

Ah, yeah. I know what you mean.

Guess that's why some people still carry photos around. I mean, real printed photographs, even in my time. Might still lose 'em, but there's something special about a hard copy.

Well it's kind of like... those people are the people I wronged, and because of their memories I want to be a better person. That's why I'm in this... situation.

[Text]

[ratherbelocky]

Yeah. I know what you mean.

[And he does, even if he never had pictures of them to hold on to.]

You wanna talk about them? Maybe not on a public channel, but I'd like to hear about them, if you want to.

I can't do private calls right now, unfortunately.

[Text]

[ratherbelocky]

Right. Maybe later?

[Text]

[grapeeater]

Maybe. We'll see how things go.
