[ She's well aware that text isn't a preferred mode of communication for some people, and this is too important to not get out to the greatest amount of people who knew him possible, but...Aradia's forgoing video for once, so all that's coming through is her voice. She sounds fairly calm, if a bit rushed, but there's a bit less pep and a bit more seriousness, though admittedly only those who are familiar with her may even note that much. ]

Hi. Jake English went home today. [ Just...putting it out there, front and center. Aradia takes another breath before continuing. ]

I'm not sure exactly when, but...well, we've been having the same problems as everyone else. A little bit. It was only the once, but - well, let's just say we were all split up. And I was trying to contact everyone to try to coordinate a reunion, but - I couldn't reach Jake's gear.

I tried a few times, just to be sure, so - I don't think it's a mistake. ...Besides which, both of the Jake Pokemon are with me, and - [ Well. Logic therefore dictates that he's gone. ]

If anyone has any Pokemon from his roster I'd appreciate it if you sounded off. I'm sure they're all going to be well cared for but it would be nice to know where they ended up, although admittedly there are a number of Pokemon to account for.

[ There's a short pause, and then, wryly: ] We had a bit of a problem back then, didn't we? ...Anyway, that's about it. Oh! I did find Kanaya, though. We just ended up on opposite ends of town.

He actually has a laptop! So there is that.

He does? Where did he manage to find one?

Bought it for his birthday! I'm given to understand a few people have them.

I haven't yet found a good electronics store... Guess I'll have to look harder.

I can send you where that laptop came from, maybe?

That would be great, thanks. With a good computer, my life would be much easier.

It's no problem! I'll text it right over. I don't actually know what he does on his laptop. Codes things? Plays games? Demolishes people on some pokemon-related mmorpgs??

[ SHE DOESN'T ASK. ]

...Would they even have Pokémon-related mmorpgs, with real Pokémon and adventures so easily available?

You may as well ask if they would have normal mmorpgs in other worlds with magic and the like! I think there are always going to be people who prefer that sort of thing to doing the actual thing?

And I guess people with a naturally poor health would want a way to see the world and have fun, too.

That's true. There's a lot of reasons for that sort of thing to exist!

I bet it's especially popular during the winter months, when sane people don't bother to travel.

Oh, I can't even begin to imagine how much he's going to complain around then...

I like travelling whenever! Though we admittedly didn't go anywhere during the apocalypse bit.

That did kind of put a damper on everyone's plans. Apocalypses tend to do that.

Hahaha, I know right? Who ever would have guessed!

It figures that would cause more inconveniences than regular world-threatening incidents, really.

Just a bit. ...Anyway, I think I'd better go and check on the pokemon again. They miss Jake.

Yeah, they probably need it. I hope they'll feel better soon.
