40 - video/action for Vermilion;
[It was kind of strange, really. After their match in the tournament, Riku hadn't seen hide nor hair of Xion. He thought he might've kept missing her and that she was somewhere in town; the city's huge, after all, and with so many trainers, it'd be easy to lose her in the crowds.
But when he tried contacting her over the Pokégears, he got no response. Then, when he checked his PC, he caught several familiar Pokémon inside what would've been an empty box (the others were safe at the TC, after all). Then there was that note... Really, it didn't take much to add two and two together.
So, when he addresses the network, it's with a somber expression. There's an Arcanine bounding around in the background, but Riku doesn't pay him much mind. Making it to the semis in two cups is worth celebrating, sure, but not when he's lost a close friend.
He hesitates before, finally, he speaks up.]
To those of you that knew her, Xion's gone. I've got Bahamut and a handful of her other Pokémon, but if anyone else wound up with some her roster, could you let me know?
She probably wouldn't want us to worry about her. If anything, she'd probably want us to keep smiling, but I know she made a lot of close friends here. It's only fair of me to give you guys a heads-up.
[There's a pause, followed by a sigh.]
And good luck to everyone else in the tournament.
[With his message complete, he shuts off the gear and wanders out to the docks with Flare by his side. It's still mind boggling to think about. After over a year, he hadn't expected her to just... vanish. And after he beat her in the tourny, too.
How ironic... depressingly so.]

Video - Again Imogen eye is all the camera catches.
*Pause, oh, right, his friend is gone.*
I'm sorry... about your friend going. I mean-
*She'll just cut off her feed now.*
Video - A+ tag. B] Truly beautiful!
Glad to be of help. ^_^

She could have at least been allowed to watch the whole tournament and cheer everyone on.

what he does instead is hunt Riku down, with the best surprise that he can muster. doesn't take much to find him. if anything, Sora and Riku are very predictable people where the ocean is concerned - they'll always be at the docks or at the beach.
Sora doesn't say anything though. not yet, nope. he will just kind of reach up to drape on Riku from behind, shaking some - you guessed it - ice cream in front of his best friend's face. it's just starting to drip, so Riku might want to latch onto that real fast before it gets on his clothes or shoes. ]

Where should we send them if we find her team members? Celadon?
[he said something about Celadon before, didn't he? It sounds familiar to her.]

She's gone? What a shame!

And here I was, hoping that I would be the one to get rid of her!

I have her Typhlosion and Beldum.
[It's the second time in a short while that Roxas has cried. He misses her terribly as well.]

Riku. Catch.
[Without further warning he tosses a can of juice to Riku, having taken a coffee for himself. It's the first time he's really talked to Riku since that incident but... It felt wrong to see him like this. And Sasuke doesn't exactly want such a strong opponent sulking and out of it before he has the chance to face him.
At least, that's the excuse he keeps telling himself.]

[China only spoke to her once or twice during his first stay in this world, but he remembered her. With that being said, he decides not to say anymore for now out of fear he may say the wrong thing without meaning too. He remembers how he felt when his family went back home and Ivan too.]

[ Saber isn't pleased to receive the news judging by the solemn tone she takes. Having been here for so long in this world, she has trouble slipping the helm of solemnity back over her head whenever something emotional takes place. Xion once told her that she was like Saber in a way back home; that wherever they return to, they had no future ahead of them. This world was their future and so they had to cherish every moment they could here.
And it shows. How her chose to use 'gone' instead of 'returned home' like so many of the other messages similar to this. Swallowing hard, she tries to formulate a response. ]
So this is how it is, is it? [ Not the best and it shows when she cringes after. ]

You're right about that part; she'd want you to keep going regardless of what happens. It sucks to have your friends disappear so suddenly and there isn't much we can do to stop that. Best thing to do is at least spare a few thoughts for her once in a while.

If anything, there's always a chance that you'll see her again.
[a chance and nothing more]
You're in the tournament as well I take it?

[He's quiet a few moments. Riku probably knows some of what he knows about Xion's future, or he thinks Riku might. Xion cared a lot about him after all]
We'll see her again. Just gotta have faith.
