I need to know the quickest way to Goldenrod.

[So says Riku, who appears a bit tense as the feed starts up. In the background, there's the sound of chatter from a Croconaw and Nidoking, but Riku remains focused on his gear.]

There's something me and Sora need to take care of, so the sooner we get there, the better.

[After that, the feed ends. It's short, sweet, and to the point; he's not in the mood for much idle chatter.]

We'll find the answers. For now, we'll just have to be patient.

Just let me know if you need help getting to sleep.

[He folds his arms and leans back.]

[Sora is too much of a manly man to outright ask for help, but-- well, who is he kidding? that pathetic little expression he gives Riku when he looks up at him says it all.]

Right.

[He reaches for a Pokéball, sending Phantom out in a quick flash.]

Alright, Phantom. Use Hypnosis.

[it's super effective-- the wild Sora has fainted! he sinks right into sleep, curled up on his side. even though he's asleep, he almost looks relieved, and relaxed for the first time since they left Violet.]
