[ Have N on your screens, Vatheon. He is looking quite...rough. His hair does not look like it has been brushed with any particular care anytime recently, he has a few bruises showing here and there around his black undershirt, and rings around his eyes.
When he speaks, his voice is sad. ]
For anyone that knew Hilda...
It seems she has gone

[Red sits still as N made that broadcast. He watches without a smile, but as soon as N was done, he moves to sit next to the other boy. Again, he starts stroking N's hair... trying to straighten, fix it, while trying to mend his heart as well...]

[ N looks up at him slowly. How often has he cried in the past few days? He still feels so weary, so hurt, and every day brings some new pain. ]
...sometimes...this place scares me.

Even so... There's nothing much we can do for now. We're all still trying to find out about this place, but what we can do is limited. All we can do is try to make it as we live on.

N hangs his head. What if he feels like he belongs here? That there is nowhere else to go? But he is scared to voice it. ]
Reply
But before he comes back, he wants N to come back first... He doesn't want to leave N all alone like this. And all Red can do is hope and clench a hand to himself.]
... Do you remember what I told you before?
Reply
[ But. ]
...will you be able to keep that promise? If we go back...we forget everything. It's all erased. Like Green.

Somehow, I know... I'll remember something, even if not all of it. I know that I'll find you again someday.
Maybe I'll cross the same street with you, or bump into you in the same Pokemon Center. I don't know. But I know... We'll meet again. I believe it.

And this place, it changes times. I don't know how many years separates us.
...they're probably going to arrest me anyway if I go back.
[ He bites his lip rather viciously. ]

If that's the case... there's a chance for you to end up in Kanto. Maybe even Johto.
And, even if it takes years to find you again, I don't want to give up. We've been blessed enough that we are from the same world... If fate decides to smile, I'm sure that I will find you.
I'll find you, protect you as I promised... I'm sure that they'll listen to me if they find out your true story. I'll do what it takes for them to consider my words.

[ To N's mind, everything would be better, safer, if only he could have Red stay with him here. For all of its horrors and flaws, going back scared N much worse. ]
Reply
[Staying here... It's just not safe. None of them know what will happen in the future. None of them know the true reason of their existence in this world.
Aside from that, Red just can't... turn his back away from his responsibilities. He can't run away anymore. Not again.
He lowers his head faintly, but is unable to say anything. He moves to tightly embrace his beloved. Though for now, all he can do is indeed stay with him.]
... I'm here for you. Always.

And if he had the chance to leave Vatheon...
N thinks he would take it.
But he does not say those things, curling close to Red instead and holding him tightly. ]

But he eventually starts smiling again, pressing his cheek down unto N's head... against that soft hair.]
N... Did you know that you have the scent of spring?
Reply
[ N peeks up at him. ]
What does that smell like? Is it a good smell?
