[ Sebastian himself has the 'Gear for once, and he's reclining, calmly, in a massive armchair in the Blackthorn Inn. ]
Good afternoon, Johto. I apologize; it's been quite some time, hasn't it?
The young master and I awoke in Blackthorn City after this weekend's events, which I can't quite clearly recall. It would seem that I spent some time in the Ice Path to the north, however. [ A beat. ] I may have caught a chill.
[ He turns the camera, then, to the Mightyena at his feet - literally at his feet; the dog is lying with its head between its paws and Sebastian's feet propped on his back. His tail wags slowly when Sebastian looks down at him. ]
The animal evolved a week or two ago. It's a bit calmer now, thank goodness. It was much more trouble than it was worth, underfoot the way it was.
[ Turning the camera back on himself, he smiles pleasantly. ]
I apologize for our abrupt disappearance from Goldenrod, but it couldn't be helped. If the young master or I are needed, we can be reached in Blackthorn. For the moment, we intend to remain here.
[ There's another pause, this one lengthy and somewhat heavy. His eyes wander briefly before he looks back at the 'Gear and resumes smiling, somewhat less brightly. ]
And for those acquainted with her, if you have not already heard, Chrome Dokuro has left Johto. I have been left with one of her Pokémon, Mammon, under my care - if he's been missed.
☼afternoon,
