[ squeak. squeak. squeak. that's the sound of familiar footsteps as teddie walks into the room, looking a little sad but also. you know, normal. ]

You're leaving, Chie-chan? [ carefully. ]

[Aww, Teddie. Chie gives him a brief smile, walking over to stand with him.]

Yeah, I think it's the best thing for me to do. I need to get myself moving again. I've been standing still for too long.

[ glancing up at her and trying to return that, though he is a little apprehensive. people leaving just felt weird, even if.. he could still talk to her. ]

I get it. [ a nod. ] Gotta get those muscles working, huh!

[isthisourchance]

Yeah, something like that! I've heard getting exercise can help your mood, too.

[After a second's thought, she reaches out to ruffle Teddie's fur.] Don't worry, I'll be coming back before too long! The Breeding Center's my home away from home now.

[ and his ears kind of twitch at that as he smiles. hearing that was a bit reassuring. ]

I'll be ready, Chie-chan! [ yeah. ] With streamers! I'll yell "WELCOME HOME" as loud as I can!

[isthisourchance]

[D'awww, so cute. Not that she will ever say it to you.]

I'll be looking forward to it! And heck, once I've hit up Cianwood's gym, I'll be able to fly anywhere I need to be. I could probably stop back here between gyms!

[ okay, reassuring. he's feeling a lot less unsure about this than he was, and it's probably... very obvious. ]

Yeah! [ a small fist pump. ] Good luck, Chie-chan!

[isthisourchance]

[She can definitely tell, and his feeling better is making her feel a bit better about leaving.]

Thanks, Ted! With you and everybody else cheering us on, there's no way we can lose!
