Silver...?

[He looks a tad upset himself; odds are he already found out about Green's disappearance.]

[battlestandby]

... Right. But at least they'll come back... I can't imagine any of them wanted to leave.

[tsuuuun]

They didn't.

[battlestandby]

... Then they'll come back. Trust me, I know the difference.

[tsuuuun]

...I know. [They. They will. Right? No, they definitely will.]

[battlestandby]

When people really... really want to leave... you won't see them again. You'll just know... it's an instinct. But that group... they had strong ties with us. Green hated his world, and after meeting Ash and getting his eye fixed, then... then there's no way he'll stay gone for long. And if he'll come back, so will the rest of them.

[tsuuuun]

... [He'll just listlessly nod at that.]

[battlestandby]

... No matter how long it takes for them to return... don't give up on them. That's what I'm going to try for the first time... in years. Blind faith...

[tsuuuun]

I won't, Paul. So make sure you don't either.

[battlestandby]

I'll keep you in line if you do the same for me.

[tsuuuun]

...Deal.

[battlestandby]

[He'll just smile at that. Things may be dire now with Green & co. gone and not!mom horribly depressed due to this, but at least he finally feels like all the kinks with him and Silver have been worked out.

Now it's just a matter of staying optimistic!]

[tsuuuun]

[He... It's not even he can deal with this at this point. It's he has to. If someone else is relying on him, then--

Cough cough cough.

...Ugh.]

[battlestandby]

[Okay, the bold means Paul's noticing now.]

... You okay?

[tsuuuun]

...Breathed in too much smoke. I'll live.

[battlestandby]

Not if you keep running around the island like this.
