[ Miyuki turns on the 'Gear, sitting on the edge of a bed in an inn room. (Wait, so you're saying she's paying for an inn room? Yes, yes, she is. Something's clearly wrong here, and not just because she's not freezing her ass off in a tent: her eyes and nose are red. She's clearly been crying.)

When she clears her throat and speaks, her voice is soft, but steady, and strangely sober for Miyuki. ]

My brother— Chitose Senri went home, in case anyone's looking for him. He left me his Persian — [ She turns the camera down to the cat's head in her lap. ] — and a note. I guess he wrote it a while ago.

[ It's a long moment before she turns the camera back on herself and smiles, however weakly. ]

He said when I come home, we'll celebrate me being a Pokémon League champion. I'll hold him to it, y'know. A girl's gotta get some recognition. ... So I'm gonna keep going to collect all the badges, so when I come home, he'll be proud—

[ Her voice cracks suddenly, and she drops the 'Gear into her lap. There's a too-close view of the Persian lifting her head, mewling concern, but just a few seconds later, Miyuki picks it up again. Her eyes are wet. ]

I got the Hive Badge already. Three down, five to go. Then it's on to Kanto. [ She clears her throat again and swallows. ] Me and Sakura-chan are headed up north, leaving tomorrow morning.

I've got some last-minute stuff to do before we hit the road again.

[ The feed ends somewhat abruptly. ]

[ This talk of leaving and returning --- was a little sad. If Miyuki returned there was a slim chance of her returning.

Still, it was a nice thought to think that she can see her brother and keep her friends here too. ]

Until then, you can still enjoy yourself in Johto ... winning battles and going on a journey ...

Your brother liked that too, didn't he? Going to different places.

Yeah, he did! Sometimes he'd take a train somewhere and just get off at, like, some random stop. Then we wouldn't see him all weekend and it'd turn out he was lost... [ She laughs. ] He liked it here, I think.

[ Quietly. ] I think he did too ...

[ She takes a little breath, then puts on a smile. ] Well, it's not like anything can stop that dude from wandering off. He'll wander at home, too.

[ Laughs. ] I don't think he will change much just because he went home either ...

[ Paused. ]

Miyuki, I made some Valentine cookies for you and your brother ... I regret being so late.

But I think he would have liked it if you have them.

[ Miyuki's smile softens for a second, but it doesn't take long for her to brighten up again, laughing a little. ]

Hey, I'd probably end up eating most of his cookies even if he was here. You gonna send 'em over, or should I send my Charizard to pick 'em up?

Oh! There is no need to trouble yourself ... I can send it to you with my Altaria.

It may be easier since I am still in Goldenrod.

Thanks, sis! [ She's smiling brightly now. ] I'll save some room for them, for sure.
