~06 text

[After trying (unsuccessfully) to exclude Team Evolution from receiving the message, Armin decides to bite the bullet and be vague enough to prompt interest from his friends, but not be insulting:]

I wonder how far the Warp Bands can actually communicate with one another. Is there a certain point when it's...out of range? I suppose we'll find out, won't we.

[As for why this is a text and not a video...this next message is sent to people Armin's spoken to at least two or three times:]

[Filtered]

Would you mind if I spent a night with you sometime soon? On your couch, I mean, just until I find a permanent spot.

any time

armin, what's wrong?

[Text is so nice and impersonal.]

Well, it's just that the hospital says Grampa's probably not going to improve so. I should think ahead.

...oh man, armin. im so sorry. is there nothing the healers can do?

Not anymore, no, except make sure he's comfortable. That's good that they're doing that.

im so sorry armin, i really am. but at least he'll go peacefully, right? he lived a good, long life

I'm certain that'll comfort me soon. Right?

Anyway. Meredith likes your couch so if I can come by tomorrow night?

sorry i'm not really helping, am i. i'll stop

yeah sure. you can stay as long as you need to

Hey, you're not thinkin' of running away from home, are ya?

Edited 2014-03-05 04:39 (UTC)

Of course not. If I were, I wouldn't tell anyone.

I dunno, you seem like the type who'd suck at the whole rebellion thing.

No offense.

But anyway, I don't think I'd wanna find out how far out Warp Bands go-- that'd be dangerous. Way into wild pokemon territory.

It's hard to run away with a Steelix in tow, okay.

But we gave those...people Warp Bands. Hypothetically, we could hear and see where-ever they go. If they chose to show us, that is.

The less we see of those guys, the better if you ask me.

Did you see that video? Of them experimenting on their own comrade?

Armin, you're welcome to stay in our guest room any time you like.

Is something amiss?

Edited 2014-03-05 04:49 (UTC)

You have a guest room? That's so nice.

Of course. It'd... be nice to have someone else in the house as well, you know. Mother works such long hours......

Oh, yes, that's right. Is it only you and her?

[...]

Yes, it is.

I don't want to impose, is all.

I'm not sure.. um [BERTHOLDT IS ACTUALLY TALKING TO YOU... WITHOUT PROMOTING.. he's grown closer to Armin.] I'm never.. really in my human forum when I venture that far out. So I don't pay attention to my wrap-band. .......Is something wrong?

[WHAT IS THIS WONDER.] Oh, yes, I suppose that's a factor. Do you know how far you've traveled?

No, nothing's wrong.

I normally only travel to the Lake Shine or other close places but I have ventured as far as the top of the mountain. From what I could remember when I meet Geronimo I had reception. ....Are you planning on traveling? And, alright.. I suppose it's normal to be worried.

The top of the mountain? What was that like?

No, I was...really, I was wondering about those outsiders. They have Warp Bands now. And it's very kind of you to be concerned, but I'll be just fine.R Really.

Cold.. ah.. and not a suitable atmosphere for Larvitars. ... Those monsters, Team Evolution? Mega Evolution isn't normal.. the Pokemon undergoing it have no idea the risks. I wish they would never return..

Oh, you're friends with a Larvitar?

I don't trust them at all. I don't LIKE them. They never made restitution for the effects of their machines either.
