[ She sends photos pulled form her 'gear albums:
Arlert the Hoothoot perched and leaning like a palm tree overhead, at sunset; she and the tree and the beach are all cast in shadows, with the brilliant seas painted in striking scarlets.
Libera the Gogoat daintily balanced on a stone over a slow flowing portion of a river, her reflection captured perfectly along with the brilliant blue of a reflected sky, with a Sobble clutching the saddle horn and peering down at their reflections with wide eyed interest.
A Honedge side by side with a Rockruff, who is studying what the Honedge is drawing in the dirt with a look of complete concentration.
Lute, sleeping with his chin resting in a lap, presumably Annie's.
Jeager the Litleo wrestling with Ackerman, the Primerina, who has him pinned and is staring down at him with a look of censure.
An Aurorus, Hoover, settled into a lake and bathing, with Arlert perched on her back. ]

[Annie is a good friend.
He takes his time, looking through the pictures, studying the unfamiliar monsters, wondering about their abilities, guessing at their typing...
...And reminiscing about familiar ones. Specifically:]
shield lady had a sword like that. i dont know what happened to it when she left. she left me her spike dog and her wrestle bird.
[He misses Athena, but thinking about her doesn't make him feel gutted the way thinking about Jean and Bert does. He knows she's alive and well on Pandora, even despite Lilith's attempted firing squad. He doesn't know what the future has in store for Jean, but he suspects it's not good. And Bert...
...Switching back to remembering Athena, now.]
when it grows up it grows a shield

... It's like having an ancient defense system, without being trained to use anything as old as a sword or shield. Pokemon are weird.
[ so are people, and so is grief. ]
I wonder if you can spar it? Not really useful when all I have is hand to hand combat...

[Sorry Thida ;w;]
Yeah, that's what I called him.
Sorry, Squid Girl.

Sorry, Squid Girl.
i dont know
probably not?
and i dont think they like being held
what a waste
probably not?

Is there anywhere that even believes in weapons here... it feels like the most you see are knives, and even then I'm not sure anyone can actually order them.
Scissors are fine.
[ .............what are they talking about now ]
Scissors are fine.
[ .............what are they talking about now ]
i havent seen any good for stabbing scissors
all the knives are too small, too
people use monsters for everything. except stabbing.
i dont think they even have axes here!!
[What even are they talking about now, indeed.]

[Oh.
Oh, no.
Now he feels even worse?
How is this possible???]
Where're you at, Squid Girl?
[Clearly she needs a hug, and he can definitely put aside his own bad feelings to deliver one. 8(]

Krieg?
[Armin's voice sounds slightly thin, like someone trying to force a hoarse voice to be even and neutral, trying to keep far too many emotions at bay and, quite frankly, not being all that successful at it.
Which means that Krieg probably already knows exactly why Armin is calling.]

[Oh, boy does he know. He doesn't really want to answer but he knows Armin is definitely feeling at least as shitty as he is, so, he does.]
Hey, Blondie.
[Does his voice sound super ragged and strained, like maybe he just finished yelling a whole bunch? You bet it does!]

[Does his voice sound super ragged and strained, like maybe he just finished yelling a whole bunch? You bet it does!]
[We are all feeling shitty on this terrible, unblessed day.
And honestly, Armin'd get not wanting to talk. He doesn't really want to talk. He wants to tuck away somewhere private and quiet and yell into his knees. And maybe definitely cry. But he needs to make sure of a few things first. And that does necessitate the exchange of information via an oral medium.]
You've heard. [It's not a question; just a statement. Krieg's voice has already told him enough.] ... this sucks.
[Which is putting it very mildly, but to be honest, Armin doesn't even have any better words for it. He's too tired and hurt to think of them. And in any case, he doesn't think they'd cover this feeling anyway.]

Yeah.
[Man, look at these good conversation boys converse. They're really straining their devices' abilities to transmit sound, what with all this conversation.]
...Do you have any of his monsters?

How do they... wait, I know how they cut down trees. Was there something historically that prevented this world from having people develop sensible defense and practical technologies? They have to have plows, no one plants just by hand, but even shovels don't seem that edge-sharp...
[So much conversation, so little time.]
Burrito and Fat Ice dog. And Shiro got Gastly. How about you? Did you-- Did Blitz end up with you by any chance?

no idea
i think theyve always just had the monsters

Yeah.
[Thank goodness that question has a one-syllable answer. But it doesn't feel sufficient, mostly because it isn't.]
I've got him and the muscle cat.
[That's still so many unaccounted for. Jean had so many great monsters, and only two came to him. What happened to the rest?]

[Lets imagine they are off roaming the land and living their best life. It might not be true, but it is a nice thought.]
Oh, good. I mean, not good. I-- you understand what I mean.
[It's not good that Jean's departure necessitates them having any of his mons, but if he is gone, it's good that Krieg ended up with two of his most precious pokemon.]
How are they doing? Are they-- Is Blitz giving you a lot of trouble?

I think the monsters always had this place, and people arrived sometime after, to be honest.
[So all by herself in the house Jim Dear bought...ugh 8(]
Okay. I'm coming over.
Okay. I'm coming over.
Mnn. No. He's sulking.
[And cranky, and Krieg has a couple of new electrical burns to show off, but that's now how he defines "trouble", and anyway, it's Blitz so it's to be expected.]
They're both sad.
