Atsuro Kihara has left this world. If you have received any of his Pokemon, I would like to know.

It's strange. Four years isn't a very long time, but for a lot of people that's a significant chunk of their lives. At least this place offers a kind of peace even in its chaos that some people can find.

And training Pokemon isn't that different of a skill from training demons in some ways.

In any case I thought people should be informed, given how long he's been here. I'm sure he had friends who would want to know.

Really? That's a shame. Talking with him was always a pleasure.
I haven't received any of his Pokémon, but if I see one you'll be the first to know.

It's appreciated.

He's just that sort of person. He's generally pleasant to most people. He's been like that as long as I've known him.

He made many people's stays here easier with his pleasantness, that's for sure. How long have you known him?

His Stoutland and his Phanpy were in my box this morning.

[crouching_sin]

So that's Cilk and Nalagiri accounted for... good. I've received his Arcanine, Porygon-Z, Golurk, Chandelure, and Zoroark.

You two must have been very close, for you to receive that many.

Four years, holy hell. That's a long time for this place, if you ask me.

You going to be okay?

[crouching_sin]

I'll be fine. Maybe after a drink or two.

[solas_ion]

Just one or two, huh? If we're measuring emotional states in alcohol, that doesn't sound so bad.

Ah, I remember him... He was quite kind. He'll be missed.

I wouldn't say four years is a short time, at least not... while you're young. That's longer than high school.

[crouching_sin]

When you're his age, no. It's not a short time. I'm a bit older, though, so it's a much smaller chunk of my life.

[esthetically]

This is very true; it's all in the perspective of the individual.

Were you two close?

Four years is impressive, as far as a stay in this place is concerned.

I don't suppose there's any word on his Pokemon? One of mine was friends with his Porygon, I know.

[crouching_sin]

What's the longest you've heard of someone being here?

And his Porygon-Z? I have it. It's staying with my own Porygon for now.

Somewhere around five, generally. Though I'd say on average, any stay of longer than two years is what people tend to consider "long-term" here.

And it's good to hear it found its way to a home. I'll make sure to pass along the word.

Atsuro-san was one of the first people I spoke with when I first arrived. In a way, I guess it's a good thing he's gone home seeing as he's been gone so long.

As for his pokemon, I think I have one. A Clefairy... but she hasn't stopped crying since I took her out of the PC.

[crouching_sin]

He has people at home who want to see him, after all.

Asterisk? Oh, good. She might do that for a bit... she was very attached to him.

Re: text;

[in_praetego]

Then he's definitely better off back home.

I think Asterisk found a friend in my cubone though. He seems to have calmed her down a bit.

When do you think he left?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

Today, I think. I called him, and I got a 'user not found' response.

[Video]

[bylight]

I see. I didn't receive any of his Pokémon, but I hope they found good trainers.

[chickshades]

Wait, he's gone??

[crouching_sin]

That's what I said, yes.

I'll be fine. He couldn't stay here forever.
