...

So this is what it feels like when a friend suddenly disappears.

[ Menma's face is... indescribable, sad but also lost. This is the first time one of her close friends leaves this world all of a sudden. Even she has no idea how she should feel about this. On her lap, there's an Eevee who looks just as lost.

It's like she musing to herself, rather than talking to the network directly. ]

At least now Maria can grow up and be happy in her home... uu... wish I could thank her for giving me this little one. [ She pets the Pokemon on the head absent-mindedly. ] I don't know if I should be glad for her, or... How do you all feel when a friend disappears? I... just don't know.

[ She quickly wipes a tear off her cheek, and then shuts the feed off. ]

Aw... so you won't buy anything for her now that she's gone?

[ It sounds so sad. ]

[captainash]

She sounds like a sweet kid. Was she fun to talk with?

[fairycircle]

I wish they didn't.

[gochuugoku]

I did, we spoke to once another a few times. She was such a sweet little girl, aru.

[He never had the chance to see the side of her that was a witch.]

[combat_butler]

Aha... That's always a feeling that lingers behind after someone leaves. You wish you had done more with them. Or at least that one thing you really wanted to do...

[timelymaid]

Well...I wouldn't know how to get anything to her, really!

[seetheflower]

What were you planning to get her, though?

[video]

[seetheflower]

I wanted to do a lot of things together with her. I could have let her watch me battle, or catch Nokemon together, or play with her Nokemon, or just drink tea, have naps together, or- or... many other things...

[seetheflower]

Maria is always sweet, uu-... she taught me a lot of things about magic.

[ That's not really true, but she believes so. ]

video

[seetheflower]

Does this happen everyday...?

[video]

[seetheflower]

Yeah, she was very very fun! I was happy whenever she called me...

[video]

[captainash]

...Maybe she'll come back and get to talk more with you. People do that, I've heard.

[video]

[combat_butler]

... be sure to never forget those things, Menma-san. You never know when the chance might come that you can do one of them due to the magic of happiness transcending time and space!

video

[fairycircle]

I... don't think so, but I haven't met everyone who has come here before.

[video]

[seetheflower]

Do you mean magic can bring her back here...?

[timelymaid]

A happiny pokedoll.

[video]

[combat_butler]

If not to stay... As long as you keep her somewhere in your thoughts, you might see her again someday.

*... roughly six months from now if he had to guess.*

[seetheflower]

Ahh, that looks cute.

... though I never saw a happiny.

video

[seetheflower]

Nobody knows why this happens, right...

[video]

[seetheflower]

She'll come back...? But when?

[video]

[seetheflower]

[ six months would kill her ]

Like Santa Claus? If I believe hard enough, he exists...right?

[video]

[captainash]

...I don't know. New people show up every two weeks, right? If you keep an eye on those, maybe someday she'll be there.

[video]

[combat_butler]

*fuuuuuuuuuu why santa of all things. the slightest of twitches at hearing that name*

Y... Yeah... Exactly like that red jerk Santa!

[video]

[seetheflower]

I really want to see him this year... ask him if he can bring Maria back...

[video]

[seetheflower]

Two weeks, you say?

... Then I'm gonna wait. See the network everyday, if I have to...!
