[Razor has a feeling of impending doom. It's almost like the animal instinct before a big storm rolls in, though he can't sense anything distinctly like that, which has him... well, slightly on edge, really. He keeps quiet about it, though, waiting for the sound of thunder, metaphorically...

And Jinx's words make him rise from the floor where he was huddled around a couple of his team.]

No sounds from the box... I will check.

[It takes him a moment to navigate his PokeGear, and sure enough... there's nothing from Sylvain at all -- not even their history -- but there is an image of a Pokemon that he knows he hasn't caught. He clicks on it, and shows the screen to Jinx as the Gear announces Maurice the Midnight Lycanroc.]

Maw-ries? That... is Silver-- Sil-vein's Pup...

[fortuna_tenax]

( jinx watches as he checks- and quietly, nervously, keeps a hand on her skitty's head. skittles mews quietly, because the heavy air is uncomfortable and too strong. )

Maurice? But... why?

( but when she goes to try and message him, his contact information is gone. greyed out, like it's inaccessible- which. uh. it is, actually. immediately, she starts looking for something on the gear screen, typing rapidly- )

I can't call him.

[lightningfang]

[Though he does his best to try, Razor runs into the problem as well. Maybe he doesn't show his panic as much in his movements, his muscles feel tense and his hackles raise more by the second.]

Maybe he is lost? We can meet his pack, follow his scent.

[fortuna_tenax]

They're in the other region now- it might take us a bit to get to them. But I'm for it- we'll need to get to Goldenrod to get a ride.

( ... oh, oh boy. it... looks like on top of sylvain's absence, she also gets to explain trains to razor- but it's the best way for them to get to kanto, isn't it? so there's only so much they can do. )

[lightningfang]

A ride?

[Razor has the distinct feeling he's in for a lot of new lessons packed quickly in succession. It's fairly overwhelming, but... for Sylvain, worth every second.

He gives a soft huff, and all of his team nearby soon gather around. The boy glances around, taking a headcount, and...]

Okay. We are ready.

[fortuna_tenax]

( jinx nods, before scooping up the skitty- she'd been focusing on some of the weaker pokemon this time around, so all she had on her was basically babies, comparatively even if the last egg hatched shortly after prom, months ago. she makes a point of keeping her gear out, just in case. )

Right... ( man, good thing they already packed up, huh? ) If anything comes up, Felix will probably contact me.

( so now all that's left is booking it to goldenrod, isn't it? ... sighs, she probably should have at least kept amalthea-- oh well. )

[lightningfang]

[Razor just doesn't believe in many possessions. He keeps just enough changes of clothes to keep Jinx off his back, food for his team, and his practice sword. He is Always packed.]

At the Center, I will get Maw... He can meet Pup, and Cub... Then, after the ride... They track him, together.

[Even after so long, it feels odd and difficult for Razor to speak so much at once... And even as he tries to head for the door, his hair still stands on end. Not much makes him feel quite this anxious. An injured packmate, a missing pup... He thought he'd left this sort of worry behind in Wolvendom.]

[fortuna_tenax]

( the best thing about having checked her gear when she did? all the stuff she did carry was already packed. so all they could do was... well. get their butts moving-- wait, no, shit, checking out of the inn. give her a few minutes-

okay they're good. )

Sounds like a plan. Ah- so, to get to the place the others are in, we're going to have to ride something called a train. It's... a big metal box that glides on a track, and it goes faster than almost any pokémon. It might be a little scary, but it's gonna be okay. Okay?

( look his world has knights and shit, he has definitely never seen a train and she doesn't want to spook him. )

[lightningfang]

[Will he ever get used to all of this human stuff? Doubtful. This is needlessly complicated. Whatever happened to just... leaving someone else's territory and letting your absence speak for itself? Precious time is wasting away!

Ugh. And this train business sounds even worse. A moving metal box? People have the most horrifying ideas...

It's for Sylvain. He just has to keep telling himself that.]

Okay. I... trust you.

[fortuna_tenax]

( after a moment of observing razor- the way he quietly guards himself, the reservation in the way his mouth thins out- jinx reaches out and quietly squeezes his hand in her own. )

Hey, it's gonna be okay. I'll be right there, too.
