[Today, Asuma looks uncharacteristically serious. By his sides are two new Pokémon - a Swablu and a Ivysaur. The two seem to be taking comfort in one another's presence for now.]

...It seems that many people have been disappearing as of late. I have two more to report.

The first is a young boy who was missing an arm. His name was Tetsu.

[Or at least, that's what he information on the Ivysaur indicated.]

The other was a quiet boy with white hair who worked at the Breeding Centre. Mytho.

[The Swablu gives an unhappy cry at the mention of this, prompting Asuma to give her a few comforting pets.]

...I will be taking care of these two myself. I just wanted to let others know in case they were wondering what happened.

Thank you for your time.

Are you all right...? [[He's not sure how close Asuma was to those two, but...]]

[He offers a wan smile.]

I will be fine. I think it was probably more surprising than anything else.

[shiromadoushi]

Un... things like that always are, I think.

[youngforhisage]

Most likely.

Although I have to wonder why it has become so prevalent...

[Video]

[shiromadoushi]

I don't know... [[sighs deeply]] It's a little worrying, really...

[Video]

[youngforhisage]

Yes... And more worrying, it's hard to say if it's for better or worse.

[Video] Whoops, sorry for the delay!

[shiromadoushi]

I guess... it would depend if that person wanted to go home or not, wouldn't it...?

[Video] It's fine! I've been slow myself ^^;

[youngforhisage]

Right. There are some who may have wanted to go home, but there could also have been just as many who had their own reasons for wanting to stay.
