You have nothing to apologize for.

You didn't do anything wrong.

Things are just confusing.

[whatsacactus]

[He waits a minute, debating, then switches to video. He's younger than Romelle met him, smaller. More unsure of who he is.]

You know me in the future right?

It... keeps happening here. So... I'm sorry.

[aloneintheuniverse]

[It takes her a moment to switch the video back, Romelle now seated with her Mienfoo pressed up against her side.]

I do, yes.

You..you don't have to apologize though, Keith. Really it's alright. I know things are strange here.

[whatsacactus]

[He watches for a long moment. Silent. Weighing the words.]

I just wanted to say it.

How do I know you?

[aloneintheuniverse]

[That has Romelle biting her lip.]

...You found your way to the colony I lived on. We ended up traveling back to the Castle of Lions together after tracking down some information that we both needed.

[It was the easiest way to sum it up without giving too much away. She just..left a few key details out. That's all.]

[whatsacactus]

Sounds like I was able to help. 'm glad.

[Yeah, he's a stark contrast to the Keith who spent two years at peace with his mother.]

I didn't get your name?

[aloneintheuniverse]

I'm Romelle.

[He may be different from the Keith she knew but that's alright.

She still trusts him. Considers him a friend.]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Keith.

[whatsacactus]

You too, Romelle. Everyone's probably glad you're here.

[Oh but now he sees Mienfoo.]

...What starter is that.

[aloneintheuniverse]

I think everyone's more confused than anything.

[She blinks and looks at her starter who makes a noise.]

Oh, it's..called a Mienfoo, I believe it's pronounced. I decided to name her Lia.

[whatsacactus]

That happens.

Hm. [He leans in a little closer, as if it does anything for him but smiles.] She's cute.

[aloneintheuniverse]

[Romelle beams and her Mienfoo squeaks, paws covering her face.]

Isn't she? I think she's adorable! I can't wait to find more Pokemon and see what they all look like!

[She happily wraps an arm around Lia.]

What was your starter, Keith?

[whatsacactus]

[Oh Romelle is cute too. What a pair.

Torracat sniffs onto the screen and that gets Keith chuckling.]

Mine was a Litten. A - black kitten that spits fire. She evolved into a Torracat, this girl here.

[aloneintheuniverse]

Oh Keith she's adorable!!

[Apparently not even aliens can resist an adorable feline.]

Hello Torracat! You are very lovely! I hope you're taking good care of Keith. He and the others like to get themselves into a lot of trouble sometimes.

[whatsacactus]

[Okay, that gets Keith smiling.]

Yeah, it sounded like we do that. Don't worry, she was itching to fight the day I got her. [She lets out a proud Toooorra! in response. She was doing her very best to protect her trainer, thank you for noticing, stranger.]
