[pokemontrainer]

[Today Smash Academy, you get a video from one particular Pokemon Trainer. He looks at the camera, looking as if he is going to say something. Then he thinks better of it, and stays silent.

His eyes glance sideways to look at something off the screen, before sighing quietly. Perhaps it was better to say nothing at all.

Without another word, Red simply looks forlorn at the feed for a moment longer before switching it off.

The meaning of this message is up to you to ponder, dear viewer.]

[Admittedly, it was very odd being in this position. Marie was used to being on the other side; venting his problems and insecurities to his trainer, not the other way around. It wasn't that he was uncomfortable with it, moreso that he was unsure of what to do. He wasn't the type to give out advice. That was more Vinnie's thing. He wasn't going to be able to calmly walk Red through his problems; although Koji would have been able to.

Marie unconsciously mimicked Red's deep breath. The hand against Red's back went still, and Marie leaned the bridge of his nose against the top of his trainer's head. He was silent for what he thought was probably a little too long.]

It wasn't you. You're a good trainer...
