[Bulba was one of the people left missing a friend that had decided to follow their feet outside the school. He was a little down that Gladys' smiles weren't around to help brighten his days anymore, but he decided to take this matter into his own hands. If one friend was gone, that just meant he had to get closer to some of the ones he had.]

Hey! Would you be up for playing some games soon? And is it okay if I bring my brother along? I think you'd get along with him pretty well.

Hey hey do you want to play some games some time? There's a guy I think you'd get along pretty well with.

((tl;dr: Max went missing for a month. Max has a crazy-looking sunburnt look on his forearms and face. After being in some crazy fantasy Japanland for the last year, Max can now make nails, when provided with raw materials and a forge. He gave some to Char anonymously. ))

Hey, I'm real sorry I was gone for a month. I fell into a green warp thing and I didn't get back until now. Celibi or whatever. Slowpoke was in my cargo pocket so I had company anyway. If I missed out on anything we had planned, I apologize for not bein' here. Vinnie, I'm sorry I left you without a commander. Smash Fundamentals students, I'm sorry I left you without a teacher or a class or nothin'.

If somebody could fill me in on whatever's happened since I was gone, I'd appreciate it.
