Ohritori Vacation!

[This morning, if you tune in to Ken's Pokemon Talk on the radio, you'll probably hear him announce the program will be on break for the next two weeks while he goes on vacation! And as soon as the program ends, he hops on a boat and is off to Ohritori Island.]

A. GATEWAY PORT

[You can see him arriving at Gateway Port in Turnbloom City, looking pale as he weakly hobbles off a boat and immediately falls onto his knees and hands on the pier, taking deep breaths and looking like he's been suffering from seasickness for the entire journey.]

It's finally over...! Ohritori Island, I'm so glad to see you...

B. POKEMON CENTER

[Once he's rested from his journey, he'll be sitting at the cafe in the Pokemon Center with an ice tea, glancing around somewhat restlessly. A green Ledyba is sitting at his table, eating Berry slices. Spotting you, Ken will smile and wave.

Excuse me, can I ask you a question?

C. ROUTE 1

[Later, Ken can be seen at Route 1 with his Cubburn. He'll find Professor Banyan's laboratory, he'll just wander near it for a while, glancing at the house sometimes like he's trying to gather the courage to approach. Eventually, he'll go up to the door, raise his hand to knock... then hesitates, lowering his hand again. His Cubburn looks up at him with a whine, and Ken sighs.]

I'll do it, just give me a moment...

D. WILDCARD

[Ken can also be seen wandering all around Ohritori Island during his vacation! He doesn't visit the more dangerous places deep in the caves or the forests, but he'll be checking out the tourist spots. Theater Hall, Stardust Beach, the different farms on Gilterrace Town, Route 2 and Route 3; and the Wildflower Cape. Meet him however you want! Also, feel free to recognize his voice from radio!]

When Ai runs out, Gold's first instinct is to get between her and Ken, but he doesn't tell her to go back inside. She's talking, after all, so Gold listens. Gold is nearly tearing up himself, but he tries to calm down for Ai's sake. He didn't realize she was listening. He must've scared her with all that yelling. It's a horrible feeling.

Gold crouches in front of Ai as she's talking and offers his hands to hold for comfort. He doesn't want to interrupt her, so he just listens.

...If Ai thinks he's all right, maybe he's all right. But it seems like he really didn't know for sure Gold lived here until Ai told him. (Jury's still out on Attila, though, and Gold's definitely going to get back to him about that later.)

"Giovanni?" Gold asks after Ai's done speaking. The familiar name and the weight Ai seemed to put on it surprised him. "The, uh... ex-boss guy Team Rocket loves to talk about? What's he got to do with anything?"

Well, that's not really the important part of what Ai said, to Gold, anyway.

"Sorry if I scared you, Ai. If you think he's not a bad person, I'll hear him out." He gives Ai a soft smile, then glances at Ken with a look that says 'I'm giving you a chance, don't waste it.'
