[ Hey guys, let's see what Junpei has to say today! He's using the 'Gear while walking somewhere, it seems. ]

Uh, hi, everyone. I guess I must've blacked out for the past few days or something....I don't even remember how I wound up here in Cianwood.

But I need to figure out how to get back to Goldenrod. I left some of my stuff there, including my map, as well as somebody pretty important. I mean, I doubt it'll be that difficult to find my way, but it'd be nice to be pointed in the right direction.

[ He stops walking for a moment, and focuses on something beyond the camera. ]

Oh, give me a minute. That person looks like they might know which way I should go.

[ The feed clicks off for a few minutes, during which Junpei presumably asks for the directions back to Goldenrod.

When the feed eventually turns back on, though, Junpei looks just the littlest bit frazzled. But only a little bit. Really. ]

Apparently, the only way out of here is by ferry or by surfing, so, uh.....guess I'm not going back to Goldenrod?

Then, uh......guess I'll have to get used to Cianwood. Ahaha.

Oh, come on. It can't be all that bad.

I don't feel much like risking my life again.

... Say what? [Risk his life?]

...Uh. [ How to explain this... ] I was on a sinking ship once. Kind of.

[...] How can you be kind of on a sinking ship once?

...It's a long story.

[Hrm.] Well, I have been hearing some people offering to help others get back to mainland through flying or surfing. If you can catch them before they leave, you should be able to get back.

That might be my best bet. I'll have to go see if I can find any of them...

Good luck with that.

What will you do if you don't find them though?

Make myself comfortable here, I guess. Not much else I can do.

That much of a stigma against boats?

I'd rather be safe than sorry.

It's your loss, but it's going to be a problem if you know someone on the mainland and you can't even get there.

...You know, somehow, I think she'd understand. Besides, a long-distance relationship can't be that difficult....

... Wait, so you're leaving a girl hanging because you're too afraid to ride on a perfectly harmless boat? [Okay, he's never ridden it, but he suspects it's perfectly harmless.]

I wouldn't leave her hanging! I just....don't like sinking ships.

But if you're not going to go back to the mainland on the off-chance there's no other way of going back, then you're leaving her alone.

She won't be alone. I mean, there's someone else there with her. She'll be fine.

... Are you sure you'll be okay with just that?

...We can make it work. I think.

There's really no convincing you to go and take a ferry, huh?

Nope. I'll do anything but that.

Well--- I'm sure Cianwood isn't so bad, on the off-chance you can't figure a way off.
