[It is one of those rare moments that Fluttershy herself is on camera as the feed opens, looking into the screen somewhat shyly, but still cheerful.]

H...H-Hello...um. [She takes a moment to clear her throat and tries again.]

For...my friends that... [She hesitates for a moment, a slight frown on her lips as certain words come to mind, before she decides on different ones to say.] I just...wanted to let you guys know that...I'm going to be heading out of town...if you...don't already know, that is...

Chris and Martin are...taking me outside of Hospitown...to learn about wilderness survival. I'm not sure how long it'll take, or...how long we'll be gone...I just...wanted to let people know so that...no one worries.

I-I'll...still be in touch, though. I'll have my D-Terminal, and I'll be calling people whenever I get the chance...So if anyone needs to reach me...it should be fine.

Uh...th-that's...it, I guess...

[There's a glimpse of her blushing before the feed is off.]

Comments

[strengthinkindness]

The Kratt Brothers...Chris and Martin.

And us too, of course! Plus their partners!

[onemorechapter]

Naturally. [The softest chuckle.]

I don't think I've met them yet. What are they like?

[strengthinkindness]

Oh, they're very nice...! Back home, they travel a lot to study animals.

[onemorechapter]

Sounds like they might be the right guys to teach you about the wilderness.

[Granted not many people in her world go out into the wild because of the monsters, but she can imagine what kind of skills doing so would take.]

[strengthinkindness]

[She nodded.] That's why I asked them if I could go with them. They were already doing some traveling before, and Chris had asked if I wanted to go with them, but I was worried about going.

[onemorechapter]

Worried? About what?

[strengthinkindness]

[She hesitated for a moment.] Just...about going. Being...out there...I...get scared of things pretty easily...

[onemorechapter]

There's nothing wrong with that. [She seems momentarily surprised she spoke up in the first place, but then continued on.] Different people have different strengths.

[strengthinkindness]

[Glancing up, she gave a small smile.] That's true...Knowing about nature is one of mine, but...being out and trying to survive in it is...not.

[onemorechapter]

Ohh, I see. So it's like... rounding off your knowledge.

[strengthinkindness]

Something like that, I guess...

[onemorechapter]

Then I doubly hope you learn a lot.

[strengthinkindness]

Oh, thank you...

[Her voice trailed off somewhat then, a bit questioningly.]

[onemorechapter]

[She blinked, then tilted her head down a bit, though still smiling lightly.]

Oh, it's just.. Gabumon.

[strengthinkindness]

[Choco can't help but pop up.] You don't have a name?

[onemorechapter]

I haven't really thought of one yet. [She shrugged lightly.]

[strengthinkindness]

Oh...You should! It's nice having a name!

[onemorechapter]

That's alright, I haven't minded going without a name so far...

[strengthinkindness]

No really, having a name is great! Don't worry, we'll think of one for you!

[Fluttershy blinked, a little surprised.]

[onemorechapter]

[Despite her words, she brightens a bit at hearing that.] Really?

[Blake doesn't say anything, but she seems to be smiling.]

[strengthinkindness]

Yeah! We'd be happy to! Right, Fluttershy?

[He glanced at her as he asked, and she responded with a smile as she looks back at the Gabumon.]

I...wouldn't mind doing it. Only if it's okay with both of you, though...

[onemorechapter]

I don't see why not.

[strengthinkindness]

[Fluttershy nodded.] All right...I'll try to think of a good name...

[onemorechapter]

..Thank you.

[strengthinkindness]

You're welcome.
