Locked Text to Hagakure
[Early in the morning Hagakure is going to receive a private text message from an ID he hasn't seen in awhile.]
dude PLS tell me ur still in goldenrod. im in sum srs shit, u gotta help me!
[Apologies for the terrible spelling Hagakure but hey, at least it's legible.]
[Later in the day after Hagakure has given him the lowdown on who's here and who's not and what he's missed, Leon finds himself surprisingly back at Rocket Base, lying on his bed and staring at the ceiling of his new room. It's not that he doesn't want to go back to the house that he shares with his classmates, but things...have gotten complicated now that a certain idol has arrived.
Thinking about what happened...that always made him feel sick. He really wants absolutely nothing to do with Maizono but he knows that just like how his classmates extended an olive branch to him back in his early days here, that they'll probably do the same for her as well. There's no escaping that she'll probably get an invite to the house, that everyone will try to make nice with Maizono and help her adjust to life here. And the truth is that he can't...exactly complain about that, because that'd be hypocritical of him. He himself had tried to get everyone executed to save his own skin. He wasn't exactly blameless in that regard...but he knows that if he sees her there will be words and very unpleasant confrontations and accusations and good god that would create one hell of a messy and painful situation for the remainder of his classmates, wouldn't it? He could care less about what Maizono feels, boo fucking hoo, cry him a river, but that kind of stressful situation isn't what the rest deserves. Except maybe Celes, but that's because Celes would probably be getting her kicks from seeing Leon riled up and hell no is he giving her that satisfaction!
Fuckin' hell...[He groans aloud and presses a hand to his head.] This frickin' sucks! Just what am I supposed to do, huh?
[If he expected the ceiling to magically give him his answer then he's sadly been let down.
A few seconds pass before Leon decides to sit up and reach for his Pokegear. He's not a thinker or a philopher though, and brooding on this subject is really putting a damper on his mood. He should be happy that he's back, god damn it! Even if it's part of an evil organization but he's sure he'll be able to figure a way out somehow! And he has friends that he can count on too, right? He's...he's sure things will be OK. He'll make them ok!
And speaking of those friends though...he's so far only spoken to Hagakure. Might as well take the opportunity to touch base with everyone else. He's about to make a public call when thankfully, he remembers that Maizono would be able to see it too. He frowns; really it's such a hassle and why should he even be thinking about what she'd feel anyway, but nevertheless he makes the necessary setting adjustments and sends out the call.]
Audio, locked from Maizono but open to everyone else
What up guys, guess who's back? That's right, there's nothin' that can keep me down for good. How've you all been? Heh, I bet your lives have been a hella lot more boring without the awesome Leon Kuwata around! Also if any of you guys have my old Pokemon you better give'em back stat, I've gotta go get my badges back!!

[private text]
And he nearly falls out of bed when he actually checks to see who could be bothering him this early in the morning.
Mind swirling with shock, excitement and mild panic, he furiously types up a response.]
Kuwata-chi??? Is that seriously you?
[...actually...
While normally he'd think something like this was some kind of prank—maybe a Ghost type got into his phone again?—this time he's got the feeling that this is completely real. His buddy Leon is actually back in Johto...and he needs help, apparently?
Hagakure quickly sends another text soon after that first one.]
Never mind that. Yeah I'm in Goldenrod. What do you mean you're in serious crap? Do you need a lift from New Bark??
[Private text]
[Private text]
[Is this really something Leon would kid about though...
But ugh, if that's true, that just adds to how complicated this is all going to be. Maizono arrived just a few weeks ago, so that's already super bad for Leon, and now he's in Team Rocket too...
Hagakure's kind of glad Leon checked in right away. This is some serious shit.]
Okay calm down dude. I think it's totally random if you end up there. I know somebody else this happened to and he's not that bad of a dude. [HE...PROBABLY DIDN'T KILL A PERSON THOUGH. LEON...] We'll figure something out!
Do you want to meet up somewhere?? I can bring Touru and Masahiro with. I got them when you left.

Private Text to Action
[And for once in his life Leon is on time for this engagement. He's lurking furtively at a bench, pacing about and clearly very agitated.]
no subject
W-Whoa, guys! Hold up...!
[Apparently now's not the time to stop and just marvel at the fact that Leon's actually here. After like seven months...he's actually back. It feels so weird, but not unwelcome.
He can't help but smile when he catches up and reaches Leon. It's not the ideal situation, but hey. That's his bro right there!]
Yo. Hope I didn't keep you waiting.
no subject
[Leon's completely bowled over by his Pokemon. Having knocked him onto his back from charging him, Masahiro and Touru are over the moon to see their trainer back that they're jumping all over him. Despite seeing a few stars from having slammed his head against the wooden seat, Leon's glad to see them too. He winces a little as he pulls himself back up, holding the two excited Pokemon in his arms.]
Nice to see you guys too.
[...don't mind if he cuddles them a little. Because cuddles are totally not for cool guys. But he'll make an exception this time.
And that's when he hears Hagakure's voice. Looking up, he raises a hand to greet his classmate.]
Yo! Nah, I just got here.
[His Pokemon climb out of his lap and continue to dance around him. Leon stands up and approaches Hagakure, hands in his pockets and looking slightly embarrassed that he'd been caught cuddling his Pokemon.]
Man, I'm glad to see you. I don't know who else I'd be able to call if ya weren't here.
no subject
A bunch of us are still around so you could've called any of them, but yeah I haven't left the whole time you've been gone.
[Gone to...nowhere, really. Back home, Leon had nothing to return to because he had been executed. Hagakure felt really bad when Leon first left, so what he says next has a lot of weight to it.]
I know it's not an ideal re-entrance for you, but it's good to have you back, Kuwata-chi.
