[It clicks on because there is a very, VERY excited Rufflet bouncing at the screen. Or rather, on it, seeing as the little bird type has hopped on the bedside table. It's the pokécenter in Violet, and from the looks of it, the little bird's trainer is definitely awake.
And... actually quite confused. But upon the soft, eager squawking of the Rufflet, Miyako finally turns to look at him and just reaches her arms forward. It bounces over and hops in her lap, and she just pets his feathers, reaching for her glasses. Once she gets those on her face, her hand stretches back out for the gear.]
Jeez, Ruffles, you turned it on. See that light? It's blinking.
[He cooed at her, but after a quick moment of shoving his feathers in her face as some odd, nuzzling display of affection, he bounces back over to the table. However, his talon hits it, and the gear spins right off the table and... behind it. There's a very pretty sight of the wall.]
Ah! Ruffles, what are you doing?! Just sit on the pillow! [More commotion as the girl scrambles out of bed, reaching for the gear--which she accidentally pushes even further over, as seen by the very faint moving of the strip of light above. And in her struggles, there's a sudden loud beep as the little Rufflet accidentally sets off the Nurse Call button, followed by a thud as Miyako smacks her arm and her chin on the floor in surprise.]
Ua! Oww... That hurt... [Whatever. Still going for this gear, which is slowly but steadily moving away with every touch.] And I can't reach it!
[And with the loud commotion of the beeps and a Nurse Joy running into the room to tell her to get back into the bed, the gear times out and ends the connection.]

[action]
H-hi, Ken-kun!
[Too bad Joy won't let this conversation start off right. Already fussing over young kids wasting their energy, she's quick to tell Ken to hold on just so she can force Miyako back over to the bed. The struggling doesn't work too well, and within a minute she's sitting back in the bed with the covers drawn, and the nurse is making her way out to go check on charts or whatnot. Miyako waits until she's gone before hopping right back out.]
...sorry about that. I... kind of dropped my gear.
[action]
[He's just retreated to this corner here since he doesn't want to be in the nurse's way, but once that's taken care of he'll glance about, intending to retrieve said Gear for her.
But wait, is that really what's important right now??]
--you're awake.
[This kid once had magazine articles written about his intelligence.]
[action]
The gear could wait. Since she had a buddy here, now came time for awkward questions!]
Yep. I'm up! Um... How long was I asleep? I don't remember being here...
[action]
[He looks away for a moment.]
Weeks. We - brought you here, though...everyone assured me it - wasn't abnormal....
You're - really all right?
[He's able to look at you for that, though. He's worried.
About all kinds of things! What else is new.][action]
[She just stares at him for a moment in complete shock. She had been asleep for weeks!?
That has her moving back to the bed to sit down--just narrowly squashing her little bird, who hops out of the way just in time to avoid it with a squeak--and she finds herself looking between him and the floor.]
Well... I guess it makes sense... I... think. I mean, I was at home, and--
[That was right. Staring at Ken, she just gives it time to process. Fighting the Kaiser--fighting Ken himself--and Arachnemon--seeing BlackWarGreymon in Kyoto, and...
And just as her mind's trying to process everything, she just starts blurting things out.]
I... I went home. I totally went home, and you--You're not the Kaiser anymore! And I totally--oh man. I slapped you. Ken I am so sorry I slapped you! Oh my god I can't believe I did that.
[action]
She's not all the way caught up to him, it sounds. But he knows where she is now. So he'll shake his head graciously.]
You - didn't do anything that wasn't deserved.
[And only now is it really sinking in that she's awake, she's fine, if she's worrying about things like this than that means she's fully herself and fully here, after keeping vigil his friend is finally all right....
....even if he slapped her earlier himself....
His shoulders relax.]
It's - been difficult, then. For you, back home.
[action]
Looking back to the floor, she sighs softly.]
It was... busy. Kind of difficult, but... You're with us. And all of us can handle it. So it's okay. [Oh. Her Gear was still going off... She just sighed loudly.]
Silly bird, knocking my things over! Ruffles, you tell me - how am I supposed to get that?
[action]
[He crouches on the floor and tries to reach the Gear - his arms are longer, so maybe....
There it is! Or, no, almost -
Ken's face sets and he reaches again. His fingers close around the Gear, and he pulls it out - potentially a little dusty, depending how thorough the cleaning staff is here (?).
Sitting up, he offers it up to her as his Eevee comes over and starts pawing his leg. CLEARLY HE IS DOWN HERE TO PLAY.]
Here.
[action]
Blushing, she takes it from him.] T-thanks! You didn't have to do that... But... thanks.
[But since Miyako's let him go, Ruffles immediately mistakes the Eevee as his new playmate an hops over. It's everyone-plays-with-Ken time today! OH GOSH.]
[action] DW I WAS NOT READY
[But then, sudden birds! What do?!
Kind of chuckle and stare and lean away, apparently, reaching over to pat the Pokémon.]
Ah, hello....did you miss your trainer?
[EEVEE IS ALSO TOTALLY UP FOR PLAYING. HI LOOK, SHE'S WIGGLING HER TAIL AND EVERYTHING.]
[action] LOLOL DW just loves to jump the gun with you!
[That was adorable. If she could, she'd sit there and just watch Ken play with the two little animals, but she feels a little bad already. So she moves down to kneel next to him. After all, she's up, might as well!
But the Rufflet, after the initial squawk of surprise at the patting, coos for just a second before getting distracted by the moving tail.
This little thing is probably Miyako's most ADHD pokémon yet, and it's quick to jump for the Eevee. Miyako reaches out to try and catch him before he lands, but by the delay in realizing what he was doing and trying to act on it, she wasn't going to make it in time. Watch out, Eevee!]
[action] It has a vendetta against Ken or something.
Ken just stares - what is this, he doesn't even. But then, bit by bit, he starts to crack up. It's one part amusement, one part absurdity, and one part relief: Miyako's all right. Everything's going to be fine. And look, instead of a crisis, there's....
He doesn't even seem aware he's laughing.]
[action] But how can any site have a vendetta against this poor boy?
Meanwhile, Miyako's eyes are drawn from the happy pokémon to the happy trainer next to her. There was Ken, laughing. That adorable chuckle, something she had never heard from him before--here or back in their home world--was enough to have her gasping softly.]
You're really cute when you laugh, Ken-kun!
[action] Being Ken is suffering.
For his part, Ken's voice gets stuck in his throat; catching himself; he coughs and looks away.]
Uh- um....yes, I've been told....
[Think of something to say something to say quick come on boy now....
Looking down, he notices the bags of food where he's left them sit, preoccupied with Miyako.]
--ah. Are you hungry? I - don't have much, but...
[And he climbs to his feet to put the bags on the bedside table. Does she want company? To be left alone to adjust? He just doesn't know! He can't tell.]
[action] delicious suffering tears!!
~So adorable~. Her fangirling had been more subdued, but definitely still in the back of her mind. For now... food? She perks up at that, nodding quickly as she hurries to stand, going to peer over herself.]
Okay! What did you bring?
[action] ;a;
...not much.
[Rather plain sandwiches packed conbini-style, an iced tea, an apple. Pokémon food for Eevee, which he'll lay out for whenever the two playmates get hungry.]
I - don't have much of an appetite, so....But you're welcome to it, as much as you'd like.
[action] /holds his hand!
Thank you!
[It works for her. Sitting back on the bed, she takes a bite and smiles toothlessly, cheeks puffed as she chewed. These were good enough for her! Reaching over, she pat the bed next to him. Sit with her, Ken!]
[action] /p-physical contact!! WHAT DO
He will continue to stare at you as you eat, however, with a somewhat
derpysilly smile on his face. You're all right. You're up, and moving about - and soon you'll have gotten some food in your stomach....Everything's really okay now.]
[action] SMILE EVEN MORE
But as she catches Ken just watching her, her cheeks turn red and she smiles nervously.]
W-what? Do I have something on my face already?
[She starts swatting at her cheeks. Already thinking she's embarrassing herself, gosh!]
