Chapter 32: The Shiniest Lightbulb

...being thrown in the air at such speed wasn't as uncomfortable as I thought, just painful...

However, if possible...I would like to not be thrown away again like this again...or at the very least I would hope they give me time to prepare next time...

However, it seem Volo didn't lie to me, as he did send every meltan to a place where I could detect multiple electrical connections.

...now what?

...I guess I should ask Iono.

I put my attention into Pandora's vision, expecting to see Pandora in a bad mood, but instead I only saw...Mina?

...why is Pandora so close to her? It's like he is in her arms...wait! He is! Is accepted to be held by someone else!?

And why is she moving her hand near...oh no! She's petting Pandora! Why is he letting her pat him? Wasn't I the only one allowed to do that?

"Kyu, miku mymi! (Eh, so much better than my cheating friend!)"

Oh...I spent too much connecting with meltan didn't I? Now he's getting petty.

Happily for me, Mina stopped her petting and looked toward me, and despite not having moved once since I came back to my senses, she was still able to notice that I was there. "Ah, you're awake now." Without even considering Pandora's feelings, she put him back on my shoulder.

Without much surprise, he seemed dissatisfied with my presence, but just a single pat from me made him more docile.

I'm sorry Pandora...but I wanted to make another friend...

"Hyu...kyu...mu, mimi! (Hrm...I want two poképuff...no, two malassada!)

...you can have as many as you want Pandora...but I can try my best to collect as many as desire...it shouldn't be too painful to gather them either.

"...ki... (...if you don't mind...).

I never will.

Also, I will have to connect to this meltan again...so please be patient, and I promise I will add a one-hour patting session tonight.

"...mi. (You're lucky I love you.)

Thank you, Pandora, I promise I will try to not make it too long.

I promised as I petted his head, and even if he tried to act as if he didn't care, I knew he liked it a lot.

After this was resolved, I looked back in front of me, and noticed that only Mina and Sabrina stayed near me, the other were all gone...well, I guess Iono was still crying on the floor, but she wasn't in the original group, so I didn't count her.

"If you're wondering where the other is, well they had to leave otherwise they will be late for the banquet, but no matter what we tried, you didn't move, so me and Sabrina decided to wait for you to wake up...not like I care about being late either, nor does she actually." She said while gazing at Sabrina who showed no change in expression from being mentioned.

But it seems I made them worried about me...I'm such a failure...

"Oh right, don't worry about sleeping while standing, It's also happens that I'm too tired so I just sleep. It's not the most comfortable, but sometimes you just can't resist, so don't worry about it." She threw me a thumb up, but I shook my head.

Mina leaned her head to the side in confusion, so I explained to her the reason for my action. "I wasn't sleeping, I was trying to see if I could reach any signal outside of the Sanctuary to help her."
