[Here's someone who hasn't been on the network so much lately. When Asami appears on the camera, anyone who hasn't seen her recently will notice that she looks a bit older.]
I finished it!
[Stepping away from the camera, she reveals a hotel courtyard with various tools and scraps scattered about. A metal contraption that appears to be some kind of battery sits a safe distance away at the center of the shot.]
At home, we employ lightningbenders to make our electricity. They shoot energy straight into batteries, and it can be stored efficiently without having to burn coal. I'm hoping I can get something to work similarly with Pokémon's electric attacks.
[She glances off camera.]
When you're ready, Supāku.
[A Flaafy shuffles onto the camera, winds up, and releases an electric attack at the metal conductors of Asami's invention. After several moments, an indicator meter on the device's facade turns to maximum, and the Flaafy stops.]
I think it worked!
[Asami trots over to the device with another 'Gear in hand (sorry Korra, she had to steal yours for science purposes) and plugs it in.]
It's charging!
[She turns back to the camera.]
I'm hoping I can continue working with this idea and eventually come up with something small enough for trainers to keep on their person while they're traveling. The technology here is evolved so much farther than at home, I think it might be possible.

T-Thank you. Really. nobody's ever said that to me before... [Having such good friends... Elsa never thought that would happen to her.] And I understand. The thought of never seeing any of you again when I return... it hurts.
[C'MON ELSA STOP BEING SO PESSIMISTIC]
But hey... you're a genius inventor, right? I'm sure you'll figure out some way for all of us to keep in touch even after we return home!

It's no problem. Really. I'm glad to be your friend.
[She doesn't linger on the whole nobody's ever said that bit. Her own curiosity wasn't important, even if it was well intended.]
Ripping holes in the universe is more Korra's specialty. I'll see about getting her on that, though.

okay well she doesn't outright cry this time. Just. Gets a little misty-eyed. Even after this long, Elsa's kind of doubted she's been a very good friend to all the people she came to know in Johto, so hearing this is just.... lifting a weight she didn't even know was there off her shoulders.]
R... Really now... [There's a story there. She's not sure if it's good to ask just yet.] Well then, if it's the two of you working together, you'll most definitely figure something out.
