[Pidge makes a huge gesture of surrender with her hands, prompting Rover to hop out of her lap and seek shelter in the corner of the bed.]
The best guess that anyone has is that some Pokémon with the ability to alter and bend reality is the one that brought us all here, and you can imagine how well the search for it has gone. [And Keith can probably guess from the way Pidge wrinkles her nose that this isn't her favorite theory.]
As for any actual physical evidence? The only lead is that house we all show up in when we get here. But no one can get back in, and if anyone's tried to destroy it they clearly haven't succeeded. No one knows who that fake "mom" figure is, or has ever even seen her again.
[She groans, leaning forward and wiping her hands down her face, knocking her glasses askew.] I've been here for a year. Shiro's been here for nearly four. The people who've been sent back to their homes didn't exactly leave notes on how they did it. All we can do is- is wait.
[well bye rover....?? keith's eyes briefly follow the birb goes zooming off to safety, then quickly snap back to pidge. this time, he takes a few moments to organize his thoughts before responding. his voice is calmer when he speaks -- no apology in sight yet, but decidedly less accusatory and more civil.]
And you haven't noticed any patterns or common links between the people who've disappeared?
[a year's a long time to be collecting this kind of data. four, if shiro's been keeping an eye on the situation.]
There has to be a better strategy than just waiting.
