[So this is absolutely not immediately after everyone returned from that whole Hisui mess, but a day or two after, when Bucciarati and his group are on the ferry to Pallet Town.]
Hey. I just wanted to check in with you now that we're all back from that little... misadventure. How are you doing after all that?
Jolyne? Mmmmm. If you haven't spoken to her a lot, you'll want to stick to something that isn't too personal; otherwise it might get her feeling kinda freaked out about it, you know?

[At first he's worried he's made a mistake in telling Carly this. Because of course he's going to tell Ryan that. That's the problem. Carly's been nice to him so far, but he doesn't know her well enough to feel totally confident he can trust her.
It's a relief when she doesn't make him answer that before offering her support. Though... wife? That's a thing you can do here? The future continues to blow his mind.]
I have to tell him. We've known each other our entire lives. Even if I wanted to hide it from him he'd know something's up.
[No one knows him better than Ryan, and while historically they haven't always been the best at talking out their problems that's something they've worked on a lot over the past year or so. He's not willing to throw away the progress they've made for the sake of an organisation he didn't even choose to be part of.]
We're still the bad guys. I don't think he'll hate me, but... I don't want Ryan to be disappointed in me, either.
...Y'know you might have better luck getting Emporio for that though? It'll take me ages to get back there, I'm in the Islands! Where are you right now?
Jolyne you Definitely need to contact the kid instead, I'd have to ferry to Olivine before porting over- all he has to do is warp and he'll be there, last I heard he was planning to be in Goldenrod right now!
[At some point on Christmas day, Bucciarati will hand over a gift for Carly--a neck pillow with a built-in massager, as well as a gift card for an online retailer.]

Well I made it back home. I assume you guys are still on the ferry, given the time...
The house feels emptier than I expected it to.

...It's a lot. But I got the Soul and Marsh badges today!
[He starts trying to get them out to show them. Volare looks very concerned as Narancia does this.]

Gonna be honest it's kinda hard to think of stuff in this place. It's pretty good at handing stuff like that on a platter...

At least that handles what I was having trouble with.
While we're on the topic, is there anything you want me to bring for Christmas in terms of food or the like?

And there's obviously a difference there, but friends are important...
