Most of the times Rainbow seems to have visited were relatively near, pretty much the same. The Dark Times gated her travels too far back, and she was wary of going too far into the future. So... it really wasn't that much different.
Courier deliveries were mostly letters, given that they were light and information was hard to transfer (radio towers seem like they would be a good thing to figure out how to set up), but occasionally little sentimental gifts and baubles were given from one person to another who was away for some reason or another.
From what Bea can gather about Rainbow's father, it's mostly the same as the last time she'd talked about him. Always restless, but caring. Eager to support the people around him... even if sometimes that encouragement ends up being a bit too hard of a push. But he's always willing to be there for the fall, too.
The Genesect had mostly just laid down on the grass, resting, or watching, or something, before it's recalled. And so, the pair begin the trek back down.
"Did you have any place like this?" Rainbow asks, as they walk. "Like... a place just for you to relax, and not have to worry?"

I'm not going to say it was damage, but it was damage.

"No, not really." She squinted as she thought on the question. "Before I set out on my journey, maybe my bedroom? I had everything I needed to focus, it was clean and sterile. Though..." Trailing off as something seemed to spark. "When I got the news about having to go on a journey to advance my career as a researcher, I was very agitated."
Recounting, Bee smiled. "I found a grove of berry trees not far from Fallarbor, just rife with butterfly Pokemon of all shapes, colors, and sizes. I had never seen anything like it before. It did become a favorite spot to return to until they migrated for the year."

"Oh, that sounds lovely," Rainbow says. "I'd have loved to see that."
The rest of the day pretty much culminates in a lot of running back and forth between the smith's and the cobbler's, both who seem to take the odd request with good humor... even if it does take a lot of coordination. But, by the end of the day, she does have her metal-soled shoes, fitted well. Even if they feel different to the synthetic ones she's used to. Not to mention unbalanced, with the metal.

As expected, walking in heels shifts her center of gravity, and metal soles make them uncomfortable. Dubbing them her 'flying shoes', she is all too happy to get out of them and back into her usual daily wear. Having a little more height on Rainbow was nice in its own right though. "Well, we've safely resolved the issue of flight, and remaining attached to Genesect while it moves. That leaves us tomorrow to... I don't know. I guess we could ask around and see if any of the flyers here on Mossdeep intended to come? Since it's voluntary, I suspect we'll see limited assistance. I wouldn't want to force anyone regardless."

"We could, I guess..." Rainbow says. "But, I dunno. It sounds like the word is going to already go out to the people who actually can fight. So anyone we'd be talking to and convincing would just be someone without really any training."
Rainbow does seem a little bit miffed at the still additional height Bea has on her. "You did not need that," she complains. "Look at how high I have to be just for eye contact!" She's hovering six or eight inches off the ground.

"That's fair... guess we wait then." At Rainbow's complaint, she grins ear to ear. "Maybe if I work for Brooke for awhile I can carry you in my arms, wouldn't that be something?" Giggling, she leaned in and kissed the Celebi's nose. "Besides, I don't want to wear these any longer then I have to."

"Ah, no, whatever would I do then?" Rainbow asks, laughing. "Two woman who can throw me around? How would I ever manage?" She devolves into wordless laughing fits. "Ah, I'm sorry. I don't know why I found that so funny," she says, after regaining her composure.

"Nothing to apologize for, I love hearing your laugh." Business all concluded, it would fall to another day of relaxation and pleasantries, until the sky turned blue the day after the following. When they were to meet their escort, and finally make way to Lilycove.

The rest of the night and the following day are just spent with Rainbow and Brooke, enjoying life in the time that there is left before relaxation is torn away once more. But, in those moments, there's no need for concern. No sense of worry. It's a happy time. End Episode 6
