Aww, I'm sorry to hear that he moved away (and that his house flooded owo)
and oh...yeah, I sometimes feel that way too whenever I meet someone (irl and in the NL game) who I haven't seen in a long time, that it won't be too awkward. Yeah, hopefully. And yeah, I play some Pokemon games
ACNL and Pokemon Conquest are the only 3DS games that I have though lol.
