Ryujo entered a place he had not been on physically in a while, Sinclair city. Since the previous problems of the Pillar Event, Ryujo had disappeared to focus upon his city, and its citizens. Hundreds of reimbursements, announcements to assure those who lived another event would not harm them, and that of course the various repairs. It had taken quiet a while, as Ryujo expected. Even if only a single minuscule hole had been created in the Sinclair, it would have frightened the people who lived and visited. This was horrid for businesses. After this people are nervous, even if they are not paranoid a small part of them is always double guessing, making people spend less money. This creates a chain of events that make a continuous circuit of drop in currency. The only group that benefited were the construction teams who repaired everything, and even then they too were nervous, reducing the speed at which they worked.
Luckily Ryujo had managed to find ways around it. Sinclair was by no means heavily damaged, infact the damage could have been much much worse, which meant less nervousness and fear. People were more than willing to stay when Ryujo took money out of his own bank account to pay for the various damages, including lost items. These allowed people to calm down and regain their feelings of safety much faster. Ryujo had even never let his pokemon leave the city, even when he was gone. He didn't have them patrol or act as sentries of course, that would have been a sign of him thinking the city was in danger. But the fact that the pokemon were there to help with anything was like a child's parents being in the next room over, if anything went wrong, they just had to call and they'd help. It also didn't hurt he had back up stocks of items left over form certain sales, allowing him to minimize the drop in sales to just being effected by the shopping rate rather than the lack of inventory. After everything had finally stabilized, Ryujo had started plans on yet again opening his gym, its third opening. Now it was merely a matter of waiting for the items to be moved out of the final floor, the stages to be moved back in and reactivated, and of course to get the actual programs for it up and running. So, after a quite a bit of advertising, Ryujo finally had some down time, and chose to spend that keeping an eye on his city. He wanted to know if everyone was calm and comfortable, so for now he was moving from person to person, using his hidden talents to read some of their thoughts and some slight amount of persuasion to calm them and convince them to enjoy the ride or stay. After all, attitude was infectious, and it was entirely possible a single relaxed person could make everyone else relaxed. Of course... there was the problem of negative attitudes, but Ryujo had ways of dealing with those. Hopefully none would appear however.
