I will soon return to Sylvia and Mr Samsara!” Oz stands up and goes to a place outside of Bernard's presence. She releases Fortuna and then tells her. “Fortuna, can you give me a few feathers? Just to give them to Bernard? I know you have your reservations with him, but so far, he proved to be a good person. But I will not force you if you don't want to.”

(06-24-2024, 02:40 PM)PhantomUnderYourDesk Wrote: Sylvia's apology is gladly accepted. Bernhard avoid's Oz's gaze aka refuses to directly look at her after...that, however. Upon the conversation switching topic, he perks up, musters Myra who is having her fun with the customers. "Approach my precious Myra? Well... Do tell me your reasons for wising to do so, and I shall decide on whether or not give permission, dear Sylvia." He looks at her expectantly, somewhat on edge.

(assuming here Akamu was able to retrieve his now healed team in the short downtime after the tour)

''If it comes up while traveling sure but it's not my priority. However since I want to visit the Mangroves I can imagine needing to use this thing quite a lot, the whole spilling blood of my enemies  thing might not be too farfetchd. Anyhow I'll be preparing for a while to try and go out there and find my path.''

Setting his backpack down in a corner, leaving Lani to roam around as she pleased he retrieved the old blade, looking at the writing again.

''And that includes my team, we still need work to be ready for what lies ahead. Especially my newest recruit that's not a total anomaly, she's a bit difficult.''

(after confirming that the room is indeed safe from listeners)

''I'm also not keen on keeping this Paradox, from what I've seen so far it seems like way more risk and trouble then it's worth, coupled with just increasing existing major weaknesses on my team. If you want to take it in for research be my guest, I'll be looking to shore up my team with traits I need instead.''

Twisting the Ultra ball in his hand

''At least with Ultra Beasts I'd know what I'm talking about, this is a whole new situation.''

(...)


"The man behind you right now is an Alolan named Akamu.  He came across a rather interestin' blade recently and is interested in learnin' how to use it.  Ceruledge is likely gonna be workin' the most with him while he learns the basics of swingin' that weapon properly."

Next is Veluza!

"This one's only an honorary Sword really, but he's just as sharp as the rest of them.  Always eager to fight, this Veluza.  Doesn't let bein' a fish out of water stop him from slicin' and dicin' everythin'.  His techniques are more than capable of leaving devastating wounds on whatever he hits.  He may only be an honorary Sword, but he's one of my deadliest trump cards.  If we end up using your Soak on that Wandering Hurricane, it'll be vulnerable to a nasty surprise from Veluza."

Next...

"...here's where I would introduce ya to my second proper Sword, but unfortunately, he's back home undergoin' some intense trainin' until the end of my first week here.  Some like to call him my Sword of Justice, though I think the moniker isn't entirely in good taste, all things considered.  Still, if ya manage to survive the battle with that Wandering Hurricane, you'll have the opportunity to meet my Pseudo Slayer, Gallade.  His most impressive feat?  OHKOing a healthy Garchomp.  He's a master of his Sacred Sword technique.  There's always more to learn, but I don't think there's much more he can learn about using that blade without findin' more advanced masters of the blade than himself."

And finally...

"...and my third Sword is one that should knock your socks off if you were wearin' any.  My Verdant Sword, the one responsible for our ability to communicate smoothly."

Seddi pauses for dramatic effect and relays some brief instructions to Leaves.

[Kindly hold back that terrain of yours a bit, Leaves.  Don't want to mess up the room or the building.  If you can control it juuuuust enough so Kusanagi can feel its power though, that should help get the point across.]


As Seddi lets Leaves out, he'll continue describing her for the blind otter's sake, ideally with a small part of the Verdant Terrain's power touching Kusanagi's honed non-sight senses.

"Similar in many ways to the robotic pokemon known to roam this landscape, Iron Leaves is a pokemon made in the image of Virizion.  The existence of this Legendary Grass/Psychic Paradox is a closely guarded secret as of right now.  One that you are now privy to, Kusanagi.  Leaves is here on a mission, and I'm helpin' her with it.  And also helpin' her regain some of the strength that she lost in coming here.  She is powerful, but not nearly as powerful as she should be.  If I need to use her against that Wandering Hurricane, your Soak will be the edge that tempers her Leaf Blades.  It might not come to that between the others that will be joining us; your own blades; and the Goodra I have with me right now.  But if it does, I'd like to have that option available."

One can only hope that Kusanagi is at the very least intrigued by the varied cast, with skills and accomplishments just as colorful.

I could not help but to notice that you have, well, a range of Eeveelutions here. Quite the rare and elusive Pokemon these are... Where did you got the Eevee from? With the wilds of Sutalör being dangerous, I image a little creature like an Eevee does not...last long out there, unfortunately."

If questioned why he wants to know that: "I am merely...trying to find an exemplar for myself - or make myself one with my raffle's win. A versatile Pokemon like it is would make a fine companion to a Magus like me..."

(06-24-2024, 03:25 PM)PhantomUnderYourDesk Wrote: Bernhard gives Sylvia's answer quite thought, ponders over it as he rests his gaze on the extraordinaire Espeon. "...I see. Well, permission is given to you." How Sylvia called Myra 'magnificient' causes him to sport a mild smile on his otherwise stoic expression.

(06-23-2024, 09:42 AM)PhantomUnderYourDesk Wrote: Zephy is not with us for now, so we cannot utilize her Hidden Power here to bring the plushie temporarly to life to have it play with young Spritzee. But maybe the smol perfumer does appreciate a cuddle companion nevertheless while Bernhard does enjoy the overly-sweet drink and just watches? (Read: Leaving the plushie out on the table, while Spritzee is summoned to play and cuddle with it! He may not be 'freshly hatched', but would still count as 'young' perhaps?)

(06-23-2024, 08:15 AM)Iron Wrote: Vernon will just find some time to stop by the cafe and leave a note with management or on a bulletin board saying he's seeking a Cufant. Other than that, he's not interested in availing himself of their other services.

(06-24-2024, 05:33 PM)Pokekitty2 Wrote: Sylvia will approach Myra carefully, slowly "touching" her psychic-space, so as not to startle her.
>>Good afternoon, Myra. I'm Sylvia. I just wanted to say hello - you're quite beautiful.
If Myra is open to it, Sylvia will also offer a game she used to play with her partner Vulpix - each takes turns projecting a psychic image with a tidbit about themselves hidden in it, and the other must explore or inspect the projection and find it.

(06-24-2024, 06:55 AM)Pokekitty2 Wrote: Cool! We'll take the book with us for Foxy Delights!

Sylvia will certainly take Tiffany up on that offer. Helping out a fellow Vee? Yes please!
On that note:
Sylvia enters the room with a friendly tail wave and a preemptive, "Good evening."
