[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

"A Pawnard and Ghastly? Not only are these difficult Pokémon to obtain, they are well known for them are their evolution being notoriously disobedient if their master has not gained their total loyalty and respect. You must be a quite the talent mercenary if you can handle these two troublemakers," Ventus calmly said, looking fascinated at the Pokémon in Valder's possession. Steel types were amoung his favorites, with Dragon types and Friendship Pokémon being right behind them.

'Difficult Pokémon to handle and care for, but the rewards are so often worth the danger. Still, best beware of their power,' the researcher calmly thought to himself, before a kind smile re-appeared on his face. "Well, I say that just about does it for this interview! Me and you will further elaborate on the terms of your employment at a later date, but let us be done with this stuffy environment now! There is a festival to be had, and I hate to have all of us waste it in here!" Ventus exclaimed, uncrossing his arms and clapping his hand together. The Pokeballs in his hands were gone by the time he clapped, already tucked away wherever the sociologist stored them.

Outstretching both arms, he lead his friends out of the back room and straight into the lobby, keeping both the mercenary and Nathan at respectful distance from one another. 'I wouldn't want any unnecessary fight break out between them, even though the possibility is rather unlikely at this point. Better safe than sorry, though,' Ventus thought to himself, maneuvering himself between the trainers and their Pokémon. Soon, the gathering returned to the lobby, and he was quite happy to see that Shiva had returned from her business engagement.

"Shiva! I trust you visit to the daycare went as well as our meeting with Valder here?" the research happily said to the lass, casually introducing his mercenary with nary ceremony or aplomb. As far Ventus was concerned, the man could be trusted to work well with the group for the time being, and decided to broadcast his approval by acting as if they are already fast friends. Feeling happy excitement brewing within Shiva, Ventus curiously tilted his head at the young woman. "Hmm? Something has gotten you excited? Would you mind telling us what has put you in such a positive mood, beside your daycare trip of course!" Turning his head back at Valdar, he told him "Oh, and would you happen to have any snacks for my friend here? He says he's hungry, and I don't have anything on me to feed him right now."
