After Time Skip.

As she searched the surrounding, she spotted both Nathan and Kirlia there at the beachside. Lost in their thoughts, it seemed. Meditation? How clever... Besides, she still hasn't yet gotten back to Ven on the offer to teach Helios some basic meditation, with the aim to develope an awareness of the alpha-waves of his brain. Will do so as soon as they reunite.

She felt an instant-urge to sneak up to Nathan and suprise him with a tacklehug...before she brushed that thought off rather quickly. It'd be rude and disrepectful to interrupt someone in meditation like this, not even speaking of the danger that the mind would not get along with it in the current calm state. So instead, Shiva called out Fennekin and - after fox licked over her hand as a greeting - ordered him to sneak up to Nathan instead of herself and carefully nudge him to awake from meditation. If that does not work, use Howl to get their attention.

Nathan's just a little too distracted with the meditation right now to notice his pokedex buzzing since he'd turned off its ringing for the purposes of focusing more on the meditation...when a fox walks up to him, though?

*Nudge*

Kirlia opens his eyes when the fox nudges Nathan.  He levels a narrow eyed stare at the fox, then sighs.

It takes Nathan a moment longer to react, but he noticed.  He was trying his best to distract himself from the atmosphere of the area, so it just took him a longer to wrap up his train of thought.  

He sees Fennekin looking up at him when he checks on what nudged him.  He looks over at Kirlia...and sighs as well.  He'd let down his guard again, and Kirlia hadn't warned him about anything if he'd sensed it in advance.  Darn it.  "Alright, time to go, I guess...let's get this over with..."

He, Kirlia, and Fennekin walk over to Shiva.  "Alright, let's get this started.  Explanation first, then battle.  Seems to be the most convenient way to do things."

Back at the Center, he makes sure they find a quiet back room nobody will disturb them in.  Once the door is locked and he's satisfied that nobody else is around, he asks, "So, what do you want to discuss first?  I have three things to talk about: The Breeder's License, my explanation, and since you want to get stronger, a couple general tips for battles.  We can discuss them in whatever order you wish."
