"Oh, Nathan gave you some Poke to take the Breeder's License Examination? He never told me himself, I believe, but it gladdens my heart to hear him help you with that much sought after goal of yours! Perhaps you can return the favor someday by getting something nice for him in return for his generosity, like the Upgrade I bartered for his Porygon, but for now I believe that Nate has some apologizing to do before he starts receiving gifts anytime soon...." Ventus replied, a both a little surprised and overjoyed by that gesture of kindness. Even before he was let in on the Truth (To some degree), he was still willing be a supportive, caring friend to Shiva. Maybe he needs a reminder on how kind actions such as this has great power...
At Shiva comment over hair, he gave her a bemused smile, mischief twinkling in his eyes as he thought up the PERFECT response. "Hmm...well, since your hair was a mess, I thought I'd give you a hand in getting it back into place, but I'm afraid my touch is no where near as gentle as yours. Or at least, that is what I am led to believe, judging by the way you were cuddling my side like a fluffy pillow this morning. It's unfortunate that you couldn't get your hair straightened due to my insistence, but unless you wanted to see me sketch for a half hour and strip for a shower, I spared you such dull sights, my friend," the empath non-chalently said, a perfectly composed as he teased her right back. He's not one to start playful behavior, but he'll certainly indulge it if that is the game she wants to keep playing...
The researcher was rather pleased that she agreed his plan of action, and nodded at the idea of including Valder in on his activities. They were his mercenary, after all, and more importantly a valued friend, so having them around was always a positive thing in his eyes. Especially if they get into a sticky situation, and have need of Ghastly and Theo to help sort things out! "I'll offer if he wants to accompany us to the Medicine Man's house like last time, and if he refuses I'll leave him to his own devices for the time being. He may be my hired hand, but I'm not a slave driver nor have a dictatorial relationship with him. I want him to be happy under my employment, so that he's more than willing to return the favor for me. That, and he's my friend; I want what is best for him, in the end."
Unfortunately for him, though, Shiva was quick to pick up on his slip, but at the very least she didn't pounce upon the opportunity to tease him silly (Though given his earlier comment, he's quite surprised she didn't). Her remark about it being her mother's nickname for her caused his good mood to diminish ever so slightly, but it was not perceptible on the outside of his cheerful smile. "Then your mother has great sense for naming, on top of being wonderfully supportive of your dreams as well. My own mother often playfully called me 'Her Little Rader', for my uncanny ability to pinpoint who was sad, disappoint, glum, or just feeling negative, and help comfort them in my own little special way. Wish I could have done something about her own grief later on, but I was not infalliable in my abilities. Not now, not then."

Like the wind, I come and go as I please... but I am always there to provide a comforting breeze.
