[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

The researcher was rather annoyed (Both visably and not) at this very topic being brought up AGAIN, especially since he was physically and mentally taxed on top of actively rebalancing his mind from mutlitple ordels , but he kept mum as they reintered their 'Big Picture' idea and Cheshiran customs once more. That general feeling of irritation was soon replaced with his own brand of horror and remorse when Nathan revealed just how much of a frightful panic he almost caused by 'paying his respects' to the Pokémon Contruct, which in turn only intesified that tiny smigen of guilt within him over action (Which they then proceeded to stamp out AGAIN, before Kirlia can pick up on it). Ventus was silent for a moment of time, going over the detail and pulling the last bit of his rampant mental/emotion state back into placing, before they nodded to him, calm acceptance with a hint of resignation in his expression.

"...I understand Nathan. Initially I only desired for Apsis to have a challenging battle with the hypnotist, but since I promised her earlier that we would hunt together, I felt obligated to let her eat it, but that only ended up causing more trouble than it was worth in the long run. I honestly don't care what happens to the wild Pokémon I battle or much about them all in general, as callous as that sound to you, so long as they pose no threat to me or the others that I care deeply about. Still, I hate being wasteful in any capacity or form, so I'll endevour NOT to resort to feeding unwanted but Rare victims to my Arbok/killing them unless the posses a substaintail risk to my safety and health." 

"In regards to my occasional lack cultural sensitivity, however, that is ultimately up to myself to endure the consequences of thereof. If my foreign beliefs steps on the toes of those with thin skin or a strong sense of tradition, then its up to me to handle the fallout of that situation, not you Nate. I always strive to be kind, caring, and compassionate towards others on a average daily basis, but sometimes I have to be brutal and unforgiving in order to accomplish a task, even my choice(s) offend others in some capacity, so I will accept and own up to all the negativity I inure and react as I see fit. I will try to be respectful to Cheshire belief regardless, but I will not sacrifice or radically change myself just to appease those that do not and/or will not understand my own culture."

Ven then let out a worn out *Sigh* , before rubbing the back of his head and looking morosely apologetic at the young trainer that came out to fetch him. "Sorry about causing you to fret over me and forcing you to make a treack into Fireweed Forest just to search and retrieve me. I should have texted you to confirm that I was fine or just headed back with Shiva initially like you said, and not have delayed our depature to Ginger Town. I'm actually quite eager to get their, as I received a text earlier (He read it sometime either before or after the Guarden Battle) that stated the Running is about to begin, and I greatly desire to participate in it myself, so let us make haste to the Pokémon Center and put Winesberry behind us for now! Oh, and I would have either have killed any Scimitar that tried to abuct me, or release all my Pokémon and kill myself before I let the capture me, so do not worry about that possibility. Onwards we go, my friend!"
