"Well, it may be hard to catch them up in the mountains, because those mountains are essentially impassable. But yes, they broadcast the Running most years. I'm sure the Center will have it."

"Oh... Didn't know that the mountains are ouright impassable. That means the chance to catch one of the rare species is indeed solely during their RUNNING... Nevermind, it feels more safe for me to stay inside the Center preferably, there'll be hopefully enough chances to catch a rare Pokemon during my further journey through the region."

"Well, eh... Guess I'll get going then, before I accidently distract you from work even more. However, it's been splendid to see you again as foreshadowed, despite the town is way more crowded that I actually thought or expected." She hestiated a little before continueing, but if she doesn't speak it out, they might loose track of one another, which Shiva was...well, she didn't want that, now that she found someone to silently look up to. Xiani was tough, independant, nevertheless pretty in...whatever that was that she dressed herself there, she seemingly knew how to look good with little more effort than draping fabric over herself and a real Herbalist. And she called her 'honey' there on the flower field as handing the price money for her victory against Woobat and Persian. Wasn't there something about a Trainer doesn't just leaved their hometown to gather Pokemon and battle, but also to meet all variety of people and make new friends...? Would it be weird to ask whether they'd see one another again, whether Xiani would be up to stay in contact  and for example exchange numbers after The Running/before she returns to Corsage Port...? Technically and biologically, she's at least ten years older than Shiva was, but since she got along with a seven years older Sociologist wonderfully, what spoke against it? Nothing, if you'd ask Shiva...

Anyway. "Uh... Before I leave, wanted to wish you good luck during the Running in the way that there'll hopefully be not too many injuries you'll have to deal with... You think we see one another again?" The insecurity in the last sentance was real. But so was the wish to stay in contact.

"Oh, and, last question, did you saw Zamboni here already? I believe I got a glimpse on his Delibird before I ran into you, do you happen to know whether he accepts challenges during the Running ata all? Maybe it's a way better idea to wait with challenging him until after The Runnin'... "


(Back to the cozyness of bed I now go... Just wanted to shortly chip in to wrap this up. Hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did~)
