Aww... As fast as the hug came, as fast it was gone. Shiva hadn't even gotten the chance to return it due to that, which made her feel just a bit gloomy - but before she ends up sulking because of that or Kirlia would notice this emotion, she brushed that off for everyone's sake.The appreciation of the gesture was surely stronger anyway.

At hearing Nathan's worry about how dangerous this whole thing actually was, yet another emotion came in: Guilt. And maybe a trace of shame. Hopping onto Swiftfire was more of an impulsive action since the fierly horse was just beside her and she desired to escape his somehow... She faced Nathan for a few more moments, the broke eye contact to stare at the overly interesting ground instead, all while putting the tips of her first fingers together in a search for correct words. "Well ehm, I'm sorry for that... Didn't know it would be THAT dangerous as I thought being overrun by a horde of running Pokemon would be the bigger threat. I started to get panicked and desired to get away, you see? Turned out pointless as the Pokemon caught me up rather quickly despite Flame Charge... But I certainly felt safer on the back of Swiftfire than running on my own." Her expression lighted and she carefully faced Nathan from the rim of her glasses again at hearing 'I'm sorry' and Nathan asking where she learned to ride. "Oh, that... Let's see, that must have been during a holiday in Undella Town some years ago? Some tourist guides offered hunts for rare items with provided Stoutlands or simply some free time with them, and as I had nothingelse to do... The basics of riding and staying seated on a matching Pokemon are the same in almost all cases, and keeping that in mind I don't think I'll have much issues flying on that Tropius I caught among the runners. If it lets me, that is..."

Speaking of new caughts - the words just came to her - , Shiva's gaze fell once again on that Skiddo, now cuddling up to the Ponyta. Still a very cute view to her! "Besides, that Skiddo there... I have no idea where it came from, but it seems to be rather fond of Swiftfire. Isn't that cute?~ Guess you should consider taking it with you?"
