[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Okay, all that hastle due to her elusive Poochyena was pretty uncomfortable for Shiva, even if these people are gone ow and will likely reconsider twice approaching her if the Pokemon they are interested in is given premittion to bite anyone who dares to come too close. Now though, she could only hope that the rumor of someone some traveler has a very special and unique Poochyena calling her own... Still need to talk with Professor Mallorn before considering showing her dog to the party. Besides, it was getting dark and even if the city never sleeps and there was so much to do and so many places to visit here, Shiva was still exhausted from what has happened along the way to reach this capital and after some considering things and reconsidering things:

Get some rest, my dear.
But there's the Department Store! That Fountain I need to vsit with Azurill! And...
Gest some rest, the black-spotted egg wil hatch soon.
Ah, right - I need to be prepared.
Where do you take all that eager from so suddenly?
....Don't know?

Anyway, after giving a few last pets to Tropius' forehead and strokes over Poochyena's grey fur - taking care to not touch the butterfree-wings - she withdrew them both and just motioned to leave the place - as she noticed what some of the people were eager to get their hands on: Some of the Shield Dust fallen from Poochyena's wings was sprakling in the light that illuminated the park. It wasn't that much, but it was visible on the ground and Shiva cannot just leave it there. Okay then... Drawing the empty tube that formerly contained the Vitamin D pills she was taking every morning (still need to restock on these somewhere in town), she collected all the Shield Dust in it, taking care to not leave any visible traces of it behind.

Once that has been done, back to the Pokemon Center or GPC as the citizans melodically call it, where she was rather suprised to see Ventus in person sitting in the Lobby! She was even more suprised that he didn't seem to be in a bad or down mood at all, but rather...relieved. Alright with himself. How did he do that, given he was Unfettered and perhaps in a fight over morals not too long ago?! Eh... Anyway, Shiva couldn't deny that and instantly felt better herself. (Subliminally and possibly traceable for his empathy, she was still just a little worried for his well-being). However, if Ventus got his peace over the issues, that doesn't mean Nathan got so as well, and rather quickly worried for HIM. Maybe it was a better call to leave Ven alone in this case and talk with Nathan over hat has happened, as well as see whether and how he copes...

Not today though. For now, all she gave Ventus was a carefully delighted smile as a greeting, a coy wave and showing him in gestures that she will get dinner in this Center's Cafe restaurant and afterwards head up to their room.
