[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Nathan doesn't say a word.  If Aspis wasn't going to even acknowledge that Nathan's not seeking conflict, then she wasn't going to get any treats in the future.  Stupid snake...whatever happened to Raphael, huh?  As far as Nathan can tell, Ventus likes that snake more than the pokemon he received from the acting Champion of Sinnoh...

Truth be told, he was really scared that Ventus wasn't going to stop Aspis from doing...something.  

For some reason, Nathan just can't shake this feeling that something is just...wrong.

And that scares him more than anything ever has before.

Gotta stay strong...gotta keep going...gotta...gotta...stand tall.  Everyone needed him right now...especially Kirlia and his mom...

How long could he hold this together for, though?  Between the current problem for Creshire, his problems, and now Kirlia's...it's all just...

He doesn't want to finish that thought, so it's back to camp to get some much needed rest...

Well, at least the Toxicroak had been friendly...and now Nathan has what appears to be a crude depiction of Mutios...not something he expected to get in the middle of a swamp, that's for sure...Nathan lays down in his hammock to carefully look at it for a little while...

...and offer a silent prayer to the powers that be, wishing with all his heart for things to turn out okay in the end...

If anyone cares to interact with Nathan, he's not goin' to sleep quite yet.  Just relaxing in his hammock, looking at that clay and mulling things over...
