[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

Lilith will eat any sweet food as long as she's not expected to do anything in return!

"Hehehehe... You've got quite a sweet tooth, don't you?" 'What a weird trait for a Grass Type to have what looks like feathers', Shiva thought as she just watched this new Pokemon dig in to her offer - not even a shy creature it seems!

She still doesn't know who of the party this Pokemon belongs to however and looks out were her other travel companions are to find out.

Sastified with that Lilith and Shiva were getting along relatively well and mentally documented the species apparent love of sweets ('In retrospect, that was fairly obvious given their reaction to the Honey, but more data backing up that assessment is always desired'), Ventus stepped forward and announce his familial bond with his rarity to the lass with a warm smile on his face. "I see you and her have become fast friend, my dear. Shiva, this is Lilith, the newest member of my family, and she's apparently an extremely rare species of Pokémon that is native to Baykai Forest in Tandor, or at least that is what Heart told me. I managed to convince her to join me peacefully via appealing to her sweet tooth with Honey, so I'm quite glad of that preference of hers, all things considered!"

Kirlia's panting.  Not from pain, since he's not feeling any, but from the sheer speed of his actions over the last 18 seconds.  He gives Abaddon (not Ventus) an appreciative look for blocking most of the poison and all of those nasty, nasty statuses.

Whew...serves those walking stomachs right...

Nathan's finally got a handle on Swiftfire again.  Masq has taken roost in a nearby tree, still following his original orders to keep watch.

Nathan's also looking at that Mutios effigy again, offering a silent thanks to the Yin pokemon.  He's both relieved and scared right now...it's a delicate balance on a knife's edge...

Abaddon returns the look of gratitude with a sharp salute and a loud, proud warble, happy that his Alluring moves and staltwart defense successfully defanged his opponents and protect his fellow Psychic type. His father promise that he'd become a powerful Wobbuffet is becoming a reality much sooner than they would think, but that just means their all the love and care he gave them was paying off for the both of them! The blue demon then waddled over to his master's side, who let out a sigh of relief at with the swift ease both his child and Kirlia subdued the pair of Poisonous Punching Bags, and mutter a quiet prayer of thanks to his own patron diety Reshirim: "My thanks Reshirim for the fast resolution of this battle, and protecting all of us from the worst that could have happened. May you Flames of Truth light our path in the future..."

Ventus then leaned down and gave Abaddon a loving hug as his own thanks for their efforts, simply saying to them: "Thank you, my child. You have grown so strong in so little time, and I couldn't be more proud of you than I am now. How about I make you something delicious later when we have exited this blasted swamp, for all you have accomplished today and in the past?" After that touching moment he returned them to their Pokeball, and his relieved expression started to fade away as he glanced at how Nathan/Kirlia's and their emotions to see how they were doing, and almost letting out a sigh of frustration at the disdain + fear he felt from either of them. 'Abaddon and I have bailed them out of an almost literally Toxic situation with that Swallot and Gulpin, and they still doubt my intentions? I know trust and belief are rather in short supply for the two, but by Reshirim just because I think ill of Nathan does not me I wish them so!' he thought to himself, clearly displeased with their constant skittishness, until a thought struck him. 'Hmm.....perhaps that would work....'

Thinking it over for a few more moments, the empath then nodded his head, before plodding through the swamp towards Kirlia, standing right in right in front of them silently for a few seconds....before he flicked his wrist and palm an Oran Berry, crouched down to the dancer's level, and handed it to them. "I noticed you got injured by that Swallot's Body Slam, so take this to fully recover your health. .....I also want to thank you for supporting my son as he fought alongside you, Kirlia. Without your assistance, he would have fair much worse against those Poison types, so again, you have my sincere gratitude," the researcher said to him, a wane smile accompanying it with woleheartedly honesty. Ventus then stood up and walked over to Nathan, and simply asked them: "Are you alright, Nathan?"
