[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

'Reiner' went silent as 'he' listened and felt the impact of your explaination as to why you always tried to be somewhat comical, before quietly letting out a sigh and saying: "So long as you keep it under control when it matters most and spare me the worst of it, you can be as humerous as you like Arial. *Sigh* I recommend you practice a bit more on when and where you starting joking around, though. Timing is an essential part of comedy, and telling a joke at the wrong time can kill it more thoroughly than a Dragon rampaging through the crowd. Well, maybe not that severe, but you get the point."

Your next question caused them to sharply look in your direction and stare at you for a moment, as they contemplated WHY they felt it necessary to save the proverbial ball and chain of the group. After a minute of this, they just calmly and plainly tell you the answer. "Because we protect our own, Arial. No matter how irritable or dickish you act, you are still a part of the team, and teammates help one another out when they can and if its possible. You've helped me several times in the past when I was a pinch, and you ended up taking care of the Vampire without us having to have a prolonged, dangerous fight with her next to a hive of giant angry hornets, so I'd say you are earning your keep. Megearly and with great annoyance, but you are doing you part as a bodyguard and helper. *Heavy Sigh* All I just want is you to take your job more seriously and not piss off or weird out everybody we end up meeting with, alright? Is that too much to ask for?"

Arial took several seconds listening to his words. Arial is...part of the team? Sure its true he help with his part but, he did not expect that to hear that in Reiner mouth. Even with all the time he live under the Rockets he never felt being "part" of any group or felt anything about the others grunts inside there. No one ever tell he was something like part of some group, nor Arial felt like the need to say that. 

"Because we protect our own Arial."

That words sounds so much strange in Arial ears. Its against the things he have forced to accept back in Tandor: That you cant believe and no one, and you must fight for survive and sustent, and each one its each one by itself. The only type of company he could feel "in home" was beside their pokemon partneers: Gaspar, Melchior and Baltazar back in that time. He feel bad about the way he act before. "Well, err, thats something I never expect hear. To be honest I was expecting you to be still piss off and fired me after this ends, but you saying I...part of the team, and protect our own and teamates help each other...that was the last thing I expect to hear. And you thank me for save you several times...even more less. Perhaps I a madman and hater of humanity in general...but its quite cool feel part of something." Then Arial continues say. "Its not much Reiner. I dont like promises, but I promise to take this job a little more serious and try to not piss off everyone. And Reiner..." Then Arial looks to other direction. "Thank you, frie...mate. It means...a lot to me. Honestlely." 

"You'll find a friend that will help you as you try to help them, and together you'll make it through whatever difficulties that lay before you."

For some reason that little part of the vision pops out in Arial mind. He try to forget those words and put his mind in the right direction. Talk with Riza and them tell Reiner about the information he have. "There is other thing I would like to ask, but I will leave that for later. We are starve and its better to take care of the stomach before anything."
