Spoiler

Before Shiva made her way back to the Pokémon Center and approached her/his room, Ventus was sedately sitting at the room's table, scribbling......poems? in his notebook, while Hanael lay by his feet and acted as a space heater , and Abaddon explore their new room to his heart's content. He decided to spend the rest of the day laying low after that shaky battle with the fair lady he fought (and whose number he'd gained....) , and what better way that hanging out with his somewhat overlooked family members and practicing some writing while waiting on Shiva to return for the evening/night? This is why he left their door's room unlocked instead of re-locking it once he stepped in, after all!

Eventually, when his dearest friend did make her way to his room, the empath immediately picked up on this, as well as the exhaustion and the sense of.....triumph . Ventus put away his notebook and turned to face the door, and when she walked right in half distracted/half tired, he gave them the sweetest, most soothing smiles he was capable of making on such short notice! "Salutation, dear! It heartens me to see that your day has been sastifactory up until now, but it also appears it has worn on you too, so far as I can detect. If you don't mind, would you mind sharing what has caused this weary yet....oddly invirgorated feeling, dear? As for my early return to our room, I desired an early respite day after a through but enjoyable day comforting that Pyroar at the shelter, so I would be fully ready to resume my appointed duties tomorrow! Oh, and of course I'll awaken you when I arise early in the morn and share breakfast with you, Shiva! Can't miss the important meal of the day nor our jobs at the Shelter, after all!"

Such a sweet smile was a just as sweet and appreciated welcome and she actually faintly returned it while giving Abbadon a friendly pet on the forehead - if he's exploring the room, someone new coming into the room is probably something he won't miss/is curious about -, his agreement to wake her in the morning just in case was thankfully accepted as well. But how did he knew that she was at the do- Ah, right. She remembers how she could even feel through the door that she was doing horrible and empty that one day in Corsage Port. Maybe one day, Shiva herself would be capable of such a thing as well, but for now she somewhat admired such a skill of instantly knowing how she's doing. The drawback would certainly be a near impossibility to hide anything.

As a response to his saluations at the beginning, Shiva playfully salutates to him now from her sitting position on the edge of bed before she allows herself to drop back into it. The cozyness was wonderful right now, she even found her Snivy-Plush there under the pillow and immediately hugs it. Means, she cannot face Ventus anymore, she's actually pondering whether she should tell... Ah, she simply does. After all, she won, wheee!~ "My my, you're certainly fast to pick things up... Uhm.. Well, thing is, what exhausted me was a battle against Nathan I just had. He desired for some practice for Lil' Cup, and I EVENTUALLY agreed... Maybe you've picked this is up there at Dagny's Gym. Before you ask, yes, I very well remember what happened the last time you and me battled Nathan, and I don't want to repeat THAT, please. Using rukes from Little Cup is somewhat to my favour, as my somewhat strongest Pokemon are small unevolved ones. Just take a look at Pancham!~ He did well in battle. Same did my Litwick, I actually desired to gift her a bit of my life force today, but...maybe it's better to do that when he's fully healed up Nurse Joy. I...even managed to defeat Orthros! That Tandorian Pokemon, Comite, did it. It desired to stay overnights with me as well instead of spending the night in a Healing Machine. And... Ven, guess what..." *dramatic pause where Shiva arises from bed to face him* "...I even won thanks to Comite. 'gainst Nathan, that's... Well, whoahw, that's actually cool." She slumps back into bed, a little casual rest before that dinner from Heart was doing good. "It was tirering, I don't enjoy many emotions at one time and I don't have to remind you on anything about that...dog of his, but I've somewhat caught myself again. He took it rather well as well, kinda fair actually."

"Besides, Ven, dear... Will YOU actually participate in Little Cup? Walking through the city today, I guess I've seen people hanging up very first posters of how it'll start ina  few days. Matches are during evening, so it does go well with our work at Shelter."
