[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

Letting out a relieved *Siiiigh* as Nathan capitulated to both his and his most blessed friend's entreaties, Ventus gave them a much friendlier smile while patting their shoulder. "Nathan, I know you greatly desire to test your metal against Dagney's own fortified Pokémon, but taking care of your general wellbeing first should be your top priority, and I thank you for doing so. After all, if you end up stressing yourself to the point of collapse instead of recuperating, all that expended effort will amount to naught but failure and frightening your own trust companion. I do not want a reoccurence of you of Fainting from intense stress and fatigue, nor anyone else would for that matter. 'Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it,' and as an avid historian yourself you would do well to learn this," he told them, gently praising them for their decision while also reinforcing the idea to know the times for maximum effort, and when to take it easy. As a Pokémon Researcher himself, he's no stranger to his colleagues or even himself falling ill due to working themselves to the bone without much down time, so he's genuinely speaking from experience here! That, and bringing up their disasterous double battle should go a long ways towards impressing on him NOT to overdo it......he hopes.

"If you would allow, I'm more than willing to take care of both of them for the day. While I'll be focusing on volunteer works at the Shelter mainly, I'll make sure they'll get plenty of jolly fun in the rain, and perhaps help train them if I have any free time left for it!"

Order: Praise/Reinforce the idea of Nathan resting to get better, before making an offer to take care both Forthright and Starmie. If he accepts, Ventus will go over to his PC and swap out Abaddon and Michael to have the party space for this , though he'll make sure to teach his kick boxing Shroom Stone Edge before doing so! If not, he'll still go over to the PC to swap out Michael for his Egg at least, making sure to lovingly check on it (The Egg) in the process! Then he'll be ready to proceed to the Shelter with Shiva, discussing his proposal to have a 2V1 Battle of Kingdra vs. Cottenee and Marill after work! That about wraps up his day in one fell swoop, really!
