Ralts continues to STARE at Malphena, his arms crossed, still kinda unamused.  For someone so small and frail, he certainly doesn't act like it, that's for sure.  It's almost like he's older than he looks...kinda.

He listens...looks at Nathan...looks back at Malphena...STARES.

...

...

...then he turns away and heads back over to Nathan.  Mostly ignoring Malphena again.  He doesn't like that she's bothering him and Nathan for who knows what reason...he's going to be keeping a close eye on her to make sure there's no funny business...

"...yeah, I'm...fine.  It's just..."

...Nathan starts chuckling.

"...I completely forgot...so much has happened...it just...flew right over my head..."

"...I need to go pick up something at the Center real quick.  I'll be right back after I do.  Should only take a few minutes.  Ralts, Furret, let's get goin' to the Center."

Off to the Center Nathan goes to see what the surprise is!  He'll be right back after he's withdrawn the items in question.

As the abnormal Ralt's returned his attention to the birthday boy, intent on blocking her out, the Little Miss couldn't help but roll her eyes again and huff as she returned to her own master's side as their no-nonsense, fuddy duddy attitude still persisted despite her going out of her way NOT to antagonize him and 'kindly' catch him up on events.

Honestly, he would be ALL too easy to rile him and toy with if he kept acting so curt and serious around her, instead of living a little by going beyond his comfort zone and learn to enjoy a bit of mischief, but if that's the way he wants to be, oh well. She'll just keep being her dandy self around him until he finally learns to loosens up a bit. Or not. Either way, she'll be having SO much fun with the interesting scamp in the forseeable future, te he~

The researcher, on the other hand, was greatly relieved when Nathan started responding once more, though their cryptic comments certainly left them puzzled.

"Forgotten about something? Pray tell, what-" Ventus started to say, before he was cut off as they sprinted off to the Pokémon Center to retrieve something, the blitzkerg depature leaving him blinking for a several seconds until he heaved a great big *Sigh.....* and place a hand on his head as he shook it.

"At least Nathan is fine, even if he's in too much of rush to explain things properly. By the Tao Trio, that boy is handful and a half, no matter the circumstance....."

His sister couldn't help but let out a giggle of agreement as she nudge his sides for attention, earning a chuckle from him as he swept his hand through her aetherial locks of hair. With Malphena around, he wouldn't have to worry about growing too exaserbated with her sense of jollity and humor!
