[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Seeing Ventus heavily sigh and shake his head with one hand on it didn't help either, but at least her dear oddball of sociologist seemed just as puzzled as she was. He simply showed it more openly. Hesitating a little because of the Misdreavus by his side, Shiva eventually caught Ven's attention by gently pulling on one of his sleeves, looking up to him mildly confused as he turns to her. "Ven... I know it's probably none of my business, but...you have any idea why he now ran away? It surely was his mother who called, I hope she's doing fine... Shall we just continue our way to the Shack? We can still meet him at the entrance, I guess."

Alolan Vulpix is still by Shiva's side, not super-obviously visible though but instead semi-hidding behind her legs, if Ventus would like the sensation of the fox now.

The Little Miss gave Shiva an openly suspicious look as she approached her master, reading her intentions/feeling written on their expression, before dropping it and giving them a nod of her head, before floating off to the side to give both of them some room. She may be a mischevious trickster with a propensity for pomp and scare, but that doesn't mean she can't be social and/or curtious; its just most of the time she doesn't have to bother with such things. That, and it was more trouble than its worth to give the woman a hard time for her rather rude reaction last night since the matter had been resolved, though if they think she was cowed by her stargazer they be in for a BIG scare the next time they pull a similar stunt....!

Due to this and his mystical friend tugging on his sweater Ventus removed his hand from his forehead and turned to regard her with a faintly surprised look at her question, as he expected you to listen in on the conversation like him, but in the end he shake it off and answer her with a slight note of put upon confusion.

"Indeed  you are correct about the caller her being his mother, and yes she's fine, or otherwise Nathan would have had a much more severe reaction to the phone call. From what I could gather, she has apparently surprised him with something and has sent a care package of some variety, but that is all I know for certain. As you saw he ran off without telling me much at all, though, so your hypothesis is as reasonable as mine for the cause of his sudden flight...... *Sighs* Yes, perhaps that would be the best course of action, as who knows when he'll return or what mood he'll be in by then....."

As he gave his most blessed girlfriend a nod of his head, he caught a glimpse of something.....white and furry hiding behind her legs, causing a different for of confusion to alight in his mental crawlspace.

"Shiva, something is obscuring itself behind you, and I'm not quite sure what it is. Is it perhaps a new Pokemon of yours I haven't meet, or did I accidentally drop my Reshirim plushie behind you somehow....?
