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

Reiner raises an eyebrow, but he doesn't tell Weavile off for it since the feline was being conservative and discrete instead of charging in guns blazing with obvious intentions.  In fact, he gets a nod for a job well done since there is a need for a little more money right now.  Now then, let's not mention this again.  That necklace is getting pocketed for sure.

Old habits sure are hard to break, aren't they?

------------------------------------------------------

Pretty simple stuff for Reiner, actually.  Purpose of this is to feed those Risuko berries to Metagross (Four of them) and GTH Beedrill (Two of them).  Let's call it an...appetizer, shall we say.  That should fix the Loyalty issues with those two lickety split.

He also takes the time to present Poe with that Reaper Cloth he 'found' earlier.  Figured the little guy would at least like to hold it, regardless of whether it does much for him mechanically.  He can even probably wear it like a scarf.

Weavile's hangin' at the back of the room, as usual.  He's found his own snacks already (Reiner knew he would).  Nom.

Reiner's chattin' with Ridia about Emily's drawings.  He shows her the one she did of him and Weavile, and also talks about how the mighty Yang found her work 'passable'.  Maybe that'll help her warm up to the idea a little more.

Weavile is pleasantly surprised that you didn't ream him for getting sticky fingers in the suite, before he gives you his characteristic smirk and returns your nod with one of his own. Before you put away the Dawn Stone Pendant, though, you notice that Ridia was clutching your shoulder with more force (enough that it was starting to hurt a little), and when you turned to figure out why she was doing that you saw her stare it with an captivated, enraptured look of her face. Poe, however, was completely uninterested in it, only shooting his sister a weird look for her fascination with the Evolution Stone before continuing to snuggle in your arms.

Interesting....

Summoning Metagross was a easy affair, with them slowly blinking/booting up as they scanned their surrounding, before their attention inevitably was focused on you shortly thereafter. They stared at you for awhile, seemingly perplexed at the situation/place it found itself in now, until it noticed you were holding its Pokeball and offering it some berries to munch on. Subsequently after that you felt yourself being 'pinged' by the living supercomputer, before it you heard its 'voice' loud and clear!:

He ....And that last line repeated itself a couple of times in your head before they severed the connection, giving you an expectant look and opening their mouth to devour the Risuko Berries. You could only dumbly/dazingly comply as you deposited 4 of them in their, which it then calmly devoured. The effects of the berries kicked in shortly thereafter, manifesting in the ultra logical Pokémon as bumping their New Owner up the Chain of Command/List of Important Beings That Should Be Listened Too, bumping them past their old owner and putting you on top of the list, equal to that of itself! Metagross's Loyalty has been raised by 4; 4 Risuko Berries used!

The GTH Beedrill, unlike the living supercomputer that had coldly and impersonally invaded your mind, just stared at you and the offer Berries with only slight hesitation, before they too accepted and ate them. Suddenly the hornet found all their reservations about you melt away and her connection strengthen with you, causing her to let out a *Bzzzzzzz!* of delight and fly over to briefly hug you in acceptance/friendliness! Talk about a social insect right there! GTH Beedrill's Loyalty Raised by 2; 2 Risuko Berries used!

Unlike with the Dawn Stone, the Little Bro took keen interest in the fragment of the grim reaper's cloak, sniffling and pawing at it for a bit before letting out an excited/accepting "Eevee!" and gladly equip it on him like a scarf. Not only did he look more cool/cute wearing the Reaper's Cloth, but he felt himself absorbing the Item's power and becoming strengthened by it! He's definitely happy you gave it to him now! While wearing the Reaper Cloth, Poe has a - 1 Damage Reduction against all types of Attacks except Dark, Fighting, Fire, Fairy, and Dragon, and his Hidden Power's effect now proc if it has 3 Success as well! He also immune to Rads as he wears it as well! Fantastic!

When Arial arrived later to head your summons, you immediately was alerted to his presence by all your Pokémon.

Your response...

EDIT: Oh, and since you never introduce Ridia to Yang (unless I forgot!), she has no idea or reason to respect that name, but she is indeed impressed by the picture you shown her and the clear talent that little girl put in it. As a result, she's more neutral about the idea of letting Emily draw her/her brother, but she's by no means eager/excited!
