[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

'Who hasn't'... Hearing this caused Shiva to hang her head a little and finger another blade of grass nervously. Not because of anything that had to do with her, no, she personally didn't feel like she has ever made a Pokemon suffer. It only shows her once more that it may not be the most unreasonable sentiment to seperate Pokemon and human from each other.

She perks up and goes back to facing Nuzleaf as she indicates her longer leaf. Ah... Probably because of the darkness Shiva didn't realize that this Nuzleaf's leaf is longer until now. She nods in understanding - and starts to ponder. She's undisclosed whether it's a good or a bad idea to mention that she's having some of of these pink petals at her person... "I see. So you're some sort of the alpha female for the others... That's pretty cool. Leading is never an easy task, all the responsibility you're having. But seeing how the group or the clan functions is a pleasant reward on its own. Some people - and for sure Pokemon too - naturally make good leaders, others don't and suit better in a following role. To each their own..."

"Ah. I was....just about to ask what this pink petal actually means to you...... I've never seen it on a Nuzleaf before. But that's probably why they interest me.... They're having an emotional and personal value to me." ... "Please say, do these petals regrow, and are you willing to part with it? N-now, hold on. Don't decline right away. Of course it wouldn't be a one-sided parting. How about...a trade? I'm having something that looks and feels equal to the pink petal, but isn't a petal. Now?"

Silence. Shiva spoke it out - that was the hardest part. Now, she could only hope. Beraving the matriarch of her status symbol by force, Shiva doesn't feel well with this thought. It's either diplomacy, or she'd miss the chance for the 5th of six petals here.
