[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

When Terra leaned in closer to her in suprise and calm fascination over the - to her - not that extraordinary statement that she was able to turn these tiny blue gemstones into something pretty, Shiva at first returned his stare with one that displayed amazement on her own before she averted her gaze slowly and meekly to observe the path in front of them instead, as if she feared having said anything wrong.

Though upon hearing that she didn't and the mountainous man only seemed to be caught off-guard by the various skills she seemed to possess, Shiva completely failed to hold back an embarrased smile - though she kept mustering the ground as they walked as she could definitely feel a faint blush returning to her expression as he was...'listing' the various titles he felt matching for the fae woman accompanying him on a trip to only gather some Berries. The opening that Ventus himself has told his successor that Shiva was something special only served to increase the flustered feelings within her, as she could only return this sentiment to the oddball of a Pokemon Sociologist. "You...You don't have to call me a 'Wise Woman' though! That's adorable... B-but not necessary. *waving handgestures of 'It's no big deal, and now Shiva finally faces him - the smile still very present in her features* "Just my name is enough. H-heart is also the Collector of rare Pokemon, not me..." She seems to calm down before she spoke the following sentence, her gaze becoming a dreamy tone as she looked up to the sky. "I mostly just try to befriend Pokemon that I meet and happen to like. The biggest part of mine have chosen to join me on their own after a bit of sweet-talk and getting to know it... It's quite a fine feeling to know that you haven't dragged it from its home against its will. That... that cute dragonfairy is one of them!~"

"But... to each their own I guess", she eventually concludes, "It's not like I DON'T battle selected Pokemon in the wild if I feel like they are not receptive to my words and offers."

Silence reigned after that for a little, in which Cottonee only chirped a little to express that she wouldn't want to be anywherelse but by the side of her sweet Master and she growing a little shy again upon noticed that she got a little carried away. 

Things were neatly brought on-topic again as Terra even handed her the formerly mentioned gemstones, which she answered with a stare of wonder initiately. "Huh... Uhm, thank you! I-I will certainly make good things out of 'em! Whoahw..." Guess she has simply not expected to be GIVEN the gemstones when she only asked to investigate them once from close, but after his next response she tilted her head at Terra with a faintly confused gaze up to him. "If... if your parents are merchants though and have thaught you everything about it, are you...sure that you don't want anything in return for these...? A favour or so... Or you want to have the crafts once they're done?"



Now to Genie!

The natural fae enthusuast could only laugh joyfully when that special Flygon of Terra expressed an INCREDIBLE amount of eager to her greeting and practically snatched her hand when offering it - after the initiate faint startle of that has faded, that is. Shiva kept her delighted tone of voice and mischievous-playful attitude towards the Desert Princess though as she firmly held her claw in her hand, even when she mildly scolded her for that exuberant way to return her hello. "Now now though, you're quite an eager type, are you?~ That's neat to see and I do look forward to become great friends with you as well, but please take care to not stress your Master too much, you hear?"

Though when Genie pulled her close, Shiva whispered to her with a roguish grin on her own, making sure that Terra didn't notice that change in her expression or heard what she NOW told: "But... of course we can make up and share aaaaalll the thoughts and ideas we have to have our kind of 'fun' together! We just have to... beware that none notices anything beforehand, my dear... *mischivous and telling giggle*" Yes, they already seem to understand each other oh so well. Oh boy...

Genie's antics over Cottonee flooffing up to a massive size brought another laughter to Shiva, looking forward to her most dear fluffball evolving into a Whimsicott a little more now. Aww, that'll be when her prankster nature will fully awake and she'll take care to not miss any opportunity to outplay it... Shiva could also rather easily pick up the slight hints in body language to notice what  Genie was pondering about, but she chose to play the innocent one to the outside and give the Flygon herself a look of 'I know what you're thinking! And guess what, I LIKE that idea! But... wait for the right moment, okay?~'

For now though, she waved Raphael to land by her side and asked him to be friendly towards this dragon, in silent though she was quite delighted over his eager to join the ranks of a dragonslayer like a real fair would. Patting his softly by the back, she non-verbally told him that 'we'll train a little and THEN you can have your chance, give it time, dear archangel!'

"Now then", Shiva told as she turned towards the Master of Genie, "What shall we do toge.... Terra, is everything okay? Oh, please don't worry... We'll behave ourselves! Right, Genie?" A wink to mentioned dragon expressed that she she shouldn't take this 'behaving' too serious. They're here to play after all!
