[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

*Flashforward*

After testing out his newly purchased Super Rod in the local waters, Terra set about returning to the Center and heading to bed. Upon entering the lobby, though, he realized with the day winding down and everyone in the group getting ready to turn in for the night that now was the perfect time to meet up with Nathan about the matters he wished to discuss. Well, if they haven't already gone to sleep by now, that is.

Wasting no time, the mountain of a man speed plod his way up to the boy's room, and thumped on their door a couple of times, before clearing his throat and speaking up.

"Nathan? It is Terra. Want to talk with you about.....stuff, like I said earlier. You have time for that?"

Terra hears Nathan respond through the door (Nathan has to speak quite loud to do so, though).  "...come in.  Gallade, could you get the door, please?"

The door unlocks, and then opens.  Gallade's standing there, and politely gestures Terra inside.  Once Terra's in, Gallade closes the door behind him, locks it again, then stands in front of it, placing his arms behind him as he patiently waits and observes.

The room is mostly orderly.  However...the desk isn't.

Nathan hadn't been expecting guests tonight, so he'd actually been working on adding to and reviewing the notes in his journal before going to bed.  And the desk he's sitting at is a mess, a stark contrast to how orderly Nathan keeps everything usually.  There's papers strewn all across it, with all kinds of pictures and writing on them.

In fact, Terra can clearly see what looks like a giant bug with various differently colored body parts (Seikamater), a fairy-like pokemon with what looks like pink hair and two tails (Mesprit), a pattern of dots that looks vaguely like a tree next to a picture of a massive plant, a green fairy-like pokemon (Celebi) next to a fist shaped stone, a picture of the Moltres Egg Heart has next to a picture of a large bird with fiery wings, Deoxys, and Jirachi pictured on seven of the pages.  Emolga's on Nathan's shoulder, looking at them in wonder, awe, and even a little bit of fear.  There's also a picture of the Skull Ruins (which has a Regirock pictured next to it), and a rough picture of Juni.  Looks like Nathan's probably been updating Emolga on what's happened so far...(which includes him telling Emolga that he found a lead on where Marco went and that they captured the person who was one of the main reasons behind his disappearance.  Considering that's one of the main reasons Emolga joined, Nathan would definitely want to keep the flying squirrel pokemon updated on what's going on with it!)

Nathan turns to face Terra, and Emolga chitters curiously.  Nathan gestures at a chair/the bed/whatever can be used as a seat in the room.  "...have a seat."  *waits for Terra to take a seat*  "...so...what did you want to talk about?"
