Fortunately for the chick, Reiner's not angry with her for wrecking the place. Not this time, anyways. She is only a newborn, after all. You can hardly blame them entirely for any trouble they cause, and it's the parents' job to clean up any messes that do happen...and also help the child grow out of causing said messes in the first place by teaching them whatever's necessary.
In short, this is 100% going to be a work in progress.
Moving on for now...
...phew, Taylor's conscious. Means Reiner doesn't have to use a Revive on her, thankfully. The same can't be said for Mr. Mime, unfortunately, but that's fine. That won't be an issue soon.
Reiner does wonder who the heck Cathy is, but he can always ask Taylor about that later. He offers her a hand to help her sit/stand up once it's clear she's conscious.
"...well, nice to see you had the exact same reaction that I did when I first saw the mess. I don't think anyone was expecting Lucy's little girl to be able to summon high speed winds...or for the egg to hatch as...violently as it did. Can't say I totally understand why it hatched so soon...unless maybe you carrying that egg around for two years was a factor...but given that I was in the eye of the storm centered around the egg...well, there's your explanation for why I wasn't blown around like everything and everyone else in the immediate area."
Reiner looks around the room for Mr. Mime, who's obviously KOed.
"...looks like you're one of the 'lucky' ones, and Mr. Mime wasn't. I'll get him back on his feet, and hopefully we'll be able to get everything cleaned up in short order..." What an interesting choice of words you've used once again, Reiner...
....hope? Hope!
Huh?
Hope! Hope!
Reiner looks towards the little green Volchik, who's temporarily turned her attention away from the food and seems happy to hear the word 'hope' for some reason...maybe she just likes the sound of the word?
Reiner sighs, then chuckles. "...well, she's certainly going to be a handful, it seems...just like you said she probably would be...heh..."
Insert Taylor's reaction here, I guess?
From what you can glean with your Empathy, the newly semi-self named Hope is a fairly intelligent and bright youth, which explains why she was quickly to pick up new words and form simple sentences. You also are aware of Psychic, Dark, and Ghost type/inclined Pokemon being particularly fast learners, and her Legendary status would logically have a great influence on her overall mental prowess and development. Here's hoping that her budding genuis doesn't cause any trouble for you, or raises more concerns than not!

Your partner readily accepts your aid, biting back a groan as you helped her stand, leaning on you for support and looking rather surprised, amused, and ever so slightly grumpy as you explained what the heck happened.
"I sure a hell don't feel so lucky, Reiner, but I'll take your word for it. Darn and knit me into a Christmas sweater if Lucy's little girl doesn't know how to set the scene, though! Her mum's birth shorted out my house for an half an hour, so I sorta expected some damage when her Egg hatched, but.....*Glances around the room again*.....not to this extent. Not by a longshot. Nor this soon, to boot- put the Egg in my PC ASAP after spring my girl, then brought her out to give to ya once I heard from ya. *Pained shrug* So it beats me why her Egg hatched this quickly too. Literally. *Offers you a smile* I'm glad at least you avoided getting blown down and up, though, so small blessing from the Dragon Gods, those stingy bastards."
She chuckles a bit at her blasphemy, then starts shuffling at bit until she pulls out a plain Pokeball from......somewhere, and gives you a weary smile.
"Mind if you prop me up a bit, while I bring out my personal doc? She can help patch me and everyone fast as a Jolteon, so ya don't have to - "
Taylor cuts off as her gaze passes over your god child, her expression freezing like your Frosslad used Sheer Cold on her as she stared them......before she swore.
"What the fuck?! Why does my girl's girl look.......look like the goddamn King of Dragons Rayquaza , in his full fucking glory?! How?"
Fuck? Goddamn? Ray......quaza? *Excited Chirps* Fuck, Fuck! Goddamn Rayquaza, Goddamn Fucking Rayquaza!
.....Well, several things have been made clear now: Hope's picking up new words on the fly, Taylor's likely going to be quite the colorful influence on the tyke, and that she apparently more aware about them than you are, at least as far as appearances go. That, and Taylor didn't hear the hazardous hatchling, since she isn't swearing about that too. Huh.....
This was me Spiritmon pratically screaming inside Reiner head in see the little chick swearing curse words.
