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

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

The thief extraordinaire does not look very mollified as you rationalized Hope's unique talents and regal appearance, but she was intrigued enough to not interrupt you once and completely pay attention. After you finished, she stared at you with a semi-incredulous, semi-perplexed expression, before letting out an explosive *SIGH...* and shakes her head, looking rather exasperated and frustrated by it all.

"Great. Great. The Elders ended up breeding a wonder child out of my girl Lucy that has more than a passing resemblance to mother-err, loving Rayquaza, The Supreme Dragon King of the Skies at his most powerful, and we have bugger of an idea of what's behind it all. Did I mention how great that was? Well, it bloody isn't, but it sure is heck a great big pain in the rear end. Urgh.....I don't know whether or not I want to throttle those old ba-err...coots even more for playing mad scientist on Lucy to genetically engineer her girl into a bleeding demi-god, or just settle for 'only' stealing more their precious nick nacks as thanks for their hard work. *Sighs* .....Well, nothing else to it but for us to raise Lucy's girl right while piecing together everything that makes her special, and trying our dang best we don't fu-err....screw up too badly and make a devil child out of her, instead of divine. Sheesh.....what a responsibility."
Great? More? Rayquaza? Supreme....Dragon King? Skies? Bugger? Bloody? Throttle? Demi....God? Thanks? Hard....work? Special? Devil? Divine? Sheesh? Re....sponsibility? Mmm.....Words! Many Words! Know Many Words!
"Oh, and about her appearance......well, I think I may know a sminge more about that. Long story short, I stole some scrolls from some Dragon Tamer back in Hoen - some tiny black hair girl, never got her name - , and they had some pretty interesting info on Rayquaza. One bit I read is that he apparently has some kind of 'super form' to deal with big threats, and they vaguely described it looking like........well, *Points at Hope* just like her. Included an illustration of what they called 'His Dragon Lord Delta Emblem' , which as far as I can tell is identical to her's. *Shakes head* don't have a clue what's up with that, or if their's a greater connection other than Lucy's child being like Rayquaza's super form, but hey, at least its something."
More Words! Grandmommy, Clue Me More, More!
Hmm......Taylor's sticky fingers have come in handy once more, and what interesting details they bring to the table.....

Also, you notice she was being much more mindful of what she was saying around Hope, so she was also following your request too. Now you don't have to worry about her teaching the barometric birdy anymore naughty words, at least for now! Hurrah!

Once you prop her up, she wastes no time in summoning her person doc 'Mon, whose form coalesced into what looked to be a small purple and pink plague doctor, who took one good look at their surrounding before their hands flew up to their face in mortified shock. Oh dear dear dear, what in Xerneas' name happened here here here!? Some much devastation, so many casualties, and great deal vexation! Ack ack ACK!!!
Hmm? Who That? Smells.......Sweet And Nasty? Huh? How???
Before the medical practitioner could further react, though, your old partner was quick to bark out orders for them to follow, looking stern yet amused, like their doc's behavior was something she was long accustomed too.

"Cathy, patch me up quickly! Hop to it, before I have time to feel even more terrible!"
Patch Up? Hop? Huh?
The now revealed Cathy jolted at their master's commands, before they snapped into an almost comical salute, then extended both their arms towards Taylor and wobbled their fingers, and out came two pulses of sparkling pink energy from them!
!!!
Heal Pulse X2
*Rolls*
(5)(5)(4)(4)(5)
*Rolls*
(3)(4)(4)(3)(6)
Taylor recovers 8 HP! 9/10!

Instantly, the thief extraordinaire looked much better, springing off you and doing a twirl as she cackled in relief.
Ah, ah! Pretty Heal Pulse! Make Grandmommy Better, Happy! Yay! Sweet Nasty Good, Good! 
"Now that's the stuff! *Looks at Cathy* Okay, let's go Revive everyone else now, while Reiner - Yes that Reiner - talks with Lucy baby girl, who's his baby girl now! Come on, let's go!"

As the two of them rushed off to treat everyone, you hunker down and lecture you turbulent tyke, which cause her to noticeably wilt and tuck her head close to her chest in sadness and mollification. Oh no, did she disappoint Daddy saying those words Grandmommy yelled? Make him mad?? No, no! Not good, not good! She sorry, she sorry!

You could feel and almost hear her internal panic and shame at your light scolding, and you could see that she was now actively avoiding your gaze, covering eyes with both her wings.
Understood, understood! No use Grandmommy's words, no use anymore! Sorry Daddy! Sorry Sorry Sorry!
.....Well, you've learned yet another thing about your divine daughter now: she's a real sensitive soul, and gets REAL worked up at even slightly making you unhappy with her. At least, at this stage in her development. Welp, that's going to make her easier AND harder to deal with.

Also, maybe you should specify which words she was not to say? She is a child, despite being a smart one, so she may have misinterpreted your request and took it as to not say any word that Taylor speaks, instead of just the cursing. That would quickly become a problem if not taken care of, to say the least. Wouldn't hurt to clarify regardless too, so.....yeah?

Reiner raises an eyebrow.  "...you've been to Hoenn?  Alright, now THAT'S a story I want to hear later."

In reaction to the info about Rayquaza's 'super form':  "...hmm...maybe it's akin to Mega Evolution or something?  Whatever it is, though, it's probably not quite what we're accustomed to...I'll do a little research later.  I've got a few resources that might know more about this."

At the chick's little request to hear more words, Reiner raises his eyebrow again.  "...well, sounds like she's eager to learn more words, too.  And she's already calling you 'grandmommy', Taylor.  Which probably means she knows Lucy's her mom.  Let's hope she doesn't stress Lucy too much..."

Ah, so that's Cathy.  Figures she'd be one of Taylor's pokemon.  Reiner's not quite sure what that pokemon's species is called off the top of his head, though.  But he can worry about that later.  In any case, while Taylor and Cathy are working on healing everyone up, time for that quick chat with the baby birdie.

Reiner sighs quietly in relief.  His response to the little one's apology is gentler.  "...thank you.  Learning isn't a bad thing, and most of the words you've learned are fine.  I'd really rather not hear you use the words 'goddamn' and 'fuck' though, alright?  Those are some particularly rude words, and the ones I'm concerned about.  We'll be happy to teach you more words, but there are some like those that I'd prefer you don't use.  Knowing what a word means is just as important as knowing the word in the first place.  Got it?"

Then Reiner smiles, still kneeling in front of the birdie.  "...you're a smart girl.  I'm sure you'll make your mother proud one day.  Now then...you need a name, don't ya?"
...name?
"Yeah, a name.  I need to call ya something, don't I?  If I just call you by your species's name, then, I'd have to hope it really was sufficient for an individual like yourself.  Somehow, though, you don't strike me as someone who'd be fine with that..."
...sufficient?  Species? Individual?  Hope?
"...yeah, hope...hope...hmmm...ya know, now that I think about it, that is a name, actually...whatcha think?  Is that a name you'd like to be called by?"
Hope!  Hope!
*chuckles*  "I'll take that as a yes, then.  Hope it is.  Welcome to my little family.  It's a bit of a mess right now, but we're working on cleaning some of the problems up."

Well, that should hopefully address those topics sufficiently.  How're Taylor and Cathy doing on Reviving everyone else?
