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

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

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?

Taylor chuckles, and favors you with an amused look. "I've been all over the world before and after we first meet, partner. When you have a stellar Teleporter and a Pokemon doc plus whatever energy drinks or medicines on hand, travel time ain't an issue, except in science fiction, tabloid rags on science, or if the dread Time Lord (Diagla) or the Evergreen Lady (Celebi) are involved. Since you're interested, I'll tell you about that job in Hoen later. Fair warning its not that neat of a tale, but I still think you'll get a kick out of it.
Mega Evolution?  After? Steller....Teleporter? Doc.....Energy Drinks And Medicine? Time Travel........Time Lord.....Dialga? Evergreen Lady.....Celebi? Hoen? Kick? Mm...New Words.......Kicking, Kicking! More Kicking Words!
Your old partner rolls her eyes with a smile when you start hypothesizing about Dragons, as it was an old event she had grown used time before exile (If you have anything Reiner might find funny/affable about Taylor too, bring it up and I'll work it in!), but when you mention you had methods of gathering actual intel it caused her to raise a brow.

"Really? Tried figuring out more about these scrolls myself, but hit several dead ends with nothing to show for it, and my sources are always legit. *Shrugs* If your have a way of scrounging up dirt on the Supreme Dragon Lord himself and not get smited, though, then god speed in digging for it!"
Legit? Scrounging.....Dirt? Smite? Hm.....Already Smite.....Hurricane EX Here? Or......God Speed.....Extreme Speed Everything??
Your next comment didn't raise any alarms with her, but she did look vaguely intrigued none the less. "Huh.......Lucy's girl has a good set of instincts on her. Took my girl half a walk before she started thinking of me as her mom, and forever to get her to listen without trouble, but your girl seems quick on the take and friendly as can be. Kinda weird being a granny to someone at my age, and Lucy's probably going have a small freakout about that on top of her daughter being so......different that her, but eh, I'm fine with it, and I'll make sure my girl is too."
Yes Yes, Good Instincts, Good Instincts!!! Got From Daddy, Mommy, Step Mommy, Grandmommy, Granddaddy, Inky, and Windy! Love All Much Much!!!
The barometric birdy instantly perks back up once she hears your lightened tone, and as you clarify things she regains more and more of her cheer, before she starts chirping with excessive glee!
Alright, Alright!! No Use.....Bad Words Of Grandmommy's! Use Her Fine Good Ones, Learn Not Use Rude Nasty Words, Make Daddy and Grandmommy Happy, Yes Yes! Thank You, Thank You!
She got it! She also naturally adores properly getting her name, and does wonders for bolstering her hopeful spirits. First few moments of parenting: Success!

By the time you're done lecturing/naming/bonding with Hope, Taylor and Cathy have already brought everyone/Mon back ton consciousness, with Kingdra at 6/11 HP, Lucy looking fine enough but still on the rough side, and Mr. Mime looking impeccable if severely bedraggled. Reactions to the hatching are mixed.The thief extraordinaire herself is tending to the dragoness for now and explaining what the hecky happened to them, with Kingdra's [Insert What You Want Here],  Lucy's being.....stunned, to say the least, while the psychic butler is leaning up against an wall, overlooking the carnage with wide eyes and a hand on his chest, taking deep breaths looking shaken and harrowed.

Cathy for her part looked very worn out after healing/Reviving everyone, but they quickly sprang back to top physical condition after a minute or two, then reached in their robes and pulled out what appeared to be an PP Up, unscrewed the cap, downed it, and subsequently looked completely revitalized as well! Heal Pulse Count for Encounter/Next 4 Hours Reset to 5!

 Huh.....the plague doctor can use Man Made Items too on top of their powers........very useful combination right there.
