"Never said it would be easy.  Or intuitive.  But hey, if a wild Zoroark can do the 'wrong' thing for the 'right' reasons...well, you were there, after all, so you know what happened.  Thanks for being willing to give it a shot, buddy.  We've done some morally ambiguous stuff for the 'right' reasons already, so I do think it has a chance of being able to work.  What's considered 'evil' can potentially be considered a matter of perspective, after all."

Terra's driving this conversation right now, so Nathan nods to the big, possibly more clever than most would expect man to indicate they're ready.  Gallade stands back so as to hopefully avoid making the little pups uncomfortable since he's a big, strong Fighting type.  Calam, meanwhile, simply lays down and waits, likely at least interested in seeing if these pups are really as light on their feet as Nathan said they were...very few are able to match his speed, after all, so meeting another individual or two who might be able to do so could potentially be interesting for him...

Having a rather firm but not upfront sense of right or wrong, the thought of doing anything along the lines of 'bad for good' was a discomforting from a mild to severe degree, but despite that he still nodded along with his friend point. From his many years living in the wilds and meeting with people of myraid backgrounds and beliefs across two regions, he had learnt their was no such thing as absolute 'good' or 'evil' , or one set and well defined right that everyone could follow. No, the truth was that morality was a world grey and undefined. It was up to the individual to make and find their own meaning and way within it, for better or worse, for good or ill.

Of course, just because that was the case didn't mean couldn't try to be a example for others to do good, or encourage other what he felt/thought to be the right thing to do. You didn't have to be a paragon of virtue to teach good, no rigidly adhere to one or few perspectives narrow and broad. You just have to be willing to do it, and suffer the consequence thereof, no matter how hard it may be. That was all, really.

Such was the case with his and Nathan's Zorua. So far as he divined, nobody had attempted what he planned to do with the trickster foxes and succeeded. Or bothered to report they had at least. It was a daunting task to try and teach a particular set of Good and Evil to someone, especially to children, double especially to a Dark type lineage that normally grew off of 'regular' Evil, and triple especially given he was no way well versed in matters of the heart or mind. 

But still, he would try. Try his best to raise his Zorua into a 'Good Evil' Zoroark, and to love and take responsibly for her, regardless of the outcome. Simple as that. Besides, with Nathan, Gallade, and Calam helping him out, he felt confident that whatever the outcome of the plan, it would do some good. 

What kind? Well, who knows? And right now, the only thing he wanted to get to know right now was his dear little fox.

First things first, though, he releases Inabi (S. Diggersby) and Melly by his side, and tells them that he going to be introducing himself to a new partner he just got today along with Nathan's, and wants them to be with him as he does so for their natural friendliness (For he certainly doesn't exude approachable airs!). He does order them to be on their best behavior around her, but to otherwise act naturally and be welcoming. Melly would naturally be all to eager and happy to meet another sister to play play play and have fun fun fun with, while Inabi looked quite open to making more buddies like his boss!

Alright, without further ado, its time to introduce our characters to our Zorua!
