[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Boarder Dave laughs too after both he and Kee fall in the snow.  And he continues chuckling as Kee asks about where he caught the Anderind.  "Oh yeah, I totally caught them on the slopes of Mt. Coronet.  Like, seriously, I've been seeing all kinds of weird pokemon around here lately.  Maybe that has something to do with this completely rad blizzard?  Oh, yeah, and before I forget, I guess I owe ya some green, don't I?"

Dave digs through his pockets and gives Kee $1000 for winning the battle.  Core, Aya, and Kee all get 4 exp.

WHOOOOOO free cash!~~ Kee's not going to say no to that, into his pocket it goes to spent on nice stuff or services later on. He too has a bit of a hard time to stop chuckling along with Dave, but the snowstorm's mercilessly blowing his cheer away soon as it reminds him on how F#CKING COLD it actual is; and now he's even covered in more snow. On the other hand, there's the smallest hidden smile on Kee as it's a totally new experience to him who has been living in warmer places ever where there's no real winter.

"*cough* Ah, so ya too are callin' this blizzard a particularly stronge one, do ya? Got it, got it..." *thoughtful and ominous experssion as he brushes some ice crystals outta his dark-blonde hair, but the hiddens smile's still there* "Well, it doesn't 'maybe' have somethin' to do with the increased number of strange 'n curious Pokemon 'round, it 'CERT'NLY' has. Too much strange occurances around, too much that it's a natural phenomena, I don't b'live in coincidences...." Having patted off most snow from his coat, Kee gives dave a compassionate pat on the back as a goodybe then. "Well, guess I gotta get goin' then or else I'll become vivid snowman at last - been great to heat up a lil' by fightin your treasured Pokemon, take good care of that special Anderind and may the slopes be free of stones to step over for ya; sayonara, goodbye and auf wiederseh'n, may our paths cross once again sometime!~" And off Kee and his own dear Pokemon are, eager to get back to the others.

Karen comes back with the Delibird that was scrounging around in the snow earlier in her arms and a smile on her face.  "Look everyone, I made a new friend!  They're so warm and cuddly!  I think I could hug them for hours on end!"

She gives the Delibird a squeeze, and it hugs her back, seemingly making an honest effort to help her stay warm.

Boooiiiii, THAT'S a sight that makes Kee's heart almost skip a beat, it's sheer and plain ADORABLE as heck. A bit of him wishes to go and hug Karen and her new Delibird right here and right now and protect those two from any cruelness of the world with his own life if necessary, but he immediately stops himself from giving in to that as it'd be weirda nd at worst creep her out. But he can't help but to smile suprisingly lovely and give Delibird a gentle pat on the head. "The cutest of friends you made there, aww!~~ Take good care of one another, will ya?~~♡"

And with that, everyone's encounters have been wrapped up!  The party regroups just in time to see the silhouette of a cabin through the blizzard and the upcoming treeline.  Lucas eagerly points it out.  "That's the rest stop!  We'll have to go through some tall grass to get there since there's no back door, but my party's still in good condition!  I'll hold off any wild pokemon that approach us while you guys make a beeline for the cabin.  Sound good to all of you?"

*GAAASP*, the promised reststop's coming into view?! That's what Kee has been waiting for, that's the destination where warmth and comfort are waiting to be enjoyed, let'sa bee-line there as fast as we ccccaaaaannnnnn!~ "Sounds good, sounds prefect, get a move on, let's get going, MUST REACH THAT CABIN!!1!1!!!" Octavia would run in circles out of joy and delight if she woudn't be safe and sound within her Friend Ball right now.

Uhm, but that cabin... Does it look like it's occupied, how busy is it, are there people around? Does it look like a Healing Machine can be expected there...? Pleasepleaseplease let there be one.
