[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

First, Hime was a bit shy with Kee candy action, but then she timid grab a konpeito and eat it. She smiled and wave in the air in happiness for such sweet candy, and wait a respectul bunch. After that, she bow in respect towards the musician, and then fly towards Kogeki and make home in his shoulder. She nuzzle in the cheek of his master. "I guess she like you Kee. Its not something she do with everyone." (...)

Kee keeps his hand calm and open, everything about him seemingly radiates that he's not having any ill-natured ulterior motives and is really just offering some sweet treat to that Ninjask. Octavia isn't opposed to share a bit of what is actually her candy either and lets the stealthy bug do as it pleases - as long as they themselves aren't trying anything funny.

Both of 'em are pleased by the Ninjask's thanks and displayed affection towards their respectful owner and master, alluring a small smile onto their faces. "Well, it's probably not that everyone's giving out free snacks to a 'Mon either, huh? 'S long as ya keep, uh.... oh right, Hime!... in check and from doin' what she wants - aka, obey yar orders - we'll be fine!~" In a more sarcastic and faintly mocking tone, Kee adds "You're really makin' full use of the ninja trope, aren't ya?"

Then he and Octavia begin to share a handful of more konpeitō between them while Kogeki elaborates on his Pokemon.

(*lotsa venting*) “…..That’s how ya get on my shit list. *Looks over to Kee* Satisfied?”

Adressed colorful and toxical musician returns Ran's gaze for short with a stunned and impressed expression, then breaks it and comfortably leans back against the wall more and takes a deep deeeeeeeeep sip of his enhanced warm beverage; all with a gentle and pleased smile on his face. Then, after a solid minute of silence and pondering, he starts to laugh. A joyous and melodic one. "Ahahahahaha.....haha.......ha...... *cough* ....Yes, thoroughly 'n nicely satified."

It's taking Kee another minute to catch himself again and stop chuckling to himself, then he falls into a comfortable silence during which he does nothingelse aside from stuffing himself further with warm drink, petting dear Octavia and smiling to himself.

At last it's him who's ending up breaking said silence in a careful manner. He's still smiling a bit, which mixes itself a bit weirdly with how honest and serious his voice sounds. "....Now though, good and rather comprehensible reasons. Funny thing is, that I feel most people tend to dislike people or Pokemon doing what in your case gets 'em onto your permanent shit list - me included, I despise being told how t'do my stuff or ANYONE talkin' or doin' ill or plain means ill-natured t'wards me or those I care for. .....Yes, of c'rse this includes you, my dear...." Octavia has cuddled up closer to Kee at his last words (promptly receiving some reassuring strokes and pets), being concerned about the weird looks he and his beloved shiny faeeveelution tend to attract. "...Haha, seriously Ran, ya DON'T want to witness to loosing it, Roxie'd be proud of that bad temper of mine."

He takes a moment to cool off and adjust his glasses. ".....You.... 'ppear to have quite a lot of repressed anger boiling eternally within ya like gas within a Koffing, don't ya, Ran? Nah, that's nothing necessarily bad... It's making ya high-mettled and keeps the fire within burnin' all nicely. B'sides, if ya ever go and 'thrash those simple-minded and cocksure fools with yar tongue or pickaxe' as ya're callin' it, do lemme join, it'd be relieving~ as~ heck~ to vent some hate onto someone who's deserving it." Kee leaves that comment linger in the air without further comment.

".... Honestly though, ROWAN outta all people?! Huh..." Kee's visibly taken aback by Ran's opening that the good Prof. made it onto his shit list, but he doesn't look like he's going to pry. "That guy seemed pretty nice 'n good t'wards me, lettin' me have one of his adjusted Starters just because. But... a snake, ya're saying...." Now Kee's wondering whether his doing that is to gain the advantage of free research reports by taking one of said Starters onto the journey and job, and facepalms over him even agreeing so happily. Well... It's not the snowy turtle's fault, he's not going to spite her for that. Never!! "......*cough* Well well, I'll keep in mind what ya just told me 'bout him", he whispers to the blacksmith. Kee seems to really like how freakingly determined he seems to drag Rowan's name through the dirt, THAT'S the kind of passion he enjoys.

Oh and it's for good that Ran's not caling Kee a 'pompous, cheerful smartass' aloud, as that'd earn him more than a good and sarcastic smack. Still better than being called a femboy or ecstasy-addict though.
