[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Well, I was talking about the items at the bottom of the lake.  From what I can tell, they look to be rather...smooth.  And rectangular.  It'll be rather difficult to hook them with a fishing pole.  It wouldn't be any trouble for me to get them for you.

????? Kee gives precious Milotic a mildly confused and somewhat odd look as gazes from the surface of the lake into their beautiful face. σ(￣、￣〃) "Ya're sayin' there's CURIOUS STUFF down at the ground of this lake?" He concentrates as he deeply looks into the lake, but then has to shake his head. "Can't see anythin' unfortunately, the lake's so murky...." But with a bright, charming and thankful smile he quickly adds "Oh well then, well then~~ I'd be honoured 'n thankful if ya could indeed fish whatever nice loot's layin' 'round down there, yes please!~" ♡(◕‿◕ )

Karen lets Drampa look at the scale, and he's curious simply because it's...well, a Dragon Scale.  Beyond that, though, he doesn't seem to be particularly interested in it in any way, treating it merely as a normal shed scale.  Not much out of the ordinary there for a Dragon.  Karen thinks about what that might mean carefully.  "Hmmmm...do you think that means that Drampa wouldn't benefit much from holding it?"

Huh... That's pretty interesting, Kee would have thought - has been almost sure! - that his dear old man of a dragon would kinda enjoy and rejoice over this scale, now he (Kee) gives him (Orpheus) a curious glance, thanks him for his insight with words and another cuddle, then lets him enjoy a bit of a break and freetime outside his Ball as well until they'll all move on.

Towards Karen's mindful words, Kee scratches his head in thought. "Well, yes and no... No, but actually yes. Such scales are usually used to 'volve a Kingdra, not much other use b'sides that is known. BUT me too feels that this scale from that Dragonair - your Dragonair now - is more th'n that, it most likely is. Well, or it only benefitc Dragonair 'EMSELVES? Ya could let 'em hold that scale and observe whether things are d'fferent when they're holdin' 'n not holdin' it, can ya?"

Rui doesn't say much when called over, just nods and quietly walks over.  She walks over to the edge of the water and sits by it with Espeon.  She absentmindedly pets the purple eeveelution as she quietly looks over the water and thinks about everything that's happened so far...

That's by far better than sitting there in the background in silence like an useless NPC, Kee just wouldn't want to see Rui like that. He gives her a timid but honest smile as she takes her place by the lakeshore and quietly reflects over things, he lets her have her peace and alone time to sort her thoughts a little.

Octavia glances over to Espeon with hanging ears, whines a little, then slowly and carefully approaches Espeon to gently nudge her with the tip of a ribbon of hers: It's her way to ask "You're okay?"
