[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

*rolls*

Blitzle blinks a few times and stares blankly as Pyra gives him a surprise lecture on conversation skills, somehow even less sure of what to say than before.  As she walks past him, he turns to watch her curiously, wondering what the heck that was all about...

The job board is filled with jobs this morning once again.  There's a lot of new jobs posted today.  Looks like the ones Team OS hadn't accepted aren't posted any more.

As Pyra's glancing at the board, however, Blitzle walks up behind her and nudges her to grab her attention.  "...you doing okay?  You look a little out of it, if I'm being honest..."

The less than mischevious lil' fiendess hums curiously at the absence of the other jobs her team had lined up to do, resolving to ask Floette about this later to see if anyone has already completed them. She also makes mental note of the Holey Meadow missions and Valley of Strong Winds one, as the former seemed rather interesting (not in the least because of the prospect of facing a Water type criminal [how exciting!]), while the later might be a task best suited for her friend's new friends to prove themselves useful and competent enough for Team OS. Somebody would have to join them to ensure they don't mess up, though - maybe Karen or Dax, since they seem to be the more sociable and 'coddling' of the group.

At Blitzle prodding, she almost whirled around to snatch at the offending appendage out of instinct/Instinct, but at the last second she decided to glance behind her first to see if such prompt action was warranted. No need to cause unnecessary trouble with her fellow Guildmates, even if she was in a bit of a funk and wanted something, anything to help her dispel it. 

Because of this Blitzle and his in-explicit (to her) curiosity over her was something  of a mild-tired surprise, rather than an a unwelcome ones that were to be ignored or rebuffed.


".....Better, but speak firmer. Less hesitation, more earnestness seeking and discerning of what truths fancies you."

It was at this point she turned around fully to face the striped sprinter, giving him that same dull, tired, neutral stare of hers as last time.

"Why, I wonder, do you ask and wish to know? You have no reason to harbor care or concern for myself, Surging Zapper Blitzle."

And promptly turns the question back to him, in a manner of speaking. Her tone so far has been firm and neutral - and lacking in any hostility or irritation, thankfully enough for him.
