[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Kogeki took a moment to analyze such item in his hands and after a while he talk to Gastrodon. "Hmm. It might come in handy. This item might help my companions very soon. Thank you Gastrodon."

Next Scene!

@Lord Windos

After deal with Gastrodon business Kogeki meet Pyra. "Heya. I okay I guess. Took care already of the problem with Braixen. We in good terms now after I apologise, so you can rest your mind about it. There is also a few things to discuss. Follow me."

While Kogeki was walking with Pyra, he make sure no Pokemon was around and tell her some information. "There are rumors indeed about a possible crime organization where that Monferno was a member. The Guildmaster send a group to the Hall of Magic for investigation to see if there is anything else left there and who can lead to Monferno companions. For now, we act as we were doing before. Do missions, and taking breaks after everything."

"There something else..." Kogeki approach Pyra and whisper some words who only he and Pyra can hear. "There are rumors coming around the town about humans. Some Mail Peliper see the lights where we came from. The Guildmaster inquire if we know anything, but we say we don't know anything about it. Don't know if she suspect us, but stay alert every time Pyra."

Kogeki then explained what he get from the treasure chest, and about Pyra inquire him about taking from him, Kogeki nod his head and give to her. "Sure. You been helping us quite a lot since we meet, so you can have it. It will do wonders with your Intimidate ability."

(I sorta implied that Pyra's request happened while with Gastrodon, but it being moved down the line and in private isn't a huge deal so I'll adapt)

*Scene Before the Request*

Pyra's mood immediately brightened when her spectral ninja friend told her the good news, suddenly grasping both his paws and hop-dancing with a smile.

"Good, great, wonderful! Now shall we not have to fear the wrath of Boss Delphox or the Guild, yes yes! Thank you, my gratitude to you Kogeki!"

His request for privacy for the next thing(s) he wished to discussed was easily aquisted to, and soon enough she was listening quietly but intently about what he said about the criminal network that Monferno they caught belong too. Once all was said about that....

"*Tilts yer head* .....Hmm, *Nods* Okay and indeed, Kogeki. "

...she didn't have too big of a reaction to the news. In fact you could say she just didn't really care about it much at all. Seems like she doesn't consider this matter a big deal to her, hmm....

His suspicions about the group's true nature, however, caused her to straighten up immediately with a somber expression, and she silently nodded back to his warning. The brimstone imp didn't care about her former humanity or thought it was a more than an incidental fact about the group at large, but she knew that others had much different views on this and that other former humans had been targeted/disappeared lately, so caution must bet taken to keep those in the know about  their 'humanity' small and well vetted. 

*Scene of the Trade!*

As the phantom brave breezily agreed to her request and handed the TM to her, she was stunned for just a moment, before a positively brilliant smile grace her impish features. Then, acting on impulse, she reached over with a free hand to grab him by the shoulder and pull him close to kiss him on the cheek, not pulling away for several long seconds. When she did she still had that same smile, though it was tinged with a certain impishness and something....else. It was also at that moment that Kogeki would notice that his Bag had gotten heavier, and upon inspection he'd find exactly one Gold Bar among whatever else was in it. How in the world did she....?

"Oh my deepest thanks, dear sweet Kogeki the Phantom Brave! Our pact-transaction is done and sealed, yes, and let us together be happy with our deal!"

Welp, that happened! 

Afterward that burst of affection from the mischevious demoness, she'd inspect her newly acquired TM closely and thoroughly trying to figure out what about it called to her so strongly (IE: She Learns Bulk Up from it, but in an accidental way if possible Dragonstrike. After all she doesn't know what TMs are exactly or how they work!). Let her burgeoning curiosity unveil this brick red discs' secrets.....!
