Kogeki:

Liepard addresses the first question non-chalantly.  "Oh, I don't know what's going through the guildmaster's head, honestly.  Doesn't bother me, though, so long as everyone stays out of trouble.  And the guildmaster is a 'she', Kogeki.  You'd find yourself in a bit more than hot water if you got that wrong at the wrong time.~"

Her expression and tone are much more serious for the second question.  "They're one of the most skilled teams in this guild and they know it.  I would advise you to stay away from them if at all possible."

Back to nonchalance for the remaining questions.  "Oh, there's always rumors going around.~  Ladies do love to gossip, after all.  I doubt there'd be much of interest I could tell you that you haven't heard already, though.  Whole town's been buzzing about those supposed sightings humans, after all.  Skarmory feathers, though...hmmmm...no, I can't say I've heard of any Skarmory showing up recently.  They do like to stick to their reclusive mountain homes, you know.  And as far as strange pokemon go...well, you're the strangest pokemon I've seen lately.~  Afraid I can't help you there."

Kee:

"Oh yeah, we dug all these here tunnels.  Always diggin' more of 'em, too.  Guild's gotta grow as it recruits more members, after all.  Most of the deeper tunnels are the residences for all the recruits.  The main founders of the teams live up top, and everyone else lives further down.  And yeah, the guild's been like this since it was founded.  A lot more livable space down here than there is up there, that's for sure.  Doesn't take as long as you might think when you and your mates were all born to dig though.  Some of us even have cousins at a coal mine on the Water Continent, in fact."

"Eh?  Why'd we double the guard recently?  Well...all I really know about that is that it was an order straight from the guildmaster.  We take those real seriously, ya know?  She didn't tell any of us why, though.  Not our place to question it anyways.  Oh, you're one of the newer members of the guild, right?  I think one o' my mates saw ya you're first day here.  A warm welcome from all of us, eh?  Hope the tunnels are to you're likin'.  It ain't much, but it's home."

Pyra:

"Oh, is that how you feel about Marcussssss?  Well well well...tell you what.  With that interessssst in the old waysssss and your mannerissssssmsssss...I think you'd actually fit right in with usssssss.  We'd be more than happy to exchange information if you were to join our team insssssstead."

"And really, no hard feelings, but we really do feel we must take precautions with how and why we ask questions."

"Yesssss, that'sssss exactly it.  We're just being...cautiousssssss.  We had a deal, after all, and we wouldn't want you to skip out on fulfilling your end of it.  Ssssssso, anssssswer our quesssssstion."

Kee (@PhantomUnderYourDesk) and Daxter (@no one) hear Pyra raising her voice to try and make herself heard over the crowd, and see Team Artificers currently surrounding her for some reason.
