[Game Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

...Oh, and HOW smoll Ziggy Kee stares at the graceful Virizion!~ The moment his deep-red eyes spot the big gazelle-like Grass type, Kee abruptly stops in his tracks, completely baffled and awestruck by her lovely appearance... He even feels a faint blush developing on his furry face and his tiny heart beating fasther! NEVER BEFORE has he seen such elegance and beauty in a Pokemon, neither as a Pokemon himself nor as a human (at least not in whatever memories remain from his past human life) - well, apart from his dear partnermon Octavia.:*☆, that is, which is a completely different matter. 'Oh thank the heavens and above for letting me become a Pokemon mahself and getting the chance to admire such a noble fellow Pokemon', Kee thinks to himself.

Somewhat muffled Virizion's words of greeting reach Kee, but they're enough to cause him to get startled, become defensive in an instant and, after a second that felt like half an eternity has passed, return to the current planet and place. He shakes his head in order to clear his mind fully, then coughs in embarassement. Not that this reduces his fainnnnt blush and mildly accelerated heartbeat, but now is NOT the time for any sweet talk, nopeeee ! (>0<＃) "Uh...", Kee begins, "Well there, 't is a pleasure t'meet ya three!~" He bows his furry head in a respectful greeting. "And, hehe, no worries, dear-me 's indeed nat from 'round here, ya're completely c'rrect on that, Emolga!~" Another cough, Kee's trying hard to get back into a I-am-buy-with-serious-stuff-and-on-an-important-mission sort of mindset. A friendly yet toothy smile is still displayed by the crittercoon. "And yes, ya can 'ndeed help me with somethin', but lemme introduce mahself firstly, k? K, thanks!~" Kee takes a proud and self-confident posture, regardless how often he has and will need to explain why he's here, he never gets bored of it nor does it descrease his courage! "Ziggy Kee or just Kee is mah name, proud member of Team OS an' Delphox's Guild, we've been coming along with dear Espeon and Umbreon to yar continent on an 'mportant an' special mission, ya see." +100% pride and gleeming confidence for Kee as doesn't matter how often he repeats it, it's still meaning a lot for him to have been picked for this mission by the Guildmaster, hehe.

"...And while we're on it, it came to Team OS's humble ears that here at paradise things aren't as paradisic as they used t'be, 's that whereabouts of Sue are unclear, filling Haxorus with extra-grief an' worry." Kee lets his ears hang for a moment, but almost immediately rears up to radiate positive and comforting vibes. "Cannot and will not let that be, so we vowed t' help y'all bringing her back to where she b'longs, 'specially after hearing how much she has done for y'all and how she gave ya a truckload of hope! Been told by kind Hydreigon that ya three were among the last ones havin' had contact with Sue, so... D'ya have any clue or ideas where she may have gone? Did she...mention anything that may bring us on her tracks? Anything, however small, may be 'mportant!"

A Small Bit of Hope: Theme of Hope (Light Arrangement 3) - PMD: GtI

Virizion smiles sweetly.  "Well, it's nice to meet you, Kee.  I'm Virizion, and these two are Emolga and Dunsparce."

"And we're proud members of Emolga's Enforcers!  If you ever have a problem, just leave it to us!"

"What he actually means is we're members of Team Paradise.  And that we're actually in a bit of a pickle ourselves..."

"Why you gotta be such a downer, Dunsparce?  Sure, we don't know where Sue went, but..."

"It's very kind of you to take time out of what I assume is a very busy schedule to help us, Kee.  A friend of Espeon and Umbreon is a friend of ours.  I'm afraid we don't know much more about Sue's whereabouts than you do, however.  Dunsparce was the last one to see her, to be more exact."

"Well, uh...it's not like she told me where she was going...I know she was preparing to go somewhere cold from the scarf she was wrapping around her neck and the Focus Blast TM she was carrying, but that could be any number of locations she was planning to visit."

"We've been trying to figure out where exactly she might have went in the frozen north, but we can't think of any reasons why she would have wanted to head up there in the first place.  All of the mystery dungeons we can think of are suuuuuuper dangerous or far away.  Or both!"

"Well, there is one icy dungeon that's not too far away or particularly dangerous..."

"Yeah, but the Glacier Palace was completely destroyed after Sue beat the Bittercold, right?  I don't think there's any reason for her to go to the Great Glacier.  Besides, she'd need help from Espeon and Umbreon to get there.  It's not exactly an easy to reach location."

"Maybe..."

"If you find out anything more specific or have any ideas, Kee, we would love to hear it.  Knowing that there's others willing to help us brings us hope.  So, how about you and your team?  What can we help with regarding your special mission?  We were just about to head to the forest plaza, so why don't you tell us about it on the way there?"
