[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Lord Windos]

Darren gets 4 Ranc Berry Pastries for Swadloon (if there are that many left). If that is more than enough to max out happiness for Swadloon, the remainder will be shared with Glomena.

That'll be all for Darren's shopping for now.

ETA: as for what's next, let's see what fortune has in store for Darren, assuming he still has an encounter slot open

There are! Your Swadaloon, all patched up from their brush with Death by the Barbaracle but rattled by it severely, is snapped out of their funk by the smorgus board of heavenly Berry sweets you laid out in front of her. Her eyes go wide and her mouth forms a big circle like -> ' 0o0 ' , before she looks over at you timidly. Th-this....this was all for her? R-Really? A-After m-messing up with that-that Killer? Really?

Presumably you give her a nod and some encouragement - maybe a headpat or fond rub. Relative novice though you are, and her somewhat new inclusion to your team, you got a real knack with Bugs and you treat yours with the sort of care and compassion that makes other Bug Enthusiasts envious and Aaron proud. 

Swadaloon's eyes have stars in them as she looked at you with awe, gratefulness, and Happiness, and e she scurries over and absolutely goes to town on the pastries, eating and Bug Biting them with such a delighted gusto that has the chef chortling in satisfaction and would get a respectful nod from Vern's Munchlax. 

Before you knew it she was done - not a crumb left of all those Ranc Pastries. Swadaloon turns to you give you a huge, Bright Smile. 

Literally - she glows a bright white as a familiar Light overtakes her form. Rapidly, her form changes, shedding the cloak of leaves she has and creating a new one, and shooting up in height like the bamboo shoots she loves to nibble on! 

Then, it was over - the light of Evolution faded to reveal Leavanny, who wastes zero time rushing forward to envelope you in a hug, fondly nuzzling into you...

Congratulations: your Pokemon has Evolved into its Final Form! She has learned Slash, Agility, and Baton Pass! Happiness increased to 5, and uncapped to 6! Loyalty increased by 1, and uncapped to 6!

Aaron is snapped out of his grim mindset by this wonderous event, and turns to give you a Look for a second...

...Before he smiles and gives a nod, proud of you too in this moment.

"Nice work, grasshopper. Got to warn ya, though - with how Fast you Bonded with your cuddle bug, how much of an gallant impression you in that time, and the fact she's a Friendship Evo.....she might be a bit....overzealous with her affections and wanting to take care of ya. Be sure to set your boundaries straight with her if you don't any problems, boy!"

...What does he mean by that, exactly?

Your new seamstress then looks into your eyes, stars glimmering in them as she gaze at you with a great sense of ardent worship and cherished desire....

Oh boy, now you get it - your her Romeo now, smooth criminal! Oh dear...!

Nope, no more Encounter Slots! You can still have Darren meet up with anyone/all of the PCs later , though, if their are any plans for grouping up and sleeping in the same building or something!
