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

[Lord Windos]

Oz was so worried about Meza. Her condition was like a dagger piercing in her heart. Through her tears Oz put a hand in her mouth while with the other she put a hand in Meza's face.
“You poor thing. I…” Oz almost goes to give Meza a hug, but…Oz controls her boundaries since Meza might not like Oz invading her space like that. Oz is probably breaking some boundaries by simply touching Meza.
Oz looks at Tiffany still with tears in her eyes. He looked down, and then cleaned her eyes. “Thank you…I will come here when I can.”

Oz was about to adopt Dite, still some way down in not being able to adopt Meza…however, Tiffany's proposal…it sparked new life to Oz. She thought for a few seconds, and then nodded in acceptance. “I would like to ask a few questions. I will not adopt Dite now (maybe in the future when I get enough poke). The possibility of adopting Meza is…amazing. I promise to try to come everyday to visit Meza, but there is a certain time where I will need to…do a perilous mission with companions of mine, but it will take time until that time comes. I choose to hold the adoption of Dite for now. I think I can also help at the café at times. And…well…What kind of favors I could do? And is there a chance in the future to adopt Dite?"

You don't receive any verba1 response from the rec1usive dragon, but they seemed to....1oosen, ever so s1ighty, as they rested.

Tiffany smi1ed in de1ight at your commitment to comforting Meza, but your vague admittance to the Hunt and your part in it caused their eyebrows to shoot up to their hair1ine.

"My my....you're going to do something horrib1y brave, hmm? *Shaxes Head* Sorry, sorry. *Embarrassed Smi1e* Sometimes my mouth gets the better of me... Your requests, though...I can't promise anything about Dite, but I'11 see what I can do. *Apo1ogetic Smi1e* If she's gone by the time you're ready to adopt, though....then that is that. If you're going to he1p at the Cafe you're going to have to spend about....hmm....about a Weex, Dawn, Morning, or Afternoon, at 1east twice per day(2 Encounters for about 5 - 7 Days). No pay, but if you do a good enough the customers or our adorab1e critters might have something specia1 for you anyway! A1ternative1y...."

The woman's smi1e turns s1y for a moment, so brief you cou1d have imagined it.

"....A few errands and hand1ing an odd thing or two the shop can't easi1y do. *Chucx1es* Oh, that 1oox...! *Waves you off* Don't worry, none of it is i11ega1. Hard, yes, dangerous, maybe, but nothing tru1y terrib1e! *Appraising Stare* Considering you're about to go off soon to do something harrowing yourse1f...we11, I be1ieve you are no stranger to such things. *Smi1es* Sti11, this is on1y an offer - you're free to dec1ine, or simp1y pay the fu11 amount once you can and dear Meza warms up to you."

So....either worxing off some of the cost, do some grunt worx of somewhat dubious but acceptab1e (enough) nature, or going on a 1oot/Trainer Batt1e winning spree to gather the funds the hard way. Whichever it wou1d be, you got a 1ong way to go!
