[ Escha quickly looks up, startled. ] Wha--! ... Oh?

[ Well, she seems... friendly? And the scarf means she probably belongs to someone. So at least there's no need for alarm! She relaxes. ]

Um, hi there! Sorry about the mess, it's just some things I found, I thought they might be useful later -- I don't know how, exactly, but... [ She smiles sheepishly. ] I guess I'm just used to taking everything with me...

[ ( Escha, the Mienfoo likely doesn't... care... about your rambling... Oh well.)

She points to the smooth, shiny rock that Mienfoo seems interested in. ]

Oh! Do you like that one? Like, in particular?

[schachmeister]

[The Mienfoo is actually listening quite intently, her ears pricked forward. She too cannot see how any of these things could be helpful, but she understands Being Prepared. Being Prepared is a good thing, and she wants to help.

She thrills softly at the question. Yes! She does like the rock. Rocks are good things, in her opinion. They are sturdy and steadfast, which are good qualities. And also, when you are strong enough, you can punch them while you train and become stronger.]

Foo!

[With one quick motion, the Mienfoo rocks back up onto her feet, not giving Escha any time to say anything before suddenly she darts off. It isn't too long before she comes running back though, carrying another rock in her paws. This one isn't as shiny as the one Escha has, but it is a bit bigger and a very lovely (or, in Mika the Mienfoo's eyes, at least) dark grey.

Bounding to a halt in front of Escha, she holds out the rock with a chirp. Here you go, she is Helping!]

[ Escha's still getting used to the idea that pokemon seem to actually understand her! She smiles when Mika seems to answer her question with an affirmative, but before she can say anything else about it, off she goes! ]

-- Oh. Hunh...

[ A tiny hoppip quietly and cautiously shuffles out from behind Escha, her nervous (but still curious!) gaze trained on the direction in which Mika darted off. Escha reaches out a hand to pat her on the head, but then comes Mika's triumphant return!! Both Escha and the hoppip jump - the hoppip more than Escha, for sure - but Escha's surprise quickly turns to delight when she sees the rock! Meanwhile, hoppip has darted right back behind her trainer. ]

Oh my gosh!! [ She takes the rook, looking it over with a smile. ] It's great! Thank you so much!

[schachmeister]

[Mika claps her paws together, looking very pleased at the praise she is getting. Soon though, she is bending down curiously, trying to peer behind Escha's back. She could've sworn she saw a pokemon hide behind there.]

Mien?

[appletart]

[ Escha smiles softly and leeeeans to the side. Sure enough, there's the little hoppip! She looks like she's about to hop away again, but Escha reaches down to pat her on the head - reassurance, but also to make sure she stays in one place, gosh! ]

Hey, it's okay! It's just a new friend! You can say hi, right?

[ Hoppip looks up at Escha, over at the Mienfoo, then back and forth again... Then ever so cautiously, she scoots forward. Just a little. ]

... Piiip?
