[Honestly, the hug's not exactly unexpected, and he returns it readily--he hadn't expected to see anyone from home, frankly.

(If his hug is, perhaps, just a bit tighter than Narancia might expect... Shhh. Don't worry too much about that.)

Bettina watches on in confusion for a bit before giving what's probably the Shuppet equivalent of a shrug and floating over to Mr. Smith, just to investigate the Skarmory for herself.]

I just got here a couple of weeks ago. [Give or take a few days, but he hasn't really been keeping on top of those as strictly as he might have before.] How long have you...?

[orangesmith]

A few weeks ago? [So he's still new here. Narancia counts up on his fingers how long he's been here, apparently having not kept track of how many months its been for him.] I've been here for seven months now.

[Mr. Smith gives a brief squawk as Bettina approaches again, drawing Narancia's attention to what's happening with the two Pokémon.]

Hey, Mr. Smith, over here! [The Skarmory gives Bettina one last glance before hop-walking over to Narancia. Narancia gives the bird an affectionate pat before returning his attention to Bruno.] This is my starter, Mr. Smith!

[nellacerniera]

Seven months...

[Even if he's been made aware by now about the nature of this world and time, it still catches him off-guard. His train of thought is interrupted when Mr. Smith squawks and he looks over, meeting the Shuppet's gaze briefly as she tries to look as innocent as possible. He arches an eyebrow at Bettina, but is quickly distracted as Narancia calls the Skarmory over.]

Looks like you've taken care of him well. [He reaches over to pat Mr. Smith as well, but pauses, as if to ask permission from the Skarmory.

It's at this point that the Slowpoke, having been left by the waterside to fish as his trainer chased down the wayward Shuppet, finally moseys over. Bucciarati regards the Slowpoke with an amused noise.]

This one is mine, Teodoro.
