I hope we can meet in person, in time. Not only so that I may thank you somewhere quieter and more personal, but... I must admit, I've many questions.

[ Thanking him for the warning about Ascian, that is. She has no idea he's got so much more they need to talk about.

...but he may be able to tell that she's still uneasy sharing too much, even private. Still, she has one more thing she feels she can discuss with him. ] As I showed earlier, Wild Rose - to give her full name - has the intelligence of a beast tribesman. [ Oh, how the term makes her a little grumpy, but she has to make sure the other understands. ] Is this normal?

[gachatia]

[Ah. Well, on that he can nod, a flicker of understanding in his expression. To say the sentience - or perhaps sapience - of Pokemon was something that dwelled in his thoughts often would be...actually pretty accurate.]

From what I have observed, yes. But I have also observed a bit of the culture of this world, and it is no understatement that Pokemon are dearly beloved and integral to everyday life. The, erm...methods, though. The methods of befriending them are a bit...strange?

[He's trying to be kind, but he's. He is Aware of how kinda not cool it is to put a being in a capsule and keep it. It would be as if he toted around a Mord - er, a Kobold, perhaps, as a companion, but kept them in a container.]

While it seems in their nature to test their strength, I don't see much point in seeking out such challenges, and those with me seem fine enough to battle those who might cross our path with hostility. Likewise, I wouldn't...both of mine were given to me by people of this world, and I don't...I am not fond of the idea of capture. But if we were to meet a Pokemon who wanted to join us, and expressed as much, I would not deny them.

[prayreturn]

[ She grows quiet, before she just says it. ] I worry for those who are never let free. For those imprisoned... it is an utterly different situation, but my mind turns to Dalamud.

[gachatia]

I should like to think no Pokeball is left alone for so long. It would be cruel to do so, but that goes without saying.

[Whenever he finds out about where Pokemon go once people leave, he'll feel a lot more at ease, probably. Knowing that no companion goes uncared for. But it's still a sobering thought.]

[prayreturn]

You know I cannot help but be concerned. Especially with such smart friends.

[ A pause. ]

Ah... I do not know if Krile spoke often of me. But before I took over the duty of ending the primal threat, I focused a little more on tribal welfare. But I had to prioritize...

But a kind world such as this must have people who seek those who've been abandoned.

[gachatia]

She mentioned as much. [Perhaps more, but when your soul gets reshuffled like his has, there's bound to be little details that were left forgotten. He would want to be sure of himself before committing to any definite "Krile said x", and not just because she would never let him hear the end of it if he was wrong.] But I agree. After all, if Pokemon are so integral to society, it makes no sense for them not to be treated with dignity and respect, nor for them to be abandoned in times of need.
