[Radley hadn't thought so. To him it would seem unkind to bring up the talk of possession himself. That was hardly a normal situation for anyone to be accused of. But who knew, maybe the kid would feel differently. In any case, he only wanted to establish that he also understood what it was like to have prejudice lobbied against him and would be a good listener, but mulling back over the conversation in his mind makes him unsure he handled it in the best way. If the kid really is on the level, he feels badly about that. He wishes he didn't feel suspicious. It makes him feel like a hypocrite.]

Yeah, I didn't think you would. And I'm sure you wouldn't wanna open up to a stranger anyway. I'm sorry if I'm not coming off well. All of this ... just took me by surprise. I love my Pokemon so much and Team Rocket really makes me mad, trying to steal everybody's Pokemon like they do. If you really wanna try to topple them, I want to help you.

[He prays he's making the right choice. He's still not even sure his Pokemon can fight a Ghost type, though. He tries to avoid them.]
