It's strange. There are so many creatures here who are so much more fantasy like and magical than a standard Muggle pet. Yet, they still have others that seem so much more like what most people would have for a pet.

[crystalmaster]

Yeah, the Pokemon are pretty varied.... Uh, a Muggle?

[looneylovegood]

[Ah, right... the magic thing again.]

Yes. That's what wizards and witches call people with no magic. Well, people outside of magical families with no magic.

[crystalmaster]

... Oh. So you're from a magical world?

[Interesting. Another one....]

[looneylovegood]

Mm-hm. I've seen a few people here who are from the same one.

[crystalmaster]

That's great! I'm glad you know people here from home.

[He still wished his friends from home could come.]

[looneylovegood]

It certainly helps to make it an easier adjustment.

[She considered his statement for a moment.]

Do you have anyone familiar here?

[crystalmaster]

I found some people from home, but we didn't know each other before. There's no one here I actually knew before.

[looneylovegood]

Oh. [Luna nodded slightly.] Well, that does sound a bit lonely. But, it is a good opportunity to meet new people.

[crystalmaster]

It's definitely good for that.

[His Pokemon all start warbling and he laughs.]

Hey, we can't talk!

[looneylovegood]

[Ella perked up from behind Luna at the noise in the background. "Spin?" Luna just smiled a little.]

Are you able to understand what you're Pokémon are saying?

[crystalmaster]

[The Eevees settle down and Evie looks to Ella. "Eevee-vee!"]

Well, not word for word, but I can often get the gist of what they mean. They seem to understand me too.

[looneylovegood]

I have noticed they seem to understand me. [Luna nodded at that.] They're quite perceptive. [Luna patted Ella on the head. "Spiiiin." The rabbit-like creature smiled.] I supposed I'm still learning how they communicate with us, though.

[crystalmaster]

They sure are. It's fascinating. This pretty girl actually figured out how to type and she entered me in a silly contest once.

["Vee!" Evie says with pride as Radley pets her.]

A lot of other people's Pokemon did the same thing too.

[looneylovegood]

Goodness. I didn't think they could be that capable. [She glanced down at Ella, eyeing the stubby little paws.] Even without proper fingers?

[crystalmaster]

Yeah, it was pretty something. I watched her peck out the keys with her little toes.

[looneylovegood]

Do all of your Pokémon do that or just her?

[Luna was definitely quite curious.]

[crystalmaster]

She's the only one I've seen doing it, but I'm sure the others could if they felt like it.

[Radley is very proud of all of them.]

[looneylovegood]

[Luna smiled a little, a dreamy expression, really, and nodded, picking up on that sense of pride.]

As long as they're not getting you involved in things accidentally without you wanting to be in order to play a prank. Granted, it would all be in good fun, but I know that it can sometimes hurt people's feelings.

[crystalmaster]

Thankfully, mine don't do that. They know I hate being pranked.

[looneylovegood]

A lot of people don't like being pranked, but that doesn't always stop people from doing it.

[Like having one's belongings all stolen and then hidden around the school to find like a malicious scavenger hunt.]

[crystalmaster]

I sure know that. Pokemon, luckily, are kinder than some people.

... You sound like someone who's experienced the cruelty of people firsthand.

[looneylovegood]

There are a lot of people where I'm from who've experienced it. [She looked down.] I suppose... after everything that's gone on with my home, a couple of harmless pranks seem like nothing now. They're usually just for fun, anyway.

[crystalmaster]

[Radley frowns. Putting the pieces together, now he wonders....]

Do you know Harry Potter?

[looneylovegood]

[Luna nodded.]

I do. I guess people from magical worlds are rare here?
