[ it certainly isn't a baby dragonite but the colouring is correct so mai isn't going to judge the chosen name. besides, it's kind of cute. fortunately for them, it seems, since baby dragon ( the real one ) would definitely not be large enough for the pair to travel on.

mai is just full of innuendo that she tosses out at the most opportune of moments, like this one. joey is doing his very best to hide it but that robotic method of nodding toward her kind of allows her to see the internal panic. it just reminds mai that she's still "got it," and she's ready to join him on the pokémon for the ride to what promises to be a relaxing day ( or several ) at this spa location. it's time to treat yo'self themselves — whether joey understands a mud mask or not. ]

I'm certainly not interested in toppling to my death while flying in the air, no. Since you're experienced with this sort of thing, I'm sure you'll definitely manage to stay on the pokémon without issue even with me in the front.

[ you know, with his arms around her and stuff. ]

That so...

[ it indeed seems so because with a little coaxing from the blond next to her, the large travel pokémon seems to comply and lower itself for easy access to the saddle on its back. it's kind of funny how it just flops down and she snerks at it but soon climbs up. ]

Aren't you a gentleman, Baby Dragon, getting down for a real lady to climb up. I'm flattered and you're a doll.

[ and she settles down, straddling to ensure her balance is okay! she peers over her shoulder at joey and motions with her finger for him to join her. ]

Come on, Wheeler. Lets make my first ride memorable, hm?
