YES OF COURSE

[shiro2hero]

[Oh. That's just great. Not only does this thing seek out metal but it prefers iron and hell if he knows if this stupid arm has any iron in it or not -- what if he kills it??]

All... right. I'll --

[Oh my god.]

[It's a miracle, he actually makes a noise that's borderline laughter.]

It's okay. I think I walked into that one.

[[woo :D]]

[abstounding]

[Phew! That could've been unpleasant.]

Heh, well, thanks for having a sense of humor. Even though it really wasn't pun intended.

I think I read in a guide somewhere that you might be able to find metal scraps for sale in towns too? I haven't seen any, though -- but I haven't exactly looked.

[shiro2hero]

Sense of humor isn't one of my best qualities, so... I guess we both got lucky.

[Nah that's a lie, he likes stupid dad jokes.]

I'll take a look, next time I'm there. Sort of like having all my fingers.

[abstounding]

Haha, I gotta say it is pretty convenient.

I'm sure the little pal just needs to learn not to eat the hand that feeds it.

That one was a joke. Am I overdoing it? Probably.

[shiro2hero]

Does lecturing these guys work? That's about all I've got.

[Aw, it's okay, he laughed a little anyway.] Don't worry, I've heard worse.

A lot worse.

[abstounding]

Sorry. I know another guy with a metal arm, so I might be a little too used to teasing about it.

Lecturing... could work? I mean, I guess the point of this place is to raise and train these guys, and behavioral training sounds like a good place to start. Guess I'm just fortunate mine has found a few berries to tide her over until I figure out what else to feed her, though.

[shiro2hero]

I'm not that used to hearing it... sorry.

[No one really touched on it back home, given the uh. Circumstances of it.]

Behavioral training. Do you know if there's any books on that...?

[Because something tells him smacking this guy on the nose with a newspaper won't work.]

[abstounding]

Books... Probably, but I haven't seen any. I did do some digging and found this guide, though.

[File sent.]

From what I can tell, you mostly train them by fighting with them? I guess it strengthens the bond between you. Which sounds useful for getting them to behave.

[shiro2hero]

Thanks.

[He means it, even if it's... distracted. As he tries his best to gently disentangle the Aron from his fingers.]

Going out on a limb here -- [No pun intended] -- and saying they fight each other. It's not me wrestling the little guy.

[abstounding]

Yeah, probably not at this rate, anyway. That guy's kinda cute, though. But I mean, obviously that's coming from someone it isn't trying to eat...

[He furrows his fuzzy caterpillar brows for a moment, before his face brightens again.]

Hey, you're not too far out of New Bark, are you? We haven't tried a battle yet, and I have this old pauldron from home your little friend might find appetizing.

[shiro2hero]

He was. And then the chewing started.

[Give him a sec to process.]

No, not far. Are you sure you'd be all right with that?

[abstounding]

Totally! It'd make me stick out like a sore thumb here, so it's just dead weight at this point. Can't think of a better use for it than helping you and your pokemon out.

[shiro2hero]

I'd really appreciate it.

Is there anything you need in return?

[Because as much as he appreciates it, it seems wrong just to take the guy's armor. Or whatever it is.]

[abstounding]

Can't think of anything off the top of my head. And you seem like a good guy. Don't worry about it.
