Where are we even going?

Relic Forest

-Herbert looks rather bashful upon hearing Duke's comment.-

Herbert: Thanks, but it wasn't your fault - well, not really, anyway - and I'm not sure if I want something like that hanging over me... I mean, I kind of already went through the same thing with Bishop. I might just call in a couple of favours every now and then, but for now, I think ice cream on demand will be sufficient repayment.

-He then glances down at his Pokegear upon receiving Straw's text.-

Herbert: ...Huh, looks like Crewe's being purified soon as well. All the more reason to stick around, then.

Phenac City

-Straw gets on the rental scooter-

Agate Village. That's where the Relic Stone is. You're probably familiar with the area, you kinda beat me up there.

Relic Forest

"<Ice cream? That's rather unusual.>" said Duke, chuckling a bit "<... Anyway, can you bring me back to the Pokémon Center? Lyuri should know that I'm fine now.>" he requested.

Phenac City

Where I beat you up... oh! The tree place. Yeah, I know it.

Phenac

Seishirou: <Mine's named Umbra. His is named Lina.>

Fuuma: <They're both nice.>

Elsewhere

-Ammy and Lina get the text and start heading to Agate-

Phenac City

Yeah, there. Just hop on, and we should be there soon.

"I see," Jason grinned, before stepping up to the man,

"So, if a certain young man were to approach you with a dream, you would help, right?" Mana sighed and extended a paw to the mon.

<Im sorry. I recently evolved, and Im still kinda agitated. New forme and all...>

Phenac City

'Kay.

-does so-

Phenac City

-Straw begins riding towards Agate Village-

Relic Forest

Herbert: Hey, there's nothing unusual about wanting some ice cream every now and then. Especially in this infernal desert.

-He gives a small chuckle, which is soon preceded by a sigh.-

Herbert: ...Alright, I'll have Maul take you back to Phenac now. Just... keep in touch and be careful, okay? Lyuri doesn't deserve someone like you, but she could certainly use the company.

-He sends out Maul, who stares at Duke intently.-

Maul: ~...Oh good. You're not evil anymore.~

Herbert: Maul, take him back to Phenac City, please.

-Maul nods, then obligingly blips Duke away.-

Phenac

Both Istanbul & Constantinople make a ^u^ face.

Istanbul & Constantinople: <Can we meet them~?>

Phenac City

-Crewe rides along behind Straw quietly-

Agate Village

- Lands at the entrance to the village -

Thanks for the ride, Jayna.

Jayna: (grins) <No problem!>

- Recalls Jayna -

Agate Village

-Straw and Crewe soon arrive, and see DS-

Hey DS.

Phenac City

Hi... where's this thingy?

Phenac

Fuuma: <Mine's busy.>

Seishirou: <Mine is... Wait, he's over here!> -waves Umbra over-

Umbra: -still a bit grumpy- What?

Agate

- Lina and Ammy find the group here-

Lina: Hey you all.

Human!Ammy: So, when do we do this?

Agate Village

- Sees Straw and Crewe -

Hey guys! I assume Crewe's shadow gauge is at zero, or is at least close enough to zero that a Cologne Massage will take it to zero when we get to the Relic Stone?

Phenac Pokémon Center

Duke appears in Herbert's room and looks around for a few seconds before heading out and promptly bumping into Grant

"H-Hey, so... Wait, Duke?" said Grant, looking around for Herbert and finding nothing

"<Hey Grant, I'm back.>" said Duke, with a smile

Grant then grins "So Herbert did it then? Heh, it's good to have you back, Lyuri is downstairs with Sakura, you should go talk with them. I can lend you the armband if you want."

"<Hmm... I guess it would be more convenient if I wore it, yes. Thanks>" said Duke

Grant pats him on the head "No problem! Consider it my 'welcome back' gift." he said, with a smirk

He then takes the armband off and gives it to Duke, who then wears it and becomes human again.

"It's been quite a while since I've used this, it feels kinda strange." said Duke, with a few chuckles "All right then, I'll be going, thanks Grant."

Grant just gives him a nod and Duke starts heading downstairs.

Agate Village

-nods-

Yeah, her gauge is at about half of the last bar. A Vivid Scent and then just being around us should be enough to clear it.

-To Crewe-

It's in a forest nearby.

Agate Village

- Smiles -

Great! Well, let's get going, then!

- Looks over at Crewe -

How are you feeling?

Phenac Pokémon Center

-Maul stares at Grant intently for a few seconds.-

Maul: ~Hi.~

-He blips away once again.-

Relic Forest

-Herbert sighs, then shoves his hands in his pockets and wanders away from the Relic Stone. After a couple of minutes of wandering, he finds a quiet, shady spot, and starts polishing a rather grimy Tsumigari with the bottom of his shirt.-

Agate Village

-Crewe rocks back and forth on her heels-

I'm feeling like I want to get there already.

Agate Village

-To Ammy and Lina-

I just need use this last cologne on her, then we're good to go.

-Takes out a vivid scent-

Last one, Crewe.

Phenac City.

Istanbul and Constantinople look up over to Umbra, and then instantaneously zip away to his side.

Constantinople: <Hello there~>

Istanbul: <We're Istanbul->

Constantinople: <And Constantinople~!>

Constantinople & Istanbul: <And we're here to help>
