The man raises his gaze for a brief moment and pauses as he spots Dokan. "...Oh wow. A Flareon. Now, that's a rare sight, eh?" He says, glancing back to Pangoro who just gives something of a disinterested grunt in response. The man chuckles. "Aw, come on, don't get jealous. Lets go get a closer look." He says before slowly approaching Dokan, clearly making themselves known in the process.

As the trainer approaches, he suddenly stops, upon seeing what Dokan is actually doing. "...Huh. Okay, never seen a Flareon...play a game boy. Though, I guess that's not too weird...I mean, even you can use a controller." He says to Pangoro, who actually looks a bit surprised as well, and nods quietly in response.
Still, they approach anyways and when he's finally within earshot, he speaks. "Hey there!" He says in greeting.
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either.Despite what the alien might've thought, Miles wasn't dead. In a lot of pain, for sure, but not dead. He'd managed to get out his gills in the middle of sinking and now was dealing with voicing his opinions on his current predicament, "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, my jewels. Why did that douchebag have to kick me in the jewels? I swear if I ever see him again, I'll-"
Nebula's voice echoed in his mind, causing him to scowl, "Yeah, yeah, I know I should've listened to you. No need to rub it in..." Still in a mild amount of pain, he forced himself to swim to the surface where he broke it and clambered onto the edge of the shore.
Miki continued her walk until she saw the Miles climbing out of the lake. He decided to go for a swim? What an odd time to do so. Regardless, Miki picked up the pace a bit, but slowed down when she realized it caused her pain to spike slightly. She was approaching him as he finally pulled himself out of the lake. "Miles! Miki wants to thank you!"

"And he can talk too! Impressive." The man says, clearly intrigued by Dokan. He glances back to Pangoro and gives him a somewhat cheeky grin. "Hey now, maybe you could ask him to teach y-" He starts, but gets cut off as Pangoro gives him a whack upside the head, bedore glancing away with an angry blush. "Oww! Hey now, haha...I'm just kidding."
He looks back to Dokan, still smiling and rubbing his head. "Nothing really. Flareon are a bit of a rare sight, so I just wanted to come and appreciate you a little, really. But seeing as you can talk, we can actually have a conversation. This could actually help some of my other research, thinking about it..."
Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either.Miki knelt down beside him. "Miki got that... thing... that destroyed Miki's onigiri. Miles helped Miki avenge Miki's onigiri. Miki wants to thank Miles for avenging onigiri... and helping Miki. Thank you Miles."
"You have value precisely because you are ordinary. No organization can last if it has only stars."( This continues from yesterday's interaction between me and Arachnos.)
"Yeah. It was... a place, I suppose, where I was able to swim - there wasn't any water, though. After the whole 'being thrown out' thing, I ended up in a lot of different places, and once something major happened in those places, what happened to me in Gensokyo seemed to repeat in the places I went. Eventually I 'swum' my way to this place, I haven't been 'removed', in a sense, from here yet, so I hope that I can stay here."
Miki sat down on the grass next to him and yawned. "Miki doesn't know. That thing rudely woke Miki up and destroyed Miki's onigiri." She then looked around before remembering one other important fact. "Miki doesn't know where she is."
"You have value precisely because you are ordinary. No organization can last if it has only stars."Noticing her looking a bit down, he sits next to her in the sand and teasingly, yet affectionately, puts his hand on her eyes, showing her a silly smile.
"What happened?", he asks, not beating around the bush, though makes sure to sound patient.

"I had arguments with Thor and Nicole recently." she answers. "Nicole was angered because I floated instead of sitting next to her" she says. "I can kind of get that but she went a bit far and then compared me to Katre."
"Then I went to a friend's birthday and we had bumper tanks."
Beat.
"Long story. And Thor come here halfway through and just start to chide me. Now, again, I can get him, but he once again compare me to Katre. It annoys me because... yeah I can get cocky but she legitimately harmed people, you know ? Not only me but a lot of people. It really annoys me to be compared to her because I get cheeky."

"What? You're nothing like Katre! She takes joy in harming people. I can't ever see you do that. Maybe Nicole and Thor were just really tense about something and just couldn't take anything at the moment. Considering this place, it wouldn't surprise me."

"Ah, that's great. Thanks!" He says, with a nod. "First, though, I should actually introduce myself. I'm Tyrone LeGuardia, but please, just call me Ty. I'm a Pokemon researcher, specializing in genetics." He explains. "And this here's my best bud, Pangoro."
Pangoro stops being tsundere long enough to look at Dokan and offer a brief wave and grunt in greeting.
"As for why I'm here...my work has a large part to do with that. I'm searching for some more samples of a strange stone I discovered here, back when this place was different. It has the strange property of altering a Pokemon's genetic traits with extended exposure, based on what data I've gathered so far." He explains, taking a moment to stop and remove his sunshades.
He takes a moment and looks at Dolan again more closely. "...You're...much larger...and human proportioned than I thought..." He says, finally seeming to realize, and looks at his sunshades skeptically. "Well these are definitely getting trashed."

Old habits die hard, especially when no one else lets them die either.She nods a little.
"Yeah... I mean, Nicole was chilling but Thor is a god so he probably has a lot on his plate all the time. He did propose to make up for it but I was very upset at the time so I... politely, mind you, refused to go to Asgard and trained with Cinke."
"I'm sure that we'll be talking about this later but I'm honestly angry about it. She actually beat me up after all, and she was still very rude to you and everyone else. It's as if I... compared Thor to that dark elf that he fought someday, or Nicole to one of her past enemies."
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterHe takes his hand off of her head, then lays down in the sand next to her, taking off his goggles and looking at her.
"If they really were tense they probably didn't think before speaking. As long as they're sorry about saying it I don't see why you can't stay friends. But it's not wrong to be angry about it... um..."
He sheepishly smiles.
"Sorry, I'm not super good at situations like this."
His smile turns more happy.
"But you know what I think you need? Some fun distractions to have a good time and just unwind. Why don't the two of us go do something in your world together?"

"Yeah, you're right, I shouldn't just train up and smash at the air. It's better to unwind with the person I love." says Neuff, smiling sweetly at him.

Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitter”I get that a lot. Supposedly there’s no humans from where I come from, although from what I’ve been told our lives are pretty similar to what humans go through in other worlds with Pokémon.” Dokan thinks for a moment. ”Are you talking about Evolution Stones?” Dokan pulls out a small, red-ish crystal-looking rock, with what resembles a flame inside. ”This is a Fire Stone. It makes certain species of Pokémon to evolve. Among Eevee, it’s a common coming-of-age passage for one to choose a kind of Evolution Item at age 13.”
