"And you being a Zorua, trickery will be your thing in this team," Night said with a small nod, "Fighting skills aren't a necessity around here. You'd be surprised how useful a little ninja-like skill like yours could be."

Trigramatic Ship rolled his new Pokeball about his fingers. He had not expected this bit of charity from someone he had just met. He would need to thank Tsuki later. "I'm...running from people who think I'm a threat to someone else's power just because I exist. It's a complicated mess and I'd really rather not get into it, lest you get dragged into it." "Suit yourself, don't feel obligated to share anything you're not comfortable sharing." He said with a smile. "But feel free to take any empty room upstairs for your own, bed and everything inside. Also, don't be shy, if you're hungry help yourself to anything in the kitchen. I would however advise you to use caution if you wander around the outside of our headquarters. Being stationed in Mt. Silver there are a lot of strong and wild Pokemon around these parts." He said sitting down on the couch. "And, that's about it, enjoy."

"Thank you, then," Ship said. He rose again, and went to Night, staring. "Forgive me if I'm untoward, but I can show you how it works. I just need to get a good look at a person."

"Sure, go right ahead, kid," Night said with a small smile, "Maybe if Eris sees another doing it she'll pick up on the ability."

"Alright. If I get too close, please tell me," Ship said, and the kid began to pace about Night and though he might have been too close as a stranger, his posture was purely clinical.

"No worries," Night said with a small wave, "I've never really had too much of a problem with boundaries. At least not with kids or anything."

When he was done, Ship nodded and took one last lap around Night. There was a flash of blue and when he came back in view, he looked exactly like Night. Or, not exactly. Instead of her Ninetales tails, he still had his own bushy Zorua tail.
"It's not perfect," he said and even this in Night's voice. "But it's good enough. I just hide my tail."

Night stood from her chair, setting Eris in the spot she had previously sitting, and began slowly circling Ship, "Wow, I gotta say this is pretty damn good. Does this come naturally or do you learn it with time?"

"My parents were able to teach me this before--"
A sudden pause. A cold pause.
"Nevermind. Forget I mentioned it. This is supposed to be a happy time. Isn't it?"

Freth made her way out of the room. It was another day for her, trying to make do around here; trying to hold down the fort while the others were away. She could only hope it wouldn't take too much longer for the others to return.

"So, it's something that needs to be taught?" Night asked, not pressing on the mention of his parents, "Think you'd be able to help me teach Eris?"

"It'll come eventually, but it's a lot faster when it's taught. I think I can help your Zorua learn."
With another blue flash, Ship had returned to his own form. "Forgive my asking, but are those your normal colors? I know Ninetales can use illusions as well."

"Sort of," Night said, giving Ship a nod of thanks for his offer to help as she returned to her chair, "I used to be human. These colors I have were the natural colors of the Ninetales I used to have. Long story short, she and I were merged into one being."

"Mm. Sorry about your situation, then. I was born this way. I'm lucky to not know the horrors of forced transmutation," Ship said. "Perhaps somewhere in your Ninetales' family history was a Zoroark?"

"It is possible," Night said with a nod, "In fact, I think Fox mentioned something like that before when examining Aetna. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if there was one in her ancestry."
