"What's this about strange?" Tails asked, laying his chin on his crossed arms. He lay in the shallows, staring.
"Oh, I just thought you were strange for a kid," Jules freely admitted.
"...Well yeah. I'm a Vulpix. Vulpix are strange. Or, all the Vulpix I know are strange. And the Ninetales."

Trigramatic "What's this about strange?" Tails asked, laying his chin on his crossed arms. He lay in the shallows, staring. "Oh, I just thought you were strange for a kid," Jules freely admitted. "...Well yeah. I'm a Vulpix. Vulpix are strange. Or, all the Vulpix I know are strange. And the Ninetales." Tristen made his way back to his clothes and started to slip them back on. He figured if they were leaving, no need to be walking around naked anymore. "So do we go back to Mt. Silver, Tails, or are we going to find somewhere else?" he asked.

"Mount Silver?" Jules asked. This conversation had taken yet another turn into the twilit neighborhood of the strange. He wasn't sure how to feel about this. "Are you with those Snagem guys?"
"Um...Tristen, people don't live on Mount Silver," Tails said, hoping to steer the conversation away.
"No, I'm not -looking- for you. I helped give the place its power. That's how I learned about using thunder stones for a boost of energy. "

"Hah. Like a bad cold," Jules said. "I can't believe they've got kids with them...Is your old man part of this group?"
Tails nodded. "He's not that old, though."
"It's an expression, kid." He started for the exit, hand along a wall to guide him -- it was a habit since scouting days. "Let's get outta here before you jump into a Camerupt, alright?"
"Aw."

"Alright. Uh." He looked back, taking notice to something. "Um, where did you put your clothes, Tails?" he asked. "Another question. Where did Telia go?"

"Oh, I took my clothes out when I was getting the Spoink. I hate wearing wet clothes. And if Telia isn't at another spring, or waiting for us, maybe she found a Buneary and won't let go," Tails mused.
Outside, he did pick up his clothes, laying on the left side of the cavern maw. He glanced around for signs of Telia. Jules stretched. He'd feel bad for eating and running. And if these kids had come so far out, they had a way back. Maybe, he thought, hanging around could net him a fast trip back to the mainland.

Maybe, he thought, hanging around could net him a fast trip back to the mainland. Telia had left earlier when she had the premonition that she was needed elsewhere. But she came right back as soon as business was done. But the hitch was. Hugging Buneary? No. Spinda, who are native to this part of the land, however. "VOIR!!!" "SPPPINNNDDAAAAAAA!"

"Or a Spinda," Tails said, slipping his shirt over his head. "Heeey, Telia, you're not hurting it are you?"
To be safe, Jules stepped once away. Gardevoir were thin, but they could augment their hugs with raw psychic power. He only hoped she didn't think he was a threat.

The Spinda slipped out of Telia's grasp as she wasn't looking, and fell over, gasping for a bit of air, then in its seemingly drunken stupor tried to run out of the area as fast as it could. "Voir..." She then spoke in a disappointed tone. That Spinda was too cute. "Wow, she really likes cute things, doesn't she?" Tristen asked.

"Yeah. Sometimes she even makes me sleep with her. I guess since I'm warm, it works out," Tails said.
"Looks like I'm safe, then," Jules observed. He leaned back against the entrance, arms crossed behind his head. "It'd be creepy if I'm not."

Not exactly cute, she thought, though she did wonder who in the world this was. "Gardevoir?" "Um. This is Jules, Telia." Tristen spoke up. "Gardevoir."

"If you want...Hey Minski, check this out," Jules said, and tossed out his Pokeball. At his feet appeared a Minccino, who stared wide-eyed at the others. Then, grinning, she beat her tail against the ground. "Miiin."
"Aww, now that's cute," Tails said. His eyes went to Telia, and he started counting.

She quickly rushed over and scooped the Minccino up and gave it a big hug. Too Cute! ".....is that a good idea?" Tristen asked.

Though the Minccino was small, her fur was thick. She did not gasp in the embrace like the Spinda. "She's tougher than wild Pokemon. I found her in an industrial freezer during a delivery. I named her after some ice cream. Been training her ever since."
"Aw, who'd leave a Minccino in a freezer?"
Jules shrugged. "She probably chewed her way in. That ice cream in there was pretty good."
He never said he was a professional courier,
