The chimchar's eyes lit up with excitement before he started to jump up and down with glee. He didn't hesitate at all about trotting after Lancelot.
"Yay!!! You really are the coolest pokemon around, Lancelot!"
With a fair amount of disbelief, Blade just stood there for a moment, staring at the monkey and the... dog... like.. thing. Sometimes, he kind of wished he wasn't able to understand pokemon well like he used to. Though before moving on, he glanced behind him, seeing the torchic and charmander finally catching up. They seemed a little out of breath at the moment, if not slightly annoyed.
"Sorry guys, but we gotta keep moving. Just take it easy though ok?" he said before walking after the others.
Groaning lightly, Fou-Gai shook his head. He was going to need to give Gouku a good peck to the head later on.

Oh, how proud Lancelot looked as the chimchar called him cool. He practically marched the rest of the way to the camp...
Though, he wasn't going to feel so cool when he got there. When they entered the clearing, Riyo's eyes were automatically glaring at him.
" uh... mladie ... t-they wanted to- "
"I told you to be careful."
Lancelot's ears perked up at her snappy tone, but quickly drooped back down. Yup. He'd done a bad thing.
With a shake of her head, Riyo sighed and looked back at the fire. "Hello again." It was aimed at Blade, though it didn't sound very enthusiastic. She began passing out fish to her different pokemon from where she sat.
Horatius, once again, didn't move... But eyed Blade quietly. He knew this human wouldn't try anything. He just wanted to observe.

Happily, the chimchar followed Lancelot. But he soon froze when he saw Horatius laying ahead of them. The Dialga didn't seem to be raging so that made him relax a little, but the last times he had seen this pokemon weren't exactly pleasant experiences.
The one that ended up spazzing out at the sight of the large legendary was the butterfree. Freedom just zipped behind a tree in an attempt to hide from the dialga's gaze.
Upon arriving the little campsite, Blade paused for a moment as he saw Horatius nearby. He was definitely in a much more peaceful state than the last couple times he saw Dialga. And since he really had not intentions of attacking anyone here, he knew he had nothing to worry about.
After gazing at him for a moment, Blade then turned his attention to Riyo who didn't seem exactly happy of his presence. There was probably a good reason for this, so he made a note to himself to try not to step over any boundaries.
"Hey. It's been a little while hasn't it?"
Gouku soon overcame his fear of Dialga as he noticed Riyo passing out the fish; the source of the delicious scent. As a result he eyed the food being passed out, wondering if he should just try to snatch some up or what.

"A few weeks isn't that long." Riyo replied quickly. Considering how long she was intending to stay here. Her attire was a little different from what he'd seen her in beforehand. A simple pea green shirt and some black jeans. Seemed like she was going for the minimalist look.
"You can sit down if you want." She mumbled and gestured towards the campfire.
When Lancelot ran up for his fish, she only sighed as she placed it in his little paws.
And, with fish in hand, he ran over to Gouku. " i can sharez wif u ." he said with a smile and split the fish in half, offering one piece to the chimchar.

Rubbing the back of his neck a bit, Blade let out a sigh. He hadn't really meant much with what he said. When he was offered to sit down by the campfire, he hesitated some.
"Ah thanks, though if I'm bothering you at all by being here, I can leave.."
Glancing over at Lancelot, Gouku's eyes went wide and sparkly once again. Then with a giant smile, he gratefully took the fish and nodded wildly.
"You really are the most awesomeness pokemon ever!! THank you!" he said gleefully before beginning to chow down on the fish he had just recieved.

"You're here now. You might as well stay for awhile." She wasn't trying to seem rude. She just didn't expect to see anyone, let alone someone she knew, out here in this forest.
"How've you been fairing?" She asked with a lack of enthusiasm and took a bite of her fish.
Lancelot stood proudly as he took a bite of his split fish. The ego stroking probably wasn't very good for him, but that didn't mean he enjoyed it any less. "ur welcum ."

There was a slight pause, but then Blade nodded as he sat down by the campfire. He then looked over his shoulder, spotting a part of the butterfree's wings sticking out from behind a tree.
"It's alright Freedom, there's no danger around here..."
The skittish butterfree peeked out from around the trunk, then made his way over by Kaen who was now by the fire as well. As for Gouku, he was munching happily on the shared fish.
"I've been alright. Just healed up recently so I've more or less been wandering around. What about you?"

"I suppose I've been about the same. I haven't been wandering as much as taking a break from everything." Riyo mumbled through her fulk mouth and pointed to one of the fishes that hadn't been taken, gesturing it to Blade if he wanted it.
Riyo noted out of the corner of her eye that Blade had acquired a new pokemon. Interesting enough, she supposed. "Not sure how long I intend to stay here..."

As Riyo motioned to the fish, Blade smiled faintly before taking it. He gave a nod of thanks to her before taking a bite out of it.
"I see... well at least it's pretty isolated out here.. I just seem to have a knack of running into you in all sorts of places."
It sounded like she was wanting some solitude in this ancient forest. Knowing that feeling to an extent, it made him feel a bit guilty for finding her. It was really out of dumb luck that he, or rather Gouku, chanced upon Lancelot.
"You don't have to answer this but... is that device still there..?"

A knack? It hadn't been this hard to avoid enemies. Oh well.
At the inquiry over the machine, Riyo sighed. "Well, it doesn't have legs. I don't see where else it would be." She said, the sarcasm thick enough to cut. "You don't have to tread lightly Blade. I'm not going to kill you if you say the wrong thing." After she finished the fish, she stood up and walked over to the large structure only a few feet away. Disappearing inside for only a moment, she came back out with two soda's and tossed one at him. She'd stocked up before this little spiritual journey thing.
At the sight of the sodas, Lancelot's eyes widened and he trotted over to his trainer, promptly sitting down next to her and eyeing the can intently. Maybe if he looked cute enough, she'd give him a sip of it.

"Ah sorry. I just kinda feel like I've intruded on something."
What it was, he wasn't so sure. But glancing up, he caught the can of pop and opened it up. The sweet drinks hadn't only caught the attention of Lancelot, as the chimchar came wandering over by his own trainer with pleading eyes.
"The last thing you need Gouku... is more energy," he said flatly while holding the can away from the monkey.
Then, turning his attention back to Riyo, he decided to dig into his curiosity a bit.
"What exactly are you doing out here anyway? Is it just for the solitude?"

Riyo looked down at Lancelot for a moment, opened the can, took a big swig, then handed it to him.
Lancelot's eyes lit up like stars as the can was put into his little paws. He promptly took a seat next to Riyo and drank out of it.
"A lot of things, I supposed. Though mostly nothing." Now she was being poetic. Great. "I don't have a home to go back to, so this forest is as close as it gets. It's where I found Horatius." Her voice was matter-of-fact like. Almost as if the event held no meaning to her.
"And I needed to get away from everything. Figured this'd be the best place."

After taking a drink from the can, Blade looked over towards Riyo. He was able to relate to an extent, but he had to wonder just how much it really was possible to relate to someone that has lived longer than his own potential lifespan.
"Yeah.. it's a nice forest. I wouldn't have expected to run into anyone else around here," he said while gazing around at the giant trees that surrounded them.
"But it must be pretty nice to be able to kinda return somewhere and relax. Even if it isn't a physical house or something like that."

"Eh. Whenever it rains, I can just hold up in the temple. It's not exactly warm, but that doesn't really matter with a big pokemon team."
As she spoke, she glanced at Lancelot and watched him bob up and down. It was somewhat amusing. And answered the question to why she'd given the soda to him in the first place.

For a moment or two, Blade glanced over at Lancelot, who seemed to be feeling the effects of the pop pretty well right about now. Chuckling a bit at the sight he just shook his head. At least he wasn't bouncing off the trees and running around like a maniac.
"It works for you. Like I said, it just must be nice to have a place like this."
Leaning back, he glanced up at the steadily darkening sky.
"Francis probably wouldn't be able to find you here either..." he uttered lowly to himself.
