 SukiSuki shook her head helplessly. "If you two think your teamwork is bad; mine is worse... My teammate attacked someone from our own guild in the battle this morning..." She fought to compose herself, and hurriedly wiped the tears from her eyes. "...My family live with the Moon Guild, so to have what little pride I have taken by the stupidity of my teammate is... frustrating." She sighed, finally managing to draw her unhappiness back within the confines of her emotionless shell. "I'm sorry... I'm being terribly rude. I should not have said that."

  Mitch & Cadarl Mitch was about to say something perhaps to comfort Suki, but Cadarl floated forwards with the tiniest of chuckles and intervened.
"I know what you mean. Mitch isn't necessarily the brightest of pokemon, either..." he laughed.
Mitch frowned slightly at this, his features now becoming those of a troubled yet still focused and valiant pokemon.
But, instead, he began to rub his head in a not-so-chalant manner. It seemed he had sustained damage at the battle before.
However, in his family it was traditional not to get assistance for injuries because it was a sign of weakness. Besides, he wasn't dying or anything.
"Where is the rest of your team?" Mitch inquired politely, ignoring Cadarl's comment.

SukiSuki smiled slightly at Cadarl. He wasn't judging her by her teammate's actions, and it gave her a little spark of hope. I was still a little embarrassing, though. She glanced over at Mitch for a split second, not staring too long to keep the Chimchar from reverting back to his usual, shy manner of speaking to her. "My partner Suki is in hospital right now. She has injuries to her leg and skull. As for Kai... probably avoiding me. I sort of... yelled at him... for his mistake." She replied guiltily.

Mitch & Cadarl Cadarl allowed his head to bob up and down lightly at her last statement. He fully understood her situation.
"It was wise that you yelled at him; pokemon need discipline, especially those beneath you," Cadarl stated firmly, a fierce gaze plastered on his solemn face.
Mitch's eye brows bumped upwards at Cadarl's words. Strangely, Mitch didn't agree with this at all.
"Team members require nurturing and compassion to be able to work compatibly with each other. Go easy on him," Mitch added, a charmingly sweet smile on his face.
He then remember that he was talking to a girl and fled behind Cadarl, poking his forefingers together in a way that suggested embarrassment or shame.
Cadarl simply scoffed at this. Mercy was for the weak, and sympathy for the weaker.

SukiSuki expression changed from confusion for amusement in less than a second. She started laughing. "I don't even need a conscience at this rate! I'll just follow the pair of you around until you make up my mind for me~" She joked, looking much happier. She chuckled a little bit, before pausing to think. "Speaking of teammates, are you guys going to raise the little guy?" She gestured to the egg that Cadarl still held close to him.

Mitch & Cadarl Cadarl and Mitch exchanged glances for a moment. "I believe it would be unreasonable to assume that the egg would be male..." Cadarl mentioned.
Mitch would probably freak out if the egg turned out to be a girl, though.
"I think, though, that I'll be able to raise the child into something respectable..." Cadarl muttered, holding the egg firmly.
Mitch frowned a bit. "I think it might be best if I raise it... No offense, but you don't seem like the fatherly type..." Mitch murmured.
The Chimchar reached for the egg, but Cadarl quickly floated away with a look of hurt on his face.
"I could raise him or her just fine," he assured, frowning in a clearly menacing way. Mitch frowned a bit, reaching for the egg once more.
Cadarl backed away again, still grasping the egg. He began to float upwards, juuuust out of Mitch's reach.
"Oh, come on!" Mitch cursed under his breath, jumping as far as his legs would allow while Cadarl cackled.

SukiSuki sighed, and floated in between the arguing pair of Pokemon. "First of all, that's true. You do have to consider the possibility of the egg hatching out as a female. Secondly, I believe that you should care for it as a united team. As EQUALS. Mitch is soft-hearted, and can teach it the warm, humane side of life. How to be brave for the sake of it's guild. And Cadarl could teach it life skills, about finding it's proper place in the guild, and about how to think before you act." She waved around a little bit, trying to soothe the tempers of both Pokemon. "Doesn't it make more sense to expose him or her to as much of the world as you can? Besides, maybe it'll teach you something in return. Children usually do."

Mitch & Cadarl Mitch and Cadarl both sat listening, their appearances rather comical since Mitch's arms were folded with his lip sticking out and Cadarl was doing (the Shuppet equivalent of) the same.
Mitch looked down at his feet. "I guess..." Mitch grumbled, looking down at the ground.
Cadarl rolled his eyes. "Fine."
Mitch looked over at Suki, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He still didn't like hanging around women. "So, uhm... I'm just gonna get going and... y-yeah," he said simply and dashed out of there.
Cadarl sighed lightly. "I apologize for my friend's actions. He can be rather rash at times, ma'am," he explained with a bit of humor.
Oh holy crap. He had just used the term "my friend" when describing Mitch. He visibly snarled.

SukiKetsueki just grinned, clearly amused. "Your formality amuses me, Cadarl." She murmured, almost seductively as she brushed her ghostly shoulder against him. Her crimson eyes glimmering playfully, she floated around behind him, just far enough back to not be within his personal space, but still close enough that the Shuppet could faintly feel her breath on his back.

Cadarl Cadarl looked down slightly, obviously affected by her... charm. He looked from side to side, trying to find her location without actually turning around.
"I find formality to be effective, mad'am. It raises peoples' respect for you," he stated, straightening his stance so that he was standing as straight as possible.
He was, to say the least, confused by her actions. Just a moment ago she had been lecturing them, had she not?
And now she seemed rather flirtatious. This was quite a curious change.

SukiSuki arched an eyebrow. "I suppose it does, Cadarl." She paused, moving around so the Shuppet could see her. Her crimson eyes glimmered with mischief, and.... something else. "However, being called Ma'am makes me feel a little bit... unwelcome. You may call me by my full name, Ketsueki, however, if you wish for formality..." The Misdreavus smirked slightly, almost daring the Shuppet to join her little mind game. The feminine Ghost-type was so confusing sometimes that she occasionally mixed up her own thoughts. It would be interesting to see how the Shuppet handled it.

Cadarl Cadarl took a double-take. He had never thought to consider that formality could actually offend someone, much less have them request to call them by their name.
The Shuppet gazed at Suki's eyes, trying to decipher what she was playing at. She seemed to be quite a confusing and slightly intriguing pokemon.
"Alright, we'll have it your way... Ms. Ketsueki," Cadarl let a small smirk cross his face. He seemed to think that this statement made him oh-so clever; he had mixed formality and in-formality all in one.

SukiSuki seemed amused. So he did know how to play. She winked at him. Now he was catching on. "But of course, Monsieur." She purred, twirling slightly in mid-air. That smirk of his... It sent shivers across her skin. Not out of fear or cold, but... something else. She did not recognize the emotion.

Cadarl Cadarl raised his metaphorical eye brow at her. He was not familiar with the meaning of the word she had just spoken.
"I'm going to assume that wasn't something degrading," Cadarl said gruffly. He doubted, for some reason, that she would degrade him, but you never knew.
He floated a bit higher in mid air, looking down at Suki and seeming to quietly observe her actions, as if trying to figure her out.

SukiSuki smiled. "Pardon me for my lack of explanation. It is a title of honour for a man, equivalent to 'Sir' or 'Mr.'. She explained. Her voice was calm, but that underlying emotion was easily identified. It turned her whispery voice into something more... sexual. Attractive. Although it wasn't necessarily intended.
