Welcome to Gaia! ::

Miles wagged his tail playfully at the Pachirisu. "Have you come to play with us?" He barked at it.

September snorted and backed away as Jan approached, but he did not flee. He eyed the berry in her hand. Her words were comforting; the deerling had a vague idea of what 'draw' meant, and from what he did know, it wasn't anything harmful.

The excitable buneary that suddenly appeared startled him again, but he had to smile at the pokemon's quick speech and apparent ease with the proceedings. Perhaps the humans really weren't intending to do any harm?

September glanced up at the pachirisu as it climbed down to the lower branches. It seemed like the wild pokemon would soon have a gathering to rival the humans'! Well, it was only natural to be curious whenever something new arrived in the forest. Although he still wasn't sure if the situation would turn dangerous, he was glad to be among other pokemon, at least for the time being.

September turned to watch Jan slide a stick across a bunch of white man-made leaves. The motion was curious. He lowered his head a bit to sniff in the direction of the berry that the human had tossed toward them, but he did not move closer or try to grab it.

Something about the Pachirisu spooked Chiyo and she took off like a lightning bolt, nearly unseating Shikari. "Whoa, stop! Slow down! What are you -" Shikari had to simply shut up and hang on; the pokemon wasn't listening at all. They thundered off....it was going to be interesting getting back.

[I didn't enter because I thought there'd be someone with less pokeys than me XD]

Miles wagged his tail and barked at the Pachirisu. He watched the little squirrel pokemon, barking at it. He pranced around Rory and the trainer's new pokemon. Miles wanted to make a friend at least, before his career as a battle pokemon took off.

Miles put his paws on Rory's chest and licked his face, he then ran back to his own trainer.

The pachirisu moved quickly, but Jan was able to capture it on paper before his wispy attention was caught by September.
He grinned, not moving save to draw, even as the caravan moved by him.
“Its okay, I mean, its a perfectly good berry. Not too old...” he said in a very calming tone of voice.
“Gosh you're a pretty deerling.” He tried to make the deerling's flower as big and beautiful as he felt it deserved to be. He would need more colors, but he didn't want to move too much and spook the pretty pokemon.
Oh! There was a buneary too! Yay!
“If you dont like oran berries I've got others?” he did hope the deerling would come closer so he could pet his nose!
“Like Rawst? Oh, or a pecha?” He was kind of absentminded, having a difficult time with one of the deerling's legs. He had a few berries from when Del went off with her new friend to look for medicinal plants and stuff. He was glad she had a friend! She needed friends! Friends were fun.

Chocolate had no fear. She hopped closer and sniffed at the sketchbook
“Bunee! (Hi!)” She squeaked, looking at him with deeply colored buneary eyes, “Bunearbuneary? (Will you be my friend? I bet you will!)”


Del's attention was wrested from Jan's inevitable falling behind and to the sudden commotion of Chiyo and Shikari thundering off.
Being the responsible person had become habit for her, and before she knew it she was getting her bike.
“Sperra, you'll help me get back to the group, We're going after them to see what we can do to help.”

Sperra reacted in startlement. What? Go into the dark spooky woods full of pokemon and leave Jan out among all these... people? NO! She would not allow it...

But Del had already gotten out her bike and was gaining speed and pedalling after the pair, her small pack on her shoulders.

So Sperra had to come along, despite her misgivings.

Shikari finally got Chiyo to stop, but it was so dark only shadow met the little bit of light/dark that she could see. "OK, now what?" she asked the huffing pokemon, who replied by lighting up the area with Flash and turning around, only to be frightened by something else and take off again. "Dangit, Chiyo, this is foolish!!" Chiyo being bridleless, Shikari could do nothing but hang on and try to talk some sense into her. Then the Zebstrika slammed into a tree and Shikari went flying - and things REALLY went dark.
