Action [The Lake Shrine]
[The lake had seemed like as good a destination as any to Kariya for his first real adventure away from the city. It was farther out than he'd been before with or without company, yet not so much so that he'd worry about finding his way back home. And, even if there wasn't any shot at stumbling on an iron vein lurking nearby, at least he - and the Seedot riding shotgun, tucked in snug at his coat's chest - would be bound to run into some Pokémon they hadn't seen before.
All good, right?
Except, when he comes into view of the the Shrine there, the posts surrounding it and the stone structure at its heart, he can't deny he starts having second thoughts. The place is pretty in a way, with its papercrafts hanging near the water's edge, but...Kariya can't decide if "hallowed" or "freaking spooky" is the phrase that first springs to mind for its atmosphere. (Who even hung those things up there, anyway?)
It feels like he's dangerously close to intruding (on something), either way. And so he creeps his way along the shrine's perimeter quietly, as though trying to escape the Shrine's notice...
Or, well. He tries. It's kind of difficult, with Quercus deciding to start wriggling and fidgeting to be put down.]
Tch, would you hold on?
[Kariya hisses down at his coat and does his best to hurry on.]

[Kariya's snickering to himself the whole time as he goes back to his knees and then carefully rises back to full height.
Gosh this is silly, he's not even tall for his age.]
There. Better?

Surskit will make a few chirping noises that, for once, don't sound terrified as it surveys the lake before it.
It is the master of all it sees. All shall bow before it and its mighty vehicle.
Kariya has bonded with Surskit! It is Level 7 but the rest of its stats may be chosen at your discretion!]
