2nd [ Action / Voice ]

[ Voice / Action ]

Trading Pokémon's a thing, right? Other trainers do it? [ She thinks. She's heard of it happening, anyway ] 'Cus I got a Pokémon I accidentally bonded with back during that earthquake, and neither of us get along that great with each other. So I'd like to give that trading thing a go.

[ Or she can keep trying to work things out with it but honestly... it's not been going well thus far. This week is a training week for her - making her own muscles work to their utmost and also trying to get a feel for what the other members of her... team... fight like. She's bonded with more Pokémon than she ever expected to, so she's trying to figure out how to work with them. Mostly this has involved having them fight with her and amongst each other in little spars towards the edge of the walls. So you might witness her or any of her team up to that. She considered going out but... well, she isn't confident some of these guys *cough Slugger and Tiny cough* could handle themselves outside the walls, yet.

Alternatively, when she goes to rest, she rests up in the Outpost and hang out there. Looking at the other Rangers gearing up and generally admiring them. She might be there with one or two of her Pokémon as well. Alternatively, you might encounter her going to the Pokémon Habitat to see where her bonded ... team ... go when they aren't with her.

Action her up at any of those places or respond to voice ]

Give me twenty.

[ She's on the far side of town and maybe floors up.

Though she'll also be roof hopping and doing some parkour shit to get there. So ]

All right, I'll see you soon.

[doop doop action now?]

[ YES.

AND IT IS ACTION PACKED.

Namely because Melaka comes down from not down the street as much as dropping down from a nearby rooftop and touching down near where the stand is before looking around for charm girl ]

[Jinxie's over next to the stand, blinking in surprise for a moment before waving toward where Melaka landed.]

Hey!

[ OKAY.

Now she is going to come on over and settle in next to her. Oh yeah ]

That was really cool, Melaka. Where did you learn that?

That? That was just jumping around. I've used the exit near here before.

[ Plus gone to this stand. She gestures in the direction of the nearest exit before she just ends up smiling a little sheepishly at Jinxie. ]

Oh... I thought you jumped the whole way here.

[Jinxie's looking a little sheepish in turn, rubbing at the back of her neck.]

In one leap? That'd be a little beyond me.

[ Well, a lot beyond her... ]

Well... I mean, from rooftop to rooftop...

Oh! That. [ She smirks, a little more proud looking ] That's something I've been doing since I was little.

It's very impressive.

Thanks. It's not that hard, honestly - but then I've been good at that stuff forever. [ Fighting type, and all. But she shrugs at this before she starts to mess with her warp band ] You ask me, talking to Pokemon's more impressive.

I've been able to do that since I can remember too. I guess everyone is good at something different.

Yeah. [ And while she considers just calling in the Magnemite now, she instead just pulls her jacket tigher across herself and makes over to the stand to get in line to get the Aspear juice. Way too cold ]

C'mon, I'll treat for payment.

Thanks!

[That's not a bad deal at all. Jinxie adjusts her own scarf and walks over to join her.]

[ Sweet. It won't be a long line, or a long weight - and the aspear juice will come for both of them, which as promised, Melaka will pay for. And thus the quite sour juice will be there for the both of them. It's chilly going down like a juice should be, but weirdly warms someone up after it's there. She at least has always found it's a good way to not freeze in winter ]

[Jinxie takes a small sip of the juice, shivering a little but blinking in surprise after it's down.]

Huh... you're right, this is good.

Right? I've been coming to this place for years.

[ Since Harth was alive...

But she won't focus on that, despite their relative proximity to the place with all the dead things rumors ]

I'll have to remember to come here again.

[For all the rumors and the somewhat unsettlingly large population of Ghost Pokemon in Jinxie's neighborhood, its residents are actually quite peaceful and cheerful. It's just hard to shake off that aura of creepiness if you weren't born and raised in it.]

You should, makes the winter better. I'm just glad you like it, 'cus it'd be a bad payment if you didn't.

[ And one more sip later, she fiddles with her warp band again, to summon in whatever manner the warp band does that, the Magnemite in question. The floating steel eyeball appears and then looks around a moment before relatively speaking stonefacing ]

[Jinxie tilts her head at the Magnemite as it comes out, taking a step forward before greeting it with a small wave.]

Um... hi. I'm Jinxie.

[Her Kindred Soul ability should let her understand its speech, as far as Magnemites actually say anything at all, so with any luck she'll be able to figure out what's going on here.]

[ Melaka looks between the two, hoping that Jinxie can get a conversation going...

And wonders if maybe they should go somewhere more private? Eh, who cares. It's not like a pokemon has anything to be personal about. Or at least, this one doesn't.

As for the Magnemite, it's unfortunately a Quiet nature, which means it talks less than a normal metal eyeball. Still, it is polite. ... Not really. But it does answer in the form of floating up and then down. Which may have been a nod... ]

Melaka wanted me to talk to you and find out how you feel about her. She wants to understand you better, but she isn't sure how.

[Jinxie looks to Melaka for confirmation that she got that right, allowing her to interject if she wants before looking back to Magnemite for a response.]

[ She nods. And she adds- ] We kinda got off on a weird foot.

[ the Magnemite floats in place there though. Just silent. Just floating... But then as it shifts from one direction to another one, it ends up speaking finally with an oddly robotic tone to say "Frustrating"

because that describes a lot clearly. ]
