[Action]

[Armin decided that the best place to watch his eggs hatch is in the sector of the Habitats where he's been sleeping since the quakes -- because someone is independent to a fault and hasn't let on that his home was damaged. But it's better this way, because there's enough room for Meredith-the-Ralts and Murgatroyd-the-Cherubi to cluster around the two eggs, with Gertrude-the-Steelix (who does NOT belong in this part of the Habitats, wow) looming protectively over the little group.

The black-and-yellow striped egg had cracked first, and now it slowly splits open, revealing what appears to be a tiny ball of fluff. Armin draws in his breath, gently tugging Meredith away from poking at the new baby --]

Mareep! You're a Mareep! [This is whispered in the most reverent of tones, then the Warp Band is hastily switched on.]

[Voice]

It's a Mareep!! [Warp Band is promptly turned off, because what is context?]

What legend? I wanna hear about it now!

There's...there's a book. It's sort of rare and special and secret and stuff. And it's all about legendary Pokemon that may or may not be real or...or they were, but they're all dead now.

Do you have it? I won't tell anyone, but I wanna see!

I -- no. I mean, I saw it once and I remember a little of what I read, but....it's in the library, I think.

It...sounds like...you might've seen a Sigilyph.

Like, what's that?

And whatever I saw, I saw a few of them, I just talked to one.

...what's a library?

Still, if it was that...that's amazing!

I'd totally show you where I met them, but like, they were scared of more humans showing up if they let me go--not scared, I guess, they didn't like the idea?

[Also because "never come back" was kind of the apparent condition of "we'll allow you to leave." Not that fear of death holds him back, it's more that he doesn't want to go back on an implicitly accepted deal without a real good reason, not when they seemed to feel strongly about it.]

And no, I meant what's a Sigilyph. Is it that big a deal?
