Hello! I'm not around at the moment, but if you leave a message I'll get back to you!

[preybeforemeals]

[...Oh...dear, um.]

Ah, sorry about that - she wasn't very happy with us, our capturing method was a little abrupt.

[samsa]

It's alright. There's not really anything I can do about it now...and she seems to like me okay, as far as I can tell.

...in her defense, I don't think Rikki likes anyone.

[preybeforemeals]

Rikki...?

[...speaking of "oh dear."]

If that's your starter and it's the particular species I think it is, then it probably shouldn't meet mine - I suspect Rikki and Alessia have some sort of blood feud going on.

[samsa]

[...oh.

...well that's not good.]

She's a Zangoose. I had just figured she didn't get along with any Pokemon, really, but...I found that out the hard way.

[In that she tried to attack a pair of Seviper through his Gear, recently.]

I don't understand why, though...is that just something to do with the species?

[preybeforemeals]

Alessia is a Seviper, if that tells you anything.

[samsa]

[...it certainly does.]

Seviper are snakes, aren't they? She...really does not like them whatsoever.

[preybeforemeals]

Does it really surprise you?

At any rate, we won't have to be concerned about their paths crossing for a while; I'm going to be leaving the city shortly. Not moving on entirely, but escorting someone I know elsewhere. I imagine Banjou-san can handle anything you may happen to need in the meantime.

[samsa]

Well...it does seem to explain a lot. She nearly broke my Gear trying to fight a pair of them on the screen alone. I don't think I would like to see what she would do if she ever came across one in person.

Ah- I see. Are you going far?

[preybeforemeals]

Just to Ecruteak City, to my knowledge. What happens from there depends on whether my companion decides she has other ideas or not.

[samsa]

Hopefully the weather will hold out while you both are traveling, then. It's still pretty cold out.

[preybeforemeals]

I've been going out in it quite a bit at night lately; I'm getting used to it, I think.

[samsa]

I guess it isn't so bad when it's not snowing out...then again, I probably just need a better jacket.

[preybeforemeals]

Oh, don't get me wrong, it's still hideously cold. It's just that I would prefer to be outside doing something when I can't sleep, as opposed to pacing around and what have you.

...You probably should invest in a better jacket, though, Kaneki-kun. You don't want Banjou-san fussing over you, do you?

[samsa]

Yeah, I can understand that.

And I will. The one I found in my bag is way too small for me, so I'm guessing it was meant for someone a lot younger than I am.
