Dylan glanced at the Mawile, both apologetic and concerned emotions crossing his mind. He felt as though he could have worded things better when he heard Celty sigh, but knew, even with her reassuring words, that there was still a problem. However, he figured the worst of it had passed, the change in topic hopefully able to make the situation a bit lighter. 

As Devon led the way off the bridge, the Mudkip followed closely behind, a bit optimistic after that brief serious moment. The Totodile had taken to his suggestion, which meant he could ask what he wanted to, and, even though he wasn’t too keen on it before, Dylan was starting to want to join in on the swim. The water sounded really nice and relaxing, despite his unfamiliarity with it.

As he began to make his way off the bridge, Dylan noticed that the antics going on in the river had died down a bit, Milton having made his way out of the water to talk to Zaru and the second Riolu apparently. To be honest, Dylan was a bit relieved by the lowered activity. A nice, relaxing swim resounded with him more than a water war. 

A small smile crept onto the Mudkip’s face as he caught up to Devon, the heavy atmosphere from moments ago now in the back of his mind. He walked to the edge of the river, taking careful steps all the while. Testing the water with a small paw, Dylan couldn’t help but let out a blissful sigh before turning to Devon.
