Aiden was too busy talking with Roxy to hear the first thing said to him. Not that he was ignoring him, just that he was too distracted. Yet regardless he heard the second thing clear as day, though it wasn't so much as a question but instead an answer to it, "Dumb question; of course it does. Sorry about that."

From there Aiden turned to face the newcomer head on. [color=lightblue]"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were there. I'm sorry."[/color] He said trying to ask for forgiveness for his ignorance. Still yet he couldn't help but notice the man looking over Roxy and himself. Though it didn't strike him as odd or weird, after all the newcomer seemed nice enough.

[color=lightblue]"I wouldn't call myself a new trainer. Been doing this for 8 years now. But I was thinking of the contests and the league. Why do you ask? Are you looking to do those too?"[/color] Aiden continued to ask, curious about this new fellow.

For Zorex he was happily wiggling about in Aiden's arms before seeing the new face. Then with a big smile that quiet literally made up most of his body he let out a cute roar towards Nov. Beyond that he started to wiggle more and more until Aiden couldn't hold on anymore and he dropped to the ground, landing on his feet. From there he walked up to Nov and upon looking up started to let out a series of cried towards the Growlithe that he was holding, ready to make another friend.
