Aedre didn’t believe Sophia for a second when the brunette claimed that she was “fine,” but she stepped back to give the girl some space, understanding that sometimes problems required silence and self contemplation. When a black-haired boy with a Ralts stepped up, offering Sophia help, Aedre realized that she was being too forward. She’d just met Sophia today, and was already acting like they had been friends for some time. 

[i]I’m probably being too forward,[/i] Aedre thought, staying silent as Rheese ran over as well, panting as he challenged the other boy’s statement. Aedre was about to chime in when Sophia burst out that her loss had just been bad luck. Pausing, Aedre watched blankly as the black-haired boy and Alex, now that he’d caught up as well, tried to comfort Sophia again. While she sided with Alex in that losses ought to be taken, accepted, and improved upon, Aedre also knew that Sophia needed space — and was too proud to say it outright.

[color=wheat]“I’ll head out with Alex then,”[/color] she said, choosing to avoid the subject of the battle entirely. [color=wheat]“Maybe you can join us after visiting the Pokemon Center, and we can squeeze in some practice matches.”[/color]
