"Mhm?" Desmond blinked, curious about her question. "If I have an answer, I'll provide it." He stated, waiting to see what she was getting so nervous about. Though, looking down at her, he found himself a little shifty as well; But he usually was like that. She wasn't.

As she managed to ask her question, he stood there for a moment, silent. She wanted to travel with him? While they had just met, he had to admit that'd make delivering the Pokedex easier. She wasn't exactly what he'd call a bad travelling companion, either. She was nice; Good with Pokemon. [i]A little cute.[/i] The last thought made Desmond turn his head momentarily, the look on her face triggering him as he got just a little flustered. Realizing he was being too quiet, he managed to speak up.

"Y-Yeah. That sounds great!" He replied, smiling, somewhat nervously. He wasn't used to it, but maybe travelling with someone else would be good for him. He always WAS told to make friends, after all. "Once you manage to get those badges, I could easily give you the Pokedex, too! Convenient, right?" He added, before realizing what he just implied. Visibly sweating, the young man flailed his arms in front of him. "N-Not that I'm implying that's why you want me along! I've got a lot of other qualities! Eheheh..." A nervous laugh escaped him until he realized he sounded a bit egotistical there. "I.. Uh... I meant-"

He stood there, stumbling over his words, unsure of how to put it. Dropping it, he sighed, feeling stupid about his mumbling mess of a reply.
