Sophia glanced over at Oscar, the steely glint returning to her eyes as she tried and failed to hide the softness she'd shown. [color=orchid]"Just... Don't get big-headed about it!"[/color] she said hastily. [color=orchid]"Remember, out of the two of us, I'm the one who's not your run-of-the-mill trainer!"[/color] She thought back to what Lan had said just now, though, about how caring for Pokemon was more important than any level of power. Could she measure up to Oscar in that respect?

And although that guy wasn't a psychic himself, he might as well be, Sophia thought bitterly, with that Ralts constantly relaying things to him. She hoped Daisho wasn't telling Oscar anything more about her vulnerable side than he already knew. In any case, at least the other trainer had stopped bombarding her with those nosy questions. For now.

[color=orchid]"But seeing as those two enjoy hanging out..."[/color] Her attention shifted to Lacey and Daisho, then back to Oscar. [color=orchid]"We might as well."[/color]

This would probably go as it always did, she was sure of it. And yet, here she was, agreeing to spend time with him more and more often, despite everything. What had gotten into her?

[color=chocolate]"Fossils? I'll make sure to find at least one, then,"[/color] Amber replied, eyes shining with enthusiasm, as she stood up. [color=chocolate]"I wonder what kinds of Pokemon used to live around here?"[/color] She stared into space, imagining a time when Rampardos and Bastiodon battled it out while flocks of Archeops soared overhead.

"Kabu!" Chalcedony nudged Amber's leg with his rocky head, snapping her out of her daydream.

[color=chocolate]"Ah... Yes. Well, let's find that out for ourselves!"[/color] She let Larimar claim a Pokeball - the trainer planned to let her out in the cave, but it was about time to officially catch the Anorith - and headed out with the others.

As much as she looked forward to exploring the caves, though, worry tainted her excitement. [color=chocolate]"Aedre?"[/color] she said, her voice a little softer. [color=chocolate]"There's something I've been thinking over. You wouldn't mind giving me some input?"[/color]
