They considered fighting their growing wakefulness, but the growingly familiar warble of a [i]Furret[/i] brought them to full attention. Launching themself from their cuddle puddle, Rin smacked face first into the obviously [i]closed[/i] tent door. Anusobeket laughed lazily as she rose from her sleep, and Olotah threw himself against the tent's wall assuming this must be a very important morning ritual for his Trainer; routine is very important to hone an artist's potential afterall, so Olotah easily respected their trainer's sticktoitiveness. Unsurprisingly, Osajyin slept through the debacle. Zipping down the tent's entrance, Rin bolted out undeterred. [Color=rosybrown]"Come on, Gerseti! Fighting a [i]Furret[/i] is like tradition for us!"[/color] Skidding a bit to slow themself down, Rin looked back at their [i]Girafarig.[/i] He'd learned of his new nickname after Rin had thrown him from his pokéball shortly following being captured. Despite the lovely welcome, he was still a cautious pokémon, so he only meekly staggered out of the tent just enough to scan his surroundings. [Color=rosybrown]"Hey, don't fret. If you lose, you'll still be ahead of Anusobeket in terms of [i]Furret[/i] fights."[/color] This earned sharp protest form the Big Jaw Pokémon, but Rin just smirked as he pulled her close. Rin wasn't intentionally teasing as it was the truth, but they knew how to play along; they nuzzled her into their side just to give her a playfully light noogie. The two's giggling appeared to be infectious as the little scene inspired a small smile from Gerseti who finished stepping out the tent, allowing the naively curious Olotah to walk around the beach; Osajyin not far behind him. [Color=rosybrown]"That's it, bud! Let's go check out those noises."[/color] While Rin, Anu, and Geri would quickly discover Cheri Berries to be the only trace left of the source of the noise, Olotah was off splashing in the shallow water and enjoying being so close to the waters they'd been drawing just yesterday. Osajyin bathed in the morning sun, and held his eyes closed, totally unaware of any possible threats that may have taken notice of his younger brother's playing. That is, if something didn't pop out his Trainer first! [CENTER] [@Balthazar007] [/CENTER]
