"Maybe we can talk about him after Star Fall," Andy suggested as he walked with Frosiien to the gates. He wanted to know about her life, including the parts of it that weren't happy. Just not just before a party.
He looked back to see if Michael was still with them. Maybe he didn't need to as his nephew was old enough to look after himself, but old habits died hard.

Michael stood by himself as Niccia was being greeted, but soon Illia gripped his hands. "It's a pleasure to meet you," he said to her. "I heard Penalopy say we're ready, so I guess it's time for Star Fall now? Where do we go?"

Mindy smiled at Anylia and then at the Bonsley that was being lifted. "It's nice to meet you both." She glanced only briefly at the Decidueye that approached hers and the woman who was now hugging Gavin. She tried not to laugh when she saw the look in his eyes.
Timothy nodded to the other Decidueye. [i]"I am, thank you."[/i] He noticed Mabel joined them. [i]"This Dragonite is a friend of mine,"[/i] he told her. [i]"This is Mabel and I am Timothy. We are with the human Mindy."[/i] He nodded to their trainer when he said her name.
