Michael turned to look at the Pokémon hiding behind his legs. "Did you sneak into the party then?" he asked him, an amused sound in his voice. He wasn't sure why Arceus wouldn't want him to meet others, but sometimes parents had strict rules for their children. And just like human teenagers, sometimes those strict rules were just ignored to do as they pleased. This Pokémon seemed young in mind, compared to all the other legendaries he had met so far. Lytse seemed more at ease now. [i]"I don't have any preferences,"[/i] he said. [i]"Just, you know, not intimidating."[/i] It was okay being here and he started to look forward to mingle, especially with Bia doing the introductions. That was much easier than walk up to someone and strike up a conversation. A chubby man wearing an oceanblue suit with a white shirt underneath chuckled a bit, scratching his blue hair with red streaks. "Land boy," Sea muttered, glancing to Groudon. He was unsure how Volcano would react to the nickname. And it made him wonder if his nickname was sea boy. But that was just his name with a boy behind, not really a nickname. He mused about it for a bit as he looked at the hopping Primeape, who seemed ready for the fight. [i]"Yeah, land boy,"[/i] Bear agreed. [i]"We need a battle area!"[/i] Nethan glanced from Gavin to the human girl and back to Gavin. "Are you sure it's love and not a crush? Or just nerves for being around a legendary Pokémon? For as long as she's here, I saw her talk to the Musical Diva's, Chifferi and Xapher. I don't really see the typical human flirting behaviour from her." He moved his eyes and settled them on Michael. "And look at him, he has not strayed from Niccia's side." After frowning at the strange Pokémon hiding behind Michael, he turned to Gavin. "Is it possible you misinterpreted her emotions? It's an easy thing to do, humans are complex and I've made wrong assumptions about their more subtle emotions several times." "The first one I met was Meloetta," Mindy said and then quickly added "Penalopy" when she recalled Penalopy had a sister who was also Meloetta. "well, after Niccia and Gavin, who had travelled with humans for a while. But Penalopy was super comfortable around humans and seems to know us well. But maybe she's the odd one out then." "Netherlu does have a good taste in fashion," Ilios agreed, rubbing his chin. "We should nominate him to handle organizing Star Fall next time." He glanced in the same direction his sister did and noticed the odd Pokémon, but soon turned his attention to Andy and Frosiien, who seemed happy to be together. "Another drink is a good idea," Andy said. "And I was planning of following you around. Catch up with everyone you want to catch up and I reckon eventually I'll have met most legendary and mythical Pokémon." While Ho-Oh was definitely on the list of Pokémon he wanted to have a talk with, he wasn't in a hurry.
