"It's a pleasure," Nethan said to Michael, "but I've come for more than pleasantries. You see..." he looked back to Vatier. "His children were stolen by humans and he needs help to get them back." He glanced to Michael. "I'm certain you understand why I'm coming to you." Michael nodded. The legendary Pokémon may be strong, but who knew humans better than other humans? "So when you can," Nethan continued and he smiled at Niccia. "When you can stand again. I would appreciate it if you'd have a word with Vatier." "Of course," Michael replied and he turned to Niccia. "If you can walk." "This may happen again," Harcu said, looking at each of his conversation partners. "One guardian, as strong as he may be, isn't enough. We have our duties in the world from which we cannot stray, but we must find a way to look after father as well. Whether there is any residu, or Darkrai will manage to do this again, this is more than one guardian can handle." Kim seemed happy with the pat, and continued to listen to what was being said. "I'm glad to have her in my family," Andy commented. "She'll be the perfect paperweight on my desk!" Kim's ears twitched and she looked up. "Joking, of course," Andy quickly said. "But it'll be good to have another female in the team. Poor Kim has been surrounded by males for so long. And we would have been lost without her. Benny is the only one decent at household chores. I'm too lazy, Merlin considers it beneath him, Bear... tends to break things..." "Come, let's have a drink," Tanter said, gesturing to the table full of filled glasses. "You just arrived, you didn't have anything to eat or drink yet." It looked like their father hadn't noticed Vatier yet, or he didn't care he was here. "Father seems to be talking with one of the human guests. There was a bit of an issue going on there, but I don't know the finer details yet." He noticed Gavin, Hacru, Kyio and Watcher all together, and having rather serious discussion as well. None of them paid much attention to Vatier; any glances were in the direction of their father.
