While Chau didn’t agree with [u]Ana’s[/u] idea, there was no need for him to add his piece in when all the others already had. Simply shaking his head slowly to show he disagreed with her head-on strategy, he turned his attention back to the others in the meeting. Raising an eyebrow at Ser [u]Zion’s[/u] suggestion, he cracked a small grin. There wasn’t even a need to ask Gengar what it felt at the suggestion, but despite its reluctance his companion would act as needed. [b]“It won’t be a problem.”[/b] Seeing as it was the topic at hand, Gengar took the opportunity to writhe its way out of Chau’s shadow. 

To anyone who had never seen the process, it likely would have been downright disturbing. He had leaned forward to speak so his shadow was cast at the back of the chair. From there it seemed to twist in on itself, moving as if alive before something began to crawl out. Black tendrils clung onto Gengar’s body as it wormed free of Chau’s shadow, clinging as if to drag it back within and it certainly looked like the Pokemon was struggling. With a snap though, the black binds released their hold and his shadow returned to normal. Gengar took a perch on the chair’s back as it gazed over those gathered in the chamber, much like its companion was doing so.

Silence reigned after that short display, but it was quickly broken by the chamber’s doors being opened.[b] “Good time, [u]Donovan.[/u]” [/b]The eastern roads were a fair distance away, and given the man’s state, he had pushed himself to make good time to the meeting and that was enough for Chau. As Zokura spoke again, no doubt to bring the meeting to a close, Chau leaned back against his chair. It would seem that the comforting times were coming to an end. The fact that his two partners still didn’t quite get along was a bit of an annoyance that was added on. He could feel the pressure at his back as Gardevoir glared at his, and hers by extension, partner. It was enough to make Chau want to sigh.

With the meeting finally called to an end, Chau stood up quickly from his seat and made his way over towards [u]Sorren[/u], holding up a hand to signal for [u]Ana[/u] to wait for him. Addressing the younger operative, [b]“Since Princess Zokura has given you the choice of a partner, I’ll leave it at that. Pick now if you want to take Gengar with you though. It can take a while to get used to its presence.”[/b] The Pokemon in question floated to Chau’s side, just slightly above his head. As usual, it was never really still, twisting, turning, and flipping mid-air while it glanced between Meloetta and Gardevoir, curiously and tauntingly. That was about the least distracting Gengar ever got whenever it wasn’t in a shadow.
