@JolteonSalvager "Huh... neat."
Thalia took mental notes and watched closely as Ziv swapped out the parts. And her pointed ears perked up with a satisfied smile when it started to go again!
"Heeyy, we did it!"
Honestly, she didn't do too much besides take a look inside, but it was --
@FerretPokemon That's fine. Thalia seemed to quite enjoy the sunlight and company. And she didn't care whether he would share his story or not. That's his business that she respects.
"Mmhm! It's so nice out here."
Now it was her turn to leap up onto a tree branch.
Except rather than leap, --
@JupiterStrike Immediately, Thalia got worried about how he was after that.
"Are you alright? Maybe that was too hard. I tried holding back!"
It's kinda true, kinda not, but either way, he seemed to be fine!
@JupiterStrike Thalia was ready, took a stutter step forward before giving the electric type nearly everything she had into a pretty solid punch!
"HRAH!"
There was quite a bit of oomph and muscle to it, more than her small figure would imply.
@JupiterStrike Her ears perked up in some suprise.
"Wait, really? I don't wanna hurt you. But if you're absolutely suuuure....."
Thalia took a stance and wound one up, waiting for confirmation before letting it rip.
@JolteonSalvager "Hm? Yeah sure."
Once again, she stepped back to let Ziv back in, the golden fur on her face now stained with a small streak of grime.
"What does the thermistor thing do exactly? You know?"
Thalia was mostly just curious. Never know when mechanical knowledge can come in handy!
"It was pretty cool, even though it looked hard!"
She said, having no real blade experience herself. She might be able to cut it, but nowhere nearly as clean and showy.
"I may not look it..."
Chomp.
"Mm... but I'm kinda good with punching and stuff too."
"You're welcome, it took me a while to learn how to do that little trick pretty well."
Jupiter said before sheathing his sword, feeling satisfied with how well he managed to cut the pineapple for his new friend.
"I'm usually good at punching stuff most of the time."
@FerretPokemon old enough to, but I still live with them, and go back to visit and such."
The psychic let the words sit for a second, before opening up a little more into her family life.
"My mom is blind, so I help her a lot with various things when my dad isn't available or can't do so."
@FerretPokemon Thalia wasn't told the exact details of their trip, but she inferred Villard maybe was from a not so great part.
She paused while he scoped out the nearby area from above and continued walking when he jumped back down.
"Yes I would say so. I'm out traveling a lot now that I'm -
@JolteonSalvager busted.
"Maybe this...? Or is it that...?"
Not entirely certain, she poked around a little more to see if anything else looked off, but not finding much of note.
"There's this small thing in here that might be the problem."
@JolteonSalvager "Hm..."
She scratched her head for a sec.
"It's getting power, warm enough, but somehow that power isn't making it to the next circuit?"
She took another look inside, when she noticed a rather small transistor that looked like it was out of the ordinary, likely —
That sword definitely came in handy! And Thalia was a bit surprised by the finesse in which the Pawmot used it.
"Aha! Yes!
Thank youuu~"
With bubbly delight, the Kadabra took a big bite out of a slice.
"Mmm..."
@FerretPokemon As they pass under a tree, the warm sun hit Thalia's golden fur and it simply made her smile and giggle to herself.
She is in quite the good mood, but she was in one often.
"Really? My mom and dad went there a long time ago when they were first dating and really liked it."
@FerretPokemon "Hoenn huh? I heard a lot about that place! Haven't been though."
Not that she didn't trust his guidance, but Thalia just wanted to make sure they didn't take a wrong turn somewhere. She was also making a note or two along the way for herself to reference later.
"Kalos —
@FerretPokemon called the Orange Islands. And more specifically, Shamouti Island.
It's a real neat place if you like to learn about the traditional culture.
What about you?"
@FerretPokemon Who knows? For a young, spunky Kadabra, she too has some secrets of her own. He just hasn't seen them yet!
Following close behind him, she was referencing the map she had a lot.
"Nowhere near here. I grew up on this small island region south of the Kanto region. A place —
With the map all done, Thalia tore the page out and handed it over to him. While normally, she wouldn't mind just helping out, Jupiter's offer did give her an idea.
"First thing that cones to mind actually is helping me cut this pineapple. Eating these thorns doesn't —
