Earlier during the day

With Skye

Shahinne Clone #4197: <Okay... I'm going to wait patiently...> -- and still hops.

With the Katas

-The real Shahinne approaches and lands where the Shahinne clone was a moment ago. She looks around looking for any signs of it then stares up to the Katas-

Shahinne :3 -puffs her plumage: <What is going on here? Who are you and where is my messenger?>

PEFE, Holon branch

Shahinne Clone#4192: <Oh well then this is for you, ahem...> -- puffs chest as she addresses Hikari -- <I'm a [Notification Shahinne] and I bring news that the gentleman of name Ren is giving out Holon Transceivers for everyone in the team, isn't that nice~> -- points in some direction -- <He'll be at the Center.>

With Straw

Shahinne Clone #4190 -blinks: <...Really? Shahinne thought this was going to be hard work!> -- and cranes her head -- <You are still going to pet me, yes?>

Earlier Today, Onu-Val Caves with Eskay and Skye

Shahinne Clone #4197 -flies around Eskay: <Oh! Oh! hey! I got a message because I'm a [Notification Shahinne]! This gentleman Ren says he has Holon Transceivers for all the J-Team, and for free! :3> -- lands nearby -- <And that's about it, I think~>

-and trills a happy note, her function complete-

Earlier, with Eskay

Eskay allows the Shahinne clone to perch on his head.

Shahinne Clone #4197: <Oh thanks~> --and flies to Eskay's head, then turns to Skye -- <Well, I'm only a Notification Shahinne.>

The clone starts ruffling a bit with Eskay's hair until she's made a bed for herself, then lies there.

Shahinne Clone: <♪~>

(Eskay's response)

Somewhere in Holon City

Silent is walking anywhere in the city with Lileep basking on top of his head and three certain birds tagging along.

Shahinne -proudly: <...And that's how I got this many [nuts]!>

"...Copahue, Harriet? I thought we had agreed to not overfeed Shahinne."

The two birds look somewhat embarrassed.

"She's not going to eat all of that bag alone."

Shahinne: <...But I earned it! It's mine!> -- flies around, just outside of Lileep's reach.

"...Fine, you can't eat all of it at once..." -- looks around -- "I should find something to do, perhaps go ask about Crewe..."

Cebu introduces herself and Nanako the Nidoran♀.

"Ooooh!" -- squees at the Nidoran -- "Whossssa Nidoran? :3" -- and leans over to see the lil'specimen.

Lileep meanwhile looks not understanding much, though waves around trying to imitate the movement of Silent's hair.

"Hmmm... looks very very young. How did you obtain this specimen if I may ask?"

Nanako flails when Silent tries to hold her, so he lets Cebu take her again.

Lileep looks with a bit more interest, as does Shahinne from above.

Shahinne: <She's very small! Where is her mom...?>

"Yeah, she looks like she's traumatized. I'm not really sure her parents are anywhere near where you stumbled upon her... Still..." -- and produces a Schrödinger's berry for Nanako to eat -- "I just want to check something. I presume she fell to your hands here in Holon?"

Silent gives the [berry] to Nanako then "intentionally" pokes himself with her quills on a finger while trying to pet her.

Cebu rakes the notes and checks them, then asks about Silent's Nido.. He lets out a warm smile.

"Uhm, no, my Nidorina [retired] long ago." -- he produces his Pokégear -- "I have a Nidorino now, but he's, uhm… back at home, busy breeding."

Harriet meanwhile has taken care to cover Shahinne's ears.

Harriet: <Copahue, why don't we take Shahinne to see if we find any of the others?>

COpahue (Fearow♂) -blinks: <Sure, why not...>

The two pick Shahinne up and fly further into the building.

"Anyway, just in case anything happens, we should be able to contact each other. Give me your number and I can call you at random times to talk to you about my top percentage Nido, okay, bye."

PEFE Holon

Shahinne, Copahue and Harriet hop around the building trying to look for somemons to talk to. Silent also walks some short distance behind, looking for the kitchen.

Shahinne -pecks Harriet: <Mom! I'm missing a clone!>

Harriet -sweatdrops: <Uhm... I wouldn't know what to do about that, dear ._.>

Silent ends up seeing Nico around first however so he goes ask him first.

"Hello? Do you work here and or know something about a 'J-Team'?"

PEFE Holon branch

Silent and some of his mons are resting, with Shahinne noming some nuts she got from Ren while somewhere nearby Harriet and Sol are arguing about something. Shahinne enjoys her meal when suddenly a Shahinne clone lands besides her.

Shahinne: <...There you are!> -- bats wings, exasperated -- <I have been looking for you for four days!>

Shahinne Clone #4196: <I was busy...> -- yawns, roosts.

Shahinne -frowns: <Well at least you did find peoplemons to tell them about the Transceivers, right?>

Shahinne Clone #4196: <No. Found no one.> ^.^

Shahinne puffs her plumage, obviously displeased.

Shahinne: <You should have kept looking! Clone #4194 Mandy poofed to complete our task!>

The clone looks at her for a moment and raises a wing in defense.

Shahinne Clone #4196: <Relax! I made sure they get the message~>

Shahinne -blinks: <...Uh?>

Four Days Ago, at a Park in Holon City

"…And here we have a Starly, another example of Pokémon from remote lands that have tried to set foot here in Holon."

A young Starly is singing atop a tree as some cameramen record her to upload it to Youtube.

Local Starly♀: <I'm beautiful~> -- trills.

-Suddenly, another Starly approaches and looks down to the camera, then perches besides the local Starly-

Shahinne Clone #4196: <...Hey there. I'm a [Notification Shahinne] and I have to send a message!>

Local Starly: <...What? No!> -- puffs chest -- <This is my branch.>

Shahinne Clone #4196: <Relax, it'll just take me a moment~> -- trills.

Local Starly -blinks: <...That's my tone! I'm the beautiful one here!>

Shahinne Clone #4196 -looks the local down: <...No you're not.>

Local Starly: <...What?>

Shahinne Clone #4196 -looks the local down: <You are a bit thin...>

Local Starly -frowns. chirps exasperatedly: <Sure, speaks the light one. And your feathers are too pale.>

-The two Starlies continue having an in-depth conversation and arguing for the camera while the cameramen discuss what is going on; what they don't notice is that after a moment of conversation Shahinne sings a [notice] for members of the J-Team to go pick Transceivers at Ren's place. Hey, they're for free!

(Leads to this chain of events)

Ren and his mons greet Silent as they can (because one of them is being righteously miffled).

Sol♀: <Nice to meet you, Una. I'm Sol.> -- purrs contently, then turns to Fulmen -- <Aaaand I'm going to guess this one mon is much of a chatterbox?>

-To Ren-

"Oh we're doing very fine." -- waves a hand -- "Don't worry. It was mostly Shahinne's doing. So long as she is having fun and she is learning things then I should be the one being grateful or her dad will pluck my eyes out."

-Shahinne meanwhile circles peacefully around the two, eyeing Fulmen every once in a while. Her adoptive parents perch near Ren as well-

Harriet: <Oh, it is you the gentleman with the transceivers, yes...> -- bows -- <Thanks for entertaining Shahinne.>

-Silent, noticing Rey does not seem very fond of the group, quietly asks Ren if he'd be allowed to pet him or interact with him-

"Don't worry, I have experience with Nidoran. I just don't want to intrude."

Sol -to Una: <Where are you from? I'm from the Dream World.>

While Silent and Rey Veneno talk, Shahinne is offered a new recipe. She trills in anticipation and quickly picks some of the poffin to eat.

Copahue -frowns: <Uhm... Shahinne, say thank you.>

Harriet hops closer to Ren and ruffles her feathers.

Harriet the Honchkrow: <So, uh,… what happened with those scientists that you wanted to warn the others about?> -- looks away -- <Silent has been meaning to ask questions about that, but he's... busy.>

-In effect Silent is very busy paying attention to Rey and taking some notes, while the Nidoking noms-

-to Rey-

"…Uh... you are very young then for a Nidoran. But I can understand why Ren did it. I myself have a Nidorino who's fairly stubborn about not wanting to evolve further."

--He thinks for a moment --

"So you get to fight some good fights... anything besides that? Have you ever tried a [Contest]?"

-Meanwhile Sol is shaking her head off some of the mental questions still lingering in her head-

Sol -to Una: <It's okay... that should teach me. And you, what [interesting] things do you do? Silent takes me to libraries. He even bought an anthology of detective stories for me.>

-Shahinne continues to nom the poffin but she remains silent. If anything it should be an indication that she likes it, or perhaps she would have complained already-

At Una's question Sol radiates happiness (though not as visibly as a Morning Sun would).

Sol: <Well I do~ > -- :3 -- <Silent is very insistent that we should be unorthodox when we fight, so he has been teaching me how to cast those barriers using different [shapes]! Look at this - it requires some nontrivial focus...>

-And then she steps back a bit and focuses her psychic power to materialize a Light Screen, which slowly fades in and out until it takes the overall shape of a bifolial surface.

Sol: <Strange shapes help [confound] the opponent when they try to attack through it, but I'm sure you could find a use for these~>

Meanwhile, Silent gets some live venom from Rey Veneno's horn, he then carefully scratches the wound he still has from Cebu's Nidoran and rubs some of the venom on it; he is also 's quick but careful to taste it, and seems to lose himself in thinking and examination for a moment.

"…Well, it's a bit less acidic than usual, but it's not a bad thing." -- examines his scratch.

Harriet -to Ren: <...Perhaps I should call Silent back then? You said you had something for him.> -- to Shahinne -- <Come on, let's go.>

Shahinne rubs herself against Ren's head as a thank you gesture for the poffin, then flies after Harriet. Copahue just stays there, looking at Silent and Ren alternatively.

Copahue: <...Uh, hi.> -- looks nervous.

-To Rey Veneno-

"Uhm... about what you said before... mind if I ask some... more personal questions?"
