She was simply gone, leaving behind a bowl of pancake batter on the counter and a rinsed-off whisk in the sink. Her bedroom was immaculate as always: bed made, clothes folded neatly in her

[Brendan had been enjoying a bike ride on the flatter sands of the desert; his water bottle emptied quickly, though, so when Skarmory overhead signals an oasis, he wastes no time cycling over to it.

WHOOP A DUNE-- Oh. Wait. There's a person down there. And-- holy pedal straps, what kinda Pokémon are those?!

SLOWING DOOOOOOOOOOOWN please don't scatter too much sand, brendan

SKIDSKIDSKIDSKID haaaaaaaaaaalt] Aah, sorry! Excuse me!

[B-but her perfect research scene... well, at least the Sudowoodo are still hanging around.]

Oh... it's fine...

[acro_mach]

[Those are some reeeaaaally convincing cacti impressions ya got there, Sudowoodo.]

No no, sorry sorry. My bad. Uhh, I didn't expect anyone down here, ya know... Sorry! Didn't mean to interrupt! [shajdfjf!! (Skarmory, who has since landed by the water, looks embarrassed for his master.)]

Is... there anything I can do to make up for scattering 'em? Will they come back if I'm quiet?

[Wiggle wiggle! Not suspicious at all!!]

It's probably just best to leave the site for now... [... sigh.] Don't worry. They'll be back tomorrow. This is a very important site for the local Pokemon.

[She stands up, brushing sand off of herself.] Hello, it's nice to meet you... my name is Kris. How do you do?

[acro_mach]

Aw... [8((( HE'S SORRYYYYYY]

Oh, 'M Brendan! [He wipes the rubber residue from his bike handle off of his hand before sticking it out for her to shake. (What a dirty pair...)] Nice t'meetcha too!

[How does he do? Well...] I was just bikin', as usual for me, uh... What about you? Studyin'?

I'm researching the indigenous Pokemon of this area... in particular, those Sudowoodo. They're very different from the wild Sudowoodo I've encountered in Johto...
