[ as it's still raining and there isn't a roof over her head quite yet, Rise is improvising by-- huddling in her sleeping bag. And she's got company, as the screen shows glimpses of something blue curled against her and a Sentret peeking out curiously at the rain. Its trainer just looks exhausted, and more than a little embarrassed. ]So if anyone

Yeah, that was...kind of a baptism by fire there. Not fun to go through, but we came out of it for the better.

[restardom]

-- It was Athrun, right? Thanks again for the help.

[shieldofjustice]

Don't mention it. I agreed to come along, so it was the least I could do.

[restardom]

I can promise you that won't happen again. Man, it was such a stupid mistake, too--

[shieldofjustice]

Don't worry too much about it. In the end, we came out better. At the very least, Scyther got stronger, I caught a Pidgey, and I'm feeling more confident.

[restardom]

You looked confident from the beginning, but I'm glad it helped!

[shieldofjustice]

I wasn't so much confident as I was trying to keep a level head. Panic would have gotten us nowhere.

[restardom]

Spoken like a true leader!

[shieldofjustice]

Leader?

[restardom]

That's one sign of a good one.

[shieldofjustice]

It depends on the situation. It's a basic survival skill for soldiers on the battlefield.

[restardom]

Soldiers?

[shieldofjustice]

...Yeah. I'm... I'm a soldier.

[restardom]

How old are you??

[shieldofjustice]

...Eighteen.

[restardom]

Is that... still not young where you're from?
