Rank 2 [Voice/Action for Goldenrod]

[sunshine_fruit]

 Hey, Rise.

Thanks for lending me that one item. It really helped a lot. I made it safely, as you can see.

So, this is Goldenrod, huh? It's a bit bigger than I was expecting, especially since the last three towns were so small. Anyone want to tell me what exactly there is to do around here?

I head there's a Breeding Centre somewhere that's worth a

[ Rise's not present at first, but in a few more minutes, she's stepping in with a Clefairy clinging to her. ]

I know, I know, I'm sorry I took so l-- heeeeey, Yumi-senpai! I was just about to call you!

[ but when both hands are occupied, it's a little hard. ]

[Don't mind Yumi, she and her Smoochum are just looking at the place while they wait for Souji to arrive. If he ever does.]

Hehe. It's fine. Looks like you're working hard, Rise-chan.

[And don't mind Yumi as she uses her Pokedex on the Clefairy. That's a new one to her.]

[action]

[restardom]

Not yet! [ and she grins, settling the Clefairy on her hip. ] Tira won't let me.

[action]

[sunshine_fruit]

So...that isn't part of the job?

[Helga the Smoochum is going to curiously move closer to Rise, staring up at her with big eyes.]

[action]

[restardom]

Well, looking after the Pokémon counts, but this one's mine. [ time to blink down at Helga. ] ... Hi there!

[action]

[sunshine_fruit]

W-wait, don't...

[Smoochum's eyes just glaze over before she lets out a weak "Um um!" and licks Rise's leg. Yumi is quick to pick up her Smoochum, but it's too late.]

I'm sorry! I should have seen that coming!

[action]

[restardom]

...

[ ... well, that's inconvenient. ] Um, w-what--

[sunshine_fruit]

I'm so, so sorry. She really likes doing that for some reason...

Helga, just...go back in for a while, okay? [And that just prompts Helga to hide behind Rise while Yumi brings out her ball.]

[restardom]

... I-it's okay, I've seen weirder...

[sunshine_fruit]

R-right...Helga, come on.

[The Smoochum refuses to move from behind Rise's legs, but Yumi solves that problem by just walking around and returning her from a different angle.]

She never really listens to me. Um...is there any way I can make it up to you?

[restardom]

Seriously, don't worry about it! It's a little gross, but...

[sunshine_fruit]

If you say so...here, let me just...

[Yumi drops to one knee and starts digging through her bag. She still has those towels from when she started, so she offers one to Rise.]

[restardom]

T-thanks. [ and accepting that to towel off her leg. ] This sure brings back memories...

[sunshine_fruit]

It...does? [Blinkblink.] Of what?

[restardom]

... When Himiko evolved and drooled all over me...
