HALL OF ORIGIN. The Hall of Origin isn't without its accommodations - after all, humans do live here from time to time, with at least one of them a permanent resident, and even with Arceus' release it doesn't see fit to just make the place into the glass-paned OSHA violation that it normally seems to be. The building itself contains more or less anything you would need after an encounter like this one, whether you want to sleep or locate something to eat, or simply exist around the others for a while; the large hall you first entered into is likely the best for the latter, and you're welcome to gather there for as long as you need. ...Any food is going to be vegan as hell, however, because no one is sure what else you expected. Cyrus and all three Commanders are present for the time being, and amenable to being approached; granted, Cyrus is going to remain outside with Arceus like the asocial individual that he is. Meanwhile, Saturn and Mars in particular seem...it's difficult to say whether they seem "better" or not, but they don't seem acted upon by the Red Chain's influence anymore. (Which is likely a good thing, whether they consider it to be such or not.) There are plans to be made, of course, and things to be done; for now, however, feel free to enjoy the present moment. It's been well-earned. |

I understand that you don't want any of your partners to get hurt but are you really sure you want to entrust one to me? I'm sure there are some of your friends here who could look after them.
[It's not a no, however.]
no subject
I consider you a friend, you know.
[That probably doesn't answer the question.]
...But...well, I do intend to leave them with my friends if all else should fail. But... [...] Jupiter did mention that you were fond of the species. I suppose I wanted to ask you first, in the case of this little one.
no subject
It gets her to glance away, but she looks really pleased, okay. Camilla's words aren't helping with that any, but she does glance back after a moment.]
A Glameow? Or a Purugly?
[Her favorites...]
no subject
[...Camilla smiles a bit at that, though, chuckling.]
She's been a very sweet member of my team, ever since I've gotten her--she does so love to sleep, but she loves to make herself comfortable on one's lap and doze away on them.
no subject
[She'll hold out her hands at that, her expression soft.]
I promise I'll take good care of her, for as long as you need me to. I... I'm really honored that you'd trust me with her.
[It honestly means more to her than she can really express.]
no subject
[Camilla's honestly so happy, really, that Altena will have such a loving home--someone who will enjoy her company, is knowledgeable about her, and just has so much adoration for the species. It's so wonderful.
Camilla gives Mars the Poke Ball very easily, her own smile very warm.]
You're my friend, after all, and I do trust you with much. And I'll be certain to make good on my word and visit you both. That's a promise.
no subject
[...she might be too, but shhh.]
No matter what happens, I'll take very good care of her. Make sure you don't take too long!
no subject
Well, I wouldn't want to upset her--I'll certainly make sure that I make it to see the two of you as often as I can.
[Hell, she even raises her right hand into the air, the gesture firm and resolute.] I give you my word as a princess, that I will see you both as soon as I am able.
no subject
I know you will. And I know you'll be fine, wherever it is you end up going. I'll take good care of Altena while you're gone, so you won't have to worry about her, at least.
As for everything else? Well, I guess we'll sort things out eventually. But for now... I think everything will turn out okay.
[Conversations with Cyrus and the other commanders are going to be difficult for awhile, but she really does believe that things will work out somehow.]
...Thanks. For coming to talk to me today and leaving Altena with me, for talking me down before... There's a lot I should thank you for, really. You guys did some pretty amazing things here.
no subject
Keep that thought process; it's always good to keep an optimistic mind. And I sincerely hope that it will all work out for you.
[She chuckles a bit, though.]
It really is no trouble, you know? Perhaps it's a bit of a simple thing to say, but it was the right thing to do in such a circumstance. These people have taught me that, more than anything, and it really is worthwhile...that's what I think.
[...]
It's not the way I was taught; I will readily admit that. But I think I owe you a thanks for showing another way, as well.
[...It should really go without saying that one should. Probably solve their problems with a LITTLE less murder, but Listen.]
no subject
Heh, I don't think I really did all that much. You guys did a lot for us, and even though this outcome isn't what I expected... I can't say it's a bad thing.
[She might even be pretty pleased with it, though it's not really something she can readily admit yet.]
no subject
...I'm glad to hear that. I simply pray that going forward...this path will help all of you, and help you all find what you want out of the world.
Everyone deserves to find such a thing, after all.
[Even if it takes trial and error.]
