Sprye smiles. "I think so too... Maybe something happened. We should probably work to understand them more..." He seems the type to worry, but he seems heartened by this. "I'm glad it wasn't just stories. I mean, it couldn't have been... But you know, you start to question things. Especially when everyone else is questioning it..."
Starly doesn't seem to know what to do, pulling its neck in a little. Feathers bunch up. Bunnelby claps its big hands together. --Travelling is great!
Audino is just watching - and listening - to the Pokemon group talk with some interest, though he seems to be happy to sit with Sprye for now.

❂ Rebecca Cardinal Rebecca nodded. "I hope we do find out why they disappeared, so we can keep it from ever happening again ..." She paused, growing a little more solemn. "When I was in high school, the other kids used to love to tell me that Pokemon were never coming back, because they knew it upset me -- they knew I wanted Pokemon to return more than anything. But I get the last laugh, I guess."She did manage to smile at that, a bright grin. Galla tilted her head at Starly. C'mon, buddy, don't be shy. She understands Bunnelby's reaction a little better, and nods with a little chirp. Traveling is great! They've seen so many cool places and met so many cool Pokemon -- including current company. no one can stop me from spreading my wings

"That's mean," Sprye says plainly. He's not sure he believed, but to try to take that from someone else seemed wrong. "...My dad didn't really believe it. My mom though grew up on stories about them from her grandmother. She wanted to be a scientist like her. He blamed anything wrong about me on that she talks about these things - He doesn't think I'm serious enough. I think he's shocked about all this, now that it's happened..." He rubs one hand in the other, it's weird to say this stuff out loud. It doesn't sound the same as experiencing it. "--It's nothing serious. ...But still, I'm kind of trying to run away from home... Even if there's only so many places I could go, safely... I'm just being stupid." It feels a bit relieving to have said it. "--But it feels good to just explore. I guess I'm just not that serious." He gives her his own smile, maybe understated, but sincere. "I'm having a bit of fun, even if it's kind of terrifying. I don't really know how to be out here. But it's nice to meet people I wouldn't have, like you."
Starly doesn't know where to look, but twitters a kind of introduction. It's all happened very fast, and there are so many friends all of a sudden. He was focussed on fending for himself, mostly. Not this stuff.
Audino is looking at Sprye and Rebecca discussing. Perhaps the conversation has gone beyond what he can understand. There are many feelings. Neither seems quite relaxed - but it seems they are being brave about it. Audino reaches up and takes Sprye's hand, and swings it back and forth gently. Sprye seems warm, maybe nervous. Humans don't live in the woods, and yet they are so unsure about their safety. It's confusing.
Sprye lets Audino do this - perhaps it's getting bored. "--I thought, maybe, I could find something out about what happened. I'd like to help my mom out. I don't know what I'm even looking for though. But I thought I'd start small. I don't know what would be a clue... I barely know what's normal, anymore."

❂ Rebecca Cardinal Rebecca nodded, solemn. She wasn't good with people, exactly, or feelings, but she knew that Sprye had just told her something quite personal and serious, and she intended to treat that fact with the appropriate respect. "That's kind of mean of your father, too. Not to not believe -- I can understand that. But to call you not serious for believing ..."She was a little concerned when Sprye spoke about running away from home, but: "It's good to have Pokemon with you on the road -- I think it's a lot safer that way. And if you need any tips on camping or traveling, I've been doing it for a little while now; I'm no expert, but I can try to help."Though she wasn't confident in the quality of her advice, she still remembered how Arris had helped her get started, and would pay it forward if she could. "It is nice to meet new people," she added, smiling. Galla couldn't really relate to Starly's reaction; she'd spent most of her life in a Pokeball, and Rebecca had spoken to her through it for eight years before she'd actually come out. The world might be new to Galla, but she knew she could trust Rebecca. She chirped softly, encouraging Starly to share his worries -- maybe they could help. Rebecca smiled again as Audino approached, seeing that the little Pokemon sought to comfort its trainer. Pokemon really were beautiful creatures. "We're all kind of figuring out a new normal together right now. But it would be awesome to find some information about what happened. Hm, maybe the Lab could point you in the right direction?"no one can stop me from spreading my wings
