[ Dahlia prances in front of the screen, standing on the beach. She was wearing a little sundress, twirling lightly to show it off. She smiles and waves both front paws at the screen. They were in Sevii!! Wasn't it pretty? This place was amazing and she was glad she got to be one of the first Pokemon to see it out of Ignis's group. ]

Sevii is so nice! It's warm here and the ocean is so pretty. It's the same ocean as Olivine but it seems different too! I don't know how long we're staying. It's nice though.

[She toddles closer and sits down in front of the rock the gear was balanced on, patting her little dress out and adjusting her glasses. ]

There's lots of different looking Pokemon. We're not looking for anything in particular but I think we should bring someone back! Maybe--

RAWK.

[ Dahlia puts her hands over her ears, turning to glare to the side.]

Definitely not YOU.

[ The Chatot tilts its head, before walking over into the frame. It tilts and swoops its head back and forth, then bobs it. ]

Skit. Skitty. Skitty skitty skitty.

Be quiet! Anyway, I miss everyone in Olivine and Puff, I lo--

RAWKITTY SKITTY SKITTY.

Dahlia. I'm trying to read...

B-but it's not--!!

Au au au~!!!

[It's not Newt that responds but Queenie the Audino and Episkey the Chansey. The former has her paws pressed to her cheeks as she twills in delight while the latter bobs about happily.]

Your dress is so pretty!

Very very pretty. Is a good color, yes!

[ Dahlia was quick to stand up again and give a happy twirl. She knew she didn't have to wear clothes but she'd become fond of dresses after the contest. ]

Thank you!! I picked it out my--

AU. AU.

--self!!

[ Her little hand shoves the Chatot down into the sand, and its wings sent sand flying. ]

[Queenie let out a happy giggle at their antics as Episkey let's out a snort.]

Birb very annoying, yes?

Oh they just clearly want to have some fun, that's all! You did a very nice job picking out that dress though, miss!

VERY annoying! I don't know why it decided to come over and bother us!

[ The Chatot frees itself, walking away for a bit to fluff out its feathers and preen.

Dahlia blushes, fixing her glasses gently. ]

Thank you again. I wanted to look nice while we were on the islands! I've never been to a place like this before and neither has my trainer really, sort of...

Birbs pester and annoy. We have many and they do same. All day long! Noise noise noise!

[The Chansey clucked in annoyance which just seemed to make Queenie giggle even more, try as she might not to.]

You have to make sure to enjoy it then! And make sure your trainer does as well!

Rigatoni and Ravioli are quiet! Well, except when Rigatoni is cheering Ravioli on doing.. whatever thing he's doing at the time.

[ The Pidgeot was always showing off something and the Talonflame was always ready with praise. There was something going on there, she thought... ]

I know I will and I'll try to help my trainer! He's been really quiet, quieter than normal! Fleuret says it's his fault but won't tell me why. I could use Psychic and find out but that's rude isn't it?

[ The horrors of being polite. ]

[Episkey just scoffed, crossing her little arms.]

Birbs are birbs and always annoy.

[She has yet to meet a bird she actually likes. They make such a mess of the house!

Queenie just shakes her head with a fond smile before it fades a bit into a worried sort of look.]

I suppose that's true but maybe your trainer could use the help, sweetie.

[ Well, Dahlia couldn't really argue with that. Even on their best days Ravioli and Rigatoni could be a bit... much. She wished someone would hit Rigatoni in the head with a Pokeball already so he wasn't hanging out all the time! ]

Maybe... I just know he would be very angry. He doesn't share a lot with us that's overly.. ... personal.

[ She looks to the side, off screen to where Ignis was. ]

Do trainers normally share things with their Pokemon?

[Chibi, the Eevee he received from Ash about a month ago, had learned how to use the gear pretty early and the boisterous furball just had to respond to Dahlia's video.]

Are you sure you don't wanna bring that one home? It sounds like fun! I wonder what we can teach it. Definitely have to let it hang out with Ash, it'll pick up some neat stuff fo -

[Pryna hears Chibi's trilling laughter and huffs at him before playfully pushing him out of the way. No need to add to Dahlia's irritation.]

Oh you look so lovely! I'm glad you're having fun and we miss you too!!

[The older Eevee looks off to the side and flicks her tail, apparently trying to keep Chibi away as he attempts sneaking closer to the gear chirping and trying to teach the Chatot another word.]

Eevee. E E V E E Eevee Eevee!!

Chibi, no! That's not nice!

I'm sure, I'm definitely, DEFINITELY sure that-- Pryna!!

[ Oh thank goodness, the sane Eevee who understands how annoying this bird was. It was going to get her in trouble at this rate. ]

Thank you!! We're just spending time on the first island, but then we're going to start traveling and--Chibi!!

[ The parrot's head turns, eyes squinting. It puffs its chest up, strutting back and forth. ]

Eeeeee. VEEEE. Eevee!!

Oh this is awesome! I'm gonna go get Fulgur and Snowball!

[Chibi darts off, hoping to bring some of the others to teach this funny parrot more sounds.]

Don't worry, Dahlia. Gladio is intervening. [The Houndour had taken a role similar to Eevees, but where she was warmth and comfort he was ... lukewarm and serious. Gladio would probably just stare Chibi into submission, though he'd learned how to play a little thanks to Porkchop so he could very well just keep the mischievous Eevee occupied.]

I can't wait to see all your pictures! Have fun and be safe, okay? We really do miss you a lot.

[ Dahlia was clutching the Chatot's beak shut now, glancing fearfully to the side because Igins was just off camera and he was going to get angry if this bird kept it up. ]

Thank goodness. Ignis is trying to relax and this bird... I miss you all too! I'll be back for a little while when Oleander comes out here so we can catch u--
