[ Jill acts like she didn't hear that, but her eyes turn away from the screen for a moment. There was a lot to talk about, but she'd like to think he's known for a long time. Their friendship was something else, not just partners or co-workers or family; something deeper, more visceral. The kind of thing most people shy away from when it really comes down to the important decisions. But what they had was something that should've been addressed ages ago.

Even if part of her still can't help but feel that maybe she's looking too much into it and seeing things only from her side. That maybe their partnership is an inconvenience at times. ]

Ha, same difference, right? Either way, that's not acceptable. [ She wasn't sure what to compare hers or his to, not quite. But it's the best she can do for his. Though she's generally quite warm toward any pokemon that she may come upon, the Stufful's behavior leaves a lot to be desired. Dislike or not getting along is one thing, hurting him is another. ] Just check out any bigger trees you see. You should find some pretty easily.

[ Maybe less. If it'll take her five days, four if she really pushes it... maybe they'll meet around three? She hopes it's sooner, though. Now that he's here, she'd like to see him. ]

Well, you can always get a hold of me on this thing. I'll probably set off after we finish breakfast and I get a hold of someone real quick about this change of plans. [ Jill pauses, trying to consider what he might have to look out for. ] Nothing in particular, really. Dark Cave's a pain but you'll be fine.
