Rei rolls her eyes and pokes Holly a few times in the side
"Thats- No- Help!"
If that gets a reaction out of her, Rei gets an idea. She gives Holly a funny look.
"Listen Holly. I know you want to do something with me. You tell me it or I'm going to get you."
Rei gives a chesire-like grin.

Holly seems confused more than anything. "Huh? No, really, I wouldn't know what to do. That's why I'm asking."

"Uh huh. Sure."
Rei's not quite sure to believe her. Holly has shown today she has a bit of a bold side, and Rei is determined to see it. Rei gets on her knees and creeps over in front of Holly. Rei extends her hands out in front of her, wiggling her fingers.
"Well if you don't have anything, then I guess I have to get you."

Holly's brow furrows at Rei's antics. "Erm... Rei? Are you okay? You're acting strange."

Rei tilts her head and gives a big smile. But something mischevious is clearly on her face.
"I am?"
She creeps a little closer.
"But isn't affection... romance... love... isn't it all strange? Make us do crazy things..."
Rei is just a little closer now.
"...Like this!"
She lunges her hands forward and starts tickling Holly. She takes frequent pauses so it's not one continuous stream of tickle-torture. Rei's not a monster, after all.
"I told you I'd get you, Holly!"

"Bwah!" Holly shrieks as Rei tackles her and begins tickling. This ends up throwing the poor, sleepy plant-ghosts from her lap, which results in Rei being counter-tickled by annoyed ghosts!

"Ah wait! That's not fair! This is between me and Holly! I gotta get her, she didn't come up with anything!"
Rei tries to keep ticking and ignore the ghosts but it becomes quickly impossible and she throws her hands up giggling.
"I surrender!"
Most of Rei's pokemon look on like 'You did this to yourself Rei'. Save for Kopi, who's too busy laughing in the tree.

Satisfied that Rei has learned her lesson, the ghosts relent. Holly takes the time to catch her breath.

Once the ghosts back off, Rei is still for a moment, before lunging again, but grabs Holly and rolls over so that Holly is on top, covering Rei from the wrath of Holly's pokemon!
"Ah ha!"
Rei then begins tickling once more!

"Ahhh!" Holly yells. Seeing an opportunity to rejoin the fun, the sneaky ghosts phase into the ground trying to reach Rei from beneath. Alas, their plan does not work so well. They aren't quite strong enough to be partially spectral and partially solid at the same time. Oh, but what's this? Vines snake their way beneath Holly to get at Rei!
Kopi, meanwhile, has had to stop laughing just to catch his breath in order to laugh harder!

Rei is giggling that her plan seems to be working until a strange feeling seems to be tickling her!
"Eeep!"
She looks down and sees the vines tickling her.
"I guess I'm never safe, then!"
Rei just lays her arms out on the blanket with the lovely Holly on top of her.
"Ok I'm really done this time. I guess I'll never get that answer, then."

"What were you really expecting me to say, Rei? I don't know what people in relationships do for fun."

Rei comes down from the giggle-fest and looks and gives a warm smile to Holly. She wraps her arms around her in an embrace, enjoying the position that she ended up in.
"Well it didn't have to be a relationship thing. Just something you wanted to do! I know you said you were just happy just spending time with me but... Well I'm stressing out that if I always pick things I'll be 'in control' of this whole thing and... That's not fair to you."

Holly rolls off to Rei's side and looks back at her. "I don't mind. I'm bad at coming up with ideas for things."

Rei pouts a little bit when Holly rolls off. (It's getting chilly out here, she was keeping her warm!) But she nods in understanding.
"Alright. Alright. I'll try to suppress that side of me. If you want to do something though, just let me know ok?"
Rei turns on her side and puts a hand on Holly's hip.
"So... from when I looked earlier and from when the medics told me... I think tomorrow might be my last day for recovery. So after that I'm free to go to rock tunnel with the Steel Branch. If... if that's ok with you?"

"Why wouldn't it be okay with me? I was there when your Branch Leader invited you on this journey, and it sounds important. Of course I'm okay with it, Rei."

"Uh yeah. I know you worry, so I'm just double checking."
Rei scoots a bit closer. She moves her hand to Holly's and holds it.
"And well... she asked me before... 'us'... So I thought that might have changed things."

Holly shakes her head. "I only worry when you try to do stupid things. When you're not thinking straight. With this, you'll be with not only your Branch Leader, but another Branch Member as well, if I recall. I'm sure they'll keep you from getting seriously injured. Especially so soon after you recovered from the last one." She squeezes Rei's hand.

Rei looks down when 'stupid things' is brought up. As for the rest of it, Holly is right. She'll be with Miss Shields and Maya. She'll be safe. She still looks down, though. She squeezes Holly's hand more.
"I am really sorry for that outburst when I did. I... wasn't in the best place at the time."

"Rei. It's fine. It's all in the past now. We've all moved past it." Holly leans on Rei.
