Vess shrugs. "Not really much of one to do non-productive things, so I don't really know. Normally I'd be out hunting for pokemon. So... I'm down for whatever you want to do, really."

“Oh.” Chaika says, before thinking for a moment. Her face lights up as she gets an idea. “I know! I still haven’t really hunted for Pokemon yet. The only ones I’ve caught have been through talking, not battling, but I really want to try! If anyone is going to teach me how to battle, I want it to be you! So, where should we go?”

"Probably out into the mountains a ways. You can find pokemon in the city any day." She begins to lead them along towards what she thought was one of the areas she had been venturing before, although she couldn't quite tell for certain. She tried to keep up a little small talk as they walked. "Have you seen an Absol before?" Encounter Roll: j8hOJWii1d100 Drain One AP for ReRoll: 1d100

“I mean, not in the wild. I’ve seen Audrey’s Absol a lot, and I know some other people have some too, but they’re all captured ones. I think they’re pretty rare, right?” Chaika explains as the two leave the campus to go out into the mountains. When Vess releases Solace, Chaika releases Aria, eager to follow all of Vess’ actions. After about a fifteen minute trek, the two round a corner, and spot a group of four meditites in a circle, all meditating. The group’s arrival doesn’t disturb them, and they keep on meditating despite Vess and Chaika. Upon seeing them, Chaika whispers to Vess, “So now what!?”All of the ledges count as Slow Terrain (Mountain), and the rocks are Rough Terrain (Mountain.)

Vess looks upon the small congregation of Meditite and shrugs. She'd feel bad disturbing them, but beyond that, she found their behavior interesting. "Respect them, for now. This is obviously important to them." She turns her head to look at Solace, who was hovering over the ground in the traditional Meditite pose herself. "Why don't you join them for a while? Maybe see if any of them are willing to fight with us when you're done? Although we can't take too long, we have to get back to class." Vess then sighs and sits on the rock ledge nearby, content to observe. She does glance to Chaika though, not wanting to bore her. "You know, we could always attempt to join them if you'd like. Could be interesting."

Chaika nods and joins Vess on the rock ledge. Solace, however, nods happily and walks over. The other Meditites welcome her into their circle and quickly get back to their meditation. After a few minutes over thinking it over, Chaika quietly responds, “I think that’d be really fun. Does that sound nice, Aria?”Aria nods and squeaks in agreement. The girls go over to the group of Meditites and Chaika softly speaks up. “Hello guys! I’ve never done this before, but me and my friends would really like to learn how to meditate! Could you help us out?”
Aria makes her own appeal to the Meditites, squeaking and gesturing similarly to her trainer. The Meditites smile and nod, rushing over to the group and taking their hands. They lead the three into the circle and have them sit down. The Meditites also take it upon themselves to fix the girl’s legs so they’re properly crossed. After that, the Meditites return to sitting themselves, and hold out their hands. The ones next to the girls eagerly await for them to join in the hand-holding. Aria and Chaika have raised the Meditites disposition to Very Friendly!

Vess finds herself pulled in with Chaika, but she doesn't do so without thought. As they're being pulled over, she pulls out her pokedex and sets and alarm on it for 20 minutes before their first class. That way, if something strange happened, they should have enough time to get to class. However, after that, Vess takes the wild meditites' hands in the circle and sits still, trying to clear her mind.

After taking the Meditites’ hands, both Vess, Chaika, and Aria begin to feel their eyes close. Vess feels her breathing sync up with everyone else’s, and then take shape in her mind. Two orbs, one green and one white, pulsate as the group breathes. Behind them, she sees swirling golden lights. Eventually, she hears her alarm go off, but she feels stuck in the meditation. Not in a bad way, but Vess feels content and fulfilled in her headspace, not wanting to stop it quite yet.

Unfortunately, Vess also has a nagging sense of responsibility, and it refuses to allow her to ignore her alarm. She wouldn't be who she was if she wasn't disciplined. Slowly, she opens her eyes and breaks away from the circle, going over to Chaika and lightly putting a hand on her shoulder. "Time for us to go, don't want to miss class. If you want to ask any of them if they want to come with you, now's your chance." Then, she'd whistle for Solace, (which they covered in this morning's training, of course) and give Chaika a little bit more time before looking to Solace to lead them back to campus.

Chaika, a bit startled and a bit tired, replies quietly, “Got it!”
While Vess whistles, the rest of the Meditites begin to rouse themselves as well. Chaika cradles her sleeping Buneary in her arms as she gets up, making sure she’s warm from the cold snow.
“Would any of you like to join me?” She whispers to the Meditites. They all raise their hands, much to her surprise.
“Um...I can’t take all of you…” After a bit of mumbling amongst themselves, they all put their hands down and shake their heads. “That’s alright too! It’s been really nice hanging out with you guys!”
As the girls head back to the campus, the Meditites walk with them, and upon getting to the school, they all stand outside the building as the girls go in. After a minute of looking out at them, it’s apparent they’re waiting there. Chaika suddenly then hurries back outside, talking to the group again.

Vess looks outside with a sigh. It appeared Chaika had made too strong of an impression. Vess walks outside as well, looking to Chaika with a raised eyebrow. "What's up?"

“Oh, they just want to keep hanging out with us, so I was explaining to them that they shouldn’t wait in front of the school for that. They’d get captured like that!” After a moment of thinking, she adds. “Maybe they could stay in our dorm instead!?”

Vess thinks for a moment, then shrugs. "I don't know what the policy is for wild pokemon, and someone will likely complain or try to catch them, but if they understand that risk, I don't really care. Just decide soon, we're already pushing being late for class as it is."

“Do you guys understand that?” Chaika asks, waiting a moment for the Meditites to reply. They all nod. “Alright!”
Chaika then turns to Vess, saying, “I don’t want you to be late because of me, so I’ll just go let them into our dorm and our room. If I have to stay late from detention or anything, just um, go tell them that it’s alright to hang out now.”
After that, she hurries off, Aria in her arms and the Meditites close behind her.

Vess sighs and runs after them, scooping up some of the slower meditite as she catches up with them in order to make the ordeal go faster. If Chaika was going to get detention, she wouldn't get it alone. This whole thing was an awful idea, though.

In five minutes, Chaika and Vess are able to get the Meditites settled down in their room and hurry back to the school.
“Thank you for helping, and um, I’m sorry if you get detention or something because of me. I’ll try and make it up to you later!” Chaika says, happily.

Vess steps outside into the main campus and sighs loudly. Silence, finally. She jogs back to the dorms and switching into clothes more appropriate for outdoor exploration. Then, she pops out of the dorm and releases Solace. "Try and keep track of where we're going, I have an awful sense of direction." Then, she picks a random direction away from the school and into the mountains, and sets a brisk pace. Encounter roll: 6vdvgxXv1d1001d100

When Vess goes into the dorm, she’s greeted by Adora. “Hey, Vess! Are you going out Pokemon hunting? Do you think I could come with? If it’s not too much trouble, after all. It’d be a good way to practice my nursing out in the field, and get Carina some battle experience!”

Vess blinks slight at Adora's sudden barrage of words, then shrugs when she finally reaches the end of it. "Sure, you can come along. I need to be back to meet with some people at 9, and I want to cover a lot ground before then, so keep up." Beyond that, everything proceeds as described in the previous post.

“Sorry, it’s just, I haven’t been able to really go out and explore yet…” She explains sheepishly.
As the two trek into the mountains, it isn’t long before they come across some Pokemon. They don’t notice Adora and Vess coming up behind, as they seem to be engrossed in an argument over something shiny. One is a Mankey, the other is a Smoochum, and the third is a small purple rodent. Adora silently looks over to Vess, waiting for her to make the first move. If you want to recognize the Rattata, make a Poke Edu check with a DC of five or use your Pokedex.
