Penny squinted as she walked about the strange ruins, her Sylveon a walking in front of her and sniffing at every stone and clump of moss it came across. 
It was quiet. Awfully quiet.
Aside from the chirping of bird pokemon and the occasional crumbling of a stone, Penny really could not find what people would find so interesting about something so... *Old.* 

Her Sylveon seemed very interested, however. Using its ribbons to tug Penny about like a child pulling on a parents shirt or sleeve.
*"Syl, vee! Sylvee!"* It chirped about nothing in particular, contrasting its trainers silence. Penny wasn't very fond of where she was, in complete honesty. Her fingers twitched and she glanced around nervously, she had come across this place on complete accident. She just wanted to take a short walk.

Mmm, scrumptious ruins~
You'd think the last place someone like Thiago would be were a bunch of strange ruins, but you'd be wrong! He had a habit of exploring ruins whenever possible! You never know if there's to be a rare pokemon or buried treasure within such a struture. He was excited, and so was Dorado, his Gholdengo!

Well, he came across it on coincidence- his Cyclizar needed a quick rest and he spotted the ruins while going about... So chance! So far in their exploration- Not really a lot, but he didn't want to turn up empty-handed. Fortunately, Dorado would spot something- A Sylveon! Dragging along a girl? Well, their curiosity was peaked.

Soon enough, the fast flowing of coins could be heard as the Gholdengo surfed on over towards the Sylveon and its trainer. The coin entity Pokemon was naturally one to make a friend first things first- But that excitably approach probably wasn't something for everyone. So, Thiago would quickly follow, making sure his star-clad cap didn't fall right off as he ran after the sliding mass of coins. "Dorado! Remember, we approach slowly! Don't wanna spook no one, yeah?" He figured the best approach was a reasonable pace, a friendly smile, and a suave attitude- A success towards making friends and getting more customers alike. In any case, before long, he would make his way towards Penny and Sylveon while Dorado just stared curiously.

Penny bent down on her knees when her Sylveon began to intensely sniff something, pushing around the dirt in curiosity... A gimmighoul coin? She didn't know those were arou-

"AH-" When Penny turned at the sound, a large beast seemed to appear out of thin air. A gholdengo, oh no- her Sylveon couldn't handle a pokemon like that! She'd have to waste her tera charge and-
Then, a trainer approached wearing a star emblemized cap. With how he spoke, this must be the pokemon's trainer. What a relief. 

"Oh, hi." Penny stood up, picking up the coin and waving awkwardly. Her sylveon, equally curious as the surfing pokemon, immediately bounded over with a distinct grace and began to sniff Dorado. "Uhm... Sorry for yelling. You spooked me."

Dorado stared at the coin for a moment, then towards Sylveon before greeting it with a good ol' sit down. A friendly vibe from the coin entity as it then offered it a coin.

"Ah- That's alright, amiga- Apologies for spooking you-" A friendly thing- Calling strangers friend. Probably not for everyone, but its better than harrassing folks into joining your group. "But guess Dorado must've sensed the coin, yeah?...In any case, I'm Thiago! Thiago Amador! What brings you around these ruins?"

Thiago would ask, adjusting his hat before doing a little Star salute mid-sentence. He figured to may as well. Even if she didn't know Team Star, he figured it was at least manners to show as such. But hey! Maybe she's from Paldea too! Then again, she seems around his age range, yet he's never seen her before, let alone in the academy. But hey, opportunity for a new friendship!

The sylveon, never able to give up and nice shiny, intertwined a ribbon around Dorado's offering and let out a happy little chitter. It picked up a smooth looking rock off the ground with another feeler and offered it to the other pokemon.

"Uhm." Penny was a little overwhelmed already, seeing the Team Star salute made her feel a little more comfortable, though. "My name is Penny. I was just letting Sylph take me around as she pleased." Out of almost impulse, she did the salute back ~~even if much smaller and weaker.~~ Ever since the whole... *Starfall* Thing happened, it almost made her feel more comfortable around those once apart of the group. Deep down, they knew it was a little weird. But weird is perfectly alright.
