Having calmed down a bit from the initial shock of having a tea pot smashed in her face, Raven had remembered why she went to the kitchen in the first place. That being that she was hungry. She poked her head in, making sure that not of the people from earlier were still around. No one. Good. Just some curly haired guy who she recognized, but was completely willing to ignore if he didn't bother her.
Raven walked into the kitchen, and started to dig through a cupboard, finding some crackers to snack on, and a soda in the fridge. She sat down across from the person she recognized as Bede from Galar and just shrugged.

**His eyes darted for a moment to the person that just appeared in his vision, a glint of recognition shooting through them. Just as she knew, who he was, he knew who she was, his mentor's description of her in the stories she told him were rather accurate. The amusement he felt when she just shrugged and sat down in front of him could be seen in his smile, as like her, he didn't say a word and simply continued drinking his tea.**

***Well now... I didn't think I would meet my grandmother's old friend here... What a coincidence... But from Opal's tales.. I should probably leave her alone for now, no need to possibly anger or annoy someone of her calibre..***
Melvin
**Now, I'll give you some warning. Phoebe? She's a nice girl. She's learned how to behave in a modern society, despite having grown up on an island where technology wasn't really a thing. She's adapted, and rather quickly at that. However, there were two things stopping her from acting like... Well, like everyone else right now. The first of which was her absolute refusal to grow out of her traditions. She refused to wear footwear, not seeing a point in it. The same old clothes. "Go to the beach," Some people would say. And Phoebe wouldn't have a clue why.**

**The second factor as of right now was her hunger level. She had been ravenous throughout the entire plane flight here, and she didn't wanna waste any money on mediocre airplane snacks. So here she was, in the kitchen, walking in without a care in the world.** "Hiiiii! Is there any food here? I'm super hungry. Also, nice to meet you guys!" **She's definitely optimistic, that's for sure.**
Kenna
She'd heard the Bede replaced Opal, similarly to how Raven herself was replaced by that annoying child. She frowned. Shame. Perhaps Opal really did give up her job. She was older than any other gym leader to be sure.
"Hello," She said, a bit absent minded. 

Who. Was this girl? Raven looked at her, a little confused, and very annoyed when she she started to squeal. She raised an eyebrow, looking at Phoebe.
"Yes... There tends to be food in kitchens..."
Heather
**Bede had to admit- that girl almost scared him, if only because he was so focused on his tea and the person in front of him. Taking a few seconds to calm down internally, he turned his gaze to the flowery girl standing smack-dab in the middle of the room.**
Well... Like the lady across me mentioned, there is food here, look in that refrigerator behind you, there you should find everything you need. **He simply nodded his head in the direction of the refrigerator, before his gaze wandered to his tea pot.** Though... If you would like some black tea too, then feel free to get yourself a cup and pour yourself some in... Anyhow, it's nice to meet you too. **Feeling his Hatterene's ball shake quietly because of the clashing emotions presented in the room, he let out an amused smile and a small chuckle. *I figured that this would happen... Though not so soon.. Oh well I hope you won't punch anyone my friend..~* He thought.**
Melvin
**Said flowery girl looked between the two with a confused smile.** "...What's a kitchen?" **She asked, tilting her head. She was genuinely curious. Now, mind you, she did learn everything she needed to know to survive in modern society, yes, but even after she moved to Hoenn's mainland, she did her cooking outside, over a fire.** "Oh, whatever. Thanks!" **She headed over to the fridge, opened it up, and wondered what all was in there.** "Hmmm..."
Kenna
Raven shook her head, sighing. How did this girl NOT know what a kitchen was? She looked like she didn't know a lot of things though, but that was just Raven's interpretation of her.
"A Kitchen is the place where you eat food. It's a whole room of a house dedicated to it." She stood, peeking over the girl's shoulder as she rifled through the different foods.
"How about that?" She said, pointing at some microwave lunches. "That should be edible." She pulled one out, deciding that while she was here, she might as well have an actual meal.
"By the way. You may call me Raven. I'm an elite four from a region called Magveil. Who are you?"
Heather
**Glancing over to the duo, he sighed and rolled his eyes before commenting just in case.** I would suggest first looking at the expiration date on that thing, because I for one am not too sure how often things get replaced or checked over in this turbulent place. **Picking up his cup to take another sip, he then realized something.** Come to think of it... I haven't really seen much staff around ever since I arrived.. How troublesome. **Still holding his cup, he glanced at the girl who seemed to know not that much.** My name is Bede by the way, fairy type gym leader of Galar. **He then finally turned his attention to his tea again and took a well deserved sip from it.**
Melvin
"I have no idea what that means! I always prepare food on the spot, over a fire. Much better, with the char marks and stuff." **She nabbed a microwaveable lunch and checked the date; thankfully, it was newly purchased. She followed the instructions and popped it in the microwave.** "My name's Phoebe! I'm one of the Elite Four in Hoenn. I specialize in Ghost-type Pokémon!"
Kenna
"Aah," She nodded at Bede's comment before checking the date on her own lunch. Yup, just bought. "You bring up a good point however. How does such a place exist, yet we see no sign of the ones running it?" She shrugged, throwing her lunch into another microwave and waiting for it to cook. As she did, she tapped her nails on the countertop and watched as Phoebe figured out how to microwave food instead of throwing it over a fire.
"Huh, are you now?" She affirmed. She nodded slowly, smiling a bit. "I can respect that. I'm a ghost trainer as well. But unlike you, I moved regions. I'm from Galar, just like him. And I was also its first and one of only two ghost gym leaders."

She looked over at Bede, still drinking tea. "You planning to drink a whole pot?" She asked. "Opal's really rubbed off on you, hasn't she?
Heather
**Blushing a bit, he scratched his cheek in embarrassment and set down his cup.** "Well I could try to deny such a thing... But that would be a plain out lie." **A fond smile forming on his lips as he remembered his mentor's unusual training methods** "The first thing she did when she brought me in was teaching me manners and make me appreciate tea. Soon I could see why, after every training lesson, she and I would have to have tea time to discuss my mistakes and what to improve. So yes, tea has become my main drink... Though.." **Looking down at the cup, he sighs and shakes his head softly** "..Sadly I don't have any of her special tea blend with me, now that would be something that I could drink in pots." 

**Tapping his cheek now, as he remembered the point she made before that.** "As for how... Hm perhaps they only come out at night when everybody is sleeping? Or very early in the morning? Either way.. Eventually an answer to that mystery will surely pop up." **Then a small glint of mischief flashed across his eyes** "...Unless it's the house fairies, sadly nobody but fairy type trainers will find out then, but oh well I don't think anybody will mind that~ Right, fairies?" **He then very very discretely used the small metal plates on the back of his shoes, to very gently click them together, to emulate the sound of some of the metal utensils such as pots, pans or cutlery clicking together, to create the illusion of there being something there that agreed with him.**

**Why did he do it? He of course had to hold up the tradition of being mystical from the "Wizard" Opal~ who taught him many tricks and other things to seem more mystical and bring awe and perhaps even fear to those with him... Basically Opal was a bit of a prankster and she made sure to pass that onto Bede.**
Melvin
**Phoebe, however, was not so convinced. She knew there was a sound, but she didn't think it had anything to do with fairies... Or Bede.** "Or ghosts. Y'know, you'd think they're all sad and stuff because their friends can't see 'em, but they're fun! They like to tell me jokes. My grandma likes to crack me up a lot!" **She responded, as if these things were totally normal.**
Kenna
Raven chuckled a bit with Bede's comment about fairies in the kitchen. Hearing the clinking of silverware, she guessed it was one of Opal's tricks, picked up by Bede of course. Her old friend had many ways of seeming almost mystical, the methods of which Raven didn't quite know. It was her gimmick, so to speak. All the Galar gym leaders had one. Piers was a singer, Raihan was a social media star, and back in her time, the Dragon gym leader had this while knight in shining armor thing going on. Raven herself had her difficulty to defete. As well as having more of a duel typing than most at her level.

So yes, she was good at spotting things.But trick or not, she bought into it anyways. Who knows, maybe it was a fairy. "Hmm..." She said, looking around. "Well would you look at that!"

"You know what Phoebe, is it? It very well might be ghosts. The little buggers. They really can be anywhere sometimes." She shrugged, crossing her arms. "I won't know, so you'll have to tell me if they say something funny."
Unlike some, Raven couldn't actually talk to ghosts, or see them all the time, or anything like that. She didn't get negativlt effected by them, but she and her pokemon didn't have what you'd call a close connection either.

Hearing a beep, Raven pulled her lunch out of the microwave, mumbling that it was hot as she dragged it over to the table. She sat down and opened it, adding, "If the fairies or ghosts *Are* Out there. I wish one of them would warn me that my hot water was broken." Raven chuckled, remembering the nightmare that was her cold shower that morning.
Heather
**Glad that both were not trying to deny things or figure out where the sounds are coming from, he let out a light titter and shrugged** Well, from what I can tell, neither of the groups are the most talkative... So perhaps they just decided to alert the staff instead in some fashion? **Yes, if he found any of the staff or even better the staff room, he would anonymously tell them about Raven's problem, further adding to the illusion~ internally scheming, Bede's lips tugged up even more at those impish thoughts.** 
Anyhow, I hope it will be fixed soon, unexpected cold showers are never nice. **Glancing curiously at Phoebe tapped his chin.** By the way Phoebe... Since you can see ghosts... Have you seen any ever since you arrived at this island? Perhaps around the mansion anywhere? Because in all honesty... Someone this rich usually has had some skeletons in their closet at some point, hopefully only figuratively in this case. **Picking up his drink again, he refilled his cup and drank more of the wonderful liquid he has come to love** Wouldn't surprise me, if someone didn't get killed anywhere around here.
Melvin
"Ghosts are anything but quiet." **Phoebe said with a smile, letting her food cool in the microwave for a bit, after it had finished cooking.** "But nope! I haven't met anyone beyond the mortal realm yet. But if I do, I'll certainly let you know what they say! Most of the spirits I've met are from Mt. Pyre, but that's probably 'cause that's where most of 'em are buried."
