"By liquid fortification, I take it you mean coffee?" Spectra smiled, pulling the little masin jar of beans from her backpack.  She also took the tea towel.  "Luckily it hasn't really boiled yet.  There's kind of a neat little trick with this pot-" She tentatively flipped the little top on the pitcher and dumped a few shakes of beans in.  "There's a mesh in the top to filter out the beans... mostly.  It'll be a little thicker, but it'll taste like- well chocolatey coffee."  She flipped the top back down and re-settled it on the stand in the fire.<br/><br/>"My facination is ghost pokemon.  I only have one, and that happened much by accident really.  I didn't have a starter because I chose to start later.  I wanted a beter understanding of why pokemon do the things they do as in conjunction with trainers and visa versa.  I guess the psychology behind it intregued me.  But now that I've been at it a while, there really doesn't seem to be a universal reason for trainers to battle, or at least the ones who stick with it for more than a month."<br/><br/>At this, Ginger took the pause to re-appear and again, cast a kind of scanning glance over the people and pokemon around the fire.  Her eyes rested on Petra, then Thomas and round like that.  Satisfied, she turned back to her trainer and let out a kind of freakish mechanical laughter, fading back into the shadows until the glow of her eyes and gems was no longer visible.<br/><br/>"I guess she approves." Spectra shrugged, watching the expressions of the other visitors and casting her gaze again at the pot of mocha in the fire.
