Susan was eying the other women in the room a bit now that she had some food in front of her and others had picked up the conversation. It wasn't hard to gather that she was looking at how well their kimono's or robes or whatever you called them sat on their frames. Susan's was both too big, and clearly covering her normal clothes. This was probably a good thing considering how much physical labor she had participated in but still... The young woman couldn't help but look at the others. She sighed, dropping a piece of meat under the table for Sparky, who had settled at her feet where he normally ate and happily devoured what she slipped down there for him.<br/><br/>The other trainers all had their reasons for being here. She had expected this, but it was still odd hearing from them. She had been going it with only Sparky and Stumpy till now. Now that she had company, it seemed only natural for the villagers to lump her in with them, and she wondered if she'd end up leaving with them too. Susan wished Elenya had sat near her. She hadn't talked to the others. It seemed with all that was going on, the girl had forgotten her offer to Susan. It didn't bother her overly much but it would have been preferable to the older village men. Thankfully they had someone else to eye in the room.<br/><br/>Stumpy had drifted over to Aiko, and was currently circling over the womans head. Her excitement at seeing pokemon had apparently gotten the ghost pokemon's attention and he was curious now. Susan inwardly prayed the pokemon, a natural born trickster, wouldn't cause any trouble. But then he slipped down past the girl and into the earth and Susan suddenly felt her stomach drop. What was he going to do? Before Susan could warn someone, the Ghost pokemon slipped out from the wall behind Aiko and reached for the ribbon around her waist, holding the loose fitting Kimono together. Then just like that, he slipped away again, making it vanish.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
