"That is rather true," Victor said, glad to hear Ran speaking more in a natural way. "It'd be a shame to be hired by a professor that didn't know how to take care of Pokegirls. It'd be kind of an insult, wouldn't you say?"<br/><br/>Victor let out a small laugh after his question, hoping that Ran would find humor in his words. After his short laugh, he then put the slip of paper that contained the message in his pocket, and as he did, he felt the small heat pack that the ranch hand had given him just before he left. He was told that it would help him raise Ran, mostly in Taming. It was something that Victor thought would be valuable, as he knew that Ran would have a very low drive, and would need something to help her get going for proper Tamings.<br/><br/>Considering briefly on using it then and there, Victor quickly threw the idea away, figuring that it was not quite the time to do so. Instead, he took his hand out of his pocket and then stretched both arms up high and folded them behind his head, letting out a slight grunt as he did so. The act was to consciously keep his hands away from his sword, as before he got Ran, he loved to fiddle with it while he had nothing to do. However, he knew that such an act would cause suspicion and fear in Ran's mind, as it would be logical to believe that he would soon use it.
