Yes! (Fang leaps, victoriously, into view of her Poké-Gear and scoops up a confused looking Zigzagoon. Her Purrloin is hanging back, tail twitching with mild curiosity.

That curiosity doesn't last long. Soon, she is licking her paw and rubbing over her left ear, one eye closed. What? She knows she's cute.)

Dia, check 'im out! What should we call him? (The Zigzagoon is on his back in Fang's arms, eyes bright.) He kinda reminds me of someone...

Hey, Vanille! Help me find a name! You too, Light! Weigh in! This is important.

Action!

[baremyfangs]

(But he's adorable! And he steals things!)

That's boring. Come on, you can do better than that.

... Why not something like Scrappy?

[It's all she can come up with that isn't insulting.]

[baremyfangs]

You're not even tryin', Sunshine. (Full pouting.)

[bylight]

[She sighs, putting her hands on her hips and really looking at the Zigzagoon.]

... Maqui?

[baremyfangs]

What the heck does that mean?

[bylight]

It's the name of someone who was part of NORA back home. One of Snow and Serah's friends. He reminds me of him.

[baremyfangs]

He must've been a cutie then. (She's biased to all Pokémon thieves.)

[bylight]

He was a kid, but a good mechanic. Never understood why he got together with those other trouble makers.

[baremyfangs]

He was a kid. (Explanation enough.) Kids do crazy things.

[bylight]

Getting involved with an armed group of hooligans in order to cause me to have a harder job doing my job is more than crazy.

[baremyfangs]

I don't think he was considering your feelings, Sunshine.

[bylight]

No. He could have considered the feelings of everyone in Bohdum, just like the rest of them. No Obligations, Rules, or Authority. Yeah right.
