Over the weeks Blue had gotten used to living 'under the sea'. She still wasn't wild about the idea and wanted to go back - to return to Cheza's side - but it didn't seem that was to be. As it was, though, Vatheon wasn't all that bad as far as the wolf dog was concerned. She could roam the city without fear in her dog form - no one seemed to take much notice of the big black dog exploring. Of course, it didn't hurt that Blue was sticking to the shadows.

Blue traveled alone here. It was odd to not have Old Man by her side or to not be running with a pack. She wondered what had become of Toboe - she hadn't seen him since her arrival. In spite of herself she worried about the pup - there were so few of them who felt loyalty to humans.

Curiously, she sniffed the air, trying to sift through them, searching for anything familiar. She was so engrossed in that task that she didn't notice anyone else around her.

Toboe liked to spend his days in the park, when he wasn't spending them asking Touma about human things, but today he wanted to check on Blue; he wanted to see what she thought of this strange human place where everything seemed so peaceful.

He decided to forgo the human illusion, figuring he probably wouldn't pull too much attention that way and put his nose to work. After a few minutes, he picked up her scent and followed it, hoping he'd come across her soon enough.

The familiar scent tickled her nose and her head snapped up. Much to her delight, she saw the familiar brown wolf approaching her and she bounded over to him.

"I've been wondering if you were still around, Toboe! Where have you been?"

Her words were not a rebuke or an accusation - they merely reflected her happiness and curiosity.

The younger wolf put his ears back a bit in an apology.

"Sorry, I really like exploring this place, although, I've been spending a lot of time in the park, lately! It's got real trees and grass and everything! What about you, Blue?"

Ion hadn't seen Blue since he first arrived in the city, so he was thrilled to see the large black wolf wandering around.

"Blue!" he called out, trotting towards her.

Her ears perked up at her name. The voice was familiar - ah, Ion! The only human here so far to know what she really was. Without thinking Blue transformed herself into her human form as he neared.

"Hello, Ion. How have you been?"

"Good, actually! How have you been?" He was panting slightly by the time he caught up to her. It's difficult for him to exert himself physically, but he's slowly getting better.

"Same! I'm still learning my way around here. This city is very large. Lots of smells to sift through." She noted the panting and canted her head slightly - as a dog would if it were confused. The physical expression may have appeared odd for a human.

He picked up on her curiousity even if the expression was strange. "What is it?" Ion mirrored her body language, looking quite silly as he did so.

"You look tired. Why?"

Blue was never one to mince words. She was a worker no matter what and had little patience for wasted words.

Oh, I just hurried a little to catch up to you. I'll have my breath back in a moment, I'm fine.

[He starts to reach out to reassure her, then recalls that the last time he did that her illusion dropped and she was VERY unhappy. His hand hangs there awkwardly for a moment before dropping to his side again.]

Ah. Gotcha.

[She notices the movement and a smile tugs at the corners of her mouth]

It's all right. You just startled me the first time and I was brand new to this place.

A-are you sure? I don't want to force you to drop your illusion...

[But he wants to pet her. He wants to pet her really, really bad!]

"Vuiii?" Hi Blue, have a furry brown thing bounding up to you with tail wagging. While the Eevee might look like it's a fox/dog thing, it's sounds are more chripish birdlike in nature.

Of course, there is also the scents of some humans on her - and a human is nearby, half scowling. It's hard to be nice when your pokemon just bounces off in the middle of a walk and greets things.

Blue jumps back, more than a little startled by the creature's enthusiasm. She looked around for the human that she knew to be nearby. After a moment or two she spied the human that she smelled on the hyper animal. The wolf dog gave the human a curious look, cocking her head to the side.

The Eevee just makes a 'play with me'sound, while the human twitches but says nothing. Damn-it, he's got to be nice to the thing to get it to evolve, but. It's hard. In the end, Silver just snorts and shoves his hands in pockets.

"Eeee."Play with me! The Eevee's going to be insistent. And really, don't pay attention to the grumpy human. He's a meanie butt who has Issues.

Blue tilted her head to the other side, studying the creature. "Play with you?" she replied, her tone confused. Yes, the idea of 'playing' was still something she had a hard time remembering how to do. It had been such a long time since she had given the concept much thought.

She looked up at the human again, wary of his presence. Was this a trap? Was this strange animal a mere distraction? Hmm. "Who is that human?" she inquired as she playfully bapped the Eevee on the head with her paw.

The Eevee nodded, rolling onto it's back at the playful bap.He's Master. He's grumpy, but nice. The little one sounds happy enough, at any rate. And is more than likely oblivious to the fact that Silver is glowering rather impatiently while he waits for the pokemon to stop playing with the dog.

The sight of a new wolf, even if it was wolf-dog, was intriguing to Amaterasu. Though she herself wasn't quite wolf, she couldn't help but feel a little kinship towards them. So when she spots the animal, she curiously stares for a bit, before lifting her head and howling.

Blue does a double-take when she saw the other animal. Was that a wolf? Could it be? The howl certainly indicated friendly intentions and so she responded in kind.

Pleased that she got a friendly go-ahead, Ammy lopes towards Blue, panting happily and tail swaying back and forth in a pleased wag. And, perhaps out of force of habit, she retrieves something from her storage space: a bag of meat.

She sets it in front of Blue, sitting down and waiting for her to eat it.

That got a curious head tilt from Blue. Where had that bag come from? Was it safe? Was it safe to let this strange wolf so close? Was she even really a wolf?

Cautiously, Blue sniffed at the bag, searching for an sign of danger. Meat was not something freely given where she was from. She was waiting for the catch or the attack. Still, the food smelled good and her stomach rumbled.

Finally, she snatched up the bag and spirited some distance away before halting. She studied the other for a moment before tearing into the bag and gulping down the meat within.

[Ammy sits put, tail wagging while she watches contently. She's just happy you're happy.]
