Mami blinked and then hurried to catch up with the older teens. Well, Mami didn't know if they actually were older, but she did feel a bit like a third wheel at times. As if she was getting in the middle of something... She wasn't sure if she really should travel with these two... but she liked hanging around Arietta, and she owed the girl for saving her life. Mami wanted to pay her back... somehow.
Tom snorted in annoyance when the human's all but ignored his generous offer. See if he tried to be nice again! As Mami caught up with the other two, she blinked in confusion. She didn't really have a clue as to what they were talking about. Mami made friends with Pokémon pretty easily, so she didn't like to see them fight. She shook her head, "Um, what does that mean? ... I don't know much about battling," she said feeling a bit embarrassed, but hoped that the other two wouldn't tease her for her ignorance.

Colt smiled. "Don't worry about it, battling's not for everybody." He put hands behind his head, arms stretched out. "Lightning rod is an ability that attracts and nullifies electric type moves. It can be very useful when fighting electric types." Colt looked at Mami. She seemed a little left out, obviously not well versed in all this battle talk. "Pokemon aren't just for battling, though. There are many practical uses for the abilities pokemon have." e looked down at his two pokemon. Lilith seemed to be talking to Lucifer, while Lucifer didn't seem like he was paying much attention. "They also make great travel companions as well." After a short while they set foot in Mauville again. "Well, time to get started."

Arietta whispers to Mami, "It's okay, I only know the basics about battling, and facts about pokemon Gurkinn and I studied and worked with when we were studying mega stones." She paused, wondering if Mami even knew what those were, but decided to leave it for later, "Lets go try and beat a gym leader." Arietta smiles, and returns Wilbur and Scim to their pokeballs. Theo and Moraya bounce a bit, excited, and Jeeves just keeps walking with a blank face. They begin towards the gym. "Colt, besides the gym being electric type, do you know anything else about it?"

Mami had heard of Mega evolution, of course, but didn't know how it was done, or which pokemon were capable of it or not. She was pretty sure that Nina and the others weren't going to do that... besides she was pretty sure that you had to own a pokemon a long time before they could mega evolve. Tom and Bob were techinically wild, so she guessed that they didn't count on that regard.
Mami didn't know much about the gym leaders in Hoenn... heck, she barely knew anything about the gym leaders in Kalos, so she couldn't be much help here, it seemed. "I'll be cheering for you the whole time, Arietta... you too, Colt," she said, smiling, as they reached the edge of town. Tom went off to where ever it was he went when he didn't want to go to town, leaving the humans to their own task: challenging a gym.

Colt paused for a second, searching his memory for information. "The gym leaders name is Wattson. He is supposed to be a very jovial and cheerful man. If I'm remembering correctly, since you don't have any badges he should use a magneton, voltorb, and Manectric. Not his main Manectric though. From what i can tell he will probably use a lot of special attacks, so remember that when deciding which pokemon to use." As they reached the front of the gym, Colt faced Arietta. "When You're ready."

Arietta pauses at that, manectric, the evolution of electric. She hadn't heard Wattson's name before, so that means he probably didn't have a megastone or megaring. She looks at Moraya, and remembered that sylveons were notorious for their ability to withstand most everything but physical attacks for a long duration. Plus, a magneton was part steel type, which she was weak to. Maybe she could risk Scim, since he knew sacred sword. She shrugs and walks in. "Hello, is Mr. Wattson here?" She asks, not sure how to approach this. It's not like she knew how to do any of this.

(Coj you can keep going. Just have Mami following along. She's not going to be doing much more than just watching, Arietta and Colt for the next bit. Let me know if you need her for something though.)

Colt entered the gym behind Arietta. It definitely looked like an electric gym. Colt walked over to the sidelines with Mami behind him. He was going to let Arietta handle things on her own.

The group hears some clanking from the wall on the other side of the gym, and a boisterous laughing voice echoes across the gym. "It's been a little while since I've had a challenger!" A man, whom Arietta assumed was Wattson, pushed aside a large metal door and stepped out onto the open field. He had a friendly attitude around him; Wattson was a little heavy, and about an inch or two taller then Arietta herself. Arietta shifted nervously, but swallowed and gave a friendly smile. "It's been a long time since I've wanted to battle a trainer, let alone a gym leader, myself." She says, walking forward to shake the man's hand, "I'm hoping this battle will help me brush up a lot on my skills and teach me something." Wattson's smile softens, "Ah, getting back into the business can take some time. So I take it you don't have any gym badges then, mam?" Arietta shake her head, and he nods, "Okay, in this battle we both will use 4 pokemon, if we have them. The first person to knock out their opponents pokemon wins. Any questions?" He raises a brow, and she shakes her head, "Okay, good. Lets get this started." The two of them go to either side of the gym, and a referee come out of the same door Wattson did. After a moment of the man getting himself all set up, he raises two flags and shouts "Let the battle begin!" and brings the flags down. Wattson smiles and yells, "Come on out, Voltorb!" He tosses the ball. A ball appears on the field, and she's never seen the pokemon before- but thinking fast she grabs Theo's pokeball. "Let's do this, Theo!" She tosses the ball on the ground and the electric appears barking and ready. Wattson seems surprised at the appearance of an electric pokemon, but brushes it off. "Rollout!" The Voltorb spins and lauches directly at Theo. Arietta shouts "Dodge it and use quick attack!" Theo jumps out of the way as fast as possible, and immediately turns around and smacks as hard and fast as it can into Voltorb. The Voltorb sparks, but Theo doesn't feel a thing. "Oh ho ho! It has lightning rod! Clever." He laughs, "Voltorb use selfdestruct!" Arietta's eyes widen as the Voltorb glows and explodes in front of her eye, Theo near by. "Theo you alright?" She yells, and when the smoke clears she sees both the pokemon have fainted. She grimaces, but immediately smiles, "That was pretty clever. You wanted to test him for that ability to wipe out my possible trump card." Wattson nods with a big grin, "You're pretty observant for a returning trainer." He and Arietta both return their pokemon, and the referee shouts something about them only having three viable pokemon left. Wattson pulls out a new pokeball. "Let's go, Magneton!" He shouts and Arietta watches as the metal pokemon appears. She observes it for only a moment before she decides. "Scimitar, come on out!" She shouts, and unleashes the honedge. Wattson's eyes widen this time. "You're definitely not from Hoenn. I thought I heard an accent in your voice. You're from Kalos, I think, at least. I've never seen a pokemon like that!" He smiles and lets out a booming laugh, "Magneton, use Super sonic." Scim shakes it off, and Arietta smiles, "He's not affected by normal type attacks! Scim, use shadow sneak!" The pokemon chitters and pulls out of it's sheath, tossing it to Arietta as it sunk into the shadows dramatically, then popped up behind the surprised looking magneton. "Magneton!" Wattson shouts, but before he could give a command, Arietta yells to Scimitar. "Scimitar, use sacred sword!" She yells, and the pokemon chitters sinisterly before swiping back and hitting the steel pokemon with all it could muster. The Magneton is smacked into the ground, but not fainted. Though, it did look pretty tired- honedges were known for their good attack stats. Wattson nodded in approval at her methods, and smiled, "Magneton, use shockwave!" Arietta's mouth opened and she cringed as Scimitar was blasted with electricity, "Hang in there, Scim!" She shouts just as the pokemon looked like it was about to feint from one hit of the electricity, "What would Moraya think if she saw you taken down in one hit! She'd never let you live it down!" She added, and that seemed to rouse the pokemon. Scim- still being shocked with electricity, made an odd chittering sound before beginning to glow. Arietta's eyes widened, and Scim split in two. A new plack appeared behind the two Scims, sheaths appearing on it. Finally Scmitar stops glowing, his tassels and eyes now pink as he donned the form of his evolution: Doublade. "Well, it looked like he didn't want this 'Moraya' person holdin' this over his head forever!" Wattson laughed, and a smile spread slow across Arietta's face. "Moraya's not gonna stand a chance against you next time you two battle, Scim!" Arietta laughs, "Use Nightslash!" The two scims chatter ominously and glow black, slicing down on the Magneton. There's a moment of silence, before the announcer yells, "Magneton is unable to battle, Wattson now only has two pokemon remaining, his opponent 3!" Arietta cheers, and Scim seems to sag out of exhaustion, "Good job Scim, Moraya and Jeeves wouldn't have been able to handle that!" Wattson returns the pokemon, and smiles, "The battle's not quite over yet, lass! Two more to go. Scimitar there looks pretty tired." Arietta nods, and returns the pokemon, congratulating it on it's victory. Wattson tosses a new pokemon onto the field: an electrike. "I'm lookin forward to see what pokemon you pull out next!" He laughs. Arietta gives him a big smile, "I'm sure you'll like them, they're Kalos natives." She pulls out Jeeves' pokeball, "Go Jeeves! I know you can do this!" The cat pokemon appears on the field, and stares at the electrike. It sniffs, and its fur puffs out when a wave of static hits it. "Well, now I see that your pokemon has the static ability." Arietta chuckles, and Wattson's boisterous laugh echos around them again. "It's so adorable! I don't see how it can do much!" He laughs, and Jeeves huffs quietly, a little ticked at that.

Colt watched as Arietta battled. She seemed to be doing really well. In fact, she was very likely to win from what he could see. He just hoped that Arietta was doing well and it wasn't a reflection of Wattsons skills. He was hoping to challenge Wattson himself sometime before they departed Mauville. Colt leaned forward in anticipation. "You've got this." Colt mumbled.

Mami watched in stunned fascination as Arietta and Watson battled. She had never seen anything like it before in her life, and Nina and Bob were both hopping around doing their best to cheer Arietta on. Neither knew the girl very well, but she was Mami's friend, and that all they needed to know. Even Nina who was brand new to the group.
Mami winces each time one of Arietta's pokemon takes a hit... heck, she does this every time one of Watson's pokemon takes a hit. It was exciting, but it just proved that Mami wasn't suited to be a pokemon trainer herself. Still, she had already known that, so it wasn't all that great of a discovering.
The revelation that Arietta was from Kalos was nice. Mami quietly wondered if Arietta had ever been to Laverre town, where Mami had grown up... it was something that Mami would have to ask her about later.

Arietta smiles, "Jeeves, I believe in you!" She yells, and the tiny pokemon puffs out its chest in pride. It seemed to have gained so much confidence from so little training, she was proud of the little pokemon. "Electrike, use thunderfang!" Wattson yells, and the tiny electrike zips forward and blinding speeds and bites Jeeves. Jeeves squeals as electricity courses through him. "Jeeves, hang in there!" She shouts, and the little pokemon's eyes narrow in pain when the electrike lets go. Arietta resists the urge to rush over to her little pokemon. Jeeves hesitates but gets up. It looked hurt, but not enough to make Arietta think about retracting him just yet. "Jeeves use pyschic!" She shouts, and the pokemon's eyes go white and it's ears lift to reveal the sensitive glands of energy, which glow with its eyes. The pokemon lifts up the electrike and hurls it into the ground, before throwing it into a wall- not very hard though- just enough to make the electrike a little cross-eyed, "Jeeves, while it's dazed use psybeam!" Arietta yells, and Jeeves complies, shooting a beam of psychic energy at the pokemon. Wattson whistles and the electrike snaps out of it, then zips away at lightning speed. "Electrike hit it with spark!" Wattson yells, a smirk on his face say he knew it'd knock out Jeeves. Arietta frowned. "Jeeves catch it with psychic and do what you did to the trapinch!" Arietta yells as the electrike sprints at Jeeves sparking. It takes Jeeves a moment to register, but he catches the electrike right before it hits him, making Arietta nearly collapse out of relief. Jeeves smacks the electrike harder on the ground and brings it close to it's face, screaming at it with disarming voice. Then, after deafening the poor thing, throws it at the ground. "Come on, kid, you can get up, I know you can!" He yells to the pokemon, and the electrike gets up after a short moment, then barks at Jeeves- Jeeves hisses back. "Thatta boy!" Wattson smiles and laughs, "Spark, but be dodgy about it!" He commands and the electrike complies. Arietta lets out a squeak of shock when the electrike zig-zags so fast neither she or Jeeves can track the pokemon, and it headbutts Jeevees on the forehead. Just as it hits Jeeves, the pokemon's ears flare open and a blast of psychic energy it let free. Both Jeeves and the electrike are thrown back. "Jeeves!" Arietta yells, and catches the pokemon. It was fainted. She looked out and saw that the electrike was, as well. She kisses Jeeves on the forehead, "good job, Jeeves." She whispers as the referee shouts something about both pokemon fainting, and she having two left, Wattson one. "That was pretty intense!" Wattson nods in appreciation, "Was that an attack?" Arietta shakes her head, "It's Espurr's self defense reflex. Their ears contain massive amounts of energy that they can barely control- it's why they're not popular house pokemon in Kalos." She returns Jeeves, and reaches back into her bag for her last pokemon. "Go, Moraya! Show them how it's done, little princess." She laughs, and the sylveon jumps as it lands on the ground with excitement. Wattson raises a brow. "Ah, I've seen pictures of this pokemon. One of the gym leaders in Kalos that I talk to has it." He smiles, "Lets go, Manectric!" Throws out the final pokemon, and Arietta scans his the man as he does this- good, no keystone that she can see on his body. Moraya scans over the pokemon, then yips and moves around her ribbons a little when she likes her evaluation- she knew she could beat the pokemon. "Moraya, use dazzling gleam!" She smiles, and the pokemon charges a ball of energy in it's mouth before firing them at the manectric. The Manectric zips away and the attack misses. "Manectric use shockwave!" Wattson's smile widens, and the manectric blasts Moraya with electricity. Moraya cringes, but when the attack ends it just shakes it's head and smiles along with Arietta. "Sylveon have good resistance to attacks like that! Moraya, use draining kiss!" The Sylveon barks and jumps on the Manectric still recovering from the shock that it's attack did virtually nothing. It kisses it on the nose, and Wattson blinks before bursting into a laughing fit. That was, before it jumped back and the area the kiss was planted on glowed and bubbles of energy bubbled into the air, being absorbed into Moraya. Moraya looked healthier, and it's fur looked more shiny. "Well I'll be damned." Wattson blinks, and recovers, "Manectric use volt tackle!" He shouts, and Arietta shouts at the same time, "Moraya, use swift!" Moraya's ability was pixilate, and the swift came out unusually sparkly for an attack that shot out stars. They hit the Manectric head on, and Manectric recovered quickly, charging at Moraya with energy blasting off of it. "Moraya use dazzling gleam!" Arietta shouts, knowing that Moraya isn't fast enough to dodge the attack. Moraya shoot the powerful fairy attack at Manectric, who it obviously hurts, but it keeps going. Moraya and Manectric collide, and an explosion happens at Volt tackle hits the source of Dazzling gleam. Arietta tenses, waiting for the smoke to clear. When it does, both of the pokemon are fainted. "Volt tackle has recoil." Arietta mumbles, then the referee interrupts her thoughts. "Leader Wattson is out of usable pokemon, the Challenger, with one pokemon remaining, wins!!" Arietta stares for a moment then returns Moraya and squeals in pure delight, "We did it!" She jumps and runs over to Wattson, who was laughing loudly. "Congratulations, lass! You won!" He shakes her hand. "Yeah, by the skin of my teeth! If your Manectric didn't faint I'd be screwed! I'm Arietta by the way!" Arietta's smile was wide, and joy was sparkling in her eyes like a child's. "It was a good battle, Arietta." Wattson digs into his pocket and pulls out the Dynamo badge, giving it to her. She takes it and thanks him again. "Colt, Mami, we did it!" She shouts running to the two.

Colt had to hold himself back from yelling in triumph himself. "That was an amazing battle. It was very close there for a second." Colt gave off a nervous laugh, as if he had just finished battling. He placed his hand behind his head. "I guess that means that I'm paying for dinner and a place to stay. It's a quarter past 6 right now, so we'll go eat soon." He turned towards Wattson. "I'll be back at 9 am tomorrow to challenge you myself, so be ready for it." Colt thought for a second, then reached into his jacket, pulling out a dark, cloudy, stone and handing it to Arietta. "Here, it's a dusk stone. From what I've heard from Cynthia you need one in order to evolve a Doublade."

Mami clapped gasped when Skim evolved. She hadn't been expecting that. He was a bit more intimidating now, but also stronger, it seemed. And Mami was happy to see him claim victory. She had to admit, knowing that this was just a friendly competition and the pokemon were more than happy to help out their trainers, Mami found herself enjoying this more and more. It was so exciting. Mami was cheering excitedly right along with Nina and Bob. She cringed as Sylveon and Manectric clashed, having no idea how this would turn out, covering her eyes partially until the referee gave his decision: Arietta had won!
Mami ran forward, grinning from ear to ear, "That was amazing," she grinned, beaming at the taller girl. "You did it!!" she said, a bit surprised with how excited she was suddenly. She moved forward, a part of her wanting to hug Arietta in congratulations, but she hesitated, not sure how the other woman would react in the least.

Wattson laughs and nods, "I look forward to battling you tomorrow, kid!"
Arietta picks up the stone and stares at it with wide eyes, then her smile gets even larger, and she gives Colt a big hug, "Thank you!" Then says in his ear, "I'll make sure the dinner is really expensive, just for you." and she pulls away laughing. She turns to Mami and picks her up in a hug, "Thanks Mami!" She twirls her around, "having you two here gave me a lot of confidence." She pulls away from the smaller girl and adjusts her bag, "I should go heal my pokemon. Thank you so much Mr.Wattson!" Wattson nods and waves a goodbye. "See you all tomorrow!"

Colt blushed slightly as Arietta hugged him. "It's no big deal, really." He says, awkwardly scratching the back of his head. He looks down at Lucifer who seemed to be chuckling to himself. Colt pulls out his pamphlet. "There is a restaurant by the game corner that is apparently one of the best in Hoenn. I guess we'll go their to celebrate." Colt put his pamphlet back in his jacket. "I'll go get us a seat, while you go heal your pokemon. Mami can go with you as well." He turned and walked out of the gym. 'I'm crazy' He thought. 'I'm going to end up spending a fortune on the hotel and the food.' Colt walked into the restaurant and talked to the waitress at the front. "A table for 3, please. Oh, and I'm going to have my pokemon out." The waitress nodded and lead him to his booth. "One of the others has a shroomish always with her." He told the waitress to help identify Mami. The waitress walked away, and Lucifer and Lilith took residence in the far side of the booth. It seemed to be made with that specific purpose in mind, as it was rather large.

Mami blushed crimson as she was hugged so suddenly, and giggled nervously as Arietta swung around. She was just a little disappointed when she was put down again, but she smiled, "Happy to help," she said, smiling shyly. She pulled Bob off of her head and used him to hide her face, not sure she could handle anyone looking at her right now. She wondered why she was reacting so badly, but didn't think about it for long.
She followed behind Arietta, still smiling softly, "Will Theo and everyone be alright?" she asked suddenly, hoping that they weren't injured too badly. Now that the excitement was past, Mami remembered why she didn't normally deal with battles of any type. She hated to think of anyone getting hurt, "Um... and Mr. Wattson's pokemon? Do you... will they be okay?" she asked shyly, hoping they would be... she didn't like to think of anyone being in pain, for any length of time at all...

Arietta nods at Colt, "I'll see you there!" She and Mami depart from Colt and head to the pokecenter.
Arietta looks down to Mami with slight surprise, "Yes, they'll be fine." She smiles, and pats Mami on the head as she enters the pokemon center, "Pokemon are tougher then most humans. They're tough little cookies!" She laughs, and gives Nurse Joy her pokeballs. The Nurse puts them into a machine with six slots, then after only a moment, gives them back. "Have a nice day!" the nurse bows and Arietta thanks her. Before she starts walking again, she lets out Scim, Moraya, Theo and Jeeves, and kneels down to them. "You guys did awesome." She hugs them, "We won because of all the hard work you did! Thank you all so much." The pokemon snuggle up next to her and bark or make pleased noises. After a moment of snuggling together, she returns them all- except Scimitar to their pokeballs. She smiles up at her oldest pokemon, who chitters happily at her. "Scim, me and you have been together for almost ten years now. You're my closest friend, and a big part of my family. I'm so happy you've gotten stronger, and I wanted to show you something." Arietta pulls out the darker stone that Colt gave her, "This is a gift Colt gave us, and I want to know if you want to use it. It'll cause you to evolve into an Aegislash, your final form- but I want it to be your choice." She pauses, and holds the stone out to the pokemon, "Do you want it?" Scim stares at the stone, and chitters happily after a long moment of regarding it. Reaching out with a tassel and grabbing the stone. Arietta steps back as the stone sends a white wave up Scimitar's body. The pokemon's blades fuse together, but change shape, keeping both tassels. The plack the sheath rested on also changes, and becomes shield like. After a moment of bright light, Scimitar stares at Arietta as one massive blade that's taller then her by a good three inches. "Scim you're huge!" Arietta laughs, and the blade makes a deep sounding chuckle-like noise. Arietta stands up and begins to walk out with Scimitar. "I hope the restaurant doesn't mind you." She mumbles, smiling, as she motions for Mami to follow.
The restaurant had no problem they were just surprised by the pokemon. She slides in next to Colt as Scim takes seat next to Colt's pokemon. "He's taller then me now." She says to Colt, as the shock of it all finally begins to hit her.

"Yeah, he definitely got big." Colt looked at the sword with a shield. "Now that he's evolved though, things are different. Apparently Aegislash has a unique way of fighting, though I don't know much about it. You're lucky he evolved when he did during the battle." He picked up his menu and began scanning for something to order. Again, he looks for the most basic food on the menu. "I think I'm going to order a basic burger." Colt looks back at Arietta. "You seem very happy to have won your first badge. I'm glad I could help." Colt smiled. "Oh yeah," He says turning to Mami. "How was it watching your first gym battle?"

Arietta smiles and nods, before looking at Mami, "I'm also curious. I know you were worried about how the pokemon were, but I feel like you aren't one who's exposed to battles on a regular basis." She says and looks at her menu. It was large, and she didn't recognize much on it but the fish and pasta dishes. She thinks about it for a moment, then decides on some pasta dish that she'd never heard of before.

Mami yelped when she saw just how large Scim had gotten, and shook her head nervously. She knew that some pokemon really changed as they evolved, Tom for example was hardly recognizable from when he was a Teddyursa. She wondered if Bob and Nina would get that big... but she doubted they would change quite as much.
Mami rubbed her neck at their questions, "Well... I was a little scared at first, but I don't know... the pokemon had fun, right?" she asked, and she was pretty sure about that, and she looked to Scim and the others to make sure they'd enjoyed themselves, "It was... really exciting once I saw that," she said with a small smile. "I'm kind of looking forward to the next one," she said, and frowned at the menu, "Um, this please," she said, point to a salad that was supposedly made from ingridients fresh from the forest... that sounded nice for some reason.

Colt sat in silence for a moment, taking a sip of the free water the waitress had dropped off earlier. He tried to think of something to say. He didn't want Mami to feel left out, but he wasn't very sure what to talk about. "Apparently the hotel here is decent enough, but not so good that it is going to drain my wallet." Colt made a short laugh. "Hopefully there are enough rooms open for the three of us to stay separately. With the incident of the cycling road, people may have postponed a trip to Slateport and stayed there."

Arietta nods and looks at him, "If you want, my mom gave me a... very large sum of money to help pay for things over here. I think she expected me to go on a pokemon journey." Arietta shrugs, "We can share a room, two beds. Mami and I can take one bed and you the other. It'd save you a large chunk of money and allow our pokemon to get to know one another a little better, us too." she smiles at Mami and Colt, "I mean, I've known you two for a very short amount of time. I know so little about either of you." She pauses, thinking for a moment, "I'll go get a deck of cards and we can play and just bond a little." Arietta stirs the water in her cup a little bit with a straw before taking a sip in thought, "Mami, you don't seem like the battling type, but you obviously love pokemon. I hear they have something called pokemon contests here where you can show off how amazing your pokemon is. I'm not really sure how it works, but when my mom was home she'd often watch them on the TV. Maybe we should try to find a contest place for you to try."

Mami blinked at Arietta, "Share the same bed?" she asked, suddenly feeling nervous, but couldn't think of why. Mami played with her own water as Bob and Nina chattered happily. The young woman wasn't sure what to do at the moment... she kind of wished Tom was hear.. "What the!" Mami turned to see what the suddenly yelling from behind them was, and blinked as she watched Tom approaching them, a chair in his paws as he approached them. He sat next to Mami and nodded.
... Sometimes even Mami was shocked with how he was always there when she needed him... but still, it didn't seem like that big of a deal... did it?
Mami looked at Arietta curiously, "A contest?" she asked, not sure how she would handle something like that. Bob pulled himself up, a smug look on his face, "Shroooooom" he said confidently, "Oh? you think you would do well in something like that?" she asked, moving the shroomish down to the table as she giggled at him playfully. "Maybe I will try a contest sometime... do you know where I'd find one?" she asked, looking at her companion's curiously, not sure how to go about something like this.

Colt raised his hand in denial. "No, no. i promised I would pay for it if you won, and I'm gonna stick by my word. Though one room does sound smarter." Colt thought for a second, then blushed. "We would need to make sure to regulate bathroom use, though." "There's one up in Fallarbor town. It's just passed the sandstorm." Colt looked at Mami. "I've never personally thought of doing a contest. You seem like you would really enjoy it, though."
