route_1065 | Ghostly goings-on

That may be a good place to begin, then.

So let's go there!

*nods*

Did you want to lead the way, then...?

Mmhmm! Just follow me.

[she will lead the way then]

*not that he needs to be shown, really, but just playing along for now...*

[At the very least, she does know the way, so it's a pretty straightforward walk there, no getting lost or anything.]

Here we are.

Well, let's see what we can find, shall we?

*...hopefully Marian likes to read, because Sion could be at this for a while.....*

[...Not really, no. She's not interested in ghost stories, scientific journals are sooooooo dull, and her favorites are kind of irrelevant to the subject matter at hand. Oh, she'll flip through a few things to try to help out, but her attention span is... lacking.

(The hypothetical Ryner-shard, of course, thinks that talk of any of this being dull is blasphemy, and to the extent that he may or may not be capable, is paying as close attention as he can to everything Marian reads with his eyes. ...Assuming that there is such an aware Ryner-shard around, which again, is up in the air.)]

*well, Sion seems quite content to look through all those "dull" journals and such, perhaps even fascinated by them, and generally it's not long before he's pretty thoroughly engrossed in the material he's gathered, relying on the pokemon to alert him if something happens that requires his attention....*

[...well, that just means you're handsome, kind, charismatic, and book-smart. Jocks are overrated anyway :3

She'll let you do you reading for a while, and even keep attempting to help for a little bit, though eventually (much to the hypothetical Ryner-shard's hypothetical dismay) she starts forgoing the reading in lieu of just watching Sion read. Staring at him while caught up in a daydream.]

*....Sion isn't going to want to know what those daydreams are, is he?

perhaps fortunately for him, however, he's too absorbed in trying to figure out a solution to this to think about that right now*

[Oh they're tame, I promise. But... yes, probably better that he doesn't know.

...Eventually, though, Marian's stomach loudly growls.]

*looks up abruptly at that noise*

Ah, has it been that long? My apologies, I shouldn't be keeping you if you're hungry....

[She nervously laughs a little, embarrassed.]

Oh, no, it's fine, really.

*moving to get up from where he's sitting*

Please, I shouldn't detain you, if you're hungry you can say something.

But I don't want to leave you alone to do all of this by yourself, either...

Well, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to take a break...

*enjoy this, hypothetical shard of Ryner who may or may not be aware- you might never hear him say this again*

[...okay yes, the hypothetical Ryner-shard, should he exist and be aware, concedes that this, right here? Is not quite worth everything that he is having to endure right now, but it is certainly worth a very large amount of it.]

You mean it? I know just the place, then.

*well, he can't just risk letting her wander off in Ryner's body, now can he?*

Oh?

*...will just start picking up and organizing books and papers and such...*

It's a little café just down the road. Everyone's really nice, and they make great food.

Well, if you say it is...

It really is. Trust me, you'll love it.

*nods, finishing putting away his books*

All right.

[so she will just lead the way again, then]

*Ryner when you are back to normal you owe him SO MUCH for all this :|*
