EVENT - The Rescue Team Moves [Action - Twist Mountain/Icirrus]

[united_mods]

 The trek through Twist mountain started not long after arriving in Mistralton of course, but the trek through the mountain is still a long one. Despite knowing a short-cut of sorts, Iris leads the rescue teams through a complex maze of tunnels, with camp being set whenever rest is needed, typically somewhere along the walls that line the center 'opening'.

The journey assuredly has tales to tell, but then again, so would the brief pit-stop in Icirrus no doubt; it's December after all, so there's snow EVERYWHERE!

[[OOC - Once again, you're free to mingle, but there's a catch; anything in Icirrus MUST happen on the 19th; it's forward dated! ]]

Still in Twist mountain, yaaay. >.>;;

Sephiroth was not particularly bothered by the cold. Not as long as they were moving anyway. He blamed the power reduction he got from this place for any problems he had with that.

He hung back from the rest of the group as they traveled. Most of them were only about half his age it seemed. And likely never planned something that could destroy their worlds. So he found it hard to relate. He might have tried traveling ahead by himself but, didn't really feel like trying to navigate this place. He wasn't sure he cared whether his sour mood made anyone uneasy.

Minerva was cold but, she refused to go in her Poké ball so, she was clinging to Sephiroth cuddling under his hair near the back of his neck.

It wasn't the Blade Drifts of Zopheir but it was still pretty cold. Estelle shivered as she tried getting a bit too close to people in the group. The extra body heat would warm them all up... maybe.

"Brrr..." Estelle murmured, accidentally bumping into Sephiroth in an attempt to share body heat. Yup, way too close.

"Oh, um, my apologies, it's just... very cold after all," Estelle stammered.

Sephiroth didn't show much annoyance at being bumped into but, Minerva squeaked angrily from under his hair. She was usually more easy going but, she doesn't like even the slim chance of being dislodged from her warm spot.

"It's alright. Just a simple mistake." He frowned. She wasn't going to end up getting sick, was she? That would be inconvenient. He wasn't going to allow himself to be used as a space heater though.... Besides for Minerva anyway.

Estelle beamed at Sephiroth, glad that she didn't really cause any trouble.

"Ahaha~ What a relief! Well, um, how far do you think it is to Iccirus?" she inquired, striking up a conversation.

[creepy_son_of_a]

Sephiroth wasn't used to being beamed at by people but, if it bothered him at all it didn't show.

"I believe approximately one week was an estimated travel time." That had been the optimistic estimate anyway. At least they hadn't been traveling for quite that long yet. Being unfamiliar with the place he wasn't sure how far they had left to go though.

[brightvesperia]

"That's um... pretty long... Do we have enough supplies?" Estelle wondered briefly, kind of standing there in shock.

[creepy_son_of_a]

"Perhaps." Sephiroth didn't know about anyone else but, he'd made sure to bring enough supplies for a week and a half at least. For himself and his Pokémon anyway. "I wouldn't worry about it."

"Oh, um, I guess," Estelle replied nervously, starting to walk again.

"So um, how many badges or ribbons have you gotten?"

[creepy_son_of_a]

Sephiroth regarded her for several moments. That she was engaging him in small talk instead of their likely friendlier companions was interesting. It almost seemed like he wasn't going to respond but he did after a long pause.

"Six badges and one ribbon." He didn't really think of the ribbon as his though. Genesis had practiced his performance mostly on his own and competed without much direction from Sephiroth at all.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING ANYMORE.

"Oh, well I just have to beat Skyla to get where you are at the moment but the Celestial Tower was so fascinating that I forgot a bit about training~" Estelle giggled nervously.

"Did you know its base structure was formed around -- years ago when settlers in Unova had... ...and what's most striking is the bell's structure you see ... and because of this the Pokemon in the Tower are drawn to... ...Oh um, sorry, I ranted."

Most of that probably went over Sephiroth's head.
