Sure am!

I've been a doctor most of my life, so I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

[But their guild designations really aren't the most important thing in the moment, are they?

Maybe it's just something about mountains and being an oni, but Akira can't help finding this place rather comfortable. The snow isn't any worse than the kind he's summoned before, and the Bug type who chose the route seems just as unfazed! On the other hand...]

Having access to the archives has been such a valuable resource, too! I've been able to learn all about our type matchups and other adaptations. So... [Not so subtly pointing out the apparent injury that's held his attention this whole time,] Is it because of the cold? Or do you need something fixed up when we're done here?

[shotinhead]

I've been spending my time documentin' what I can, honestly, but the archives are pretty nice. Honestly, though, I think th'housing is good too. Imagine livin' in the tunnels! [ It was said with a bit of a laugh, but with a sharpness to it. ]

My wing? Oh, uh. Got a bit injured helpin' in-- so, you remember how some of us were sent off to scout around the place? Yeah.

[hundredeyesoni]

[He could comment on how funny he finds everyone's idea of a livable space, but with the confirmation that it really is an injury, and recent at that,]

That's terrible!!

[For all the concern he might be trying to present, Akira seems.. Excited? Well, it is his usual state.]

Does it still hurt? I'm afraid I left my most effective medicines with the clinic, so all I have right now are some standard berries and a mild painkiller... Ah! More importantly! All I got to see were the volcano and now this calm place! Was the other way dangerous!? I'd heard there was a storm...

[shotinhead]

[ A concerned sound. ] Shouldn't we be focusin' on keepin' Escavalier safe? [ But his side is aching a lot more, from the cold shivering though him. The weakness of a Dragon/Flying-type, huh. ]

But yeah, there was a bloody massive storm, [ Courier Six said, giving a bit of a frown. ] Freaked out the local birds. But worse then that was what we found. And th'crash landing I did. Nearly squished the guys I was with.

[hundredeyesoni]

[The one who's clearly doing even better than himself? No.. he's pretty sure the Dragonite needs to be his focus right now.]

Don't worry! The terrain shouldn't pose any risks for a species with levitation. And if anything tries to attack, I'll see it coming! I want to know about what you found! Tell me!

[If the stability of the ground beneath them is the issue, though, maybe it's the Slowking that won't be "safe" when things go south. ... Well, it's not a problem if he hasn't acknowledged it.]

[shotinhead]

[ Sigh. Okay. He gives a bit of a stretch before he talks. ]

There was a weird time-displaced version of the Archives. Or, a copy of it which had been abandoned? But same layout, same sorta shit in there.

[hundredeyesoni]

[And he didn't get to go with that group!?]

Were the tablets the same? Were there records our regular one doesn't have!? I'd have loved to read through every one of them myself! You said you crashed, but could it be reached without flight? I need to find it after thiis!

[... Maybe learning about a second, secret archive is just a bit too much to multitask around.]

[shotinhead]

[ Oh. He looks a little grumpy, as he keeps moving. ] The good news is that th'flood went away.

But the tablets were all ruined. Couldn't read 'em anymore.

[hundredeyesoni]

[What? No, that can't be right. They're carvings. The whole point of using tablets instead of books should be to preserve their contents even longer. And yet everyone was too late..?]

That's horrible...

First all the writing at the volcano is in another language, now this... How are we supposed to learn all these important things they wanted us to know?

["Us" as if anything would really be documented for them and not the ones who'd always been Pokemon...

Clearly upset, he looks between the Escavalier and Dragonite as if unsure what to do next.]

We'll learn something here, though, right??
