[Guess who also didn't go on a raid this month and is also feeling guilty? It's this little guy!

III is helping out around the clinic as a means of making up for that (he doesn't have any healing moves just yet, but he can keep company) when he runs into Hajime.]

Need a hand with anything? [He won't make Hajime slow down or stop, but does want to help. Anything to make up for not being there to help fight.]

Hey, actually yeah!

[Umemiya's ears perk up.]

There's a kettle I've put on for tea, but I haven't been able to stop and pour cups for those who want it. Can you make sure it gets to folks? It's made with dried Aspear berries, so those who got frozen or who are cold will benefit most. But it's also good tea in general!

[swordarc]

Of course. [III nods in acknowledgement before rushing off to go handle the tea.

It's something familiar, he thinks as he pours cups. It's not unlike preparing tea for his family, a gesture meant to try to bring peace to his bickering older brothers and unstable father.

Of course, thinking about his absent family only causes homesickness, so III does his best to dispel that train of thought and focus on the Pokémon in need. If nothing else, he's attentive, using his psychic abilities to carry more tea while making sure to confirm who wanted some.

He'll even offer an extra cup to Umemiya, just in case he wants some.]

[Umemiya hesitates--the tea was intended for the injured, and he's not that. But...but the gesture is a kind one. So he accepts the cup, moving to lean on a wall out of the way of clinic chaos to take a sip.]

Thank you. This helps a lot.

[swordarc]

It's no problem. We should make sure we're good to keep going too, so that we can keep helping everyone who got hurt.

[Notably, III does not take any tea for himself. A little hypocritical there.]

[fromsprouts]

[Umemiya's ears perk in a manner that seems to express surprise or perhaps suspicion.]

You don't get to say that unless you're making sure you're good to keep going, too.
