[Ibuki can be found chasing after a a certain pokémon, who's just flapping around and getting into all sorts of places and things]

Lita-chaaaaaaaaaan! Come baaaaaaaaaack!

"Nope nope nope! No booty! No booty!"

[And yes, the two will be taking a grand tour of the entirety of the Bastion, including building interiors]

[... and despite it looking like Ibuki's trying to get her chatot to return to her, she's being helpful and opening doors to places that would otherwise be inaccessible to the pokémon]

"No booty!"

[The chatot prods his beak against the hand, before hopping on]

Hey, hey, do the thing, do the in-tro-duction thing!

"Goddess of metal Lita-chan! Lita-chan!"

Yessssss!! That's you, Lita-chan!

[Ibuki pets the pokémon approvingly]

[Colin smiles, and gently runs a fingertip along the back of Lita's head.]

"Goddess of Metal", huh?

Fitting. Nice to meet you, Lita-chan.

[He looks at Ibuki, and he nods to her.]

Just hatched a little while ago?

[scary_music]

"Olin-chan!"

[The chatot closes his eyes, clicking his beak happily at the attention]

Not toooooo long ago! Ibuki's been keeping Lita-chan home for a few days until she figured out how to fly! Lita-chan learns faaaaaast! Isn't that right, Lita-chan?

"Nope!"

You mean yup!

"Nope!"

"Yup!"

"Yessss!"

[... if only Ibuki knew her chatot was a he. But it's not like Lita-chan would really care about being called a she, anyway]

[freedom_engineer]

I can see that you're learning the fine art of child-rearing. That is... teaching them words, and then marveling as they use the exact wrong ones at the exact wrong time.

[Yep, just going to keep right on gently petting the bird with his finger.]

Can you say "Primitive Fool", Lita-chan?

[Colin, stop corrupting the minor..]

[scary_music]

"Fooooooooooooool!"

[Ibuki just laughs]

Almost, Lita-chan! Almost!

[freedom_engineer]

That's a good start. You're a very, very good Lita-chan, aren't you?

[He's smiling at the bird, and his body language is calm. You'd never know how bad of a mood he was in.]

[scary_music]

"Maaaaaaaaybe."

Oooh, what's Lita-chan up to? Are you up to something?

"Yesssssss!

[freedom_engineer]

Good, Lita-chan! Always be up to something!

[He grins over at Ibuki.]

Gotta keep your mama on her toes, after all.

[scary_music]

Oooh, don't keep me up on my tippy toes too much, Lita-chan! That gets uncomfortable!

"Tippy toes!"
