[gives him a lil bow]

I'm Jiang Yanli. It's a pleasure to meet you, Emmet. It is difficult to give someone I've just met a suitable quest right away...so could you tell me a little bit about yourself?

[likewinning]

Sure. I am a Subway Boss. I like combinations of two Pokemon. And I like winning more than anything else.

[ It's clear that what he's saying is scripted, and he rocks on his heels a bit as he gets to the end of it. ]

. . . my brother is Ingo. He is here as well. He has amnesia, so he has forgotten his partner Pokemon. I am hoping to get a token so that I may request one from the box and give it to him.

[rootsforyou]

Ah...I'm sorry. I knew that a few people here had experienced amnesia, but for it to be your own brother must make it especially difficult.

[hesitates as she takes in his appearance]

By chance are you the "conductor twins"?

[likewinning]

[ He definitely got his clothes back first thing, so he looks every bit the part. Emmet nods! ]

That is correct.

[rootsforyou]

I was told to look out for you. Though I didn't hear about the circumstances with your brother. I'm sorry, the last few days must have been quite a poor introduction here.

But, let's see...since you're new and this is for your brother, share a fond childhood experience with two people. That should be enough for a token.

[likewinning]

You were?

— ah, yes. I can do that. And then when it is done, I report back to you?

[rootsforyou]

I was!

Yes, it's as simple as that. Once you're done I have to give you the token from my pouch. If you haven't done it, it won't give me a token, so you have to make sure you don't ask for a token prematurely.

[likewinning]

I see. Then I will have to make certain I am verrrry thorough with my task.

[rootsforyou]

Being thorough was my personal hope, anyway. Since you're here for a while, it's nice to meet people. Consider it an excuse to share a bit more with others.

[likewinning]

I will do my best to do just that. It should be fun.

[rootsforyou]

I wish you the best of success! If I might ask, what Pokemon was it that you wished to gift your brother?

[likewinning]

Chandelure. She is a beautiful ghost and fire type one, and has been my brother's constant partner since we were both verrrry young.

[rootsforyou]

Forgive me for my ignorance, but are "ghost types" a very common kind of Pokemon? I would have thought that most people would be unsettled by a ghost.

[likewinning]

Common enough, but many people are still put off by them. Except for my brother, of course. He raised her from a little Litwick.

[rootsforyou]

They must be very close then! Saturn did make mention that the bond between a Pokemon and their trainer can be quite strong.

[likewinning]

It is! For any trainer worth their salt, at least.

[rootsforyou]

Hmm. I feel like I know what tasks I should give you and your brother in the future, then.

[likewinning]

In that case, I shall come to you when I can take on another task.

[rootsforyou]

Please do! I am always here to help. And feel free to make use of anything in the diner's freezer if you're hungry. What do Pokemon eat? I can stock up on some food for them.

[likewinning]

They like berries! But they will eat most anything, really. Eelektross has been known to steal my fries.

[rootsforyou]

Berries are typically healthier than fries. And we'd like to keep your Pokemon as healthy as possible, so berries it is for now.

[likewinning]

Yes, that would be verrrry much appreciated!
