[ Yukari nods, before scooping Bulbasaur up in her arms and making it to her feet. ]
Well, I guess I'd be pretty interested in how it worked too if I had any chance of understanding how it works... Fuuka would probably be impossible to pull away from it if she were here.
[ Yukari doesn't put Bulbasaur back in the ball just yet. It just seemed a bit... wrong to do that. ]
Yeah. She's really good with technology and machines and stuff. Something like that machine would have her interested for days... though if she were here with us, she'd probably still be asking you for more details on your giant robots.
[That gets a chuckle out of him as they walk out of the Center and into the dusk air.]
I imagine those would be popular with people from your time period. If I'm not mistaken, there was an entire sub-genre of science fiction dedicated to mobile suits, wasn't there?
It would be nice to have someone to talk to about that kind of thing more often. Back home, I really only have my best friend. But Kira and I work for two different nations now -- allied, but different.
I miss it a bit. Before I became a soldier, I was planning on becoming a mechanical engineer.
During the past four years, the nations of the world have gone to war with each other twice. Right now, I think working to maintain a lasting peace is the most important thing to do.
It's fine. You had no way of knowing. But at this point I don't mind it being a hobby. I feel like I'm doing something worthwhile, and I can't really ask for more than that out of a career.
[ She sighs, not saying anything else for a few moments, just holding her Bulbasaur closer to her as they make it closer to the Pokemon center's desk. While she's thinking of something else to say to him, she'll head up to talk to the nurse about the whole food thing for her Pokemon. ]
[ When she comes back over to Athrun, she has a bit of a smile on her face. Considering that she actually has something nicer to talk about though, it's not really that surprising. ]
Well, I guess this probably should've been pretty obvious, but getting food for our Pokemon is basically just like getting food for any other pet. So getting something that they'll be able to eat isn't going to be a problem.
[ Except for money, obviously. But... cross that bridge when they get to it, right? ]
Sounds good to me. We should... probably try to get some stuff for us there too. I don't think it'll be a good idea for us to eat out whenever we manage to make it to a town like this.
[ Not to mention, you know, having food for when they're between towns. ]
[ Yukari nods, but before she can really say anything she needs to bend down so that Bulbasaur could jump out of her arms and start walking next to her now, since that seems like what her Pokémon wanted.]
Yeah... but at least a pot shouldn't really be that expensive.
[ Well, she hopes, anyway. Who knows how much a camping quality pot would actually cost? ]

[ And they'd already talked about how likely it was for real life, so no reason to go back there. ]
Though unlike a lot of people who'd be asking you about it, she might actually be able to understand a decent amount about how those work.

Well, can't you still become an engineer after you're done? It's not like you're going to stay in the military forever, right?

Sorry. I guess that was stupid of me. If... you obviously would've already thought of that idea if it was even remotely feasible.

We could probably find a supermarket or something while we're out. I bet they have Pokémon food.

Which should be the cheapest options, too. Though we may have to buy a pot.

[And then they went and did their business.]
