That irked you more than you expected it to, especially given that you'd just gotten up. Usually you were too groggy to be this irritated. Then again, yesterday was... well, it wasn't usual, that was for sure.
"What gives, Erna? Why are you screaming and staring at me?" You snapped at her- though, said snap was about as threatening as a grumpy puppy growl. At least it was to Erna, seeing as the Buneary was hardly moved.
"You've been asleep for, like, three hours longer than you should! I wanted t' show you around Tumul Town, but it's nearly noon now! We've lost so much time!" Her arms crossed, her foot began to thump. The frown that followed was a given.
You needed some time to process everything, though- what was a Tumultown? Did she mean tumultuous, or tumble-down?
...the blank stare you were giving Erna as you processed it didn't register until she pointed it out. "...don't be a hypocrite, Indie. You're starin' right back at me."
A few blinks and some eye rubs later, you were (probably) back to earth. Or wherever this was. "Sorry, I was thinking. What do you mean?"
Erna caught herself, clearly about to get mad again, before clarifying. "Right, I keep forgettin' you don't know these things. Um, Tumul Town is this cool town near the base of Mount Augur. One of the biggest around! Ma goes down there all the time to get resources for the village, and pa goes there for work. I just think it's cool, so... I wanted to show you 'round." The Buneary smiled a little. The fact that you could still see some annoyance in her body language dampened its effects a bit, but at least she wasn't outright mad anymore.
...you'd nearly forgotten that you were on a mountain. One with a name that cool, no less. "Okay, well... I guess we could do that, yeah."
Erna earned a half-hearted shrug from you as you went to collect your things. That purse had come in handy, so you decided to hold onto it. It wasn't like anyone minded, and Erna seemed to think it looked funny, so there was little reason not to.
