"..."
You prep up that rice, you prep it up hard.
However, as much as you try to forget about everything, Pikachu still manages to bring up the letter again, being the nosy one he is.
"...?"
The electric mouse leaves your shoulder momentarily to go to the couch-bed so that he can poke around with the pockets of your discarded jacket.
Couch-beds are cool, aren't they?
"Pika, pika?"
Pikachu continues to sniff the pocket, eventually nibbling on the crumpled letter. He retrieves with his mouth and then unwraps it with his fingers.
Does he like her scent or something?
"Pika pi?"
He was always the curious one, sticking his nose in places they don't belong, but you dismiss his actions with a huff. All he's going to do is read over the same schtick you read five minutes ago.
You focus your attention back on that steamy rice you're making, because fuck yeah, who doesn't like a pattern combination of rice and ramen every other day to balance out your essential healthy food group needs?
While you work like a housewife, you let out all of your other Pokemon to relax and basically chill out. Thankfully, the cave is just big enough for everyone to fit in it.
You -would- hum to go along with it, but you find that that constitutes as talking, so that raises one too many red flags right off the bat. Any source of sound is just a shotgun blast to your stoic pride. It's not worth it.
Unfortunately, your din-din does not go as planned, for as Pikachu discovers something in the letter that you just so happened to have overlooked. And by god, it's something so crucial that he feels the need to warn you about it.
