Night Watch

First topic message reminder :

The only thing lighting Black Mist Mountain at the moment was the moon and the stars in the sky, a chilly nighttime breeze blowing through the area. Ava had found that she enjoyed traveling at night, even though it was double sided. While it made it harder for some others to see you and easier to stay hidden, it also proved to be quite the inconvenience, as she couldn't see as well as she normally could too.
"Well, no use complaining about it now. Might as well see what I can find around here." She muttered to herself as she walked on the rocky ground, stepping through the area. Several larger rocks and boulders seemed to litter the area, almost appearing to be the remnants of some sort of rock slide. Might want to be careful of that then. The Oshawott pointed out to herself, stepping over to a boulder and grabbing her shell from her front. She eyed the rock, tapping it with her scalchop as if to test it.
"I don't think that's going to be able to lodge itself in there, it's a pretty hard rock." Ava muttered turning around and looking around the dark area, squinting to look out for anything nearby through the mist and darkness of night.

What is this guy even doing? "Not that you need bother yourself remembering it", rude and stuck-up. Avaria frowned, not moving as Kari walked closer and then backed off.
"The name's Avaria, just stick with Ava. And commit it to memory." She responded, specifically deciding to tell him the opposite of what he told her for not much other reason then simply because she could. The Oshawott rested her paw on her scalchop, ready in the event that the Absol decided to attack as she glanced over at the Skiddo she had met.
"Well, I answered. You're up." She told him, immediately bringing her gaze back to Kari as she kept a cautious eye on him.

The skiddo was not too sure if he should reveal his name, but if it would make these pokemon happy he guessed it would be the smart thing to do, "A-Aries..."
These pokemon were making him uncomfortable, and skittish, the OSHA-FREAKING-WOTT not as much but the absol scared him half to death. He stayed though, in hopes of befriending them both and having fun, and in fear that if he ran he would be tracked down and attacked. The skiddo wondered what the two were thinking, the oshawott did not seem to like the absol very much, and nobody has yet to explain to him what the strange word the absol used means.
