MAY EGG HUNT #4

The logic behind it all made sense.

Real-life creatures would go about hiding their eggs in places that weren't easy to find, to hide them from predators. Turtle eggs buried in the sand being a rather prominent example. It stood to reason that Pokemon would do the same.

She didn't quite understand how she was going to be able to hatch them, however, but perhaps these eggs were simply able to sense affection and warmth. Weirder things have happened in this world already, to her knowledge.

With a large blanket that she's spread out across the ground, she laid down and simply rested for now. Her Fenniken was wandering about, seemingly sticking her head into every hat that was lying about.

Why were there so many random hats left here anyway?

"You know, I could imagine worse things to do with my afternoon." She said to herself, letting out a soft sigh and closing her eyes for now. "If there are eggs around here, we'll find them eventually. Not in any rush, are we gal?"

Her fox pokemon would stick its head out of a wide-brimmed hat, nodding its head in return. It was clearly more interested in the hats than eggs, alas.

Her eyes opened as she heard someone else approach. She slowly sat up from her position on the ground, stretching slightly. It seemed like she wasn't the only one to come searching for eggs this way. As she was waved at, Ruby waved right back.

Her Fennekin poked its head out from underneath a tophat it had seemingly hid completely inside of. She let out a yip in greeting, only to bounce on over to another hat, regardless of the stranger.

"Hey," Ruby spoke softly. "Yeah. I mean, I'm not really looking super hard. I'm kinda hoping to make a few hatch and find where they are hidden afterward." She smiled softly, moving to sit down on her knees in a comfortable position for now.

"One of the Pokemon Breeders suggested it when I spoke with them beforehand. Definitely less stressful than digging around without a plan, anyways. You're welcome to sit with me for a while if you want. I was gonna start a small fire in a bit to get some warmth going, to maybe help hatch a few."

"Oh, you need not worry about that." Ruby smiled softly at the idea of somehow, player class playing into things. "Faye? Be a dear and come over here please."

She was, of course, speaking to her Fennekin. The little fox scampered on over. It seemingly had a bow from a hat caught behind its ear, dragging it and the hat along behind it. Ruby chuckled quietly, detangling her fox. "Stay here for just a moment will you?"

Ruby would dig into her backpack, pulling out the fire starter kit she had specifically brought with her. There were a few sticks scattered about that she casually picked up, trying to get the fire all ready. Sure, she was the Kindler Class, but in truth, she didn't really know how to activate its abilities just yet.

That is, for Faye to immediately get distracted again as it bounced on over towards the Sobble. It tilted its head a bit, as if curious about the incredibly shy Pokemon. Unfortunately, it also had absolutely no sense of personal space.
