[Rasha the Haunter really doesn't understand what his trainer is doing. She's been acting strangely all day--she left the light on in her room all last night, even while she slept, hasn't touched her Gear at all, and hasn't taken any of them out of town to train. Even when Ari and Vicky started growling at each other, she didn't put Ari in his Pokeball like she usually does when they fight.

So he's taking it upon himself to do what he thinks is staging an intervention. Or playing a trick, it could go either way with him--he's stolen Ziva's Gear, and is floating along behind her as she walks towards the bridge in front of Sprout Tower.

...thing is, he's not so good with the camera, so it's pointing at the ground for most of the trip. But when she stops, it focuses properly--she's standing at the edge of the water, saying weird complicated things and throwing bits of bread that she's taken from her pockets into the water.

...well, the Magikarp probably appreciate the free lunch, at least. Once her pockets have emptied, Ziva turns--and sees her 'Gear clutched in one of her Haunter's hands. Sigh.]

Rasha. Give that here.

Well, tradition is very useful for lending dignity to the observer. In my opinion, at any rate.

[Oh you dog. Ziva sees what you're doing--and it's getting a bit of her evil side out.]

Is that so. And here I was thinking that you were merely flattering me.

[He smirks.]

Clearly I'm not trying hard enough, if you can attach a 'merely' to it.

[Hah.]

I'd suggest you do not try too hard--you just might come off as desperate. That would be a shame.

I don't know, sometimes desperate works for me. But, you're right. For now, I'd much rather just listen to you talk.

[Oh you.]

And such a handsome and charming man must resort to desperation? Such a shame.

[He obviously thinks he's handsome and charming anyway. Ziva's not denying the former, certainly.]

I don't think of it as resorting, per se. Pressing whatever advantage of I can find, perhaps. Using my resources.

[He smiles, letting some of his hair fall in his face.]

If you think it's such a shame, maybe you can do something to help me.

And what exactly did you have in mind?

Well, buying you a drink might be a good confidence boost for me.
