[The tiny black bead eyes and brown round head of a Sentret fills Asami's gear screen, before it's pulled back to reveal Korra's grinning face bent over the Pokemon. She's holding it in her lap, and she's changed into the clothes in her backpack.]
Look who joined us today! He doesn't have a name yet, but I think I'm getting the hang of this Pokemon thing.
[She's settled down for the night now, perfectly at ease camping out, even in the chill. Iqniq had a fire lit for them in no time.]
[ Asami's lying on her hotel bed, chin in hands and feet resting on her pillow when Korra's call comes in. She can't help a smile. She could honestly be content just watching Korra goof off with her newest addition. ]
Don't collect too many, you lose track pretty fast.
[ Says the girl with... four. ]
It's the same. Ecruteak is one of the quieter cities. Lots of art.
[ Asami's Flaafy comes over to settle next to her, instantly causing the side of her hair to stand up with static. This is so normal by now that she doesn't really mind. Especially with the current distraction. Korra's really here... ]
But I need to get started on being a champion Pokemon trainer! Gotta have Pokemon.
[Despite her grin and her teasing, easy words, there's something in Korra's eyes that's a little wistful. It's just the physical distance between them.]
Sounds nice. Cultural. I should be getting into Cherrygrove tomorrow, I've been taking...
[She can't help it. Her words are lost in a sudden spat of laughter as Asami's hair sprouts a frizzy halo. Is that one of those electric sheep she's been told about?]
[ That brought another little smile to Asami's face. Of course Korra wants to be the best. ]
[ She gets distracted at the outburst. ]
Wh...?
[ That's when she feels the tickle of her hair on her cheek and awkwardly lifts a hand to feel that a good portion of her hair is clinging to her Flaafy's wool. ]
Hey-
[ Asami can't help blushing as she makes an attempt to smooth her hair out. Unfortunately, as long as Flaafy is hanging out, there's nothing to be done for it. ]
She's so cute! You both are. [Blushing and desperately trying to tame her static-touched hair, Asami looks ridiculously kissable right now. Korra's been taking a slower pace than need be, to get a feel for this world and not tire Iqniq out, but it's time to speed things up.]
Is that one of those... Marpeeps? The lightning sheep somebody was telling me about.
[ Asami shoots Korra an amicably indignant glare. ]
This is a Flaafy. She's what you get when Mareep evolves. Pokémon do that, when they get more experienced. They change form completely and become more powerful.
Oh yeah, someone was telling me about evolution. And what I get to look forward to with Iqniq!
So are you guys just traveling around and seeing the world, or are you doing anything specific? I've been hearing a lot about Gym Challenges and stuff.
[And both seem like good things to do around here.]

She... does that.
