Cass has the feeling Umlaut's looking at her with indignation, even if he also mostly looks the same as ever. He only turns and starts jumping onward in the cave, which they must have circled several times by now.

At least Umlaut jumping goofily is a good way to cheer Cass up - compared to the way he could jump when he's really out for the shocking moment, this one is really refreshing.

Mr Rime, now nicknamed Joseph - he seems to like it, but there also seems something ... missing - seems to enjoy the silly jumping as well, and joins in with his tapdancing. Both of their goofy performances (willed or not) seems to attract the attention of another pokémon - a Dewgong approaches them curiously. (Oh now that she's not explicitly for ice types, they do seem to show up a lot ... compared to before, at least.)

"Oh, hi there! Sorry if we disturbed you or anything - we'll be on our way soon enough," she greets the pokémon with a smile, kneeling down. It doesn't seem hostile at all, gladly, and even a bit curious at the jumping duo. "Do you wanna try as well?" she asks, before gesturing for Umlaut and Joseph to come a bit closer. "Alright, let's ... what's a catchy tune?" she murmurs. "Oh, how about the PokéDance?"

Admittedly, the dance kind of needs arms and legs, but hey, the tune is catchy enough to just work in her opinion. She sings it a couple of times, doing the dance to the best of her abilities. Umlaut, who's been subjected to it many times because it's her Glimmora Glimmer's favourite tune, joins in quickly (which, frankly, unsettling), while Joseph and the Dewgong take in the unfamiliar tune at first.

It does seem like both ice types and Umlaut, as much as one doesn't really wanna look at him, have a knack for dancing, and she really, really regrets not bringing Eira, her dancing Cufant, too. "Hey, I really think you, too, should meet someone ... if you want?"

She takes a pokéball out, and offers it to the Dewgong - but it'd be up to him of course if he'd take it!
