the chatot made for an unexpected sight, cait having noticed the presence of its gaze some hours into their work. it peered down at her from a high up perch, and she originally opted to ignore it altogether. the bird would likely maintain its distance from both herself and her hefty companions after all. but it appeared to be unperturbed by the combined presence of her pokemon, relocating itself closer with each hour that came and went.
cait eventually shifted the entirety of her focus toward the bird when it had boldly situated itself upon a perfectly intact postal box several meters away, its dark eyes fixed upon her.
"hello?"
she hazarded a greeting, a surge of curiosity prompting her to do so. it cocked its head to the side in reaction before echoing the word.
"hel-lo."
the young woman blinked and was suddenly reminded that chatot possessed a tongue that had been confirmed to be no different from a human's.
'it can talk,' she thought.
"hello," she repeated.
"hello," it replied.
the corners of her lips tugged upwards into a smile as she tentatively made her approach. she wondered if it had a half-decent grasp on human language and decided to test out its competency for the duration of its stay.
"what's your name?"
she spoke slowly and the pokemon appeared to consider her words, its head cocking from side to side.
"what's your name," it repeated. "cha-tot."
its little chest puffed up after it had formulated a sensible reply, the pokemon appearing to take pride in its intelligence.
"good," she praised, nodding her head. "very good."
what followed was a extended exchange between the pair, cait delighting in the bird's presence and compelling it to perch itself upon her offered arm. it favored her shoulder soon enough and the pair would press onward with their somewhat halted conversation; their faces alight as they enjoyed one another's company.
