Three
[Fighting and weather chaos seem to have given way to...new arrival chaos instead. Unless someone shows up from her world, Raven'll be steering clear of the New Feathers given half an opportunity, at least until they know more about what's going on.
No, today she's taking steps toward all the things she made tentative plans about. First, to the flower shop and the item shop, looking for seeds that might result in food that could restore Rune Magic. Or a certain special kind of blue flower, one she's not likely to find until the fall - but she'll look, for the flower and the seeds.
Then she swallows her weird mix of fear-pride and goes back to the smithy. Time to ask about work. Now that her arm has healed and she's gotten a little practice in again, making accessories doesn't sound bad at all. Whoever is around in there will see her awkwardly stare at the building for several minutes before going inside to stare in a similar fashion at them.
Next comes an early dinner at Seventh Heaven, and that's where she lays out the journal and a small bag of somethings and speaks a message.]
I want to talk to some of you. I'm at the restaurant. [A very long pause.] Do all worlds have monsters?
[[ooc: Basically, if you had a moment with Raven thus far since she's been here, she made you something while she was getting herself back into accessory-crafting shape. Anyone can run into her (literally, if you wish) as she wanders around the village and tries to eat dinner in peace.]]

You grew fast.
action
He evolved during the draft. [Because Chien was stupid. It's still biting at him, to be honest, but he won't say a word about it.] Which means he got stronger is all, before you ask.
action
Then she reaches into her bag and holds out her closed fist in Chien's direction.]
action
a boxhis PokéDex. It's kind of special.]action
It's a shield ring. It's supposed to protect you. [She looks around the restaurant, then down at Soren.] I don't know if that magic works here.
action
It might. I mean, a ton of different things work here, so it could. Um... [What is gratitude.]
action
[Meaning no thanks are strictly necessary. But she did sort of try to think of who might want the things she made.]
action
So you made things like this back home? [Kind of impressed. He can't imagine being able to make anything.]
action

action
[It's relaxing. Sometimes the challenge isn't frustrating.]
I would make something for Soren. [Look she's smiling at the bird again. No one ever sees her smile if they don't know her.]
action
He'd like that a lot. I think he's pretty jealous he didn't get anything too. [Soren'll probably bring her something too as a gift in return, like a bag of bakery goods or something for her hair from the item shop.] Protection though, huh? From what?
action
I'm not used to making accessories for...pokémon. [Since Silver isn't around to hear her.] Protection from anything you fight.
action
I think he'd be fine with something around his neck, or his legs. [And protection from anything he fights sounds good, considering his plans for the later week.] Alright.
action
He got this big all at once?
action
Uh huh. That's how Pokémon evolve, I guess. I saw one do it during a battle once and he got really big. Soren's a bigger eater now too.
action
[The blush that follows this statement clashes with her coat and her hair.]
...I'm working in at the blacksmith's now. When I finish his gift I'll let you know.
action
We'll come by and pick it up when you do. Is it fun making things like this?
action
[She's a bit too big to nest with you, Soren. Also she is not looking at you and thinking about nesting.]
action
I'll bet it is. And I don't think we have anyone else like that here too, so you're pretty much the only crafter.
action
...We're here. Do you want to eat something?
action
... What do you suggest I try? It all looks really good, and the last time I was here was... a long time ago. I don't even remember what I had.
[Soup or sandwich or something from Azusa. It was delicious.]
action
Here. [Have this menu thing to look over.]
action
This, and Soren'll have... [Hmmm. Chien lets it down for him to see, and after a moment the bird chirps "Bread!"] Seriously? I would've thought you wanted something... Nevermind, he'll just take bread.
action
What do birds like Soren eat in the wild?
