[ Jinx hugs Blanca the moment that Razor calls everything off. ... This is only going to get worse. ]

Razor... you have to support her in her fights, but you can't fight them for her. She wants to grow strong, but she can't do it without you.

I know it's hard at first, believe me. But they're all more capable than we thought they were.

[ Despite her distress earlier, her voice is steady and clear. This can't happen again. ]

I can help you with this, but you have to help her how she wants to be helped.

[After the small snack, Pup is looking better, and Riolu is back at her side, so at least there's that. Razor, on the other hand, seems more unsure than ever, though he finds himself looking up at Jinx for guidance.]

Want to help. Want her to be strong. [With a deep breath like a sigh, he looks down again, and pats both of his pups' heads.] I... am the weak one. Must train harder.

[ Blanca floats over to Pup's side once Jinx releases her. She's truly sorry, she hadn't realized the circumstances- but the rockruff did great with all odds against her.

Quietly, Jinx crouches beside him, idly petting the closest of the pups. ]

We can have them train together. You can learn about their capabilities alongside them, support them. The Gear- it can tell you. There's a way to get it to read what it says out loud, so you'll know.

I- I'm sorry this happened. I didn't realize... ... I never wanted to hurt Pup. But I also know she wants to do this.

But Razor? It takes a lot of strength to be able to say you did wrong, and want to change. So don't forget that, okay?

[Pup licks Blanca's face as happily as before, no hard feelings! In fact, her tail is wagging in excitement from how strong Blanca really is! She may be little, but she's tough!

Razor is still unsure, but tries to take Jinx at her word. The Riolu blinks up at Jinx happily through the pets, and pats Razor's arm in turn.]

Okay. Sorry... Made you worry.

[ She doesn't mention that she had assumed that he'd gotten through his block about battles while they were separated- that maybe he had seen her starting to train her pokémon more and had adjusted. He doesn't need to feel worse. If anything, she's mad at herself for not paying more attention. This could have been avoided.

At least Blanca and Pup are still getting along. Pup will grow! And then they'll be able to do even more, together! ]

You did! But we know better now. ... I know Pup's been wanting to actually battle for a while now- that's why I kept going, because I wanted to take her seriously. But neither of you are allowed to put me in that situation again- play's not supposed to hurt like that. Got it?

[ Later, she's going to activate text to speech for him, at the very least. ]
