I never knew you, but I am not like you

[Ever since their trip to the Chura Islands, Alice has been wanting to go back and check it out some more. Pretty easy when half your team has Fly, it turns out! So you can find her on Crabrawler Coast, where she lays some coins on the mystery altar.]

I know this isn't your altar, Lord Dome, but I hope you can hear me anyway. It's been a long time, and --

[She pauses, notices you, turns a bit too far, and then turns back.]

Oh, hi! You're here too?

[Later, at Drakhari Bay, Alice is eagerly watching the Drakhari swim around, and she writes in her notebook as Shellock seems to be talking to one. She'll wave if she notices you.]

Isn't this fascinating? This place reminds me of something a friend from Hoenn used to talk about.

[She'll be back on Ohritori by nightfall, at her lab, which is officially done building and open for business. There's a sign out front now, announcing that anyone can come in if they need help with research or just to talk to Alice and her crew!]

Well, they've never kicked me out! It's nice to sit there and just watch everything go on.

Huh, what was it like? The food I mean.

[domeinion]

Better than my cooking, but that really isn't saying much at all. Most of what I make ends up a burned mess.

[There's a sympathetic look from X. He remembers the burned bento.]

Wait, so did they take money there? ...I guess they would need it to keep the cafe running.

[domeinion]

It makes sense when I think about it. I've definitely sent my team out on errands with money, at least.

I'll have to check the cafe out with my team. I'm sure they would enjoy that, and it's something I could talk to about my friends back in Kalos. That's if they believe me about this place.

[domeinion]

I wonder if our friends might come here someday? I'm sure most of them could at least use the break.

[closedbond]

If they do...I hope they're here when they're not in the middle of something important. I don't like the thought of seeing them upset.
