[Anasui rolls his eyes. Even if he wasn't warm with his thick layer of feathers, he wouldn't be caught dead in those pelts. They weren't exactly easy on the eyes.]
I don't care. We can do the Gumshoos first. But when we get back to the Zangoose, see if you can pull the Zangoose on my back and slump it over. I should be able to carry it by myself if you do.
O-oh. [ That pierces through him like an arrow. Please, Anasui. Function over form.
Anyway, the bodies. He goes to hover over the one furthest away, nudging it first with one of his paws before looking deeper into the forest. ] Let’s take them a few paces that way, then? We can dig a hole for all three, while we’re at it. I don’t think it should take too long.
[ With that, he lifts up the Gumshoos by the neck to start dragging it along. ]
[Tell that to his mini-skirt and thigh-high boots. Function will follow form if form slays enough.
Anyways, yes, the bodies. Anasui nods and picks up the other Gumshoos with his mouth, not unlike how a cat would carry her young. It's a little heavy but Anasui manages to carry it without too much trouble. He follows Laios, neutral as ever to their work.
He'll follow Laios to wherever the other man deems is a good enough place to start digging. Once there, Anasui will start using his talons like a shovel and start slowly clawing at the dirt.]
[ Anasui would be disgusted by a modern-day Laios. Nothing but red t-shirts and beige khakis for this man.
With the Espathra following his lead, and both Gumshoos now in tow, he heads beyond the outer border of the Canopy, deeper into the forest until the foliage starts to grow thick. His nose twitches, the scent of familiar turf now mostly overtaken by the wilds. Here would be as good a spot as any.
As they dig, Laios remains alert, head lifting every so often to scan their surroundings for any more wild Pokemon out there. The recent rains may have put most in hiding, but one can never be too sure. When the first part of the job is complete and they start to head back for the last, Laios glances up at Anasui to speak, quietly. ]
Most wouldn’t be too comfortable [ or big enough ] to do this. It’s good we got paired together.
[Anasui is incredibly superficial. He would have hated Laios (at least initially) if he met him in a human form.
But he didn't. He's met him in unusual circumstances where Laios has proven himself to Anasui - twice even! So instead of rolling his eyes and spitting something irate to Laios, the psychic Pokemon just... nods approvingly.]
... Mmm... Not everyone is suited for this sort of thing. It's good there's someone else who can do what's needed around here. I know who to ask next time something like this happens.
That's true. I suppose I can't really blame them, though. Even just fighting can be hard to get used to.
[ He matches that nod of approval with the smallest of tail wags. Disassembling aside, he honestly doesn't see why people might feel so apprehensive around Anasui. He just takes his work seriously! Nothing wrong with that! In a way, he's just appreciative that there's someone around here with the same line of thinking. Doing what's needed — Laios couldn't agree more. ]
I'll help get that Zangoose ready. Hopefully it's not too much of a hassle for you to carry.
They'll learn. And we'll cover them until they do.
[Anasui's glad that some people can be delusional sensible enough to see the bigger picture. Again, it's good to have reliable people around. If he didn't before, Anasui fully trusts Laios now.]
Should be fine. Let's go get it already. [Anasui says, with a bit of a smirk as they head back.]
