Noemi was excited and it showed. She about bobbed in the air, mask held in tail as usual as she turned this way and that, taking in the sights. She was not only absolutely stoked to meet new people, as it had felt like forever since she'd known anyone outside of the hospital until Clarence showed up, but doubly so that her nervous little friend had agreed to come along too. The phantump was staying close to her, all but glued to her back and looking around with a more nervous, shy, and worried air than one of excitement. Noemi turned, petting at her friend, cooing comforts to him before turning to look out at the place again.

Today, she was sure, was going to be a great day.

It was, so far, a good day; it was, so far, a good trip. Though Clarence had gone by boat from Alola to Unova, it was the first time he'd gone from Unova to Alola by sea. Since he was traveling with two ghost-types without pokeballs, sea had been the only option (for safety's sake; ghost-types often affected nearby electronics, even on accident) but the S.S. Anne was an exceptionally comfortable craft, and they'd had a nice time... and time to make some progress in proving to Noemi's friend neither she nor he would be caught.

Now they were walking the edge of Paniola Town, an odd little quartet to anyone who didn't notice how Clarence's shadow shifted independently of the light. One young man with glasses, hair that could be cut, and a light windbreaker on but open, a small sheet ghost, a yamask, and an uneasy phantump hovering over his shoulders. "I think we're getting close. It's---oh, that white house with the enormous bushes in front. That's it! Who wants to knock?"
