[Given the field, and edge of a forest just within sight, it could be guessed that Turo was somewhere within Cosmo Conservatory on Eltrut; sitting there in the tall grass as a bit of fog forming could also be seen. Those who remembered his plushie announcement could likely spot both familiar creatures vaguely there and- well.
A lively nest just within the hollow of a fallen tree; the eggs no longer eggs.]
I am happy to announce that there are now several hatched Cloud Hoppers, healthy, with a proud set of parents just as lively and active-
[—and that was a bark, followed by the sound of something loping in and half knocking into Turo from behind, the strange looking dog popping up with paws over his shoulders and panting. Head tipped so one eye was on the shellphone and the light indicating the camera was on. A bright set of feathers behind those ears bobbing a little with all of the movement.]
-and I suppose my new friend wishes to introduce herself. Has anyone here happened to have see a dog like this before?
[As said dog deliberately flopped right into his lap, tail wagging; something perhaps a little odd in how one eye remained focused sharply still on the shellphone.]
A pack of them seem to have been exploring the sanctuary grounds, peacefully at least. She is the only one to have broken off from them. I must admit that some of their markings remind me of a creature from my home region.
[...was— did the dog just huff out a small curl of fire?]

There was a bark from where Mariposa had settled, tail wagging slowly-]
Ah, yes. We have a few dogs here already; rescued from an island from a cruel owner if I recall- and it seems as if the pack Mariposa here is from will be hanging around. They are rather interesting.
There were quite a few dog-like pokémon in Paldea, so perhaps I am somewhat partial myself. Mariposa and the others of her kind remind me a little of one known as Houndoom, that also are capable of breathing fire.

Worked with a few hunting dogs back in the day and picked up a wolf that I had to return to his owner later after they were reunited. I've a cat and a little owl now, but I have considered taking in another dog from time to time...
But being busy as I am, I feel I can't quite make the commitment just yet.

[Watching Wendy, along with his own Bunger Chipotle, and of course Dojima's Strabby Ichigo.
Mariposa perked up, those attached feathers moving as ears flicked against them. Leaning as she moved, sniffing at the offered hand. A warm sort of snuffling against the palm in greeting after.]
She did my entire rounds with me, so it appears that perhaps her kind have a natural friendliness to them. The rest of the pack found those other dogs and got them up and playing, so they do not mind other animals.
You would be welcome to come by just to visit them if you wished, when not so busy.
no subject
I may just consider it should I need a breather or around the area.
no subject
She felt much warmer than a normal animal should be, but perhaps that had to do with the fact she could produce fire.]
It is rather peaceful around here, after all. A reason I do some of my work here, when it does not require a lab, but more reading.
no subject
So I can see. Perhaps next time I'll have a proper look just to know about it. But I appreciate your invitation and for telling me your story.

Turo nodded, notebook he'd had tucked just in the crook of an arm.]
You are welcome to at any time- and thank you for listening as well.
🎀
Well, he has plenty of projects to work on right now, anyway.]
