========== WRITTEN TEST ==========

"Hey... New, are you?"

The Purrloin and Seviper stop as they hear this question. They turn to see a pretty Servine leaning against a wall, her snout down so that her hat shades her eyes from the bright afternoon sun. "Hmm, stupid question. ’Course you are, I saw you sign in. Admittedly I'm not great with this meet and greet stuff, so how about exchanging names to start things off? You first."

The Purrloin seems a bit confused by this sudden prompt, but the Seviper quickly heads over to meet this inquirer. “Hi there! I’m Kochak!” His fanged mouth spreads into a wide grin as he answers the Servine’s question. He turns his head towards his partner as he calls, “Hey! Casel! Come here!”

The Purrloin walks over to stand beside his partner. ”Hmm, Casel, is it?” The Servine asks with an indifferent manner. The Purrloin nods lightly and responds, “Yes. I’m Casel.” He still seems a bit wary of this stranger. "Ahh, that's great. Yeah, when you said your name just then, it had that... that ‘zing’. It means you're serious about this, yeah? As for me, my name's Teresa. I'm what you'd call a Guild Assistant, which makes me your Serperior." she responds with a grin.

“Ha ha! Great joke!” The Seviper laughs as he responds. Teresa just barely blushes and grins as she says, "You know, you don't have to be so polite. I don't really care about rank and file, but I do care about honesty. If I tell a joke and it sucks, feel free to roll your eyes." The Seviper shakes his head and says, “No, it was good!” He keeps grinning.

Teresa grins again and asks, “So what brings you here, anyway? You from out of town, or...?" The Seviper grins wider and replies, “I came here to join the Explorers! Ever since I heard about them I’ve wanted to!” His eyes fill with awe and determination. “Luke is so awesome. I want to be as good as him someday!”

“And what about you?” Teresa questions, facing Casel. The Purrloin turns his head away as he says quietly, “…no reason.” Teresa seems a bit curious. Not wanting to offend Casel, she asks, “Touchy subject, eh?” The Purrloin does not respond.

Still seeming a bit curious, the Servine says, "Cool, cool... Well, whatever the case, you've got a name in mind for your group, right? I didn't get a chance to check your papers, but I do want to get more familiar with our rookie members when I have the time. I'm kinda new to this whole assistant thing, honestly."

Kochak seems happy that Teresa is interested in their Team and replies, “We’re Team Celestral!” Teresa cocks her head and says, “Don’t you mean ‘Team Celestial?’” The Seviper responds by shaking his head and saying, “No, we’re Team Celestral. Lotsa Pokémon think we’re Celestial. But we’re Celestral.” His smile still goes unwavering, even through Teresa’s mistake.

“Team Celestral.”  The Servine grins. "There's that "zing" again. Feels good to know we've got Pokémon like you joining our Guild. I guess Cassidy wasn't exaggerating when he said the standouts just keep pouring in. Just don't get cocky - confidence is good, but overconfidence in a dungeon is a quick way to get yourself in trouble, along with everyone else in your party."

They nod, Kochak’s nod far more obvious than Casel’s slight nod. “You got that right,” Kochak agreed seriously. “Of course,” was Casel’s response.

Teresa seems to remember something and asks, "Oh right, this is very important - why did you want to become an Explorer, hm? Just curious..." Kochak grins wide again and says, “Luke has always been my idol. I want to be strong like him and my brother.” Casel says with a careful manner, “I joined because Kochak wanted me to.” He cocks his head slightly and asks, “Why is it important?” The Servine seems a bit embarrassed as she responds, “I’m supposed to ask all rookies these questions. Part of being a Guild Assistant, I guess.” Casel nods. “Ah, I see.”

Teresa seems to notice something behind them and begins talking faster than usual. "...Because ultimately, the people come first, yeah? There's lots of food in the dungeons, and materials for clothing and medicine! When we go out and find that stuff, it means everyone here gets to have dinner. I mean, you know that, obviously, but just don't forget!"

Casel and Kochak seem a bit caught off guard by this minor outburst. “Y-yeah.” Kochak stammers. “O-of course.” Casel responds, a bit confused.

The Servine clears her throat.  "N-not to sound standoffish, but what exactly do you do, anyway? What skills or talents do you have to offer the Guild? Everyone's good at something, I think."

“Uh, we-”  “Um-”

Teresa quickly interrupts. "I can just feel it, you do what you do and do it with everything you've got. 'Cause in this guild, when a giver gives, then the giver gets... gotten... gets give-- eh, well you get what you give, or something. Whatever, it's written down on that big plaque in the Guild hall. Just do your best and come see me if you need any help."

The Servine walks briskly away. She turns back, giving them a little wave. She goes quickly to another group of new recruits nearby, no doubt asking them the same questions. The life of a Guild Assistant must be a busy one.
