As the younger Pokemon attempted to hunt for food, Araxie decided that this time was best spent in practicing her performance. She may have possessed a voice angelic as the white clouds which adorned planet’s skies, but this Primarina was still some normal Pokemon. Thus a little hours of training never hurt from time and again. Making sure her diaphragm was used properly in this process, the mermaid-like Pocket Monster weaved lyrics upon air currents like a harpist plucking various strings.
♫ “Ⅰ had a dream last night And heard the sweetest sound I saw a great white light And dancers in the round~” ♫
♫ “ᏟᎪᏚᎢᏞᎬᏚ in the sand Cradles in the trees Don’t cry, I’ll see you by and by~” ♫
♫ “ՕᎻ won’t you come with me Where the moon is made of gold And in the morning sun We’ll be sailing~” ♫
♫ “ՕᎻ won’t you come with me Where the ocean meets the sky And as the clouds roll by We’ll sing the song of the sea~” ♫
At this point Araxie had sensed the Popplio’s presence, as his curious splashing and awestruck noises could be heard from MILES away. Nevertheless she kept singing, moving her song to a gentle stop before giving him a small, charmed smile.
“ᎠᎥᎠ you enjoy my little performance there, young one?”
Once the song had come to a complete stop, Special Boy immediately raised his flippers to shower Araxie with applause.
“Oh, yes! Hana hou! Hana hou!”
The clapping of his flippers started rapid, but gradually slowed as it occurred to him that he might have stumbled upon her practicing-- and he knew quite well that sometimes it could be embarrassed to be caught in mid-practice.
“E kala mai! I didn’t interrupt you, did I? I just... I really like your song! Did you make it up yourself?”
