[Reid smiles as he takes them, then hang them on the neck of his vest for future use.] Thanks.
[He looks back up at the question, then glances over at the PokeBall holding Amanda, sitting innocently on the bedside table.] I don't intend to. She's not an animal; she's a human soul. I wouldn't feel right keeping her in a ball.
[He finally gets Flora off his face, bringing her down to cradle her in his arms. Elle starts pawing him for more petting, and then he absently starts petting her head. These animals are lucky they're soft and pleasant to touch, or else he'd never be able to stand so much contact.] That being said... I, uh, I think sharing one mind and body with a person makes me know them pretty well, and I'm not sure if she'll want to leave. She feels remorse for damaging my body, even if she didn't know it wasn't hers, and ever since she died, she's been looking for a sense of normalcy, and I guess she wants a purpose now that she has no life to lead. [He chews on his lip, glancing out the window.] I'm not sure if I could really bring myself to force her into leaving if she didn't want to go.
[Hey, hey, the Pokemon don't think this is a good idea. They will make this very clear by all simultaneously looking up and glaring pointedly at him.]
