Lemondrop did a full-body shake as she was placed back down on the ground. She smiled slightly, mostly in relief, and looked at the Jolteon with a smirk. "[Good to know.]"

The jolteon wrinkled its nose, a faint buzz was heard as his static fur was sprinkled with the medicinal liquid. He sneezed a bit, seemingly having got some of it on his snout, recovering with a sniffle and followed with another yawn, obviously still sleepy.
Bount remained silent, his face turned towards the pikachu, though his hat still obscured if he was looking at it or not, though it could be assumed he was.
Austrays had opened her eyes once more, but she didn't say a word as she let out a screech, taking to the skies again for her patrol. It seemed she had gotten tired of just sitting about, and her paranoia was creeping at her to check for any danger near the clearing.

Lemondrop cocked her head to the side as she watched the Jolteon, and after a moment she looked from him to his trainer and back. "[You're not a very lively bunch, are you?]"

Zap let out another long yawn, arching his back and popping his rear in the air as he streched, an arc of electricity ran through his fur as he shook afterwards. "[We just like to relax.]" He then swayed his head for a moment, in tune with the ambience music that still played from the headphones on the human's head, "[Besides, how can you be anxious with this great music!]" His exclamation was followed by a happy bark. The human's hand extanded towards the Jolteon, giving him a pat on the head and what seemed to be the faintest smile spread across his lips. Though Zap tilted his head at the pikachu, now curious, "[So I'm guessin' Austrays let you close? Name's Zap.]"

"[I'm Lemondrop,]" she replied as her tail began to flick to the beat of the music. ""

Zap frowned a bit, his head still tilted as he blinked his large alien black eyes, "[Ouch... Bummer.]" His snout twitched as he gave a half second to ponder, seeming somewhat more on time than his trainer, who was currently shuffling through his pack, but not by much. "[Hm... Any chance they'll be lookin' for ya' soon?]" Zap asked, still soemhow unsure of the little thing. Especially considering Austrays let it zap Bount without pummeling it into the ground.

Lemondrop frowned. "" As she spoke the words her voice dwindled to a self-conscious mutter. She had no idea how long it would take Tunes to notice she was gone; she was sure the girl would bike all day, and they had both been so sure that she wouldn't fall off, she may not check on her for an hour or so. Besides, now that she was nowhere near where she had fallen, Tunes wouldn't be able to find her anyway.

Zap let out a small hiss of dissapointment, a bit bummed this new Pokémon was basically ditched. He opened his maw to say something, but was soon interrupted as his trainer set down two things on the ground, bowls. Both with food in them. One read "Zap, and he other read "Upbeat" and the "Upbeat" bowl was considerably larger.... Though the food in it was only half that of what was in Zap's bowl, leaving it to conclusion that it was for the small pikachu. Zap's large black glass eyes glistened as he happily barked, dashing for his bowl, "[Ha-ha! Food time!]"

Lemondrop looked at the other bowl in surprise as she realized that it was for her. Her gaze shifted to the trainer, expecting that this was some type of trap. She wasn't expecting... hospitality. Not so quickly. Usually after she shocked someone, people were wary of her. Then again, this guy had a Jolteon, so he was probably used to the occasional shock. She smiled half-heartedly. Maybe he wasn't so bad.
She hopped over to the bowl and climbed inside; it was bit enough that she could comfortably sit in it and eat. She grabbed some of the food and began to eat, leaning against the tall rim of the bowl. Admittedly, eating was just the thing to calm her down a little bit. She was still pretty on-edge, but everything about this trainer and Jolteon were relaxing. It was a nice change: with Tunes, everyone and everyone was way more highstrong. Not that she hated that... She didn't think she could manage to be this low-key all the time. But it was nice for now. She didn't feel like she was racing some kind of clock to find Tunes again.
Then again, maybe that wasn't a good thing.
In the back of her mind was the constant worry that with each passing beat of the music, Tunes was getting farther and farther away and Lemondrop would never catch up. She needed a minute to relax, but then she had to think. Hopefully this mellow, music-inclined trainer's kindness would extend all the way to Goldenrod city, or she was in trouble.
"[Hey, Zap,]" she called, running to the other side of the bowl and leaning over the rim of the bowl at him. "[Do you think you and your trainer could help me get to Goldenrod City?]"

Zap was happily scarfing his food, his ears twitched though as he heard the question. His stub of a tail was happily waggling, but stopped as he looked up from his bowl, tilting his head, "[Huh... Goldenrod? We only just got here. Been kinda aimless!]" he then suddenly realised that Lemondrop was actually sitting in the bowl, which sent him into a fit of laughter and barks. "[Oh man! I can't believe you actually fit in Upbeat's dish! Then again, he's a pretty big guy.]" To which he ended as his head dippied back into the mound of Poke-food. The human had seemed to have found his own dinner, munching on what looked to be a granola bar. He also had a stick in his hand, which was strange since it seemed he'd never stood up to get one. Though he was using to to lightly roast a marshmallow above the licking flames.

Lemondrop scowled as he laughed at her, but she honestly could not be her usual violent self. She grabbed another piece of kibble, ate it in a couple bites, and then looked at Zap again. "[Does your trainer have a map or something?]" she asked.

Zap lifted his head once more form the dish, though this time it was empty. He then looked to the pikachu, sitting back on his haunches as his rear leg lifted to idly scratch the side of his neck, sending out a couple sparks of electricity. Just how much charge did he have though, was anyone's guess with how it seemed to simply roll off him. "[We have a map... Of Kantō...]" He said a bit dejectedly, looking about the clearing, "[We still have yet to find a town. It's been about two weeks.]" His mood seemed to suddenly change as the amience music died down, and the next song over started, a steady beat of bass building up. His eyes shined as he jumped up, "[Oh! I know this song!!!]" He gave a happy bark as he seemed to jog in place, his paws in perfect time with the beat, even as it built faster. Though the human was still unreactive to the music as he pulled back the stick, popping the marshamllow into his mouth and plopping a new one back onto the stick.

Lemondrop's ears twitched impatiently, and as the Jolteon started prancing around like a parade animal she facepalm and slid back into the bowl. "[Great...]" She let out an sigh and grabbed another piece of food, trying to think. How was she supposed to get these guys to go the way she wanted? At least they weren't trying to get anywhere... That worked toward her advantage. If she could just get them to follow her, she wouldn't have a problem.
It was getting and keeping their attention that was going to be the hard part.
But she thought she had an idea. A simple one, but it was a start. And if it didn't work, she'd come up with something else.
She climbed back to the edge of the bowl and leaned against it, dangling her arms over the side as she watched Bount eat by the fire. Nothing was going to get done until she knew that she could get his attention, and with the way this kid acted, she was pretty sure she couldn't compete with food and fire.

Zap let out a happy bark, looking over to the small pikachu, his ears twitching wildly, "[Hey, wanna run with me? It's great after a meal!]" Though to much surprise, the bass was picking up even faster, and some fluxes and procusion were building into it as, similar to the first song that was playing when the pikachu had arrived. Zap's feet were a blur off yellow almost, pattering the grass with his relentles jog in one static spot, waiting for an answer, "[C'mon!! The climax is comin'!]"

"[I'm not much of a run...]" She trailed off as she saw how energetic the Jolteon was. She was probably one of the least annoying Pokémon she had met in a long time, and it seemed kind of pointless to disappoint him, when all she was doing was sitting around, waiting anyway. "[Oh, what the hell. Fine. Just don't step on me.]" She jumped up, bounding out of the bowl and to his side.
