[The crack of dawn is around that hour when Ishimaru isn't really awake, but he's doing a fine job at pretending to be. Thankfully he doesn't actually have work this early, but that doesn't mean that he doesn't have other things to take care of - securing food for at least himself and his brother is one of them, and he'll often do so for the others as well in case they want it, and for the time being they are out of various essentials (it's only been four days, guys, can we stop eating all the things) and that is not going to be satisfactory. Even if a fair amount of places are not open at ugly o'clock in the morning, Ishimaru knows of a few that are, and he's currently trying to remember exactly where they're located when there is a...
...procession, apparently, on the next block over. What in the world.
He catches the end of it just out of the corner of his eye, but that's more than enough to get him to follow; it takes him a moment to make up for the delay but at least he manages eventually, though the reason all these Pokémon are just kind of clustered around this random shop is nowhere to be seen. Surely this is the work of a trainer, and whatever it is they're doing it's highly disruptive even if it is stupid o'clock and no one in their right mind is even awake and somebody is getting a talking-to.
...And then all of that goes right out the window because of course it does.
It takes him a moment to process what he is seeing (other than "an Archen being christened or something", because that much is completely obvious, right) but that...that certainly is Alice up there, isn't it.
...what the ever-loving christ, Alice, you are going to do his head in one day...]
Alice-san!
[His voice is more than loud enough to carry over any subsequent ingonyama nengw' enamabala going on over there; it occurs to him after the fact that possibly startling her might not be the smartest idea he's ever had, but uh...he can cross that bridge if they come to it.]

You really shouldn't be up there, you know!
