11th Spell: [Video/Action for Union Cave]
[The gear clicks on in steady hands, focusing directly on Twilight's face. She checks it out a moment before nodding in satisfaction.]
Looks good, Starswirl. Make sure to keep it recording so I can review this later.
[She clears her throat and goes into scientist lecture mode.]
Date: September the Seventh by Johto's Calendar.
Location: Outside Union Cave, Azalea Town entrance. Preparing to re-enter the cave.
Experiment: In order to test the effectiveness of the Repel item sold in the shops, I wore the fragrance through the Cave and am now going to return into it as the item has worn off. I will document the difference in the frequency of encounters and use this data to determine a rough estimate of the effect. Further experiments may be necessary depending on my results.
The experiment begins now. Come on, Starswirl.
[She turns and heads inside the cave, walking along at a sedate pace. Soon enough there's the sound of wings flapping.]
Hmmm, we seem to have Pokemon already. Well that's a fairly large difference in and of itself.
Wait, just how many of them are-
[She's cut off with a shriek as a Zubat flies by, and another buzzes the gear. Starswirl quickly drops the gear and goes to help his trainer, causing the image to drop to the ground and start showing nothing but rock. Before the gear shuts off, Twilight shouts:]
It's in my hair! It's stuck in my haiiiiiiir!
[It clicks off after that.
A few minutes later, the gear clicks on again, showing a very grumpy Twilight sitting outside the cave with a bandage on her face and her hair looking like it just went through a wind tunnel. One full of various debris.]
Conclusion: There is no need for further study. The item clearly works, and works very well.
Also, a personal note here.
I hate Zubat.
Can't believe I had to catch the rotten thing to get it out... [She mutters a few more inaudible things as she switches the gear back off. Well, no one ever said scientific research was easy.]

... I think I heard a story like that once, actually.
[Danananananana Batmare!]

I'd simply question their sanity.
[video]
Then again, with her it would be a lot less "swarming" and a lot more "gently nestling on her" after a few moments.
[video]
I don't believe I've met this person you're talking about. Does she have some sort of particular affinity for animals?
[video]
[video]
[THIS FLUTTERSHY MUST BE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH...]
[video]
You have no idea. I'm extremely grateful to have her around. Even if she does make me worry sometimes.
[video]
[video]
Do you have any friends like that? People who you can rely on here in Johto?
[video]
[what is friendship, is it something you can use as a mystic code]
[video]
Because if so you can totally use it to beat up chaos spirits with rainbows. That counts, right?]
Well, there's definitely a lot to be said for self-sufficiency. But having someone you can trust along with you, well... Personally, I can't recommend it enough.

[early mornings
shirtlessness
exercise]
He has some irritating habits.
[video]
Oh, I know the feeling. I'm pretty sure, when it comes down to it, that we all have habits some people would find irritating. But you know... sometimes that can be part of the charm, once you get used to it.

[Rainbow might wake up early to train too, but somehow Twilight doubts it.]
Why does he want you to join him, anyway?
[video]
[...Kayneth, you're just out of shape, man...]
[video]
This sounds like something that really warrants some serious discussion between you two. He clearly just wants to help, maybe he's genuinely worried about you. But if he doesn't understand how you feel about it, he's going to be the opposite of helpful. Who knows, you might end up actually being able to put that particular habit to constructive uses.

[...aside from the whole shirtlessness thing, um]
[video]
... I imagine that isn't incredibly easy.
[Just as well not to mention that to her. Her reaction would be an incredibly aggravating "so?"]
[video]
It's not easy at all. I can find ways to avoid it, at least, so that does help. Nevertheless...
[...well, he'll just sigh in frustration. That pretty much sums up his feelings on the matter...]
