[She'll spare him another onslaught of compliments and niceties for now, distracted as she is by his determination. She figures he's on to something -- they're still mostly normal people leading mostly normal lives.]
What do you want to see first? Who do you want to talk to first? It feels like we'll hardly have enough time to fit everything in, we need to start planning now!
[If anything, most of them are leading far more normal lives here than they ever did back in their own worlds!
I--
[Oh no, now Angel has done it. Now Armin has to try and figure out what he goes to see first. Which is terrible on account of there being so much he wants to see and do. And some of it depends on how much of Sinnoh they will let them see. They can visit Eterna city, which already thrills Armin, but what about beyond that? Can they visit other towns? The area around Eterna city?
Lance had sent them some sort of document, but for once, Armin hadn't immediately read it. He'd been too busy running excitedly over to where Angel was.]
I... don't know. We'll have to make a list. Order things based on travel time. We only have two weeks so we should try and minimise time spent travelling as much as we can.
I know there is a museum in Eterna City. I definitely want to see that, so maybe we could start there. I think miss Maya would like to see it too.
We could always start as far out as possible and work our way back to the beginning, too!
[She'll need to start going over every bit of information they have about Sinnoh between them. It's been awhile since she's researched the other regions -- better to not dream of that which she couldn't reach. But she won't let a single moment of this trip go to waste.]
Maya will love the Museum, I'm sure. And I'm sure there will be plenty of shopping to be done, new foods to try. Do you suppose they have local pokemon treats?
[Adorababy, the spoiled creature he is, deserves only the best. That's especially true now that his second favorite person is no longer with them. And Punkface will surely appreciate the treat as well.]
I'm sure they do. It's a different region, after all. They must have their own traditions and ways of doing things.
[Armin sighs. It's not a sad sigh though; it's an absolutely happy, giddy one. Last month was rather... well, it was crap, but right now, none of that matters. Right now, he feels like there is nothing that could spoil his mood.]
[Now that she's fully balanced, and a little more aware of their close proximity, Angel reaches for Armin's hands. There's a flush on her cheeks, but she ignores it for the most part in favor of squeezing his fingers between hers.]
[Armin can feel his cheeks heat up. Suddenly, he is acutely aware of Angel's body right next to his, the way her face is turned up to look at him, her small hands between his own. This close, he can even make out the freckles dusting the bridge of her nose and cheeks.
He can feel his throat go dry and he shouldn't be thinking like this at all, right? Noticing any of this. Angel is a friend, just a friend. She's always been friendly and outgoing with him, always quick to touch. Maybe a bit quicker even, the last month. But, he reasons, that is from Krieg leaving. Sometimes you just need a physical reminder of the people, the friends, that are still here. It doesn't mean anything.]
[It doesn't too long to pick up on the shift in mood. Angel steps back, releasing Armin's hands just as quickly as she had taken them. She'd gotten too eager, come on too strong after a month of moping. She could hardly blame Armin for being surprised.
With her own hands now free, she scratches the back of her neck a little sheepishly. Her gaze drops to the floor as her cheeks flush a faint shade of pink.]
I should start doing my research, right? We can talk more when we have a better idea of what's going on?
[When Angel pulls back her hands, Armin's cheeks got a bit redder. And he is kicking himself mentally. See, it wasn't meant as anything more as friendship. His reaction had made things weird.]
Yeah, that sounds good. I didn't even read the document Lance sent us. [Admitted as if it is the greatest sin. Which it is, to a nerd like Armin.] I was just so excited I wanted to talk to someone immediately. So. I should go read that now.
We can make lists. Things to do in Eterna City and the other areas. And then we can plan from there.
[She takes a step further back into her room. Embarrassed or no, she still looks plenty pleased with the recent developments. Nothing will bring down her sense of adventure.]
Maybe we can even find new Pokemon? Of course, we'll probably have to figure out the best teams to bring. Oh! [She turns, already shuffling around for her Gear. It's time to start planning.]

I wonder... I hope we can visit the Underground.

I'm so excited to see it. Especially with you.
