The little girl jumps up and down excitedly at the Adult Attention.
"Ooh ooh! I know this! It was really big! And sort of... round! And it had arms like..."

David Kid Jr. glares down at his giggling sister, which only seems to further increase her glee. He sighs.
"It wasn't our licenses, just mine. She wasn't even there!
She was right about bits of it though? I didn't get a good look at the thing because it just kind of knocked me over, started going through my stuff and then ran off as soon as I woke up, but it was kind of vaguely circular if you don't count the hair. And limbs.
Didn't see it knock down any trees but it was strong enough to put me out before Frankie could even react."
The kid scratches the back of his head in embarassment.
"Not that... that's a particularly stunning feat...
It took my trainer license, my backpack and my hat, but then left the food and shiny coins it had shaken out of my jacket pockets. Honestly have no idea what it was after. Did any of that help?"

"Hello there? Do you need help with anything? You look a little unwell, I thought you were going to pass out there or something..."
