[archie grins, delighted. exeggutor is delightful! he doesn't seem too bothered by blue's assertion, just snorts.]

He's alright, don't worry. [blue's right, though, and archie's glad that his warning was heeded. that said... he'd assume exeggutor could just psychically incapacitate anyone stupid enough to try and hurt him.] I wasn't doin' anything. I'm past that-- even if I was still trying to complete that plan I had, stealing or hurting Pokémon had never been part of it.

[he takes a few steps back from exeggutor as something of a show of goodwill; as much has he likes the pokémon, blue is clearly uncomfortable with him being close. so he won't be close anymore. simple shit.]

Gettin' to know the island, huh? None of the berries that grow around here are edible, just so you know.
