"Mis..."
"Mel..."
Misdreavus and Meloetta looked at the egg that had suddenly appeared on the ground, then turned in unison toward the sleeping Dian.
"Mis!"
Misdreavus waved her little hands. She could testify that this man had mentioned laying eggs several times, so this egg had to be his.
"Mel?"
Meloetta tilted her head. Could humans lay eggs?

Misdreavus sighed. What a boring mystery. She floated onto her mount's head and lazily surveyed her surroundings.
"Mel..."
Meloetta, meanwhile,
