Valorie listened to Mark as he went on, and his apology honestly left her with little to say. It was like he couldn't figure out what he wanted to tell her!
"..."
Did Lucia really approve of him taking the blame for this?? Valorie seemed frustrated by the expression on her face moreso as Mark went on, perhaps because every time she thought up something to say Mark went ahead and corrected himself with whatever was on her mind. After a moment of silence however she finally realized what she wanted.
"Why're you apologizing? That's what trainers /do/." she responded to him, seemingly slightly put off by his sympathy. If the whole point of being a trainer was pokemon battling, then why was he apologizing for it? Quite frankly, she didn't feel as if she would in his shoes. "I just needed to be away." she said casually before realizing that she needed to cover her backside further to prevent suspicion, quickly adding "From my parents." in a once again casual tone. In all honesty, that was a lie at best. She hoped he wouldn't pry for more info however.
