"... I don't think you are in any condition to move right now, let alone travel." the yellow-headed pixie declared, hovering backwards a bit.
You tried to rise from your perch, putting your elbow down on the rock to help yourself up.
"Hey, I'm feeling better now," you retorted,
"I'm fine, I can handle traveling... I think..."
Uxie's expression didn't change.
"You've narrowly missed your death just last night, human," she bluntly said, fluttering forward and sitting down next to where you were laying,
"You need a lot of rest for the time being."
You remained silent and stared at the giantess, feeling a chill crawl down your spine: those closed eyes of hers seemed to pierce the eyelids, and you as well.
You wondered how she was able to see.
"... Also," Uxie continued,
"The weather around my lake is very frigid. I don't think you'd be able to survive as you are now."
A blush spread through her face as she spoke these words, leading you to believe she was referring to your nudity.
"What?" you asked,
"Then what are we gonna do? If I'm going back with you..."
Uxie offered a small smile.
"For now, you'll just rest in here. We will be staying over for a few days, until your condition improves. Then, we will go to my lake. There, you shall be under my care until we manage to figure out your situation." she explained, extending a paw forward.
To your surprise, a single, tiny finger came down to your head and began running your hair gently.
"Well... thanks I guess..." you replied, smiling at the giant guardian,
"I don't know how I'll ever be able to repay you..."
Uxie blushed, but offered a timid smile.
"There is no need, really." she replied kindly.
Silence fell in between you and the giant pokemon after her latest statement, and it lasted for a few minutes, before Uxie broke it, a pensive look on her face; a thought came to her mind, a thought about how she could take your offer. When would she get the chance to meet another human this small again? It certainly brought some... advantages, and this seemed a nice guy, too,
"... Actually, I'd like to take your offer, if it's not a problem," she suddenly said,
"... There would be one thing you could do for me,"
Despite her flustered behavior, you gave a confident grin.
"You saved my life," you began, feeling enough energy in your legs to get free of your shirt, get back on your feet and approach the titaness,
"... And you're saying you'll take care of me. That's very kind, and it's only fair I do something in return. I'll do anything... anything I can do while like this, of course."
Uxie's fingertips clasped together and her head moved downwards.
"You certainly can. And if you're really sure..." she muttered under her breath, though you were able to understand thanks your more sensible hearing.
"Of course" you replied,
"What do you want me to do?"
Uxie's shown to be very kind so far, she couldn't make any weird requests, no?
... But then, why couldn't you shake off the feeling that something was off about her...?
Upon hearing your affirmative response, Uxie's blush deepened, and her mouth let a long sigh of embarrassment escape.
"Very well, human, you may consider this as a way to pay me back for my aid. A condition, if you prefer," she said.
Your smile waned. The statement left you very perplexed.
"A-A... a condition?" you stuttered,
"Didn't you say you were going to take care of me anyway?"
The flustered giantess looked away for a moment.
"You were the one making such offer," she said,
"And I'm sure you can understand if I... ask something in return, like you said."
You were reminded of your own words, and offered a nod.
"Yeah, you're right," you agreed,
"Go on."
Uxie inhaled deeply.
She couldn't believe what she was going to ask, but this human seemed willing to do as she pleased, eager even.
There was a small percentage he wasn't going to decline her request, but the majority of chances was that he tried to get away as soon as he saw the opportunity.
Still, Uxie gathered enough courage to 'look' back at you and make her request,
