"You sound like my boyfriend," she says with a soft laugh, before blushing, not wanting Ash to take offense. "I mean, it's good to be cautious, but the only people I've seen here have been friends." Of course, the Halloween party was full of friends, too, and Patches managed to sneak in and ruin everything anyway.

Taking a look around, she spots a table with beautifully decorated gingerbread houses. "Oh... that's another Christmas tradition, isn't it? Should we go take a look?" She waits for Ash to come a little closer before admitting softly, "I think Abysa really needs some friends. Taking care of Micolash must be absolutely exhausting."

She turns her attention to Ash's question. "You probably need to head into the Industrial District. They have building materials there. Are you looking to build a home? I've been told you can find a nice vacant one in the residential area if you look around enough."
