[Throwing snowballs for her Sentret to chase, Molly's laughing and praising him while her Natu chirps nearby, too little to use her wings to fly and really join in the game. But that stuff doesn't matter so long as everyone is having fun.]
[Which she is, until the door opens to that house she doesn't like at all. She looks up in time to see someone get out of there and to see him release his starter, but then he starts acting weird, so she beckons her Sentret and picks up her bird and goes closer to see what's going on and if he needs help.]
