Aside from a broad smile and a little wave offered to the arriving Rowlet (well, and the occasional moment taken to actually work on eating her way through her lunch), Anastasia listened attentively while Rhyssa spoke. She wasn't actually sure what 'like Johto' meant (not constantly in danger of being swallowed whole by the wilderness, like Sinjoh, maybe?), but still politely, even enthusiastically nodded--particularly when Rhyssa went into the story of how she'd met her Rowlet, which Anastasia didn't feel sort-of-lost regarding.
"Oh wow, that's--that's really impressive!" Rhyssa had painted a fairly clear picture with her words, after all. "I can't imagine doing something like that here, with the forest being all... you know." Inhospitable. "But yeah, he's got really gorgeous feathers! They're not usually like that, then? That color, I mean." The Eevee she realized had an unusually-colored coat, but Ana wasn't so knowledgeable what constitutes normal for the other species.
"Do you just have the two, or...?"
She tentatively extended a hand towards the Rowlet--slowly, non-threateningly--with two half-curled fingers offered for inspection; and, if it reacted favorably to that, and subsequently allowed her, smoothed the backs of those fingers down along its chest.
