(super fun activity ty for putting in all the effort of making up these questions! despite writing bibi fics i never wrote from her perspective til now so its a change of pace for sure. Just to note, regarding Bibi's speech patterns, I used shortened versions of words much like how someone does when they try and write a country accent, but it's moreso that in relaxed conversations Bibi just doesn't hit the consonants all that hard or enunciate everything super clearly.)

>Bibi subconsciously leans into the hand, the warmth of Vega's touch reminding her of her parents', and her face breaks out into a grin. Without realizing, her voice slips into the same soft lazy patterns she only uses in conversations with friends.

>"Grow strong? I'm already *plenny* strong! But thanks miss, you're really nice, and like suuuper pretty too! I'd love to hear more about what 'the old days' were like so long as I don' hafta remember dates 'n stuff....Miss Raifort could tell you how miserable my history grades are....."

>She begins to scratch her Koraidon's chin affectionately. "It'd be neat to meet that friend of yours! Raising pokemon from other times isn' easy, not all of em are sweethearts like my rairai. Guess I shouldn't be worried since you seem like you can handle yourself but you gotta GOTTA be careful around any wild ones you find!"

>"Hmm, blade?...Oh if you mean rairai, an' the rest of the team I jus' wanna see em do their best, and they want the same for me I think. I....Kinda used to think we were....That *I* was strong 'nough to do anything y'know? Had to learn the hard way that I'm not invincible. Nobody is.....'nd it took me a while t' be okay with that. I'm gonna prove you right and keep on getting stronger, but only so I can keep being the same ol' Bibi my friends rely on, not because bein' strong will grant all my wishes, or stop me from ever gettin' hurt again."

>" 'nd on that note.....Sometimes strength can feel like more trouble than it's worth. It can push people away easy as it draws 'em in.....You ever had to deal with somethin' like that miss?"

>She slips out of her dreamy tone of voice when she realizes something

>"....Ahhh! Wait it was like totally rude of me to go on like that without answering your other questions first, I'm sorry!!!

>"The name's Bibi Montero! You can call me B if you want, my friends use it all the time!"

>"Motto? Mmm well, I guess I've said 'hasta la vistar' a lot lately but that's more my friend's thing than mine! She always gives me a sour look when I do it though, like it somehow sounds wayyyy worse when I do it."

>"It's hard to pick! Sure the treasure hunt had its ups and downs but every moment's meant something to me. Eating good food my friend made for me, meeting a rival who I could go toe to toe with, helping a bunch of my misunderstood classmates, learning about all my buddies quirks and figuring out how to make them shine in battle......But, I guess opening my eyes for the first time and seeing everyone safe and sound after we got caught up in a big mess was probably the best I've ever felt in my whole life."

>"I'd do anything for my friends and my team, all they'd have to do is say the word! Though I guess if I had to say anybody really changed how I behaved, it was really my friend Kieran who made me realize being strong can't fix all your problems. If I wasn't so focused on winning all my matches, I could have realized how bad a friend I was to him sooner."

>"I'm the luckiest girl in the whole world because I know all my friends will be there for me if I need it! Arven always shares his lunch whenever I forget to prepare anything, Nemona and Kieran are both about as strong as I am so there's nobody we can't beat if we work together, and Penny always warns me when I'm about to do something stupid. N-Not that that happens often!"

>"I wake up and try to stay awake during class, and once that's done I always make sure to get some practice matches in, there's no shortage of strong trainers where I'm from, course I always win though~. After that it comes down to just enjoying whatever's going on that day, doing some dance I saw online, visiting trendy stores, I spent so long resting in bed that even making the trek up the school staircases feels exciting sometimes! If something disrupts that, well, it's just another new thing to experience isn't it?"
